• Kanye West Says Big Sean Is "On God's Path," Was Responsible For Making "Blessings" Dark Sky Paradise's Second Single [WATCH]

    Big Sean was famously discovered by Kanye West in 2005 when the G.O.O.D. Music label head was in Detroit giving a radio interview. Sean ended up convincing West to listen to a few bars and two years later, he was signed to the label. The two have since worked together on songs such as West's "Mercy" and "Clique," Sean's "Marvin Gaye and Chardonnay" and "Whatever You Want," and Rick Ross's "Sanctified." Most recently, the pair teamed up for Sean's latest single "Blessings," which also features Drake. In a new video from Revolt, West talks to Sean about the changes he should expect in his career now that "IDFWU" has blown up and his album Dark Sky Paradise is on its way. West also appears to be the one responsible for having Sean put out "Blessings" as his second single.

  • Taylor Swift Sets Records with '1989' on Billboard 200, While Maroon 5, Ne-Yo and Grammy Nominees Resurge

    One week after a surge of new releases and the Billboard 200 has gotten back to the same ol' as Taylor Swift and 1989 reclaim the top spot on the charts. The album moved 101,000 equivalent albums as it earned its tenth week atop the Billboard 200 and the first time in three weeks. This makes Swift openly the second woman ever to have two separate albums that have spent at least 10 weeks at no. 1, with Whitney Houston being the other.

  • Grammys 2015 Best Pop Solo Performance Nominees, Who Should & Will Win: Sia Battles Sam Smith, John Legend, Taylor Swift & Pharrell

    The 57th Annual Grammy Awards hosted by LL Cool J will air live from the Los Angeles Staples Center this Sunday, Feb. 8 at 8 p.m. EST on CBS. We've examined the biggest categories and have put in our two cents on who we think should win and who we think will win each award. Vote for your pick in the poll at the bottom of the page. Sia's "Chandelier" is one of the only pop songs that instead of getting really old after a while actually gets better with time. Every new performance seems to bring out more layers. It's a truly powerful song that will stand the test of time. The range of notes Sia hits and the texture of her sound blows the other nominees out of the water. This song is also up for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Music Video, but Sia shines especially bright in this performance category. You can hear the pain in her voice, you can feel her struggle.

  • Sasquatch! 2015 Packs Lineup with Kendrick Lamar, Robert Plant, Lana Del Rey, Modest Mouse and More

    The Sasquatch! Music Festival has announced its lineup for 2015, once again avoiding "white whale" headliners but gathering appealing names nonetheless with Kendrick Lamar, Modest Mouse and Robert Plant (who we'll assume will be playing with his Sensational Space Shifters band, although the official poster doesn't say). The festival will once again take place over four days (as it did during 2011-'13) and will once again be held over Memorial Day weekend (May 22-25) at the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington.
