Oh snap! Someone missed their flight, LOLz!!

Christine Dominguez claims she contributed a substantial amount of work to the production of B.O.B. hit, Airplanes.

Unfortunately for her, she was completely cut out of the credit and payroll roster. And she's suing producers Kinetics and One Love for the lack of recognition.

Rolling In The Deep Was The Most Played Track On Spotify In 2011

Another win for the lovely Adele!

Her monster hit Rolling in the Deep was the most played song of 2011 on the music streaming site Spotify in the UK.

It just beat out Bruno Mars' Grenade and Rihanna's S&M.

This has been such a HUGE year for Adele! We couldn't be more proud of her. And we can't believe that it could be a couple more years before we hear new music from her! Waah!

Although, at least it will give all the other artists a fighting chance. LOLz!

Airplanes…With Hayley Williams And B.o.B. Lupe Fiasco?!

Filed under: Music Minute > Paramore > B.O.B.

Wow! It's crazy how much this changes the complete tone of the song!

Apparently, long before B.o.B. recorded his now-hit track, Airplanes, with Hayley Williams of Paramore and Eminem, his labelmate, Lupe Fiasco, was offered the song, and even recorded his own verses before ultimately passing on it!

Luckily, his version has leaked, and you can listen to it (above)!

Inneresting! There's obviously a lot more energy on the B.o.B. version…but there's something about the mood of this one, a sadness that keeps us hitting the re-play button over and over again!

It would been very cool to hear a finalized version of this on Lasers!

What do U think?? Which version do U prefer??

B.O.B Takes Aim At Odd Future For Homophobic Remarks

Many of you might not know who Odd Future is, unless you were at SXSW this year. They've been really hyped up, but we can't count ourselves as fans of the rap group fronted by Tyler The Creator after hearing some of his deplorable and homophobic lyrics.

In a song entitled Yonkers, the group spits out some horredous rhymes and at one point, targets B.O.B. with some really unseemly lyrics. The rap goes:

"I'll crash that fuckin airplane that that faggot nigga Bob was in."

Disgusting! Absolutely unnecessary to spew such hate.

As it turns out, B.O.B has also heard the group's song and has composed one of his own to response. It's called No Future.

Have a listen to it in the video (above). We think it gets the point across.

How's about a little more class in your act, fellas???
