Frank Ocean, one of the most enigmatic mainstream R&B artists the business has to offer, hasn’t released an official record in over 2 years. His debut album, channel ORANGE, transitioned him seamlessly from the quirky guy that sang on Tyler The Creator‘s debut album and Watch The Throne in the same year to the full-blown star that beat out Chris Brown and Miguel at the Grammy Awards. Since then, he’s been heard from in sparse intervals, and he’s made only 4 guest appearances–Jay Z‘s “Oceans,” Kanye West‘s “New Slaves,” John Mayer‘s “Wildfire,” and Beyonce‘s “Superpower”–on non-Odd Futurerecords.
Tink is by no way a newcomer. The Chicago emcee has been making noise on the underground scene for quite some time, but following Timbalnad‘s release of the original version to Rick Ross‘ “Moving Bass” record, which features the 19-year old emcee going back and forth with none other than Jay Z, she’s become one of the rap internet’s newest fascinations.

Sean Kingston has recovered quite nicely from a jet-ski accident that
almost claimed his life. The Jamaican singer joined friend Nicki Minaj
on stage in Miami at the American Airlines Arena during the Femme Fatale
tour! The two performed crowd favorite “Dutty Love.”
Jay-Z
was lucky enough to be in Yankee Stadium when Derek Jeter made history
and hit his 3,000th hit! Jay who was sitting in remarkable seats
captured Jeter hitting a home run of camera! Jeter is the 28th player to
accomplish the amazing feat.
Beyonce
headlined the UK’s Glastonbury festival this past weekend. Considered
England’s premiere music event, Beyonce made history as the first woman
to ever headline the show; her hubby Jay-Z did so just three years ago.
“The Dougie” was the breakout dance of 2010. Everyone from CNN’s Wolf Blitzer to your drunk uncle at the family reunion did it. Now the dance has apparently infiltrated the animal kingdom.
We stumbled upon this slow-motion video of a chipmunk that appears to be doing the Dougie. Now we know that the chipmunk isn’t actually dancing, just suspend disbelief for a second and have a little fun with it.
You clicked on the post, might as well finish what you started!
Juelz Santana teamed up with Lil’ Wayne in “Home Run” for what looks like another Nuvo sponsored music video. Naked women, baseball bats and never-ending raining money comprises the music video. Jim Jones even makes an appearance. Juelz was recently arrested on drug and weapons charges.
If you were disturbed by the macabre nature of Kanye West’s “Monster” video some enterprising video editors have taken to giving it a kinder, gentler makeover.
Since our very own Mec Jagger mashed up “Whip My Hair” with Sesame Street’s “I Love My Hair” we’re not surprised to see these reworks of “Monster” using the cuddly little devils from the Children’s Television Workshop. Who freaked it the best?
Several reports made this week have revealed that musician/philanthropist Wyclef Jean may possibly be considering running for president in his native country of Haiti.
Throughout his career Wyclef has worked on raising awareness of various issues in Haiti. He became one of Haiti's strongest supporters following the earthquake that struck the country earlier this year.
While Wyclef did recently share with CNN that he has filled out all the paperwork required to enter the presidential race, a statement made by Yele Haiti revealed that Wyclef has yet to make a decision on whether or not he will run.
“Wyclef’s commitment to his homeland and its youth is boundless, and he will remain its greatest supporter regardless of whether he is part of the government moving forward,” read a statement made by Wyclef’s organization, Yele Haiti. “At this time, Wyclef Jean has not announced his intent to run for Haitian president.”
Wyclef has yet to respond publicly to reports of his possible presidential run. The deadline for candidates to declare themselves in the presidential race is August 7.
