Busta Rhymes And Chris Brown Release Baffling “Why Stop Now” Video

Mon Jan 30 2012 by Becky Bain
Since Busta Rhymes helped propel Chris Brown's Grammy-nominated "Look At Me Now" into a full-blown hit, it's time for Breezy to return the favor and appear in Busta's "Why Stop Now" clip. The Hype Williams-directed video begins with a quote from none other than Sophocles, and in this ballistic four-minute adventure we see Rhymes transform into a locust and break the fourth wall of the Internet while a shirtless Brown gets out some pent-up aggression in a dimly-lit hallway. We didn't even get to the part where Busta turns into a lost member of the Fantastic Four at an Occupy Wall Street-type protest. Just watch below and experience the insanity for yourself. More »

Will.i.am went hard with Jennifer Lopez and Mick Jagger, but there are plenty more guest stars lined up for his forthcoming solo album #willpower. The Black Eyed Pea recently revealed quite an impressive list of collaborators — his "Big Fat Bass" lady Britney Spears, as well as Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, Swedish House Mafia, Shakira, LMFAO and Busta Rhymes. Oh, and there's more: “I made this song with Nicole Scherzinger that you would never expect,” he said, explaining that his collab with The X Factor judge may only be released online.

The "Drummer Boy" duo appear in a new promo ad for the NBA, because Justin Bieber is definitely the choice artist of the basketball-watching demographic, right?

For his forthcoming holiday album Under The Mistletoe, Justin Bieber transforms the Christmas classic "Drummer Boy" into a club song with a thumping dance beat. And he raps. And so does Busta Rhymes.

Chris Brown, Lil Wayne And Busta Rhymes Go Wild In “Look At Me Now” Video

Fri Mar 11 2011 by Becky Bain
Nothing too out of the ordinary takes place in Chris Brown's new vid for F.A.M.E. track "Look At Me Now" — after tagging some walls (he's really not letting go of that graffiti shtick), Breezy and his crew — including Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes — get freaky in a warehouse party, having a Step Up-type dance-off. How many more music videos can we take with the same concept? Do you know if any abandoned warehouses in real life prime for late night dance parties? If so, invite us.

Chris Brown Enlists His Famous Friends For His ‘F.A.M.E.’ Track List

Tue Feb 22 2011 by Becky Bain
We respect anyone who chooses not to forgive and forget Chris Brown assaulting Rihanna back in 2009 — but it appears as if most of the music industry has clearly moved on from the incident. (Even Rihanna has, in so many ways.) Brown's track listing for his fourth studio album, F.A.M.E., boasts such big-name guests as Wiz Khalifa, Lil Wayne, Timbaland, and — because he literally cannot be stopped from appearing in every corner of the universe — Justin Bieber. But will his fans be more supportive than they were for Graffiti? We'll find out on March 22 when the LP drops. For now, track list below. More »

Busta Rhymes Goes Hard On The Remix Of Kanye And Jay-Z’s “H.A.M.”

Tue Jan 18 2011 by Becky Bain
Busta Rhymes must have felt left out when Kanye West and Jay-Z got together for their dual LP Watch The Throne, but he's crashing the party anyway. Busta gets added their grandiloquent single "H.A.M." on the remix, dropping a verse so nimble and quick he could do voicover work for Micro Machines in the 80s. See if you can make out anything the rapper is saying in his 100mph remix below. More »
