  • 7 Hit Albums We Waited More Than 10 Years For (David Bowie, Sade and D'Angelo Have Nothing on Harper Lee)

    The world was pleasantly surprised to find out yesterday that Harper Lee, the Pulitzer Prize winning author of To Kill A Mockingbird, would finally be publishing her second book during 2015 after years of hiding from the spotlight. The new title, Go Set A Watchman, was actually written before Mockingbird yet is set 20 years following the events of her published book. It should be noted that Lee is not in the best of health, and some allege that publisher HarperCollins may have swooped in following the death of her sister and lawyer Alice Lee and taken advantage of the situation. We hope for the best, like what happened with the seven albums listed below, which were critical smashes when performers such as David Bowie, D'Angelo and Sade released them after decade-long spans.

  • Grammys 2015 Best Rap/Sung Collaboration Nominees, Who Should and Will Win: Eminem, Kanye West Duel

    Predicting hip-hop at the Grammys has been notoriously difficult, but the best Rap/Sung Collaboration category has been one of the easiest. Like the other categories in Best Rap Album and Best Rap Song, the Grammys go for star power, but with Rap/Sung Collaboration, they do not deviate from what the charts and the radio say is what the kids are listening to. The 2015 nominees are a little different, with inclusions from Common, Schoolboy Q and ILoveMakonnen with the assist from Drake, but otherwise star power rules the day. The argument of who should win and who will win will rage on long after the Grammys are over and is always divisive, but we took our best crack at it.
  • Kanye West Says Big Sean Is "On God's Path," Was Responsible For Making "Blessings" Dark Sky Paradise's Second Single [WATCH]

    Big Sean was famously discovered by Kanye West in 2005 when the G.O.O.D. Music label head was in Detroit giving a radio interview. Sean ended up convincing West to listen to a few bars and two years later, he was signed to the label. The two have since worked together on songs such as West's "Mercy" and "Clique," Sean's "Marvin Gaye and Chardonnay" and "Whatever You Want," and Rick Ross's "Sanctified." Most recently, the pair teamed up for Sean's latest single "Blessings," which also features Drake. In a new video from Revolt, West talks to Sean about the changes he should expect in his career now that "IDFWU" has blown up and his album Dark Sky Paradise is on its way. West also appears to be the one responsible for having Sean put out "Blessings" as his second single.
