  • Janice Dickinson Has Filed a Defamation Lawsuit Against Bill Cosby

    As if Bill Cosby didn't already have enough grenades to dodge, yet another lawsuit was filed against him this week by one of his accusers, Janice Dickinson. If you remember, the former supermodel came forward a few months back, claiming that the famed comedian both drugged and then raped her. Of course, Cosby has denied that it ever happened and in doing so, basically has alluded to the notion that Dickinson is lying. That is defamation of character and she's not going to take it lightly.

  • ASAP Rocky 'A.L.L.A.' Tracklist Surfaces: Kanye West, Future, M.I.A., Lil Wayne, Schoolboy Q, Mos Def & More Featured

    A tracklist for A$AP Rocky's highly anticipated sophomore album At.Long.Last.A$AP (or A.L.L.A.) has surfaced online (via HipHop-N-More). Their source is unclear, so we can't quite confirm that this is the official list, but it looks plausible. The 18-track album appears to be feature heavy, although the names listed could just indicate the producers who worked on the tracks. Present on the list are the previously released "LSD," "Lorde Pretty Flacko Jodeye 2," the Rod Stewart-sampling, Miguel and Mark Ronson-featuring "Everyday," and "M's," which has been bolstered with an Lil Wayne appearance. The single "Multiply," which dropped last October is absent from the list as is the song "The Beauty and the Beast," which was teased during his CRWN interview.

  • 60 Years of 'Maybellene': Chuck Berry's Hit in All Its Live Glory

    Chuck Berry took to the studio in Chicago on this date 60 years ago to record his first single for Chess Records...a little number called "Maybellene." It was a hit, reaching no. 5 on the singles charts, but more importantly, it's often cited as the starting place for rock 'n' roll, more so than any other song. Berry may have been one of the first to break from the blues into rock 'n' roll but he took something from his guitar forbearers, mixing things up live and not being afraid to toy with the formula, even for one of his most famous songs. Music Times looked through Berry's catalogue and found five different versions of "Maybellene" that have been dropped on official live releases.
