• Mackenzie Shivers "Orphan Song" - Exclusive Free Download From Her Album 'Neverland'

    Mackenzie Shivers was born and raised in Tampa, Florida, but is now a staple of the New York City music circuit. She began writing music at the age of four and studied classical piano at Vanderbilt University's Blair School of Music in Nashville, where she earned a degree in music composition and theory. From there she honed her craft into the folk-pop sound she has today. She's often compared to Joni Mitchell and '90s-era Jewel, but her piano-driven songs are very much her own style.

  • Marvel Comics News: Run The Jewels Lend Artistic Influence to Upcoming Issues of 'Howard The Duck' and 'Deadpool'

    Run The Jewels is far from the best-selling hip hop act from the last two years. Despite that fact, they're potentially the most culturally relevant at the moment, thanks not only to the critical acclaim that's been brought down upon its self-titled debut from 2013 and Run The Jewels 2 last year, but also the group's recognizable logo: A pair of amputated hands, one holding a chain and the other making a gun. That sort of recognizability has gotten them an honor that many an emcee can't claim: a Marvel comic book cover.

  • DMX Wants You To Know He Has 'Never Sucked A D--K'

    DMX has always been an eccentric character. Whether it is his sometimes offbeat raps or his somewhat head-scratching and at times public appearances, the life of DMX is never dull. With that voice anything can be made fun. This time around, DMX, real name Earl Simmons, took a moment during a show with Wu-Tang Clan recently to assure the crowd that he in fact "Did not suck d-k."

With such a fervent denial, there will probably be a lot more people who are inclined to think he does now

    DJ Mustard is on the track. The prolific YG collaborator who dominated 2014 with his club-friendly sound has gotten back into the remix game with a fresh new take on Beyoncé's smash single "7/11" from the platinum version of her platinum selling artist album Beyoncé. Mustard does what he does so well in giving the fun, upbeat, autotuned original a club-friendly makeover with more powerful drums, bigger chords, chops up the vocals to fit the structure of the song and adds his own "drop" with pitched, rising synths.
