  • Gucci Mane Releases 'King Gucci' Mixtape Featuring Fetty Wap, Migos

    It has been over one month since we had a new album or mixtape from the most prolific incarcerated rapper alive, Gucci Mane. However, Guwop has blessed up with a brand new, 10-track mixtape titled King Gucci today as a total surprise. His previous project this year have been dropped without warning, so it shouldn't be too surprising to see this one released how it was.

  • David Letterman's Best Hip-Hop Moments: Run D.M.C., Beastie Boys, J. Cole and More

    David Letterman has long been known as a lover of rock 'n' roll...all it takes to get the late night host on your side was to behave erratically or energetically onstage, which would almost certainly merit an "oh boy!" It took a little bit more to get the longtime host of the 'The Late Show' fired up for hip-hop however. To honor Letterman as he prepares to host the last night of his 33-year run on CBS (and to avoid conflicting with everyone else's list of the best performances ever on the show), Music Times has gathered up five great hip-hop performances that took place late night over the years, with almost all coming from emcees in Letterman's adopted hometown of New York City, including Run-D.M.C. and The Beastie Boys.

  • Zedd Celebrates 'True Colors' Album Release At Empire State Building

    Russian-born producer, DJ Zedd, real name Anton Zaslavski, released his sophomore album True Colors on Monday. Traditionally, artists have one album release party at a club or venue in a city that holds dear to their heart. Zedd put that memo in the shredder and did something totally different. In the 10 days leading up to the album's release, he had fans find clues in cities across the United States and those who collected them would be taken to a special location that night like the Grand Canyon or Alcatraz, for an intimate show with Zedd where he would premiere a new song from the album. On the album release, Zedd brought the 10-day party to a close in New York City, using landmarks like Times Square and Washington Square Park as clues, before leading fans to the top of the Empire State Building for a special acoustic show that night.
