Ahead of its September 24th release date, Drake is slowly liberating tracks from his third album Nothing Was the Same. Following the Wu-Tang-approved “Wu-Tang Forever,” the former Degrassi star took to Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to premiere “Too Much,” featuring Sampha, with a well-enunciated presentation.
On the first verse, Drake says that despite “stackin’ up like [he's] fundraisin’,” he won’t become complacent like most recording artists in his position. He also gives some backstory about his second home, Houston, and he references a few H-Town staples (Bun B, Paul Wall and Mike Jones) while doing so. Read More →
Frank Ocean and Iggy Azalea appear on the Nabil-lensed covers for Oyster‘s 103rd issue. Both images are monochrome—Frank’s is under-saturated while Iggy’s is over-saturated. The accompanying interviews are still in the vault, but luckily, we have other business to discuss with these two. Read More →
If you follow Chrissy Teigen on Twitter, you’re well aware the Sports Illustrated model is far from shy. If the revealing still above is anything to go by, the brazen beauty will appear topless in her fiancée John Legend’s new video for “All of Me,” a love-soaked ballad dedicated to her.
Evidently onlookers weren’t ready to see the lovely nip (see the uncensored photo here) because Chrissy took to her infamous Twitter account to defend baring her breasts in her husband-to-be’s Nabil-directed video. Read More →
Drake sort of pays tribute to the legendary Wu-Tang Clan on a track named after them on his forthcoming Nothing Was the Same album.
Ahead of the LP’s September 24th release date, the Noah “40″ Shebib-produced “Wu-Tang Forever,” which sample’s Wu-Tang’s “It’s Yourz” from their ’97 album Wu-Tang Forever, has surfaced. Lots of profanity is used throughout the track, which is totally shocking coming from this kid.

With Victoria Monet on the hook, Nas performed “You Wouldn’t Understand” on The Arsenio Hall Show before an audience consisting of rhythmless white girls. Life Is Good is in stores now.
A day prior, Mac Miller also appeared on the new late-night show to perform a mashup of “Aquarium” and “Avian,” both lifted from his Watching Movies with the Sound Off album. Read More →
Maybach Music Group, which includes of Rick Ross, Wale, Meek Mill, Omarion, Stalley, Rockie Fresh, is dropping the third volume of their ‘Self Made’ compilation series next week (September 17). Ahead of its release, MMG is streaming their entire album on YouTube. J. Cole, Pusha T and Yo Gotti are a few guest features. Read More →
Ryan McDermott is certainly on the wave of new artists that ‘got next’, but his latest offering, “Overflow,” just ain’t it. The beat is too busy and boisterous, and his delivery isn’t the smoothest.
Featured guest Sabi’s subtle and sultry approach to the track is much more fitting overall, but considering her role as a featured guest, she’s not around long enough to salvage the GOOD Music singer’s self-produced track. Read More →
“Brandy’s little sister lame and he know it now,” recited a skirt-wearing kilt-clad Kanye West last night on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Evidently Kanye caught wind of Ray J’s viral song, “I Hit It First,” and decided to change the original opening lyrics (“All them other niggas lame and you know it now”) of “Bound 2.”
Charlie Wilson salvaged what would have been a dull performance by a effortlessly singing the hook. The soul legend even added a few of his signature “shabba dabba tweet twee twees” in for good measure. Read More →
