• Willow and Jaden Smith's Wacky 'New York Times' Interview: Will Smith's Kids Talk Prana Energy, Music Together

    Jaden and Willow Smith's new interview with "The New York Times" is quotable, insightful and, at times, a little crazy. The two offspring of actor/rapper Will Smith have a lot to say about life, but they say it in a way that is fit for someone older and wiser. In the four years since "Whip My Hair," it seems Willow has been studying some really interesting stuff."When I look back I think, 'Wow, I did so much for young black girls and girls around the world. Telling them that they can be themselves and to not be afraid to be themselves,'" the 14-year-old said. "And I'm doing that now but in a whole different way, coming from [a] source [of] energy and universal truths."The two discussed their creative processes and how Jaden likes to piece things together as opposed to Willow letting the beat inspire her. They also like to collaborate, and apparently they view the partnership in terms of ... chocolate."Me and Jaden just figured out that our voices sound like chocolate together," Willow said. "As good as chocolate tastes, it sounds that good."The brother and sister also touched on Prana energy, because they know what it is, and related art to shocking people.

  • Faith Evans Planning Notorious B.I.G. Duets Album: 'One More Chance' Singer Calls Project 'The King and I' [WATCH]

    Faith Evans recently revealed that she is planning a duets album featuring her late husband, The Notorious B.I.G., aka Christopher Wallace. The pair last hooked up on the 2005 posthumous "The Final Chapter." Evans told HipHollywood that the project was inspired by Natalie Cole and Nat King Cole's 1991 effort "Unforgettable." It is tentatively titled "The King and I.""It's something I've been thinking about doing for many, many years," the singer told HipHollywood. "So I finally got all my ducks in a row to try and make it happen."As for what the album would contain, Evans offered this: "It is definitely unheard music. Unheard music in the presentation of it. That's what I will say."The project is still in its infancy, so there is not much to go on, but Evans does not specifically say there will be previously unreleased verses by Biggie on the album. If it is going to be in the same vein as "Unforgettable," then there will probably be edited remixes of Biggie tunes with Evans accompanying on vocals."I'm just getting into actually working on it," she added. "It's going to be really, really dope."Fans can expect to hear some music from the project within the next year.

  • Electric Zoo Releases 2014 Aftermovie [WATCH]

    Despite the third-day cancelation, Made Event's Electric Zoo has released its official 2014 aftermovie for the sixth edition of the New York City dance music festival, according to a press release. Taking place over Labor Day weekend, the festival played host to disc jockeys like David Guetta, Wolfgang Gartner, Nicky Romero, Armin van Buuren, Zedd, Knife Party, Laidback Luke, Danny Tenaglia, Sasha and many more scheduled to play Sunday, Nov. 23, including Jack U, Skrillex and Diplo's duo; Kaskade; Dash Berlin; and Alesso.The video is shorter then the long epics that have become the norm for many dance music festivals like Tomorrowland and Ultra Music Festival. It does not help that one-sixth of the festival was lost due to rain, notably with the most camera-friendly parts at night, but the festival went for the short and sweet aftermovie rather than a "sit down, grab your buddies, get the popcorn and watch this 30 minute video" type of aftermovie.

  • Skrillex Plays Celine Dion's 'My Heart Will Go On' on Piano at Mad Decent Boat Party [WATCH]

    Diplo's Mad Decent Boat Party just returned to harbor, and now fans and revelers are able to get back to the comfort of their homes and Internet connections and upload the videos to the World Wide Web for everyone to see. A video of note that has picked up traction is one featuring Sonny Moore, known to most as Skrillex, playing Celine Dion's famed and Grammy-award-winning song "My Heart Will Go On" on a piano before his back-to-back-to-back set with Flosstradamus and DJ Snake via "Dancing Astronaut."Skrillex was a part of the post-hardcore band From First to Last in his youth before he found electronic music and began his rise to dominate it. He was the lead singer in the band, but he is also a skilled guitarist, something we see in his recent "Let's Build a Spaceship" documentary with Red Bull.

  • Disclosure Deny Involvement in Band Aid Thirty 'Do They Know It's Christmas?'

    Disclosure and Band Aid Thirty are not on the same page. Band Aid sent out a press release today saying that among the many bands that were joining its current musical effort, re-recording "Do They Know It's Christmas?" to fight Ebola, Disclosure were to be part of the endeavor. This is not the case, according to Disclosure, whose representative told "Pitchfork" in a statement refuting any notion of their involvement with the project. The representative clarified the matter nullifying reports of an additional remix as well, saying, "No planned remix or involvement of any kind, unfortunately."Disclosure's name was listed on the artist page of the Band Aid 30 website. It has since been taken down, but the list of artists involved makes the missing of Disclosure manageable. The CD will have One Direction, Bono, Rita Ora, Sam Martin, Clean Bandit, Emile Sande, Bastille and Ellie Goulding listed among the star-studded cast of U.K. singers and musicians. The U2 frontman was a part of two of three pervious editions.
