There’s no doubt that Snoop Dogg knows how to celebrate 4/20. But the rapper has decided to prove himself yet again. Snoop recently announced that he will be releasing a novel, Rolling Words: A Smokable Songbook. Yes, you read right. A regular book would be too boring. So if you…

See Crossfade’s top ten 4/20 parties in Miami. In the days before ganja, Planet Earth was a boring expanse of mountains, flatlands, and water. But on the fourth day, there was weed, and it was good, and after 20 hits off the burning bush, man was hungry, and he filled…
Skrillex is on a speedboat flying through the Biscayne Bay. He’s on his way to commit mass murder at Ultra Music Festival where he will kill beats and cause a massive dubstep bloodbath. For now, he’s just another cracker tourist on the water in Miami. But soon, his massive legion…
Today must be a holiday or something. When we woke up this morning, there was a present from our dealer on the doorstep, containing ten types of weed named after rock, pop, and rap songs. It’s like the radio came to life and embedded itself in our bowls. So far,…
Life is incredibly unfair. Dick Clark, dead at 82. The thought of it makes us sick to our stomach. Is a world without “the oldest teenager” even a world worth enduring? While all hope may seem lost, we’re here to remind you that there’re still plenty of awesome reasons –…
This isn’t the first time you’ve seen Rihanna’s boobs. And it probably won’t be the last. RiRi has stripped down and freaked out an Irish farmer. She’s flashed her nipple rings in public. She’s even immortalized her fondness for sado-masochistic sex play. Basically, the pop star doesn’t mind giving the…
Oye, burnout! Did you know that 4/20 isn’t just a day for getting stoned? It’s also that time of year when millions of human beings all around the world light a plant on fire at the same time, fewer people get killed, and more food is cooked. Yes, the world…

If you’ve never heard of Akufen (AKA Horror, Inc., AKA Marc Leclair), we can’t really call you clueless. After all, the elusive Montreal-based producer rarely gives interviews and it’s been a minute since he’s even played in the U.S. In fact, his show at the Electric Pickle with Flight Crew…

Kanye West … The dude’s obviously troubled. And according to at least two exes, he’s got an awfully violent temper. If the rumors are true, Kim Kardashian may be dating a physically abusive mental case with a dangerously short fuse and a celebrity porn obsession. Worst of all, she is…
J. Nics has the kind of voice that always sounds cool. Gravelly and guttural, it’s as forceful and blunt as it is smooth and soothing. Fortunately, the rapper (appropriately nicknamed “Polar Bear Mack”) has something to say. The acronymic title of his latest mixtape, SNAS: The Product, stands for “Southern…
Whether you’re getting high this weekend with Yanni or kicking it German-style with Rammstein, stoners are in for an unforgettable 4/20.
