  • Diplo and Skrillex Talk New Music, Riff Raff and More on 'Ebro in the Morning'

    The New York City media tour has been quite busy for Diplo and Skrillex this week. Hitting non-traditional outlets for dance music disc jockeys — meaning not the blogs, magazines and dance radio — the duo went on different radio and TV stations throughout the day to spread the good word about Skrillex and Diplo. They stopped in at Hot 97 to chat with Ebro Darden on his radio show "Ebro in the Morning" about a variety of topics including Riff Raff, new music, their roots and more via Do Androids Dance.It is not often that you see two dance producers/DJs on a hip-hop morning radio show, but Skrillex and Diplo have become big enough to earn that honor. Ebro has been skeptical of Riff Raff, someone who Diplo signed to his label Mad Decent, and they both assure him about the seriousness of Riff Raff and agree he is a quirky, polarizing individual who loves what he does, which is what attracts Diplo to him.

  • 'Love & Hip Hop Hollywood's' Nia Riley Splits from Soulja Boy, Who Has Been Spotted with Karrine Steffans

    It looks like another couple from "Love & Hip Hop Hollywood" has bit the dust. After years of an on/off relationship, Nia Riley has finally gotten tired of trying to convince Soulja Boy to commit. Rumors of a split started circulating last week, and after Soulja posted a photo of himself with former fling Karrine Steffans online, Riley stepped up to confirm the breakup. Obviously this is one of those couples who flip-flops a lot, but maybe they are better off apart. Generally, if you spend years debating whether or not a relationship can work, that is your biggest sign that it is probably not going to.Ironically, on the last episode of "LHHH," Riley was getting ready to move in with Soulja but he found an excuse to postpone it. He was about to venture out on a two-week tour and he claimed not to want Riley in his house alone without security. He claimed it was a security issue and not a case of cold feet. We have to wonder about that now that we know they have split just a few months after the filming of that scene.

  • Electric Forest Set to Return to Rothbury in 2015 After Final Permit Approved

    The show must and will go on. Electric Forest appears to have cleared its final hurdle to return with the 2015 edition of the Electric Forest Festival at Rothbury in Michigan. Yesterday evening, the Grant Township Board gave the festival its final permit approval for a mass gathering permit with a split vote of 3-2, according to local paper Oceana Country Press.There had been a fear that the permit might not be approved, despite the festival signing a 10-year lease with the site to hold the festival on the grounds for another 10 years. The mass-gathering permit has to be approved each year by the town committee.The festival has been mired in legal issues recently, with battles occurring between AEG Live/Madison House, the owners of the festival, and dance conglomerate SFX, which recently acquired the land the festival presides on. After months of legal back and forth, which involved a lengthy court battle and many public comments, a judge ruled in the favor of SFX and the company's right to own the property.

  • NBC Honchos Divided Over Whether or Not to Fire Dr. Nancy Snyderman for Breaking Ebola Quarantine

    Up until recently, Dr. Nancy Snyderman was heralded as one of the top medical staffers employed by NBC. The network sent her to cover the Ebola virus in West Africa because viewers had come to trust her judgment, so it made sense for her to be one of the leaders when it came to educating NBC's audience.When Snyderman and her team returned, she claimed they were going to voluntarily quarantine themselves for 21 days just to be extra careful, said the "Hopewell Valley News." When Snyderman was spotted out grabbing take-out less than a week later in New Jersey, said the "Princeton Packet," the fallout was pretty explosive, and now weeks later the network's honchos are divided over whether or not to fire her for breaking her Ebola quarantine.At first NBC announced that Snyderman and her team would be given a few extra weeks off and return in November. Execs were hoping that a bit of time off would put distance between Snyderman and the scandal that had surrounded her.
