• One Direction Predictions: Harry Styles Next To Leave Following Zayn Malik, Says 'This Is Us' Director Morgan Spurlock

  • 4/20: The Beatles, Louis Armstrong and Fabolous: History's Most Notable Marijuana Arrests

    Few industries have been as supportive of the 4/20 holiday as the music business, considering how often our performers (and fans) seem to enjoy the subtle joys of marijuana. If you were around for Record Store Day during 2013, you may have witnessed just how early music fans will both line up and light up. Arrests for marijuana possession are almost a non-news item at this point: Rap performers Migos and Nelly have both been incarcerated for that (and a few other charges) in the last few weeks. The reason why those stories fail to shock us? Although the Reagan administration has been criticized for its "war on drugs," it focused on much more potent drugs while society has eased off on its fear of pot. Some states even allow it to be bought, sold and smoked legally. Here are five cases of musicians who served as martyrs for the cause before we as a society began to relax, including The Beatles, Louis Armstrong and Fabolous.

  • 2 Chainz Smokes A $10,000 Bong On 'Most Expensivest Sh-t' For 4/20

    2 Chainz, real name Tausheed Epps, is back with a new episode of his web series for GQ "Most Expensivest Sh*t." Typically he brings on a guest to help him try out whatever outrageously priced item is on the menu that day, but this episode is just Tity Boi and one of favorite activities. The "Birthday Song" rapper heads to Los Angeles to a high-end smoke shop where he finds some of the finest glass bongs and hookahs around because it is 4/20. The man helping 2 Chainz, named George, shows off a few of the more smaller pieces that run up to a couple hundred dollars, but Epps emphasizes he is there for the "most expesivist sh*t" and that is when George breaks out the one of a kind, $10,000 "Picasso of Bongs," the Armageddon.

  • Curren$y Releases 'Even More Saturday Night Car Tunes' Featuring Yo Gotti [LISTEN]

    Curren$y continues his impressive output with another edition of his Saturday Night Car Tunes EP series, updated to Even More Saturday Night Car Tunes EP. The 5-track EP comes on Spitta's favorite holiday as the New Orleans rapper gives his fans something to celebrate April 20 (or as he would rather call it 4/20). The slim, 5-track EP features the laidback, smooth sound one would expect from Curren$y and is largely devoid of features except for averse from Yo Gotti on "Do It For A G."
