We absolutely adore Mike Posner!

The man has this incredible ability of taking a song previously recorded by someone else, and making it completely his own when he covers it!

Ch-ch-check out the singer's acoustic performance with Blackbear of the Rick Ross, Drake, and French Montana collaboration Stay Schemin', which is actually samples a previously unreleased track from Nas (above)!

So rad! And actually kind of pretty, stripped down like this!

This just gets us all the more excited for his new album, Sky High!

How about U??

As Chris Brown continues to get more tattoos, his new album is coming out.

Fortune, due in March, is set to have a laundry list of collabs. Guests include will.i.am, David Guetta, Asher Roth, Wiz, Nas, and Kid Sister.

Sounds like this was a blast!

Check out the photos (above, and below) of Lauryn Hill and Nas performing a NYE show at EMM Group's SL Nightclub at the Shelbourne South Beach hotel in Miami Beach.

Sean Combs is sticking with Diddy.

At least for now.

A rep for the hip-hop mogul said that rumors of Diddy going back to Puffy are "completely untrue."

It was previously reported at an art book launch in L.A. that Diddy would switch to his oldest nickname.

So bittersweet.

As happy as we are to have new music from her, it's only that much more of a reminder that she'll never be able to make any more.

Check out the first song to debut from Amy Winehouse's upcoming posthumous album, Lioness: Hidden Treasures - which was compiled by producers Salaam Remi and Mark Ronson with the consent of the late singer's family - called Like Smoke, which also features fresh verses from Nas (above)!

Definitely sounds as though this one may have been recorded earlier in her career, during the Frank sessions, but her voice is as flawless and soulful as ever, and the rapping fits well with the tone of the track!

May Amy be at peace.

You're missed, gurl.

Wow! They're going to be giving Coachella a run for its money this year, no?!

The Lollapalooza Music Festival will be turning 20 this year, and by the looks of the just-announced line-up, they are celebrating by getting some pretty AMAZEBALLS acts to come and perform in Chicago's Grant Park from August 5th-7th!

Eminem, Foo Fighters, Coldplay, Muse, My Morning Jacket and deadmau5 are all expected the headline the festival, while a separate, dance and electronic music tent will feature performances from Girl Talk, Kid CuDi, Skrillex, and Afrojack, among others!

SOLID! We have a feeling this is going to be one hell of a weekend!

Check out the full list of acts…AFTER THE JUMP!

If this is true, it is beyond tacky!

It seems that Kelis' housekeeper claims that the singer stiffed her out of $900 in wages. And unfortunately for her, the maid cannot sue since she is an illegal alien.

The housekeeper made $150 a day for her work and cleaned one day a week. Kelis fell six weeks behind in her payments and owes her employee $900.

Considering Nas is paying her $25,000 per month in child support, we're not sure why she doesn't have the money.

The woman is trying to find a lawyer and explore her legal options to file with the California Labor Commission.

Just pay the lady!

This is random!
