When Chris Brown 's father, Clinton, first met Rihanna in 2009, she was "very respectful and polite as well." While his thoughts on the Unapologetic star has not changed, his opinion on their on-again, off-relationship has shifted. "I personally really didn't want [Chris] and Rihanna back together," Clinton Brown said to New York Daily News . "You have to have balance in a relationship. You have to have someone who is spontaneous and whimsical, but you also have to have someone who is grounded [...]
Jennifer Lopez says that her forthcoming Chris Brown collaboration will reference one of her biggest pop hits. "We were in the studio writing songs and getting that whole 'Jenny from the Block' flavor back on it, you know?" she said to Extra . "Jenny from the Block," her debut single off 20022s This Is Me... Then , was an all-around nod to her upbringing in the Bronx, down to its sample of Boogie Down Productions' "South Bronx." Earlier this month, pop starlet Becky G released a riff [...]
For Snoop Dogg, the making of Reincarnated was publicized as a religious experience. Shedding the violence of his Death Row Records days, the reformed Snoop Lion is a character his three children can idolize. "I can't believe I might be killing my community" Snoop reminisces over the slow burn of "Tired of Running" that features a duet with Akon that's smoother and nearly as intoxicating as chilled Henny and Hypnotic. Snoop tosses more dirt on his former gangster lifestyle on "Rebel Way", which finds the former drug dealer and pimp now professing the power of peace and love. [...]
Le classifiche di Billboard registrate tra il febbraio 2012 e il febbraio 2013 premiano su tutti tre artisti: sono infatti re delle nomination, con 11 categorie a testa, la cantante country e fidanzatina d'America Taylor Swift , i veterani Maroon 5 e i nuovissimi Fun , vera rivelazione dell'estate scorsa. Per il resto, anche i Billboard Music Awards non presentano chissà quali novità: i tre leader delle nomination sono tallonati da Rihanna (a quota 10), Carly Rae Jepsen (a quota 9) e gli One Direction (fermi a 8).

Sean Kingston has revealed the single artwork to "Beat It," his new song featuring Chris Brown and Wiz Khalifa . Featuring legs silhouetted through a keyhole, the artwork doesn't appear to reference Kingston's lyrics (or the Michael Jackson song , for that matter), but it may hint of what's to come for its respective video. "The video is crazy. We shot it at this fly big mansion, a lot of beautiful girls. It’s just the modern day Rat Pack. I’m 23, we all grown, so you really see us in a [...]
Oh, that Diplo! His BlackBerry must be ringing off the hook, right? The DJ-turned-superproducer has been impressively busy cutting tracks for pretty much everyone — and additionally, his company Mad Decent has cooked up a new publishing partnership with Dr. Luke (who just yesterday announced a first partnership with Scott Borchetta to launch artists at the intersection of pop and country), which means that now the only person with more influence than Diplo is Luke. And that's a good thing! Probably. Just remember, guys: With great power comes great responsibility. [...]

Tough break for highly grounded, humble and likable recording artists Will.i.am and Chris Brown : Their collaboration "Let's Go," taken from Will's upcoming album #willpower (hashtag willpower), bears a striking similarity to a track called "Rebound," from the house producers Mat Zo and Arty. A cursory listen to the two songs reveals that, well, yes, they do sound very similar, which probably isn't a good thing for Will's cause. As Arty tweeted: They never cleared rights through Anjunabeats, who's only one label, who [...]
Well if there was any doubt, after he repeatedly punched his then-girlfriend Rihanna in the face, repetitively against a car window, leaving her beautiful face looking like a Walking Dead cast member. If there was any doubt, after he childishly took off his shirt upon losing his temper after a Good Morning America interview and then proceeded to toss a chair into a mirror before storming out of the building. If there was any doubt, when he parked his car in a parking spot clearly labeled “Frank Ocean” and then after [...]
Let's Go , a single from will.i.am's forthcoming studio album #willpower , has garnered negative reactions from the the dance music community after being revealed earlier today. Featuring the vocals of Chris Brown , the track samples Arty and Mat Zo's Rebound , released back in 2011 on Anjunabeats . Whether due to poor production or the uncredited sampling, Let's Go hasn't been received well, with an 85% disapproval vote on YouTube . Take a listen for yourself as we've included both tracks [...]

The "Take Care" singer said that he once [...] Drake Slams Chris Brown, Says Rihanna Fell Into His Lap is a post from: RnB Music Blog
"I'm good. I don't give a fuck. Like, I'm good. My life is great," Drake said Friday on East Village Radio. "I'm excited about music, I'm in the best place I've ever been physically or mentally, I don't want shit. I don't care." Drake's conversation with Rap Radar founder Elliott Wilson began with his third album Nothing Was the Same , but like recent interviews with Chris Brown about his new album X , it quickly trailed off his relationships with other industry folks, good [...]
Oh, this whole Drake-Chris Brown-Rihanna thing may never go away. While in NYC last night, the Canadian rapper stopped by East Village Radio to chat it up with Elliott Wilson [...]
Drake has added fuel to the fire by talking about Chris Brown on Elliott Wilson's program on East Village Radio last night. "I make better music than [Chris Brown]," says Drake. "I am more popping than him. At one point the woman he loves fell into my lap." He continues: "His insecurities are the reason I make better music than him." Drake also confirmed that he'll be releasing two new songs next week, including a song that was originally intended to be a remix of 'Started From the Bottom', and that his new [...]
The rivalry between Drake and Chris Brown is well documented - in fact, just this week Brown's bodyguard filed a lawsuit against Drake over injuries sustained when the two musicians brawled in a New York City night club last summer. Appearing on Elliott Wilson's program on East Village Radio tonight (via Miss Info ), Drake did little to simmer tensions with a few uppercuts directed right at Brown: “I make better music than [Chris Brown]. I am more popping than him. At one point the woman he loves fell [...]
Everytime Elliot Wilson laughs in this interview, an owl commits suicide. His laugh is equivalent to a dog whistle that humans can hear. I'm just preparing you for the worst laugh on radio, as Elliot conducts the first full length interview with Drake since 2012. Everything from new music, the new album "Suffering From Success", Chris Brown, and more. Did i mention he ethers Chris Brown. I did enjoy his outlook on "Started From The Bottom", how the hood isn't the only bottom that can be depicted in hip-hop, but the bottom to the top of anyone with a dream. [...]
The lawsuits stemming from the big Drake-Chris Brown fight last summer just keep on coming. This time, it's Chris Brown's bodyguard Patrick Strickland who is getting in on the action. [...]
First, the particulars. The ball is apparently rolling for Fabolous as he preps his forthcoming album Loso's Way 2. Months following the release of his Chris Brown-assisted single, "Ready," the [...]
While recent rumors stated that Rihanna broke up with Chris Brown , the Unapologetic star took to Instagram to dispel the hearsay herself. In one photo (above), she rides around Brown in Los Angeles. The caption to another quotes lyrics from Brown's "Look At Me Now," as Rihanna flaunts her outfit of the day: "Yellow model chick in my yellow ass dress wit my yellow n-- X." Rihanna's photo only adds to the couple's confusing and contradictory statements about their relationship to press. [...]
