Wed Dec 14 2011 by Robbie Daw
This week, the Top 10 on Billboard's Top 200 album chart says goodbye to Coldplay's Mylo Xyloto and Rihanna's Talk That Talk (which drops out after only two weeks in the upper tier).

Eminem Has Both The Top Album And Single In The Country

Wed Jul 21 2010 by Robbie Daw
Today Rap Radar posted this image of Rihanna and Eminem on the set of the pair's "Love The Way You Lie" music video. Not that these two even needed to shoot a video—the single has now bumped Katy Perry and Snoop Dogg's "California Gurls" off the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart after the latter's six-week reign. This comes on top of the news that Em's Recovery retains the #1 position on the Top 200 Albums for a fourth week.  More »

Wed Jul 25 2007 by jharv

When Korn recently put out a clip for a parody film entitled Devolution: Nature’s U-Turn, they were apparently unaware they had kinda, sorta copped the longtime shtick of Ohio’s finest (non-Pere Ubu) rock band. Devo’s Gerry Casale, still as mordantly pissed-off as ever, told Rolling Stone that after Devo’s Web site made brief mention of the similarities, Korn fans came crawling out of the woodwork to talk their special kind of shit:

KoRn To Dig Own Grave, Release Covers Album

Fri Jul 20 2007 by mbart

The things you learn from reading the music press: 1) KoRn played MTV Unplugged, which they then 2) released an album of, and it includes 3) a cover of Radiohead’s “Creep,” which means Thom Yorke will now refuse to play it for a good five years or so. More »
