• Lil Wayne's Winter Wonderland

  The British tabloids are buzzing this morning that two football soccer stars have been banned by their team's management from attending a huge Christmas week party in Miami held by Lil Wayne and Akon. Whatever to this UK soccer saga, but this is first we're hearing of the party which the tabs (who are not known for hyperbole at all) are calling "the biggest hip-hop bash ever thrown." Supposedly, the bill for the gala is going to top £1 million (in American money, taking into account the streng

• Q&A With T-Pain, Performing at AAA on Sunday

  Many of today's hip-hop personalities and R&B royalty would have fans believe they've got the genuine Midas touch, but few in recent years can truly back that claim up. The Tallahassee-born T-Pain, however, is one of these chosen few. It's no wonder Akon snatched him up for his own imprint, Konvict Muzik, upon hearing his rendition of the impresario's single, "Locked Up," back in 2005.  Since then Pain has put singles on the Top 40 almost faster than Billboard can get to print, thanks

• Q&A With Keyshia Cole, Performing at AAA on Sunday

  She's landed four Grammy nominations, seven number-one singles, and two platinum-selling albums, all in only three years. Thus, it's safe to say Keyshia Cole deserves a place in that illustrious echelon of female artists known as Divas, though she may not realize it yet. But not the "get me my Evian" and "green M&Ms only" variety either -- the Tina Turner/Cher/ Mariah Carey kind (more Emotions Mariah than Mimi). But even the diva distinction doesn't quite cover Cole's achievements. Simply,

• Top 10 Pop Songs of 2008

  Pop music often gets a bad rap for being disposable or vapid, and in many cases that's true. (Katy Perry, Danity Kane and the Pussycat Dolls, step right up!) But every year, a few irresistible bits of innovative ear candy rocket up the charts and seep into our subconscious. The following ten singles saturated the Top 40 -- or what passes for hit-oriented radio in this topsy-turvy musical climate -- while proving that accessibility doesn't necessarily preclude creativity.

  And now it's time for the "I love you like a fat kid loves cake" memorial Worst Lyrics of 2008, March Madness-style tournament, this year a terrifying mélange of appalling oral-sex requests, bargain-bin philosophies, grammatical atrocities, and cringe-inducing pillow talk. To elevate the drama, I provided a trusted colleague with the 16 artists who qualified and had him assign seeds--Lil Wayne you expect to go deep into a showdown like this, but Lucinda Williams?

• Spin Magazine Names Lil Wayne Rock Star of the Year

  This one deserves to be debated for awhile. In a somewhat shocking proclamation, Spin Magazine, recently named current Miami resident Lil Wayne as Rock Star of the Year. It's a nice gesture but you've got to wonder if he's really earned it?Before everyone jumps and curses Spin for trying to stir up a little controversy, there are clear reasons on why Wayne is most likely deserving of the title. And it has nothing to do with his guitar skills (or lack thereof). For starters, Wayne's approach to h

• The Top 10 Most Preposterous Rap Songs of 2008

  Hip-hop A-listers including Rick Ross, Akon and Plies were caught grossly exaggerating their gangster credentials this year. (Turns out they were painfully law-abiding. The horror!) But even if your favorite rapper wasn't caught in a lie, you can bet he or she put out a hilariously absurd record or two in 2008. Here are the most preposterous rap songs of 2008. RICK ROSS, FEATURING T-PAIN "The Boss" (Def Jam) Though Rick Ross claimed on his debut album, Port of Miami, to know Manuel Noriega,

  Carmelo Anthony spoke with Prunk TV recently at a party in Miami. He was promoting his hip-hop label, Krossover Entertainment. Melo won a gold medal in Beijing last year, but who really cares, when the Miami Heat crushed the Atlanta Hawks like a bunch of grapes on Saturday. Dwayne Wade is really one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Doesn't Beasley look awesome with his new cornrows?

But with Weezy's ruinous rock album Rebirth in delay hell -- latest news has it coming out in November -- it's time to reassess the "greatest rapper alive" title. By that, we mean the best rapper right now, and offer a top ten tally (in no particular order) after the jump.Lil'

In fact, we think we found the actual picture the cake was modeled from: it's from when Wayne was front row at a Heat game.Pic from Flickr via Pitchfork.
