Demi Lovato has released her new song “Commander in Chief,” which is a clear diss aimed at Donald Trump.

On Monday, Ari Lennox released a new song called “Cognac Eyes.” She alerted her Twitter followers to this surprise development with a notice that it would be out in “20 minutes” on a “secret SoundCloud page” that her label (Dreamville) isn’t aware of. Seeing as how 20 minutes isn’t a very long time, she updated followers shortly afterward to […]

Logic‘s inner child is understandably stoked. According to TMZ, the newly retired rapper is now the owner of a rare first edition Charizard Pokémon card, which he reportedly purchased for $226,000 during a live auction. Trading card investment company CardHops reports it was a record-breaking purchase, as it is “the highest known sale of the card.” Logic sent a tweet to fellow Pokémon […]

TLC is a legendary group with one of the industy’s most compelling backstories. Yet, according to one-third of the group, T-Boz, the industry turned its back on the multi-platinum act following the untimely death of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes.  During a recent interview with Hollywood Unlocked, T-Boz expressed that the industry seemed to leave the group, then […]

Here come the girls! Rising London rappers Br3nya and Ivorian Doll have joined Bad B forces for new single “Bezerk”.

A Verzuz battle between Rae Sremmurd and Migos? Swae Lee seems down for it.

Host Teddy Mora said he wasn’t sure which hip-hop act would come out on top, as both groups have classic hits under their belts. Swae apparently agreed and suggested he and his […]
