• Even Fergie 'Got Sick' of Listening to The Black Eyed Peas During the Band's 'I Gotta Feeling'/'Boom Boom Pow' Reign

    The Black Eyed Peas ruled pop radio in 2009 with two wildly popular hits, "Boom Boom Pow" and "I Gotta Feeling." The group released one album following that period of stardom, 2010's The Beginning, before members pursued solo careers. Fergie, aka Stacy Ferguson, is arguably the most prominent member of the group, and she recently told The Guardian that it was tough performing those songs night after night.

  • DJ Mustard Remixes Beyoncé's '7/11': 'IDFWU' Producer Gives Club-Friendly Twist To 2014 Hit [LISTEN]

    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.

  • Keyshia Cole Shares 'New Nu' Music Video [WATCH]

    R&B star Keyshia Cole has shared the music video for her Mike Will Made-It-produced single "New Nu," which you can check out below. The video features Cole and her friends in a pretty intense boys vs. girls paintball match, intercut with some — pretty ridiculous looking — shots of Cole standing in front of a green screen with diamonds and hundred-dollar bills cascading in the background. It is not entirely clear what paintball has to do with breaking up with a man who has done you wrong, but we will take it.You can check out Keyshia Cole's music video for "New Nu" here:

  • YG & DJ Mustad Squash Beef on Instagram

    It seems as though having a beef with someone is more common then not in many music circles. A new one seems to start every day and can linger on for months, sometimes years. It is far easier to get in contact with someone you may or may not know with social media at your fingertips by just Tweeting at the person you have a problem with. Even with all of the temptation to start beefs and keep them going, sometimes differences get settled and that is what DJ Mustard and YG managed to do on Instagram.

  • Rich Homie Quan, Young Thug Guest on Nipsey Hussle's "Choke" [LISTEN]

    Nipsey Hussle's new mixtape, 'Mailbox Money,' is set to drop tomorrow, Dec. 31, but if that's too long for you to wait for new music, Nipsey has shared a new song titled "Choke" featuring Young Thug and Rich Homie Quan, which you can check out here. The song features some heavy-hitting, dramatic production from London On Da Track and opens with a lengthy sample of Samuel L. Jackson's climactic speech from "Pulp Fiction." The vocals don't seem to be mixed very well though and often rise uncomfortably far above the beat.

  • Nipsey Hussle Shares Tracklist For 'Mailbox Money' Mixtape, Featuring Rick Ross, DJ Mustard

  • YG & DJ Mustard Are Beefing On Instagram

    Apparently YG and DJ Mustard did not get the message about being kind during the holidays. The rapper and producer are now sending jabs back and forth on Instagram over purported payments that DJ Mustard alleges he never received for YG's debut album My Krazy Life. DJ Mustard executive produced the album that was released in March. YG posted an expletive-laden comment on a now deleted DJ Mustard post rebuffing those claims, making his own claims of not being paid for Mustard's recent album and the two have been going back and forth since then.

  • YG Shares Minimalist '2015 Flow' Music Video [WATCH]

    Compton rapper YG has shared the music video for his recent single "2015 Flow," which you can check out below. The refreshingly minimalist video features YG in a dark room with red and black walls, simply rapping to the camera in a single, unbroken take. As the camera gradually zooms back, it is revealed that DJ Mustard, the track's producer, is sitting on a couch throwing cash around — because this is a rap video, after all.You can check out YG's "2015 Flow" music video here:

  • Lil Wayne, Big Sean, More Drop Verses In DJ Mustard's "Face Down" Lyric Video [WATCH]

    Hip-hop producer DJ Mustard has shared the lyric video for his track "Face Down," featuring Lil Wayne, Big Sean, YG, and Lil Boosie, which you can check out below. The video basically shifts back and forth between two background images: a silhouette of a pole-dancing stripper for the chorus (of course) and a ton of neon-lit hundred dollar bills floating through space for the verses (of course). As for the lyrics themselves, let's just say that these aren't exactly the type of lyrics that deserve any extra attention, but here we are.
