Ricky Rozay is back and sexier than ever. Seems like all that baby talk with Rihanna has got his mind in the gutter. ‘Cause his new single from upcoming album God Forgives, I Don’t is a bedroom anthem for the ladies. It features a bump-n-grind chorus from the always tantalizing…

These two Canadian hacks are combining their talents as the world’s most-hated musicians to create the…
Rusko is the man. This English-born, Los Angeles-based DJ-producer is a veteran of the dubstep sound. He basically invented the upbeat wobble known as brostep. But that doesn’t mean he’s a fan. In a world full of bangers, Rusko just wants to bring the funk and the fairy wings. Recently,…
Despite all that “swag, swag, swag” talk, we always knew Justin Bieber was soft. But now we know he’s a totally wimpy, blubbering mess of a mama’s boy. And last night, he released a saccharinely sweet love song to his single mom, titled “Turn to You,” just in time for…
Twelve is a strange age. It’s a year full of awkward changes and uncomfortable levels of self-awareness. Pretty much no one’s got their shit together. Unless we’re talking about Space. This mainland nightclub has spent the past decade-plus perfecting its party mojo, working hard to become the embodiment of the…
Nicki Minaj is cool and everything. But when it comes to raw rapper women, there’s an even newer bad bitch in town. The sexy and slick-witted Australian import Iggy Azalea has been going viral with “Pu$$y”, her hit single and music video. Recently signed to Interscope, T. I. is even…

Justin Bieber has been such a little tease lately. He got us all worked up with his new grown-and-sexy single “Boyfriend.” But until yesterday, all we could do was fantasize about his new barely-legal moves and watch a few 20-second video clips. Finally, though, the official “Boyfriend” video has been…
Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. As a name for a one-man-dance-machine, it almost seems like a joke. Maybe that’s because Orlando Higginbottom didn’t expect it to be anything but a bit of fun. A few years ago, Higginbottom donned his first dinosaur costume searching for an amusing way to make the…

Our president is a real cool dude. Whatever you think of his policies, the guy can make a joke. And he’s got great taste in music. At the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, President Obama addressed the secret second-term agenda that’s got the Republicans so terrified. He said, “My first term,…
If there’s anything we’ve learned from the Men in Black movies, it’s that aliens are everywhere. They could be on the bus, in the break room, or even singing to us on MTV. Those movies always include fun little pop culture cameos and MIB III director Barry Sonnenfeld recently announced…
