  • 'See You Again' Gains AC Airplay; More Charlie Puth, No Wiz Khalifa

    Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's "See You Again" may be done at the top of the Hot 100, but it's just now picking up steam on the Adult Contemporary charts. This may surprise conservative listeners everywhere, as hip-hop is about as welcome on AC radio as Iggy Azalea at the BET Awards. The trick? Getting soulful crooner Puth to release his own version of the song, minus Khalifa's headlining raps.

  • LeBron James Signs With Warner...WB Trademarks 'Space Jam'...Do The Math

    Music Times recently named the soundtrack to 'Space Jam' as one of the most influential '90s music compilations, and now we may have a new film to consider nearly two decades later.

  • Dum Dum Girls Release Second Video For 'Coming Down,' Reissue 7" After Feature On OITNB

    NYC's Dum Dum Girls recently shared an unreleased version of their video for "Coming Down." Featured on Season 3 of OITNB, the single from their sophomore release Only In Dreams is a breathtakingly earnest ballad.

  • Michael Jackson Did Not Write 'The Simpsons' "Do The Bartman"(?)

    A piece of pop culture kinda-history has died as authoritative proof has come out revealing that no, Michael Jackson really did not write The Simpsons' classic "Do The Bartman." Original songwriter Bryan Loren (whose name has been on the track the whole time) sold off his publishing rights to the song, as well as a number of his other compositions. Considering the lawsuits the Jackson family has been bringing against AEG, you can bet they'd stick their legs out if there was a chance Jacko's estate should be getting royalties for "Bartman."

  • OG Maco & Boi-1da Clash Amid Meek Mill Vs. Drake Twitter Beef

    Once again, OG Maco is back causing a stir on Twitter -- this time, by chiming in on Meek Mill vs. Drake, which is already being crowned the "Twitter Beef of 2015" (and we haven't even heard from Drizzy). The ATL rapper first pledged his support for Meek, and then added a little more to the conversation. Soon, OVO producer Boi-1da got involved, and, "U Guessed It," they had a nice little back-and-forth. It's been a good day on Rap Twitter.
