  • Preview David Guetta, Afrojack and Nicki Minaj's Upcoming Single 'Hey Mama' from 'Listen' [LISTEN]

    With just eight days until the release of his sixth artist album "Listen," David Guetta has unveiled one of the most high-profile collaborations on the album with Afrojack and Nicki Minaj. The 1 minute 30 second preview for "Hey Mama" gives us a taste of what we should expect from the three frequent collaborators, via "Capital FM." David Guetta and Nicki Minaj have had success on previous Guetta albums with tracks like "Turn Me On" and "Where Them Girls At" alongside Flo Rida.Though Afrojack was not listed in the initial batch of collaborators on the album tracklist, it is not surprising to see his name on this album with how strong a relationship he has with David Guetta. "Hey Mama" has the pitched up dutch electro sound you expect from Afrojack, but catered to a pop audience that allows Nicki Minaj's vocals to flow over it and should make this one another big hit for Guetta.He recently spoke to "Rolling Stone" about the making of the album and the process of writing the songs.

  • Sir Mix-A-Lot Admits that Jennifer Lopez Was the Inspiration for Hit Single 'Baby Got Back'

    You cannot go online anymore without seeing some celebrity's butt. Kim Kardashian's recent photo shoot with Paper magazine damn near broke the Internet, and Nicki Minaj's "Anaconda" video stopped a few gentlemen in their tracks. Metal band Mastodon even got in on the fun as well with their video for "The Motherload." Gluteus maximus enthusiast/rapper Sir Mix-A-Lot still insists Jennifer Lopez wins for her booty, though. After all, she was the inspiration for Mix's hit "Baby Got Back."The rapper, whose famous tune was sampled in Minaj's "Anaconda," recently weighed in on the current booty trend, telling TMZ that he still favors his muse J.Lo.Mix talked to MTV in August about how Minaj came to use some of his butt-praising song for her huge single."I don't really know Nicki Minaj, but I can tell you this: Lazy, she is not," he said. "That girl works hard. I was blown away by her work ethic. She would hit us up, she'd be in the studio vibing, coming up with different ideas, making sure those ideas were cool. She'd call you back after a couple more hours."After the video came out that month, Mix was quick to put his thoughts elegantly into a tweet."Ok after watching @NICKIMINAJ Anaconda 37times I only have one word to sum up my feelings. DAMNNNNN!!!!!! #AnacondaVideoOnVevo," he wrote.Mix's girl J.Lo came out with a booty-centric video shortly thereafter. The 45-year-old singer ended up catching some flak for the clip, to which she responded, "You have to know that you don't disappear after you're 28 years old. You can be here, you can be vital and young and sexy and feel good about yourself."No word on how many times Mix watched Lopez's video.
