During her overseas promo tour through the UK, Nicki Minaj stopped by Tim Westwood's radio show and let the crazy out over the air. Listen to clips of the interview below, which includes Nicki venting about the reaction to her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.



If it's a mixtape and it was just for the fans, why didn't you make it a mixtape and just put out a cohesive album later on?

10ille - Candy Jams [FreEP]


I was blogging Chuck Inglish's WRKOUT and thinking about all the projects he's worked on this year when I realized I'd never shared 10ille's Candy Jams EP with my Gangstas family. How selfish of me.

I blast Candy Jams every time I step foot in my car, and it's because of two things: 1, I love to hear singers who simply sing whatever the music makes them feel with little regard for what's trending. Secondly, the production, led by Chuck Inglish, is the exact same way. Check out the precursor to the Bronx bred singer's joint project with the Cool Kid below, and accept my apology for keeping this to myself for so long.

Chuck Inglish - WRKOUT [New Beat Tape]


Chuck Inglish kicked the year of with WRKING. and now he's back with another set of instrumentals with WRKOUT. I've definitely found my theme music for the day in this beat tape, which includes twelve tracks which show off the versatility of the Cool Kid whose had quite the year so far. "Party Heart" is insane as well as "Agitated" and "Cold." Get with it.

Sabi ft. Wale - Where They Do That At? [Music Video]


Wale returns the favor as he appears in Sabi's music video to her new single "Where They Do That At?"

Asher Roth ft. Meek Mill - Party Girl


Asher Roth reveals "Party Girl," the first single from his Def Jam debut album Is This Too Orange?, which will hit stores this summer. The song samples Eddie Murphy's "Party All The Time," and what I find enjoyable about this one is that Meek Mill shows off his versatility by adapting to Asher's college party inspired vibe.



"Party Girl" will be available for purchase on iTunes starting 4/20. Smokers, write that down.
