Frank Ocean has been in the studio working on his next album (as he indicated in a recent interview on BBC). This track just hit the net and appears to be track that didn’t make channel ORANGE.

It should already be known that Kendrick Lamar isn’t the only rising star in his clique: ScHoolboy Q is working on his follow-up to Habits & Contradictions — titled Oxymoron — and it looks like we may see a track featuring the people in the above Instagram picture (taken by Brocky Marciano).
Marvell reveal their latest webisode as they continue to move the group’s career forward (aside from some studio action, nothing much really going on here). Can’t wait for The Greatness EP, which drops this week.
The show is called Wetten, dass..?, and aside from the cool performances, I have no idea what these German’s are saying. More clips below.

While performing at the Hammersmith Apollo in London, Kanye West decided to up his previous antics by ranting about various hot topics, including Justin Timberlake’s latest single that was produced by peer Timbaland and features cohort Jay-Z. Tt even sounds like he threw a little dig at Lil’ Wayne toward the end, when he asked the crowd to remind him why dudes only rap about “fucking another nigga bitch”:
During Kanye’s rant in London he said, “I got love for Hov, but I aint fucking with that suit & tie”

In this exclusive interview, rapper and entrepreneur Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson talks to the Wall Street Journal’s Lee Hawkins about his evolution as an artist and a businessman throughout the years and how he has dealt with the wealth, the fame and the challenges that have accompanied his success. He also speaks about Eminem, promoting Yuriokis Gamboa, Floyd Mayweather, Gamboa, the UFC, Manny Pacquiao, artist management, his boxing promotions business, his new album, and his philanthropic efforts to feed a billion children across the world.
The latest from Mr. Don’t Play. Still sounds fresh to me…from his latest mixtape.
Probably the last thing about 2013 All-Star Weekend that I’m posting, but T.I., Young Jeezy & Trinidad James threw a star-studded event which featured the likes of B.o.B, Tiny, Trae Tha Truth and more. Trinidad James looks absolutely hilarious.
I still can’t believe I’m saying this, but The Nacirema Dream will arrive March 26th.
From TMZ:
Hammer was booked and released from Santa Rita Jail in Dublin, CA after he was popped for obstructing an officer in the performance of their duties and resisting an officer.
But Hammer went on Twitter this morning and his version of events is shocking. He claims the encounter started when a cop tapped on his car window and asked him, “Are you on parole or probation?”
Hammer thought it was all a joke until “he pulled out his guns, blew his whistle and yelled for help.”
Hammer summed it all up by saying, “only thing more dangerous than a scared man with a gun, is a scared man with an agenda, a gun and a badge. I was citied for obstruction smh.”
If you know anything about Bobbito & Stretch’s legendary Hip-Hop radio show, then you know how big of a deal this is. They’re a little rusty, though….check out the audio below.
Unlike Wiz & Amber, reality star Kim Kardashian couldn’t keep her mouth shut about her upcoming child’s gender (or, she was paid handsomely for giving US Weekly the exclusive):
Start buying little leather dresses! Kim Kardashian and Kanye West just found out they’re expecting a baby girl, a source close to the pregnant reality star tells Us Weekly exclusively.
“They’re over the moon!” a source close to the first-time parents-to-be tells Us. “Kanye always wanted a girl.”
There was a press release that made it’s round on the internet; unfortunately, out late asses can’t seem to find it check that out here (or on Jezebel).
Anyways, the press release claimed that world-renowned artist/criminal Banksy was captured recently, and it appears it was a hoax.
From Business Insider:
There’s a press release making the rounds on the internet this afternoon saying that London police have arrested famed graffiti artist Banksy and revealed his identity.
Don’t believe it — the whole thing seems to be a hoax.
We just placed a call to London’s Metropolitan Police, who confirmed that the Banksy is still safely under cover.
And there are no reports about the alleged arrest on BBC or CNN, which both supposedly covered the story according to the press release on PRLog.Tellingly, the contact address for the release is an email address at the domain name www.iywib.com, a humor site (it’s currently down).
Check out some footage of Bobby Ray performing at Big Day Out in Australia (remember Odd Future’s ‘Big Gay Out’? Off=topic somewhat, but still humorous nonetheless). Shoutout to Childish Gambino.

Mathew Knowles talks to HLN’s Nischelle Turner about being a grandfather and Beyonce’s inauguration performance.
