The Weeknd, Beyonce, & Eminem Will Headline Coachella!

Every year I get excited about the Coachella lineup and every year I remember that I am not a rich hipster so I definitely won’t be able to go. As is life, right?

Last year Beyonce was supposed to headline but she was pregnant, so it was promised she would headline this year. So we already knew that, adding Eminem and The Weeknd is definitely a solid way to round out the three day festival.

There are of course other artists like SZA, Cardi B, Post Malone, Miguel, and many more that will be performing as well.

So you rich hipsters go and have your fun! I will live vicariously through Twitter.

What do you think of the lineup?

Eminem Is Nearly Unrecognizable With His Beard!

Know what makes me a little bit uncomfortable? Eminem having a heard.

There is just something so weird about it, I just can’t explain it. It’s probably because we always saw him with bleach blonde hair and clean shaven. To be honest I had a hard time accepting his dark hair.

Hopefully this means that he was working so hard on a new album that he couldn’t even be bothered to shave because his raps are so dope.

I am also positive that if Eminem walked by me with a beard, I would have zero clue that it was him.

Usually I am all about beards but I am going to be honest, Em you need to go back to being clean shaven!

Eminem & Justin Timberlake Help Raise Over $2 Million For Manchester Victims

(Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images)

I think that we can all agree that Justin Timberlake and Eminem are both superstars in their own right. They both have a ton of Twitter followers and their support behind something, like raising money for victims of the Manchester bombing, is a huge deal.

Well JT and Em collaborated in a way that wasn’t musical at all.

The two of them both tweeted links to a fundraiser that was set up to help both victims and families that were effected by the act of terror at the Manchester Arena.

After each of them shared out the link, there was a spike in donations and as of right now it is just over $2 million.

Of course we can’t just thank JT and Eminem for acting together and there are definitely many more celebrities tweeting out this same link, there was just such a spike after each artist posted it, you couldn’t ignore it.

If you would like to donate to the cause click this link!

Eminem Releases New Song “Campaign Speech”!

Eminem is back and he is back to his angry music! Yes! The last few albums that Eminem has released haven’t been my favorite but this song? I like this song, I can get behind this song. It’s pretty vulgar, but that’s Eminem.

Is this is best song? No, but it is very wordy, something that Eminem is known for. For years he has talked about politics in his songs look at “M.O.S.H” and “White America”, so it isn’t a surprise that he wants to speak out on this campaign.

How can one man make so many words work though? Words are Eminem’s thing, you can’t deny that.

Drake Brings Out “Greatest Rapper” Eminem At Detroit Concert

Instagram

It looks like all that hype that was going on about Eminem and Drake hating each other and wanting to put out diss tracks was all in the media. Last night Drake was in Detroit during his Summer Sixteen Tour and he brought out Detroit royalty, Eminem.

I am glad that these two buried the hatchet although it would be pretty awesome to watch these two try and battle it out. It looks like there is nothing but love here and absolute admiration by Drake.

Eminem was there to rap his verse on the 2009 song “Forever”, and then the crowd went obviously insane.

After his verse Drake said “Make some noise for the greatest rapper to ever touch a microphone”.

Did Nick Cannon Really Challenge Eminem To A Rap Battle?

HNHH– Nick Cannon is challenging rappers to come battle him for $100,000. His desired opponent: Eminem. Nick Cannon has been working his way back into the rap game, contributing a couple of songs to the “Chi-Raq” soundtrack and, more recently, teaming up with rapper ImAMovie as the NCredible Gang. He’s so confident in his mic skills, in fact, that he’s willing to challenge the game’s very best — most notably Eminem — for a lot of money. During a recent interview with British DJ Tim Westwood, Cannon announced that he plans to host a rap battle around the time of the BET Awards (June 26), with each competitor putting forth $100,000. He wants Eminem to be first in line. If Eminem accepts the challenge (which he almost positively won’t), it’ll be a continuation of a years-old rivalry that was most heated in the late ’00s and early ’10s. Mariah Carey provoked Em with “Obsessed,” and he came back with a ruthless diss track, “The Warning,” that, by extension, was of great offense to Nick Cannon, Carey’s husband at the time. A year later, Cannon responded with a diss track of his own that didn’t quite garner the same attention as “The Warning.” When Westwood asked him about their feud, Cannon didn’t seem to relay any animosity, though he affirmed that he’s still looking to go toe-to-toe with Em in the rap arena. “I’m still ready!” he exclaimed. “I’m trying to find him. Where is he?”

Is Nick Cannon crazy? Nick Cannon, the host of ‘America’s Got Talent’ and ‘Wild N Out’ wants to rap battle Eminem? Arguably one of the best rappers of all time. Before you get mad, I said one, not THE best rapper of all time.

If you forgot, Eminem and Nick Cannon have a weird feud over Mariah Carey who Eminem dated? Maybe? They had a thing, and then he hated her after their little thing went south. It is truly one of the strangest celebrity feuds of all time, but Mariah dissed Eminem, then Eminem dissed Mariah and Nick, and then he left it at that. Nothing more was said.

Can you imagine this though? Eminem would absolutely bury Nick. Is that even a question? Eminem can say like 500 words in a minute, Nick’s head would spin.

There is no chance in hell that Eminem would take this offer, at least I don’t think there is. He rarely does public appearances and I highly doubt he would chance that so he could be on a show with Nick Cannon.

Jake Gyllenhaal and Eminem surprised fans at a Southpaw screening in Detroit

The other night both Eminem and Jake Gyllenhaal showed up at a movie theater in good old Detroit to surprise fans at an early screening of the movie ‘Southpaw’. For those of you who don’t know Jake is the lead actor and Eminem actually produced the whole soundtrack of the movie, so clearly the movie is close to both the rapper and the singer. This also happened in Detroit because I am convinced that Eminem refuses to ever go to any event that doesn’t happen in Detroit, his home city.

Can I just say how jealous I am of these movie goers? Whenever I go to the movies I get to listen to people talk through the whole thing, usually see some cell phone lights that distract me as I sip on my soda that I snuck into the theater. These people get a visit from one of the greatest rappers of all time and one of the better actors of our generation.

Eminem looks so unhappy and sad, it is always weird seeing superstars from your childhood age and actually look old. It’s okay Eminem, you can smile and let the world know you are happy!

In case you haven’t seen the trailer here it is, it truly looks like an incredible movie and will be out in theaters on Friday July 24th!

Check Out Daniel Radcliffe Rapping Eminem’s ‘Real Slim Shady’ At Karaoke

Damn Harry Potter this is some magic right here. Look at Daniel just going out there and straight up killing it on the mic. Maybe he should have been a rapper instead of Harry Potter. Can you imagine that? What about a rapping Harry Potter.

Good job even though you couldn’t keep up with Eminem’s flow at one point, you did a great job Daniel! Keep the karaoke coming!

Mariah Carey Releases New Song ‘Infinity’! Is She Slamming Ex Nick Cannon?

Oh shit Mariah is back and ready to make heads roll! I mean I think that she learned a few things during her little fling with Eminem back in the day. I mean, Nick Cannon you better run because she is after you. Do I think this is Mariah’s best vocal work? No, absolutely not. Guess what though? Mariah is a fucking legend so it doesn’t matter. She could sing the phonebook and I would listen to her. She is one of the best voices of all time, she will get that voice back too, this is a great start though.

Know what I think needs to happen now? I am praying that Mariah and Eminem come together for a track and then get married. I think they were a couple that could’ve been great. You hear that guys? You have my blessing, so get on it.

Boy you actin’ so corny like Fritos
Wouldn’t have none of that without me, though

You tell ’em Mimi

Grammys 2015 – Complete Nominations List

As many people know, the Grammy’s are the biggest night in music and they are being held tonight! I personally can’t wait to watch the red carpet and see some of the catastrophes. I believe that Katy Perry will have something weird on, just a weird prediction. Taylor Swift will wear either a dark blue or a white, and then Justin Bieber will not even be there. Some of my predictions.

Last year I put together a list of who I wanted to win, who I thought was going to win, and who actually won. So right now I will pot all of the nominations, and predict who will win verse who I want to win! The bold will be who I think will win, and the italics will be who I want to win. Last year I did terrible, here’s to hoping I do better this year!

I also didn’t post every category because I know nothing about Latin music, contemporary music, or anything like that, sorry guys.

Album of the Year:
Beyonce: Beyonce
Pharrell: Girl
Ed Sheeran: X
Beck: Morning Phase
Sam Smith: In the Lonely Hour

I love Ed, I think that Ed deserves to win every single award that he is up for but the Grammy’s really love Pharrell. So my pick would be for Ed but I think that Pharrell will win for some strange reason.

Record of the Year:
Iggy Azalea ft. Charli XCX, “Fancy”
Sia, “Chandelier”
Sam Smith, “Stay With Me (Darkchild Version)”
Taylor Swift, “Shake It Off”
Meghan Trainor, “All About That Bass”

I have a weird soft spot for Meghan Trainor, I truly believe that she is incredible talented. I think that her sophomore album will probably show more of that than her most recent one. She can sing and will blow people’s minds one day. Sia will probably win though because her voice is insane and “Chandelier” is a really incredible song. So if either win I will be extremely happy.

Song of the Year
Meghan Trainor – “All About That Bass”
Sia – “Chandelier”
Taylor Swift – “Shake It Off”
Sam Smith – “Stay With Me (Darkchild Version)”
Hozier – “Take Me to Church”

Hozier will most likely not win, I am aware of that but his voice is absolutely insane. I love ‘Take Me To Church” so much I would listen to that and “Uptown Funk” on repeat for days. I am giving this one to Sia though. Honestly, I don’t care who wins this category because I like them all, I just hope Sam Smith doesn’t take it home, can’t stand him.

Best New Artist
Bastille
Iggy Azalea
Brandy Clark
HAIM
Sam Smith

Can’t lie I am not a huge Iggy fan of Iggy’s music but she deserves to win. She has dealt with people hating on her for absolutely no reason other than the fact she is a white, female rapper from Australia. I must say that I do like her during interviews so she seems fun.

Best Pop Vocal Album
Coldplay, Ghost Stories
Miley Cyrus, Bangerz
Ariana Grande, My Everything
Katy Perry, Prism
Ed Sheeran, x
Sam Smith, In the Lonely Hour

Alright, so I love Bangerz, I think that album was off the chain weird and incredible. Some of Miley’s songs were so heartfelt and incredible, can’t get it enough of it. Do I think the Miley has all the votes to win it? No, probably not, but she was nominated so that is awesome. I think that Sam Smith is going to win because everyone is obsessed with him, I personally hope he fades out after this Grammy hooplah ends.

Best Pop Solo Performance
John Legend, “All of Me (Live Version)”
Sia, “Chandelier”
Sam Smith, “Stay With Me”
Taylor Swift, “Shake It Off”
Pharrell Williams, “Happy”

John Legend deserves this award, the end.

Best Pop Duo/Group Performance
Iggy Azalea feat. Charli XCX, “Fancy”
Coldplay, “A Sky Full of Stars”
A Great Big World and Christina Aguilera, “Say Something”
Jessie J, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj, “Bang Bang”
Katy Perry feat. Juicy J, “Dark Horse”

I feel like this is going to Iggy’s year to win all the awards, unless she is against Sam Smith then he will win over her. I will say that “Say Something” deserves this Grammy. That song is the saddest song in the world. I could be in the best mood, hear it and then start to cry. That is what music is about right? It is supposed to move you to your core. So I am really rooting that A Great Big World will pull this one off!

Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga, Cheek to Cheek
Annie Lennox, Nostalgia
Barry Manilow, Night Songs
Johnny Mathis, Sending You a Little Christmas
Barbra Streisand, Partners

I an completely educated in this department. I know Babs is incredible so she will probably win but I love Annie Lennox’s voice, so I am hoping that she wins!

Best Country Album:
Dierks Bentley, Riser
Eric Church, The Outsiders
Lee Ann Womack, The Way I’m Living
Brandy Clark, 12 Stories
Miranda Lambert, Platinum

If Miranda doesn’t win this category I am going to start a riot. Just be prepared for that.

Best Country Solo Performance
Eric Church, “Give Me Back My Hometown”
Hunter Hayes, “Invisible”
Miranda Lambert, “Automatic”
Carrie Underwood, “Something in the Water”
Keith Urban, “Cop Car”

Carrie Underwood deserves this award, she could out sing everyone in this category but my only worry is people against religion. You know she is a very religious woman, the song is extremely religious, I feel like a lot of people would shy away because apparently its controversial. Miranda, you got this one in the bag…I would kind of love Eric Church to win though, I love his music. Honestly, whoever wins this I would be happy!

Best Country Duo/Group Performance
The Band Perry, “Gentle On My Mind”
Miranda Lambert with Carrie Underwood, “Somethin’ Bad”
Little Big Town, “Day Drinking”
Tim McGraw feat. Faith Hill, “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s”
Keith Urban feat. Eric Church, “Raise ‘Em Up”

Miranda and Carrie better win, or again I am going to riot.

Best Country Song
Kenny Chesney, “American Kids”
Miranda Lambert, “Automatic”
Eric Church, “Give Me Back My Hometown”
Glen Campbell, “I’m Not Gonna Miss You”
Tim McGraw feat. Faith Hill, “Meanwhile Back at Mama’s”

So I really love the Eric Church song “Give Me Back My Hometown” I feel like a lot of people can relate to it. Tim McGraw is basically a country king so I think that he will take this one home.

Best Urban Contemporary Album:
Jhene Aiko, Sail Out
Beyonce, Beyonce
Chris Brown, X
Mali Music, Mail Is
Pharrell Williams, G I R L

I am saying Pharrell will take this one home. Anyone could win other than Chris Brown. Remember that time Chris Brown beat Rihanna before the Grammy’s then wasn’t allowed there for like three years? Yeah, I do too, fuck Chris Brown.

Best R&B Performance
Beyonce feat. JAY Z, “Drunk in Love”
Chris Brown feat. Usher & Rick Ross, “New Flame”
Jennifer Hudson feat. R. Kelly, “It’s Your World”
Ledisi, “Like This”
Usher, “Good Kisser”

I hated this song but I don’t like any other songs nominated. I mean I guess I hate this song the least out of all of them. I would love to see Usher win but “Good Kisser” was a truly horrible song.

Best Rock Song
Paramore, “Ain’t It Fun”
Beck, “Blue Moon”
The Black Keys, “Fever”
Ryan Adams, “Gimme Something Good”
Jack White, “Lazaretto”

Paramore deserves this! They are a band that went from having a generally small following to being one of the biggest bands in the world. Hayley Williams is perfect, and this song was everywhere. Good luck Paramore!

Best Rap Album
Eminem, The Marshall Mathers LP 2
Childish Gambino, Because the Internet
Iggy Azalea, The New Classic
Common, Nobody’s Smiling
Schoolboy Q, Oxymoron
Wiz Khalifa, Black Hollywood

I would say Eminem deserves to win this but his new music is absolutely horrible, terrible, no good music. Childish Gambino has a very different way about him so I respect his originality. Iggy will win this though and everyone is going to lose their minds.

Best Rap Solo Performance
Childish Gambino – “3005″
Drake – “0 to 100/The Catch Up”
Eminem – “Rap God”
Kendrick Lamar “i”
Lecrae – “All I Need Is You”

I love Kendrick Lamar, I am all in with him on this one.

Best Rap/Sung Collaboration
Common Featuring Jhené Aiko, “Blak Majik”
Eminem feat. Rihanna, “The Monster
I Love Makonnen feat. Drake, “Tuesday”
Schoolboy Q feat. BJ The Chicago Kid, “Studio”
Kanye West & Charlie Wilson, “Bound 2″

Eminem and Rihanna is always gold, Common could win it though, I could see him winning this. If Bound 2 wins I am going to die laughing though. Go Ri though, Rihanna is my girl!

Best Rap Song
Nicki Minaj, “Anaconda”
Kanye West & Charlie Wilson, “Bound 2″
Kendrick Lamar, “I”
Wiz Khalifa, “We Dem Boyz”
Drake – “0 to 100/The Catch Up”

I am rooting for Nicki Minaj just because that song is so weird and bizarre, I like weird and bizarre. Kendrick should win though, I really hope that he does.
