:: CMT nominee Taylor Swift will be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, despite the fact she practically writes the same song over and over. [Just Jared]

:: Vulture gives a rundown of the most prominent rappers to tackle Hollywood, and see who has become more of an actor/rapper than a rapper/actor (though we think they unjustifiably leave off Kid Cudi, who is enjoying success on both platforms right now). [Vulture]

:: Want to know what Auto-Tuned cats sound like? Unsurprisingly, very much like Ke$ha. [Best Week Ever]

:: R&B artist Charles Hamilton wrote a 1000-word letter to Eminem, very much in the same vein as the obsessive-turned-suicidal fan in Em’s “Stan.” So basically, we should check Hamilton’s trunk right about now. [The Boombox]

:: Pete Wentz may not be joining heavy metal supergroups or readying a solo album like his former Fall Out Boy bandmates, but he’s keeping busy—the bassist, fashion designer, producer, husband, father and mini-mogul has added another job to his resume: director. Wentz helmed the music video for Train’s “If It’s Love” video, which you can check out here. [MTV Buzzworthy]

    Taylor does not write the same songs over and over. has anyone who makes these articles actually listened completely to both her albums? probably not! way to be completely ignorant. ACTUALLY, there are a lot of songs on both her albums that I like better than her singles, but it seems some people will never listen to them, so why are they judging?
