• Action Bronson, Earl Sweatshirt "Warlord Leather": 'Mr. Wonderful,' 'I Don't Like S**t, I Don't Go Outside' Rappers Share Track

    Just when you thought this week could not get any better for hip-hop releases, Earl Sweatshirt and Action Bronson do even more to cap off their huge weeks. The pair has teamed up with noted producer and frequent Bronson collaborator The Alchemist on the bonus track "Warlord Leather." Both rappers released albums this week: Action Bronson made his major label debut with 'Mr. Wonderful' and Earl Sweatshirt dropped his depressingly titled 'I Don't Like Sh**t, I Don't Go Outside.'

  • 'RHONJ' Teresa Giudice Ignores Melissa Gorga From Prison as Feud Continues

    While we had originally heard that Teresa Giudice was trying to squash a lot of drama in her life before she turned herself in to the police, it seems the beef between her and Melissa Gorga is alive and well. For several seasons the main storyline on 'RHONJ' revolved around Giudice trying to bring down her sister-in-law any way possible. She hated Gorga for marrying her older brother Joe and worked hard to try and come between them. Finally, about a year ago the ladies seemed to agree to let things go, but that may have been all for show because now that she is locked up, Giudice has completely shut Gorga out again. The feud continues.

    T.I. has managed to maintain his rap career while acting in TV shows and movies in recent years.

  • Hudson Mohawke Releases 'Lantern' Single "Very First Breath" With Irfane: LP Features Miguel, Jhené Aiko [LISTEN]

    Hudson Mohawke has shared the first single "Very Last Breath" featuring French vocalist Irfane from his sophomore artist album 'Lantern.' The LP, which will be released in June, is set to feature the likes of Miguel and Jhené Aiko. The Kanye West, Drake and Rick Ross collaborator is set to release his first LP in six years June 16 with 'Lantern' after announcing it two weeks ago with a terrifying trailer. HudMo shows a new dimension with "Very Last Breath," giving his deftly crafted instrumental a more melodic twist instead of the minimal or hard sounds he has been putting together recently with a big, booming, off-beat bass line, pitched synthesizers and spacey arps. The track is topped off with vocals from Irfane, who was behind Breakbot's classic "Baby I'm Yours."
