We have some good news and bad news. The good news is Wiz Khalifa and his Taylor Gang crew are hitting the road this fall. The bad news… the Pittsburgh rapper has pushed back his second LP, ‘O.N.I.F.C.,’ again for the umpteenth time.

Veteran hip-hop mogul Chris Lighty died on Thursday morning (Aug. 30) from an apparent suicide. Details are scarce, but according to the New York Daily News, the executive was found dead in his apartment with a self-inflicted gun wound to the head.

After releasing the provocative ‘B—- Bad‘ video, Lupe Fiasco reverts to a softer yet earnest tone in his new clip ‘Battle Scars.’ The song is clearly for pop radio consumption with its yearning vocals from ‘Australian Idol’ winner Guy Sebastian.

As promised, Nicki Minaj plans to travel across the pond for her international Pink Friday: Reloaded tour in October. The trek is in support of her platinum-selling album ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.’

Wiz Khalifa has over a hundred tattoos on his body, and over the weekend he decided to get one more. The rapper showed off his latest ink — the Buddha’s face tatted on his left thigh — on Twitter.

Guess who’s back? Missy Elliott will drop two new singles next month, according to her longtime collaborator Timbaland. The veteran producer made the announcement on his Twitter page that Misdemeanor will release ’9th Inning’ and ‘Triple Threat’ in early September.

Wiz Khalifa has been hinting about this remix to his platinum-selling hit ‘Work Hard, Play Hard’ for a while now, and finally the rapper dropped the track on Friday (Aug. 24). Rappers Young Jeezy and Lil Wayne are on it sans Drake, who was supposed to be featured on the song.

After going bonkers in B.o.B‘s video for ‘Out of My Mind,’ Nicki Minaj finally releases a visual for the Hit-Boy-produced banger ‘I Am Your Leader,’ one of the standout tracks from her ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ album.

Alicia Keys is bringing the heat this fall with her fifth album ‘Girl on Fire.’ The R&B songbird unveiled the cover art of the album on her official website.

Chris Brown and Drake have been slapped with another lawsuit stemming from their infamous champagne bottle-throwing brawl at a New York nightclub back in June.
