• HipHopWired Drops 'Official' Rapper Emojis: Drake, Eminem, Future and More

    The NBA was recently rocked by several emoji-related news stories, including DeAndre Jordan's waffling between the Clippers and the Mavericks, and DeMarcus Cousins labeling coach George Karl a "snake in the grass" with the digital art. It's somewhat humorous to consider near seven-foot men tweeting like teenage girls, but we digress. HipHopWired took it in an entirely different direction when it decided to make an "unofficially official" listing of hip-hop emojis for most of the genre's biggest stars.

  • Deadmau5 Blasts David Guetta, Pacha Ibiza for Abusive Promotion with Horse

    Deadmau5 has rarely held back his opinion on any given topic, but he was especially brutal when addressing David Guetta, nightclub Pacha Ibiza, and the pair's use of a horse in a promotion during May. The response from the Toronto producer is late only because the offending imagery was just now sent his way.

  • Taylor Swift Feels Feelings, Shares Nostaligic Nick Jonas Picture After 1989 Tour Stop

    My oh my, what a long way they've come. There's no denying that Taylor Swift and Nick Jonas have grown up from their Disney days, but in an early Throwback Thursday post, we really get to see how our childhood favorites have grown up. After Jonas joined Swift at her 1989 World Tour stop in East Rutherford, New Jersey, over the weekend, the "Bad Blood" singer got all nostalgic on her Twitter - and we're right there with her.

  • Azealia Banks Announces First Proper North American Tour, with K. Michelle

    Much was made about how long Azealia Banks was relevant before she finally managed to drop the (admittedly stellar) 'Broke With Expensive Taste' during 2014, but no one has pointed out that the emcee has never done a proper North American tour either. That is, until now. The rapper announced that she and R&B vocalist K. Michelle would set out together during September for two months of American dates.

  • Was Zayn Malik's Twitter Hacked? Former 1D Singer Attacks Naughty Boy

    Zayn Malik and Naughty Boy's harmonious union may have come to an end. After leaving One Direction earlier this year, the former boy bander and producer have been notable friends and recording partners. But now, it seems as though the tides have turned. After Naughty Boy leaked a snippet of his "No Type" music video, Malik has seemingly attacked him on Twitter.

  • Chief Keef Announces Concert to Raise Money for Family of Dead Toddler

    It was another ugly weekend in Chicago as Chief Keef's friend and fellow Glo Gang member Marvin "Capo" Carr was killed in a drive-by shooting. Even more unfortunate, a one-year-old child was killed in the aftermath as the suspects fled the scene, running into the stroller carrying the the infant a few miles away from the initial crime. Even Keef, one of the most bleak emcees in the hip-hop world, has had enough. He declared a free concert in memorial of the child, Dillan Harris, to be held on July 17. He encourages attendees to donate to assist the family with funeral costs and other expenses.

  • Ryan Seacrest Signs 3-Year Deal with iHeartRadio, Worth $25 Million-Plus

    'American Idol' may be on its last legs, but Ryan Seacrest is still considered one of the most valuable people in entertainment. Even if his biggest television project is on the way out, his radio empire is still going strong, which earned the host/producer another three-year deal with iHeartRadio. The deal will ensure that Seacrest will continue to host over American Top 40 with Ryan Seacrest, On Air With Ryan Seacrest and his Los Angeles morning show with KISS-FM.

  • Meek Mill and 'DWMTM' Gets Another Week as Billboard 200 Shifts Dates

    It's an odd span for Nielsen and the Billboard 200, as the international (and official) album release date shifted from Tuesdays to Fridays last week. The next, regular Billboard 200 report should come next Saturday, however Billboard has tried to transition by running a report in the meantime that adds last weeks totals to the four days in-between official release dates. Music Times is trying to run things a little differently, by noting the Top 10 by actual sales during that period. Meek Mill comes out on top again.
