The hip-hop group is getting back together.
Legendary hip-hop outfit 2 Live Crew has officially reunited and plans to tour this summer, according to Rolling Stone . The group's MC Luther Campbell (aka Luke) confirmed the news over the weekend at the Sundance Film Festival, while promoting his latest short film The Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke . The Miami, FL collective, whose last release dates back to 1998, originally stirred up controversy in the '90s for their third LP, As Nasty As They Wanne Be , namely for its crude tracks ("Me So Horny", "The Fuck Shop") and [...]
The x-rated party makers 2 Live Crew have announced they'll be making a comeback this Summer. Luther 'Uncle Luke' Campbell broke the news during his appearance at the Sundance Film Festival while promoting his short film The Life and Freaky Times of Uncle Luke . "I just can't wait to just start practicing...some of the older people of our generation will be able to tell their kids, 'You're staying home tonight, we're going to see 2 Live Crew and shake our booty!"

Lots of good music hit your television screen since Friday night in case you missed out while hitting the sauce hard over the weekend. Cults made their victory lap on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (video via the Audio Perv ). Los Campesinos will be making their way to Denver at the end of the month with a gig at the Bluebird Theater, but played Letterman Friday night. Joanna Newsom took to Austin City Limits with her harp and angelic voice for a night in the Sherwood Forrest with a split episode with the princes [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , Between the Notes Getty, Asylum, Getty Although actors-turned-politicians like Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger get most of the attention, they're not the only entertainers to throw their hats into the political arena. Plenty of musicians have tried to bridge the gap between public performance and public service. Some have even succeeded. The latest musician to attempt this is Youssou N'Dour . The Grammy-winning Senegalese singer -- best [...]

Welcome September - Asides from back to school (for some of us, ha!) this week has been pretty uplifting between an electrified zoo weekend, and a fashion filled week. Maybe it's just a change of season, but there's something different in the air. The warm days of summer are starting to go away, but don't be sad my friends, chillin is for all seasons! Hangin' on the corner, lookin' real sporty Coolin' with the fellas while downin' a 40 Nothing to do, just killin' time [...]
Here is the first of five videos/songs that are incredibly wrong, offensive and very funny. If you don't like wrong and offensive please delete. Charlie Sheen & 2 Live Crew Star In The First Of A Five Part Video Series Leading to Debut EP Dropping September 8th Note: This is potentially offensive stuff if taken into the wrong perceptive mind. If you aren't into nasty hardcore sex humor and taking shots at everyone then read no further and click absolutely no links related to this. The unpredictable and highly entertaining rapper Dirt [...]

Hip-Hop Writer Extraordinaire Ben Westhoff makes the case for Luke's mayoral run in Miami, which is for real, by the way. I personally think Luke would be a great mayor, and I even bring a bit of expertise to this assertion. While doing research from my new book, Dirty South, I got a chance to spend some serious QT with him last year. After intercepting/stalking him at the Atlanta airport (long story), I traveled with him down to Athens, Georgia. Along the way, he embedded me [...]
Artists don't always make the best decisions. Perhaps they just get bored. Reinventing themselves after every album must get tiresome. I guess that's why some musicians choose to collaborate with people from other genres. Leaps of faith, even if they are doomed to failure, are more interesting than repeating the same old song and dance. Finding out the hard way that something is a bad idea is more exciting than going through the motions of what has been done before. Oftentimes though, it's best to stick with what you know. Otherwise you end [...]
Friday Five : \'frī-(,)dā,-dē 'fīv\ : On the sixth day of every week, I hit the shuffle button on my iTunes, then share the first five tracks and thought for each track. Sometimes there is a playlist involved, occasionally we'll have a guest, but most of the time it's just me. The rest is up to you, our friends and readers! Fire up your media player of choice and share the first five random track of your shuffle in the comments. The Five: Editor's Note: Another busy Friday [...]
First we have to sit down, drink some tea and not let ourselves fall into temptation because the slogans we have come up with for this campaign are too wild to mention here. Uncle Luke—the original Mr. Made-ya-mama-forget-her-morals and the man who probably has all the original celebrity sex tapes—is planning to run for mayor [...]
As a music fan, we already know that you follow all this stuff to avoid talk of boring politics. But here's a story even the most apathetic of voters must hear: Luther Campbell , rapper and former leader of 2 Live Crew, is running for mayor of Miami-Dade County, reports Prefix . Hey, Jesse Ventura got elected, so why not? Current Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Alvarez is facing a recall election slated for March 15th. In an interview with the Miami New Times [...]
I was certainly exposed to rap before He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper. Run DMC's Raising Hell, the Beastie Boys' License to Ill, even early 2 Live Crew (which truthfully frightened me). I think that DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince were able to bring it down to a level that a young, white, suburban [...]
I didn't pick up on this song as fast as some dudes. Probably because I was still so hype on One. However I haven't been as excited about Miami 2 Ibiza as I am right this second. Luny P comes through with a nice little edit adding one my favorite samples ever, Face Down/Ass Up, [...]
WHAT DO WE GET FOR TEN DOLLARS? It's official, this morning the internet is devoid of new and exciting music. So feeling slightly brow beaten by the dearth of ridiculous electro that's come my way of late I've been sniffing the undercrackers of my record collection looking for tunes that stand the test of time. Glorious musical interludes of such staggering beauty and exquisite composition they make grown men glisten at the tip and give the laydays a wide on. And what better place to finger than the 902s Miami Bass section where 2 Live Crew are [...]
