• Chief Keef Shares New Track "That Be Me" [LISTEN]

    Chicago rapper, Chief Keef, has rung in the new year with a new track for his fans titled, "That Be Me," which you can check out here. Keef doesn't so much rap as sing-speak with Autotune over YG On Da Beat's spacy production, which honesty sounds much better than most of the beats that Keef cooks up for himself. It's not clear if this track will ultimately appear on one of Keef's many upcoming projects or if it's simply a standalone single.

  • Angus Young Describes AC/DC's Signature Style: 'We Want That Big Sound' [LISTEN]

    Few bands have created and maintained a musical style for 40 years like AC/DC. The Austrailian rockers -- Brian Johnson, Angus Young, Malcolm Young, Cliff Williams and Phil Rudd -- took the signature sound established with former lead singer, Bon Scott, and expanded on it with albums like 'Back in Black,' 'For Those About to Rock We Salute You' and 'Black Ice.' Angus spoke with Rock FM recently about the band's brand of lean hard rock

  • Bravo Wants Cast to Sign Legally Binding Document to Avoid Violence at 'RHOA' Reunion

    Fans of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" most definitely remember the last reunion show, especially for that moment when Porsha Williams got out of her chair and physically attacked Kenya Moore. Suddenly the Bravo staple went from a reality show to feeling like an old episode of Jerry Springer and you better believe that the execs are going to do everything in their power to make sure that it doesn't happen again.

  • Ferguson Protesters Pepper-Sprayed After Infiltrating STL Police Headquarters

    We may have closed the book on 2014, but that does not mean the tension between Ferguson, Missouri, protesters and St. Louis, Missouri, police officers is over — not by any means. Instead, a group of 75 protesters proved last night, Dec. 31, 2014, that the racially charged divide is going to be an issue that follows us into this new year, 2015. The protesters served a literal eviction notice to St. Louis police officers late last night and many found themselves either pepper-sprayed or arrested.As part of their "March to the Arch" protest, several members of the group purposely went into the lobby of STL police headquarters and then proceeded to read off a list of demands and they posted hundreds of eviction notices on the outside of the building for alleged police brutality. Nineteen protesters were eventually arrested, primarily because they were laying in the middle of the road blocking the flow of traffic. The group had originally intended to occupy the area of the headquarters for four hours to commemorate how long Michael Brown lied dead in the street after being shot by Darren Wilson.

  • Garth Brooks Going Big during Record-Breaking 'Today Show' Appearance January 8; Does Performer Have Big Tour Plans to Announce?

    Garth Brooks had a fairly accomplished 2014: He released a new album, Man Against Machine—which we suspect may have gone platinum...if only his website would report digital sales for the album—and he also set personal concert sales records at nearly every venue he visited during the tour supporting that album. Now he'll start off 2015 with a bang, scheduled to appear on the Today Show on January 8, which itself will be of note because he's due to appear throughout the entirety of the four-hour program.

  • Sarah Jessica Parker Reteaming with HBO for New 'Divorce' Comedy

    Is it time for Sarah Jessica Parker to return to the small screen on a regular basis? Well, 10 years after the popular "Sex and the City" ended its six-year run on HBO, Parker is ready to do television again. She is also close to inking a new deal that would bring her back to HBO, the pay channel that was home to "SATC."The show that has sparked Parker's interest in returning to television is a comedy called Divorce. According to "The Hollywood Reporter":"'Divorce' centers on a middle-aged woman (Parker), who, influenced by her two recently single friends, impulsively brings up the idea of divorce with her husband but then can't decide whether to actually go through with it — until her husband discovers the affair she's been having and calls the marriage off."Parker would not only star in the potential half-hour show, but she would also serve as an executive producer alongside Sharon Horgan, Paul Simms, Alison Benson and Aaron Kaplan. The project itself must be well-done for Parker to even consider doing it because, inevitably, her potential work here would be compared to that of "SATC."
