  • Taylor Swift Sends Christmas Presents to Fans: 'Shake It Off' Singer Spreads Cheer for 'Swiftmas'

    Taylor Swift loves her fans. And to prove it this holiday season, the "Shake It Off" singer sent gifts to a lucky group of Tumblr followers, "Billboard" notes. This resulted in the social media phenomenon "Swiftmas." The presents were not too shabby, either. One fan received a camera, beauty products from Australia and $200 worth of gift cards.Rebecca Cox and Victor Vinson were two of the lucky fans. Swift even sent them handwritten notes about the gifts. Cox and Vinson have a Tumblr dedicated to Swift, which is how this whole thing came about, apparently. The singer followed them before her management team reached out."At 2 p.m. Rebecca messaged me screaming that Taylor Nation contacted us on Twitter, and they were basically asking for our addresses and our birth dates," Vinson said. "We figured either she's sending us packages, or they just want our information on file."The presents arrived a few days later, much to the delight of the fans — see below.

  • Best Original Holiday Songs That Fit an Artist's Style Perfectly: Mariah Carey, Joni Mitchell, Queen and More [LISTEN]

    I wonder if when Irving Berlin finished writing "White Christmas" he knew he had created a timeless classic. Holiday music has become its own little business, with artists often taking time out of their recording schedule to put together an album of covers and originals. It has become a bloated industry — every pop star and washed-up rock band has a holiday record. Sometimes they are really just mailing it in for a payday. Other times, though, they create something special. Mariah Carey, Tom Petty and Queen all have original Christmas tunes that fit right into their musical styles.You have to give props to those artists who dare to pen a Christmas tune. It is easy to just put a signature spin on something like "Blue Christmas" or "The Christmas Song." Those are already accepted by throngs of holiday shoppers who hear them every year. But what about Billy Squier thumping on "Christmas Is the Time to Say 'I Love You'"? Or Joni Mitchell's heartbreaking anthem "River"? You certainly hear those ones less than Frank Sinatra singing "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" while you are driving to work in December.These tunes are significantly younger than most holiday standards, so perhaps one day they will be thought of as classics. Until then, we will just call them good songs.

  • Derrick Carter, Legendary House DJ, Speaks On Cultural Smudging In Dance Music

    Over the past week, the hip hop community has been embroiled in controversy and debate over "cultural misappropriation" or cultural smudging," notably directed at Iggy Azalea the new white chick on the block. Everyone from Azealia Banks (of course), to T.I., to Lupe Fiasco to Q-Tip have weighed in on the topic, 140 characters at a time on Twitter. Derrick Carter, one of the original house DJs from Chicago, is looking to start that dialogue in dance music. As reported by The Fader, Carter shared his thoughts on his personal Facebook about how dance music has become noticeably whiter since its days origins as a gay and black genre.

  • Diplo and Skrillex Talk Jack Ü, MSG on NYE, NYC Club Scene and More

    Skrillex and Diplo are just a week away from the biggest show of their lives. On New Year's Eve, the duo, known as Jack Ü, will be headlining Madison Square Garden with the help of Rudimental, Yellow Claw and A$AP Ferg. The duo spoke with "Time Out" magazine in preparation of the show to speak about Jack Ü, the New York club scene and the aforementioned show at MSG.Even for a massive venue like Madison Square Garden, which can pack close to 20,000 people, Skrillex still holds the belief that it will "feel intimate and personal.""We don't have a real rock-star approach with security all around us. It'll be a party. We'll have lots of special guests come out," he says.Diplo adds, "You'll be hearing some of the Jack Ü songs we've done, live, for the first time. The artists we've cut the records with will be performing with us. Both of us take it very seriously; if you've ever seen us perform live, you'll know the production value is insane."He even invited the entire New York Knicks team to shoot warm-ups during their set. Unfortunately for Diplo, the team will be in Los Angeles for a game against the Los Angeles Clippers, but that is probably for the best since the team probably would miss most of those pre-game shots.Diplo gave an honest opinion on the EDM scene, proclaiming it "dead."
