• Rick Ross' 'Mastermind' may see release date as Diddy works on final mix

    Rick Ross' sixth studio album "Mastermind" seems like the record that will never actually come out. Initially due out a year ago, the record now has no release date more specific than "2014." However, Rozay fans need not worry: the Maybach Music boss is still working on the record. Now, he's in the studio working with none other than Sean "Diddy" Combs.

  • Rihanna working with DJ Mustard in studio for 'Unapologetic' follow-up

    It's been almost 14 months since Rihanna released her seventh studio album "Unapologetic," which is the longest amount of time the prolific pop star has gone without releasing new material. So as logic would dictate, it seems like the "What Now" singer is back in the studio to work on her eighth LP, and according to a new interview, she's collaborating with none other than club hit maker DJ Mustard.

    If there's one drawback to this era in Beyoncé's career, it's that new music videos are no real surprise.

  • Nicole Oran's 2013 Playlist: Jay Z, Daft Punk and Savages

    Music Times, like so many other music publications, was looking to publish a "Best of 2013" playlist. We met to discuss what such a playlist should include, and that's where we ran into trouble. We couldn't agree. Sometimes two of us just couldn't agree on whether the performer was amazing or terrible, and even when we agreed they were amazing, we couldn't agree on what track was most representative of their work. Hence it was decided that rather than try to agree (a seemingly impossible endeavor), everyone would get their own "favorites of 2013" playlist. We won't argue that these are necessarily the best tracks of the last year, but they're definitely songs that caught our respective attention and caused us to hit 'repeat" over and over and over again.
