Prior to all of Yeezy's predictable Grammy antics, he rattled off a rant against Nike onstage. Since he has an Adidas sneaker coming out, West decided to start the year off with a new beef.

  • Bob Weir Performs The Grateful Dead's "Truckin'" With John Mayer on 'The Late Late Show' [WATCH]

    Any true guitar enthusiast would be honored to perform with Bob Weir, frontman for the legendary Grateful Dead. Being able to play lead guitar alongside Weir means filling in a role that was once held by iconic axeman Jerry Garcia, and John Mayer was all for it last week during his guest host stint on "The Late Late Show." The pair collaborated on Dead tunes like "Truckin'" and "Althea."

  • Grammys 2015: T.I. Predicts Iggy Azalea Will Win Best Rap Album Award

    T.I. is no stranger to Grammy glory. The rapper took home the 2006 Best Rap Solo Performance for "What You Know" in addition to Best Rap/Sung Collaboration with Justin Timberlake for "My Love." He was also part of the big group win in 2008 for "Swagga Like Us." This year, T.I. is predicting that his girl, Iggy Azalea, will take home the award for Best Rap Album because of the commercial success she has had thanks to the effort. Overall, though, the Atlanta rapper thinks there needs to be some changes so the hip-hop community is represented properly.

  • Grammys 2015 Best Music Video Nominees, Who Should & Who Will Win: Arcade Fire and Sia Take on Pharrell Williams

    The Best Music Video category for this year's Grammys features an array of talent and some striking visual clips. These aren't necessarily the best songs of the year, or even the most well-known. These tunes stand out merely because a director was able to pair the melody with meaningful images. No, "Anaconda" did not make the cut. Neither did "Booty." Instead we have videos from Arcade Fire, Sia and Pharrell Williams that concentrate on shots above the belt.

  • 'American Idol' Season 14 Recap & Review: Group Performances Begin and One Chick Passes Out

    Hollywood week, as Ryan Seacrest noted at the start of the episode, is an "emotional roller coaster." American Idol judges Jennifer Lopez, Harry Connick Jr. and Keith Urban now expect everyone's best, even if that means performances that aren't technically perfect. We moved through the final solo performances into the much more exciting group displays. Contestants were forced to work out a song with others and stand out while putting together a cohesive performance. Sounds easy enough, right?

Fans of the rapper were able to watch Broadus's achievements on the field recently on "Snoop & Son: A Dad's Dream," an ESPN reality series. Broadus had narrowed down his choices to UCLA and USC, the latter being his father's favorite team. The young player chose the Bruins.

  • Grammys 2015 Best Country Duo/Group Performance, Who Should & Will Win: Tight Race Between The Band Perry and Little Big Town

    Bringing in featured talent for a country tune has increased in popularity over the past few years. This year's nominees in the Best Country Duo/Group Performance category are split between solid solo acts calling in their buddies and groups that conquered the charts with no assistance. Keith Urban and Eric Church collaborated on "Raise 'Em Up" while Tim McGraw brought in his wife, Faith Hill, for "Meanwhile Back at Mama's." Then there's the power duo of Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood on "Somethin' Bad." But the two big contenders here are Little Big Town and The Band Perry.

  • Phil Rudd Court Date Pushed Back to April: Former AC/DC Drummer Chris Slade Rumored for Grammys

    Phil Rudd's next court date, which was scheduled for the week following the Grammys, has been pushed back to April.

He was arrested in November on charges of threatening to kill and drug possession. A murder-for-hire charge was dropped.

  • Luke Bryan Is Caring for His Orphaned Nephew Following the Death of His Brother-in-Law

    Luke Bryan seems like a pretty nice guy. He has the whole good ol' boy vibe going for him, but he is also truly dedicated to his family. Last year, the country star missed the CMT Artists of the Year ceremony due to the death of his brother-in-law Ben Lee Cheshire. Now it turns out the singer and his wife, Caroline, have been caring for Bryan's orphaned nephew Til, whom Bryan took to the American Country Countdown Awards in December.

  • Grammys 2015 Best Rock Album, Who Should & Will Win: Can Ryan Adams Beat Out U2, Beck and The Black Keys?

    The Best Rock Album category isn't normally a big deal at the Grammys, which is really a celebration of everything pop. This year is a different story, though. U2 is up for the award thanks to their September release, Songs of Innocence, or better known as That One They Gave Away for Free. The Irish band caught a fair amount of criticism from iTunes users and fellow musicians when the album magically appeared in their digital libraries. That will be the big storyline going into Sunday for the Rock Album category rather than the fact that Ryan Adams, Beck, The Black Keys and Tom Petty all had spectacular titles to their credit in 2014.

  • Morrissey Cancels Iceland Gig Because Venue Serves Meat and Won't Stop

    Morrissey recently canceled a gig in Iceland because the venue he was scheduled to perform at sold meat, and it was not going to stop because the former Smiths singer was in town. The outspoken vegetarian and animal rights activist informed fans on the website True to You, where he generally posts all updates Moz-related -- and there has been plenty in the past few months. Because the Harpa Concert Hall refused to sell only vegetarian food and no other concert venues were available, the singer skipped Iceland on his tour.
