Who’s the motherfuckin’ Bawse? To Crossfade, it’s always been Rick Ross (government name William Leonard Roberts II), the 300-pound football-lineman-turned-corrections-officer-turned-street-rapper-turned-Maybach-mogul. He taught us to play 4-3 formation. He always emphasized the importance of hustlin’, even while earning $22,913.54 per year from the Florida Department of Corrections. And he showed us…
2 Chainz’s B.O.A.T.S. Tour With Trigg Da Kidd and Cap 1 Fillmore Miami Beach Monday, November 26, 2012 Better Than: No Chainz. Or even 1 Chainz. The doubters said 2 Chainz was a hardcore dummy with weak lyrical skills. But with the full fucking endorsement of Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj,…
Déjà vu! That’s right … Le Baron — everyone’s favorite, occasionally nomadic chi-chi French nightclub — will be popping up for another Art Basel Miami Beach week. However, unlike its last few visits to Basel on the Beach, the Parisian party spot won’t just be plopping down at the Delano’s…
What might’ve happened if the original Thanksgiving had taken place in Little Havana, a part of Miami known for its café cubano, delicious croquetas, and out-of-control feline infestations? Well, according to a theory put forward by Pitbull on Twitter today, we might all be eating “a cat instead of a…
Just a couple of chicos, hablando mierda in matching suits … Our homie Pitbull recently visited Jimmy Fallon’s casa (AKA NBC Studio 6B in the GE Building at 30 Rockefeller Center in New York City) for a lil’ late-night shit talking. The topics: Ancient Cuban wisdom, the experience of being…
It ain’t easy being Flo Rida, but it’s gotta be a “Good Feeling.” For the past five years, this self-described “international hustler” has kept his grind cranked to “Club Can’t Handle Me” levels, endlessly zigzagging between the studio, the gym, and arena-size stages. Since releasing his debut album, Mail on…
Carl Hiaasen’s native land ended up being the perfect place to chronicle corruption.
Speeding motorcycle, let’s speed smart … Because indie music legend Daniel Johnston just announced a very rare live show and installation of “original artwork” at Grand Central during Basel week. UPDATE According to Poplife reps, “a dj set by Devendra Banhart” has just been added to Johnston’s show at GC…
It ain’t easy being Flo Rida, but it’s gotta be a “Good Feeling.” And the positive vibes just keep flowing for the Carol City pop-hopper. Like, say, scoring the cover of New Times’ Miami People 2012. See also: -Flo Rida: Hit Maker, The Miami People Profile -Miami People 2012: The…
Where do the supercool geeks go when they just wanna siiiiiiing? Duh. The Let’s Sang party at Lester’s. Debuting tonight, this thang is being described as “karaoke for music nerds.” And it’s hosted by the fine ladies of Super Lips, otherwise known as DJ Oly and New Times own Liz…
Wanna ball like the Bawse on Turkey Day? Well, you’re gonna need a big fat bird. So go grab about 10 pounds of frozen fowl at Charles Hadley Park when Ricky Rozay and the Maybach Music fam give back by giving away free Thanksgiving food…
Madonna The MDNA Tour With Paul Oakenfold American Airlines Arena, Miami Monday, November 19, 2012 Better Than: Looking for Molly with MDNA at Ultra Music Festival. Three ingeniously slutty decades. That’s how long Madonna has been selling her marvelously meaty ass to the American public. And last night, the newest…
“Fightin’ fake motherfuckers.” That’s the 24/7/365 mission of self-described “Black God,” seriously mysterious dude, and Miami swag rap visionary SpaceGhostPurrp. So it makes sense that SGP and his Raider Klan homies would hook up with next week’s BKMIA Music Fest, a street-level stab at bringing “progressive Brooklyn and Miami musicians…
The doors haven’t even opened. And the staff is still being hired. But EDM superstar Kaskade has already been locked down for the beat-freaking New Year’s Eve party? Over the last few days, we here at Crossfade broke the news about Story Nightclub opening in the former Amnesia Miami space…
Don’t stay home. Come blow that hard-earned Hamilton with Crossfade. We’ll be tokin’ with Miami rap crew ¡Mayday! in honor of Tobacco Road’s 100th b-day. Then we’re gonna throw our drunk ass into the free punk pit at Fox’s Sherron Inn. And finally, we’ll gorge ourselves on Chocolate Sundays. Just…
On April 8, 1994, Kurt Cobain was found dead in the greenhouse above his garage at 171 Lake Washington Boulevard in Seattle. But even 18 years later, he remains the most vital icon to emerge from the whole overhyped and oversold ’90s grunge craze. Maybe Cobain really was “The Last…
It used to be Opium Garden and Prive and then Amnesia Miami. But as we here at Crossfade mentioned earlier this week, that fine piece of South Beach real estate at 136 Collins Avenue is becoming Story Nightclub in December. And yes, it’s definitely gonna be packed with “elite party…
You know what the Spanish-language music world needs? More LMFAO. And luckily, after douching it up with Mexican “EDM” boy band 3BallMTY at last night’s Latin Grammys, SkyBlu of currently-on-hiatus hip-pop visionaries Loving My Friends and Others revealed his new hobbies … Fucking with Latin tunes and Rosetta Stone. “I’m…
Sí, anoche, the 13th annual Latin Grammys went down in Vegas. Of course, Crossfade’s homie Pitbull was part of the hoopla, dressed in black tie, mugging with babes in hot-pink bathing suits, and getting it all started with a “Daleee!” … Even though Mr. Worldwide wasn’t actually nominated for a…
Do we want our kids fuckin’ wit’ Gunplay? That was the question when the Miami rapper and accused armed robber placed a surprise call to internet radio’s Combat Jack Show today. “I don’t make music for [children],” replied Mr. Play (born Richard Morales Jr.), still chillin’ at his crib on…
