Best Coast have often stridled the line between surf rock and '50s/60s piano ballads to great effect (see "No One Like You" off of their last full-length The Only Place) so it's no surprise they'd return to the sunshine-y crooning well on their latest EP Fade Away.

In what should be an absolute sh*tstorm of mopeyness, James Blake has remixed a song from Drake's latest album Nothing Was The Same (which was, apparently, nothing special).

Kanye West sat down for a long interview with Power 106 in Los Angeles. During the interview he touched on subjects that will be familiar to anyone who caught his Radio One interview: fashion, his status as an artist, dope shit, being the nucleus. However, Kanye did drop two big bombshells (one about his latest album Yeezus and the other on his engagement to Kim Kardashian). Read More »
