Miley Cyrus Says Her New Music Will Have Hip-Hop Elements
Get ready for some “hip-hop-leaning records” from Miley.
“There’s psychedelic elements, there’s pop elements, there’s more hip-hop-leaning records,” she told the publication. “You know, in the same way I like to kind of just be genderless, I like feeling genre-less,” adding how it will be “kind of a mosaic of all the things that I’ve been before.”

Miley has previously been called out for cultural appropriation, especially on her 2013 tape, Bangerz.
“I think we’re so influenced by the people that we’re around,” she explained on the topic of that specific album.
“And my community when I was working on Bangerz—Future actually wrote on ‘Love Money Party.’ Those are the people in my life that I was really around and in the studio with. Future is fucking amazing and has a lot of wisdom, too. Just listening to him and Mike Will, who was going to call his first record Made It from the Basement—the way they grew up was obviously so different from the way I grew up.”
Quavo Teases “Black-ish” Guest-Starring Role
This is yet another television role for the rapper.
For those of you who aren’t up on the Black-ish game, the show follows a suburban black family as they hilariously navigate being the only people of color in their social spheres. The show has covered controversial topics such as police brutality, the inclusion of Black History Month, the violent institution of slavery, and interracial relationships.
Quavo shared a photo of himself on the Black-ish set with the caption “B L A C K • I S H Coming Soon!!,” but fans will have to wait a little while longer if they want to get more details than that. There have been plenty of rappers who have turned into successful actors including 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Ice-T, Queen Latifah, Bow Wow, Andre 3000, Will Smith, Mos Def, Tupac, and more. Do you think Quavo is on his way to an illustrious acting career?
The Game Wows A$AP Rocky & A$AP Ferg With “Born To Rap”
The Game’s “Born To Rap” recording session continues to bring out the heavy-hitters.
“My A$AP n***as slid thru last night & I pressed play,” writes Game. “By the look on Ferg face, we got another CLASSIC.” While it’s not entirely clear whether Game put down vocals with the A$AP rappers or merely chopped it up, the caption seems to suggest a listening session of sorts. It’s easy to infer that Rocky and Ferg were mere spectators in this scenario, taking in Game’s project as fans first.
Yet the optimists among us can hold out hope for additional vocals, even if they come in a limited capacity. In any case, Game’s Born To Rap sessions continue to act as a gathering place for dope emcees and producers. Hopefully the rapper will yield more concrete information about the album in the days to come.

Kanye West Dyes His Hair Every Single Color Of The Rainbow
Kanye West tries out a new look.

On his way to the Yeezy office, paparazzi photographers managed to snap a few photos of the multi-platinum recording artist with a new hairstyle. This time, he transitioned to a full-on rainbow look, dyeing his locks in a variety of colors. It likely took a while to pull this off given how many tones are present. The back of his head starts with purple before gradually turning green, yellow, blue and more. If you look at him from the front, pink is the predominant shade on his head.
Fans have already started to joke about the new look with one Instagram commenter kidding that it was styled by Stevie Wonder. Personally, I find it cool that Kanye continues to find new ways to express himself. He’s turned his hair into sort of a painting over the last few months, using the canvas to try out a few different colors to match his mood.
Kendrick Lamar & SZA Refuse To Perform “All The Stars” At Oscars
The “Best Original Song” nominees don’t want any part of the Academy’s shenanigans.
As Variety reported late last month, the Oscar committee was forced to be more inclusive with the performing acts on the live telecast, after a host of big names voiced their displeasure with the existing “process,” which is indubitably a big part of the reason SZA and Kendrick Lamar pulled out, even though “All Stars” was part of the original mock-up.

Soulja Boy is fresh off the release of his song “On Gang” which features some fresh faces such as OMB Bloodbath, Peso Peso, Sauce Brazy, Yung Saint Louis, and Murdah Baby. Earlier today, he revealed that he has some big names that will be featured on his next project. Among them are some of his old collaborators as well as some new ones.
“I can’t wait to my album drop. Tory Lanez. Swae lee. Triple Redd. Bhad Bhabie. ASAP Ferg. Asian doll. Smooky margeila, chief Keef, money man, Nicki Minaj, Ronny j, Murda Beatz. Wow,” he wrote on Twitter.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like he landed the Tyga feature Murda Beatz suggested Soulja Boy get for the album.
Soulja Boy’s album, How Could You Blame Me? is set to drop on July 28th. Keep your eyes peeled for that.

R. Kelly’s Lawyer Compares Him To Beethoven & John Lennon
R. Kelly’s attorney is unhappy that the singer has to move out of his studio.
“Thru the years, history has admired creativity,” wrote Steve Greenberg. “Beethoven worked and wrote during the night. So did Freud, Tolstoy, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Edison, Elon Musk, and Churchill, amongst thousands of others.” Greenberg went on to note that John Lennon used to spend 24 hours a day in bed while recording. One thing that’s missing from his remarks: those people have not been accused of sexually assaulting countless minors.
The message is closed with a note that R. Kelly will continue to work on his upcoming album elsewhere. What do you think of his statement?
