• Princeton Students Launch Petition to Stop Big Sean Lawnparties 2015 Performance

    Apparently a few Princeton students are not happy that Detroit rapper, Big Sean, has been tabbed by their school to perform at their spring concert, called Lawnparties, later this month. Two students, Duncan Hosie and Rebecca Basaldua, have started a petition to try and get their Undergraduate Student Government to revoke its offer to the "Blessings" rapper. The pair has put up signs throughout campus quoting a line from Big Sean's collab with Nicki Minaj "Dance (A$$)," "If she look good she pay me in sex" and continuing further down, "Want to take this down? Take down Big Sean."

  • Skrillex Says New Album Coming "Soon": 'Recess' Follow-Up on the Way

    Seemingly always either on the road or working on music, though those are not mutually exclusive, Skrillex continues his impressive output of new material.

In a new interview with an unlikely source, the International Art of Bowling, the "Where Are Ü Now" producer revealed that he had a new Skrillex album coming soon.

  • Ranking Drake Covers, from Lykke Li's 'Hold On, We're Going Home' to Florence +The Machine's 'Take Care' and More

    Lykke Li covering Drake's "Hold On We're Going Home" has several media outlets excited today, although the song was first performed by the Swedish alt star during 2014. Naturally there's always a bit of interest when one prominent performer covers another from a different genre, but perhaps the homage to the Toronto emcee has piqued our interest even more because covers of hip-hop singles are rare...due to the mistaken idea that regular old vocalists can't convert raps to their style. Even if that were true, Drake makes for a favorable cover subject thanks to his blending of rhythms and melodies throughout. We gathered five Drake covers from the Arctic Monkeys to Florence + The Machine and more, ranking them accordingly.
