Best rap song??

Okay!

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis featuring Wanz just won Top Rap Song at the Billboard Music Awards for Thrift Shop because, well, it was one of THE biggest songs of the year!

Beating out Flo Rida, Kanye, and um, PSY, the two lovely lads took the biggest coveted award in the rap world, surprising the audience, we're sure. But, what was most shocking about the award was a coffee mug-holding Kid Rock's introduction where he made the comment:

"Let's give it up for people lip syncing to pre-recorded music."

Ouch! Was that a dig at Selena Gomez?? Is this a new celebrity feud brewing??

WOW.

With all of the emotional cast exits and surprise guest appearances on last night's season finale of Saturday Night Live, it would be easy to forget that Kanye West was performing at all!

But HOT DAMN, did our boy Yeezy make his presence KNOWN or WHAT?!

Actually, excuse us: we should now actually be referring to him as YEEZUS, as that it's been announced that this the name of the rapper's upcoming album, due out June 18th!

And for all the rumors about his new music being especially dark, gritty and aggressive, look no further for confirmation!

You can check out the previously-unheard Black Skinhead (above) as well as New Slaves, which he released by projecting the track on the side of 66 buildings in 10 cities worldwide…AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Kanye West may not have been having the best week - between the gay rumors, his latest temper tantrum, and a bruised up Lamborghini - but we have a feeling that with this weekend, all of that's about to change!

The sometimes-volatile yet supremely talented rapper has been hard at work recording his new album in Paris, and apparently, has few very creative, larger than life tricks up his sleeve for how he's going to begin its promotional campaign!

Which, of course, started last night, when he projected a video of himself performing his brand new single, New Slaves, onto the sides of 66 BUILDINGS LOCATED ALL OVER THE WORLD!

Ch-ch-check out to what the folks of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, were treated on the corner of Bedford and N. 7 (above)!

Apparently, the track features

Everyone knows that Kanye West's #1 fan is Kanye West (sorry Kim), so it should come as no surprise that the rapper loves listening to his own tunes — especially when he's shopping.

Earlier this week, Yeezy hit up the Atrium in SoHo for a little retail therapy, but to get him in the mood, he asked the store to pop in his new album.

Not wanting to piss off The Don, the Atrium happily obliged, and even tweeted:

This must feel like a second blow to the head.

Kanye West’s beautiful, $750,000 Lamborghini Aventador — that was trapped between Kim Kardashian’s gates on Tuesday, and no this is not a euphemism — was seen in Beverly Hills looking slightly less than perfect.

Ch-ch-check out the photo (below) for a closer look at the damage!

The car may not have feelings. But we sure do!

And this is just painful. Poor thing!

Ahh yes, a timezone crossing tour bus jet and different hotel rooms are JUST the types of places a newborn should be LOLz.

Yesterday we heard that Kanye West was potentially planning to go on tour in support of his upcoming "dark" album in the fall AKA mere months after Kim Kardashian is expected to birth out his progeny…

AND that Kimmy and the baby will NOT be joining him for the musical festivities.

However, new reports suggest that Kim and mini Kimye WILL be going on tour with 'Ye, and that Kim's already requested cribs and soundproof rooms be prepared in each hotel they might stay in!

Hmm! We wonder if this will conflict with any of her filming obligations? Although Kanye apparently doesn't want to involve their offspring in anything reality television related.

And who knows, maybe the baby will thrive from the constant chaos that is the tour of a celebrity humble music maker?

Orrrr maybe not.

Kim Kardashian's singing career never really took off after that infamous video- or her music video either! LOLz!

But here's something that's music to our ears- Kim's
