Kid Ink – Full Speed
Produced by J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, this one has a little bit of history: ‘Full Speed’ was intended to be the intro track to Rocketship Shawty but was removed after Machine Gun Kelly released ‘See My Tears‘, which uses the same instrumental. Anyways, you can check it out now; I think he should’ve kept it on the project, personally.

Beyonce Kicks Off Ad Campaign With H&M
Reported by Huffington Post:
Beyoncé continued her world domination today when she unveiled her highly anticipated H&M ads.
The Inez & Vinoodh-lensed snap from the summer 2013 campaign features Bey lounging in the Bahamas in printed shorts, a silky blouse, high-heels and bangles. Sounds like it was plucked straight from her closet, no? That’s because the star herself had a hand in design, so prepare yourself for plenty of bodycon dresses and embellished bikinis.
“I’ve always liked H&M’s focus on fun and affordable fashion. I really loved the concept we collaborated on to explore the different emotions of women represented by the four elements — fire, water, earth and wind. It was a beautiful shoot on a tropical island,” Beyoncé said. “It felt more like making a video than a commercial.”

You know, I wasn’t going to post this, but….what the hell: Future performed at the FADER Fort down SXSW, and while there he was more than happy to speak his love from the mountaintops:
She’s so professional and intelligent you wouldn’t believe it. Behind the scenes, her voice is so big and she’s so empowering. That’s why One Woman Army is going to be one of the greatest albums she releases. Because she took her time with it and overcame a lot.
