Unlike the “Jimmy Brooks” character he played on Canadian teen drama series Degrassi: The Next Generation, rapper Drake’s street credibility is virtually nonexistent. Rather than “gettin’ brain on Biscayne” last night, the 26-year-old pop-hopper allegedly shouted down an elderly basketball fan at the American Airlines Arena. And Miami New Times…

With EDM and PLUR on eternal overdrive in Miami, it’s easy to forget the city’s real musical roots. Before Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect, there were big, booty, bitches. The Magic City boasts its fair share of rap anthems that molded Dade County into a mecca for rump-shaking club hits…
Maybe the Biebz is terrified of photographers. Or maybe he’s just a douchebag. In the last week, Justin Bieber has flipped out on three different people in Miami who’ve tried to take his picture: (1) a fan using an iPhone after Monday’s Heat game; (2) a paparazzo who became the…
Ahoy, beat freaks!!! The bad news: Holy Ship!!! 2014 is sold out. The slightly less bad news: You can join a waiting list, just in case some weak-ass cruiser cops out and cancels his trip. And now the good news: Everyone’s favorite uhntz-uhtnz-ing high seas adventure has just announced a…
Flight School Preps know all about delays. They know the so-called “New Miami” hip-hop party started a few years ago. And their follow-up to last year’s breakout Expensive Dreams mixtape was set to drop in March. Now, two months after the planned street date, FSP’s Jay, Sly, and Reese have…
Justin Bieber is a thug. Well … At least lil’ homie’s trying his hardest. Lately, the Biebz has been publicly beefing with ex-NFL superstar Keyshawn Johnson. He’s been the subject of multiple reckless driving investigations by the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department. And he even allegedly spit in a neighbor’s face…
“Never break the chain!” Sadly, though, after we here at Crossfade implored you to “cancel whatever plans you’ve already made for Saturday, June 8, 2013, because Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks are getting the band back together” … Fleetwood Mac has gone and canceled on us…
L’enfant terrible better known as Justin Bieber sure had fun yesterday gallivanting around the cities of Miami and Miami Beach.

Yesterday near Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Inner Circle’s tour bus crashed into a highway cable barrier on Interstate 10 as the classic reggae band traveled to California to kick off its summer tour. A tire blowout was the cause. “Listen man, God is good,” cofounder and guitarist Roger Lewis tells Crossfade…
Historically, South Florida sports fans have been accused of being bandwagon jumpers. The ’95-’96 Panthers, the 2003 Marlins, UM in the 2000s, etc. But last night, an unlikely source proved that Heat fans ride-or-die for their squad when Flo Rida’s manager, Freezy, was ejected from the Triple following a courtside…
It looks like little Justin Bieber is all grown up, Biscayne strip club style. The 19-year-old superstar was spotted enjoying the Miami Heat game last night, as well as some of the more adult attractions in the 305. It seems the last few days he’s been blowing off some steam,…
The pop music industry is a lot like the porn industry. You’ve got throwaway faces with hot bodies ready to do almost anything for the fame and fortune. Honestly, a lot of the music videos coming out today might as well be porno clips. With the lines of decency so…
R.I.P., feminism, for we bury it on this day. The-Dream released a pornographic music video less than 24 hours ago. And almost immediately, it was pulled from YouTube for breaking the nudity rules. Thankfully, there’s Vimeo for all our prurient needs. The clip for single “Pussy,” featuring Big Sean and…
Each and every year, beat freaks become enraged when Ultra Music Festival’s early-bird tickets sell out. Like, instantly.
