On Friday, Beyonce was confirmed by "multiple sources" to be pregnant with her second child. Hours later she apparently took to Instagram to deny the reports, only to delete her sharp statement. "I can't stop the rumors from starting, and I can't really change peoples [ sic ] minds who believe them, all I can do is sit back and laugh at these low life people who have nothing better to do than talk about me," the post said.

I'm the first to admit that when I'm looking for new music the first place I turn to besides soundcloud, is thissongslaps.com. Last night, was no exception. At first, when I saw this exclusive from Notixx I was stoked. He played at the Blasted Events Warehouse show last week and absolutely killed it. So, of course, I jumped on the play, clicked the download and soon followed with a heart. "Fallout Flow," is definitely a track that gets your heart rate up and your blood flowing. From the snaps to the snares, to the builds, my heart felt like [...]
We consider it rather mind-blowing that the Fast and the Furious franchise has been able to get to 6 installations but crazier shit has happened in the world. How the hell do they make so many Saw films and keep people interested, oh well. What does make sense is that the producers are tapping into the hight energy tuneage of EDM Culture. Lessthan3 has more of the scoop, read below. As the high-water mark on EDM's permeation into mainstream media continues to rise, we reach a new milestone today, one in which [...]
Continuning to keep up the pressure, dBerrie's latest move sees him stepping up to bring his unique touch to LA-based rock foursome Imagine Dragons' recent single "Radioactive."

Channelling that sharp edge into his pounding drums and pulsing synths, dBerrie has crafted a peak-time production primed and ready for the Summer. The new remix continues what has been an outstanding year for dBerrie so far. With a steady stream of new music continuing to turn heads and a [...]
Alright, everyone. The rumors are apparently (supposedly!) true: Beyonce is with child once more. E! Online confirms via "multiple sources" that the singer (and mother to 25-year-old baby Blue Ivy Carter ) is pregnant, after speculation began swirling over some fairly innocuous stuff — she wore a dress with a high waist to the Met Gala (pregnant!) and then canceled a concert over "dehydration and exhaustion" (pregnant!). In all fairness, this does explain why her latest album era has completely failed to launch in any meaningful way, and [...]
American Idol 's 12th season wrapped up last night (May 16) with a finale that provided a solid ending to the latest run. The star wattage was impressive, with performances from Mariah Carey , Jennifer Lopez and Adam Lambert to name a few, all leading up to some real emotions when Candice Glover rightfully took the Idol throne. Welp, it turns out Americans didn't want to be bothered by any of it! According to Reuters , Thursday's finale brought in 14.2 million US viewers, [...]
Now that American Idol finished up season 12 , it's time for everyone's favorite pastime: speculating about next season's Idol lineup. We already know Randy Jackson is leaving , and if the rumors are to be believed, so are the remaining three judges. Before the next wave of rumors hits, though, it's worth noting how competing competitive singing show The Voice has managed to implement a more structured off-season game of musical chairs. Deadline reports that Christina Aguilera and [...]
Well hey, it's a new tune from Britney Spears ! It's not a new single from a new album (for that , fans have to wait for Will.i.am to turn on his sonic trash compactor ), but it is a very delicious little nugget from the soundtrack for The Smurfs 2 , a buoyant pop track titled "Ooh La La." With production credits from Bonnie McKee and Dr. Luke , the song arrives with the same pedigree as "Hold It Against Me," but where that track's popstep sound felt fairly robust, "Ooh [...]
Blue Frog Metal Nights return to the Mumbai venue after being absent for a couple of months, to host a night that will feature three metal bands that wear costumes of some sort or the other.

The single is called "We Can't Stop" and it'll premiere during Sunday's BBMA broadcast. The song is presumably off her new album, which arrives later this year. After all the teases about collaborations we can't believe we're finally going to hear new, Snoop Lion -free Miley. Head below to see Miley's tweet with the announcement. [...]

Bruno Mars covers this week's Entertainment Weekly for the mag's summer music preview issue. In keeping with the "jungle" aspect of the singer's Moonshine Jungle World Tour (which starts in June) , he's accompanied by a black leopard. As for what we can expect from his tour? "I don't think I would feel too comfortable like, wearing a harness," he joked to EW . "I want the music and the sound to be rockin', more important than the visual effects and tricks or whatnot. I don't want to get lost in that. I've [...]
Britney Spears is scheduled to start recording her new album with will.i.am next week, according to Will himself. The Black Eyed Peas frontman is executive producing the album and told Billboard before they hit the studio, "We've had these juicy sessions, where we've been bonding, building the trust and comfort. I've never worked like this before — not even the Peas." The multi-hyphenate previously said he planned to have several lunches with Spears to get a sense of the real Britney and "what she's [...]
Daft Punk 's Random Access Memories has apparently sparked a civil war within the world of dance music. First, the French Robots maligned the current state of EDM , essentially calling it unimaginative. Then Diplo responded with some comical critiques of the duo's new album via Twitter . Now British DJ Fatboy Slim has stepped in to defend the album. On Wednesday, Fatboy Slim told reporters, "I love 'Get Lucky.' I think it's a breath of fresh air after all that EDM, sort of Euro stuff, it's [...]
A lot of struggle and pain in the lyrics of Sister Canyon's single 'Headline.' Sometimes we all reach a point where we don't give a sh*t and that's exactly what lead singer Terra Lopez is conveying and then some. With lines like "So tired since the day I was born," we might have to give Lopez a hug when we see her. But even while she is apologizing for her mood, she is still unapologetic, "I'm sorry if I'm a pessimist, but these don't mean shit." Raw and real is the best way to describe the music of Bay Area [...]
If you haven't already listened to this crazy good remix, please stop reading right now and jump to the play button below. From Twitter to Facebook to Soundcloud, Baauer's remix has been making huge noise. Following his "Attracting Flies," remix he did for Aluna George's tune, I was curious to see how he'd take on Disclosure's "You & Me"... and he did not disappoint. This mix has gotten the signature Baauer makeover, giving the original electro pop track a little bit of an edge and turning it into an anthem you want to jump up and down to while screaming [...]
