Twenty-four hours after it was originally supposed to hit the Internet, Lil Wayne and DJ Drama's
Dedication 3 is now streaming from DJ Drama's site. There's also a download link hidden in the comments, although you'll a) need to wade through a bunch of "DA FUCK IS DA DOWNLOAD LINK!!!"-type remarks from other readers to find it and b) have to wait for Sendspace to get unclogged in order to get it.

Another track from the reissue of Rihanna's
Good Girl Gone Bad has leaked, and the fact that it's titled "Disturbia" makes me think that it was actually recorded for the 2007
Rear Window ripoff starring Shia LeBoeuf, but replaced at the last minute on the soundtrack by
Afroman's "Because I Got High" because of contractual issues. Listening to the song only solidifies that feeling, particularly since there's more vocoder on it than there is on a picture-edition 12-inch of Cher's "Believe." [
Pretty Much Amazing!]
Weezer's new single, the not particularly aptly titled "Pork And Beans," can now be streamed on the band's Web site. "Timbaland knows the way to rush the top of the charts/ maybe if I work with him I can perfect the art." Maybe a song that opens with a Rogaine ref can tap that Nickelback "Rock Star" market, but I doubt this desperate meta will prove more successful in the long run than those songs about young nerds wishing they could find love.
