• Mariah and Nick, French and Khloe, Calvin and Rita: 2014's Biggest Musician Breakups

    It's official: Ariana Grande and Big Sean have split as a result of their mutually busy schedules, touring and supporting new albums My Everything and Dark Sky Paradise. The pair had only been dating for eight months but they were one of America's favorite celebrity couples during that span.

Music Times is going back to 2014 and ranking the year's biggest musician splits—from Mariah Carey to Katy Perry and Khloe Kardashian—in terms of how heavily it impacted tabloid and media coverage.

  • Alice Glass Responds To Crystal Castles' Ethan Kath Underhanded Remarks

  • 4/20: The Beatles, Louis Armstrong and Fabolous: History's Most Notable Marijuana Arrests

    Few industries have been as supportive of the 4/20 holiday as the music business, considering how often our performers (and fans) seem to enjoy the subtle joys of marijuana. If you were around for Record Store Day during 2013, you may have witnessed just how early music fans will both line up and light up. Arrests for marijuana possession are almost a non-news item at this point: Rap performers Migos and Nelly have both been incarcerated for that (and a few other charges) in the last few weeks. The reason why those stories fail to shock us? Although the Reagan administration has been criticized for its "war on drugs," it focused on much more potent drugs while society has eased off on its fear of pot. Some states even allow it to be bought, sold and smoked legally. Here are five cases of musicians who served as martyrs for the cause before we as a society began to relax, including The Beatles, Louis Armstrong and Fabolous.

The "Birthday Song" rapper heads to Los Angeles to a high-end smoke shop where he finds some of the finest glass bongs and hookahs around because it is 4/20. The man helping 2 Chainz, named George, shows off a few of the more smaller pieces that run up to a couple hundred dollars, but Epps emphasizes he is there for the "most expesivist sh*t" and that is when George breaks out the one of a kind, $10,000 "Picasso of Bongs," the Armageddon.
