When the sun came up we were hoping we’ll have something nice to look forward to today and man, did we know our wish will be fulfilled! Deadmau5 and Kanye West got into a Twitter fight and from the looks of it none of them was holding back. It all began when Kanye West posted a picture on Twitter, in which you can see different tabs and one of them reads Serum (it is a VST synthesizer made by Deadmau5 ‘s friend and Steve Duda/Xfer Records). Basically, Kanye was trying to download the software and that’s when deadmau5 caught him. Which technically gives a point to deadmau5, can’t deny that. But the funny part; it kicked in when Deadmau5 and Kanye West exchanged some tweets which were more like funny and not mean. Here’s how it went down!
Kanye West recently released his new album The Life of Pablo; he talked about in on SNL (Saturday Night Live) and on Twitter but it’s not really about that. The next thing he tweeted is really what blew everyone away on Twitter. He claimed he’s in a personal debt of 53 million dollars and asked everyone to pray for him. His tweet said “please pray we overcome… This is my true heart…” along with, “I’m this generation’s Disney… I want to bring dope shit to the world…” but that’s just Kanye being Kanye.
I write this to you my brothers while still 53 million dollars in personal debt… Please pray we overcome… This is my true heart…
But the moment Twitter went berserk was, when Kanye West publically asked Mark Zuckerberg and Larry Page to invest a whopping 1 billion dollar in Kanye West’s ideas and mind you he’s actually got a few ideas ready. Here are a few things he tweeted and he’s still on fire. Tell us what you think about his Twitter breakdown in the comments section below.

Mark Zuckerberg I know it’s your bday but can you please call me by 2mrw…
We have no clue how 2015 just passed us by and we looked at it with our headphones on. Some of us had a great year and some of us were too busy looking and digging for great music. There’s no doubt about it that 2015 had some crazy ass music to offer and we’re still in the zone with our playlist. Now that 2016 is here, we think it’s time for a change in the playlist. And believe us when we say this, this year, the world of music is going to consume you for good. There are bands reuniting, bands making a comeback and the rest are just getting ready to leave you awestruck with their music.
Just a tip: keep a box of tissues handy because you might just cry out of happiness.
#1 David Bowie – Blackstar (January 8th)
Ziggy Stardust is returning with a new album and we’re sure the fans have been waiting for this one to come out. It’s probably the first release of 2016 and there are only a few days left to get your hands on it. Two singles from the album are already out and the album does look promising. It’s Bowie, of course!
#2 Daughter – Not to Disappear (January 15th)
The second album by the indie folk band, Daughter, from England is set to release soon enough. ‘Doing The Right Thing’ is the first single from the album and was out in September 2015. After a long wait, Daughter is ready with the album and so are we to give it a hear!
#3 Megadeth – Dystopia (January 22nd)
Music has got many Gods just like us humans, the only difference is we have actually seen them live. Megadeth hails from America and plays thrash metal, speed metal and heavy metal. Their new album Dystopia is coming out this month. The official video for ‘The Threat is Real’ is out and so is the audio for ‘Fatal Illusion’ the second single from the album.
#4 Dream Theatre – The Astonishing (January 29th)
The American progressive rock/metal band’s forthcoming album, The Astonishing (their thirteenth studio album) is all set to hit the shelves. The single, ‘The Gift of Music’ from the upcoming album was out on December 3rd 2015. Oh, also, The Astonishing will be a ‘double album’. That makes you grin, doesn’t it?
#5 Sia – This is Acting (January 29th)
The Australian singer and songwriter whose ‘chandelier’ had us swaying, is back with a new album. Four tracks from This is Acting the upcoming album are already out. ‘Cheap Thrills’, ‘Alive’, ‘One Million Bullets’ and ‘Bird Set Free’ tell us one thing and one thing only and that is, you have new tracks to dance to, especially when you are all by yourself. Sia just keeps getting better and better!
#6 Wiz Khalifa – Khalifa (TBA)
This one likes to smoke marijuana and make songs about it. No, we’re just kidding (not entirely), his track for Fast and Furious, ‘See You Again’, had the world shedding tears. And now he’s coming back with an album that his fans having been looking forward to. There’s not much information about the album right now but we’re sure it’s worth the wait! Hold on, Taylors!
Meanwhile, you can check out the song he recently posted on YouTube, ‘King of Everything’.
#7 Elton John – Wonderful Crazy Night (February 5th)
The 32nd album from the singer-songwriter, also, a living legend is coming our way soon enough. Elton John performed the title track back in December 2015 with the Elton John Band. Needless to say that Benie Taupin and Elton John wrote and composed all the tracks.
#8 Kula Shaker – K2.0 (TBA)
The English psychedelic rock band is set to come back with K2.0, their new album. The band is known for their interest in traditional Indian music, culture and mysticism. If you haven’t heard their music, you really need to get on with some homework. This band is not to be missed out on. For starters, you can listen to their tracks, ‘Govinda’, ‘Tattva’ and ‘Mystical Machine Gun’. Also, the new track, ‘Infinite Sun’, from their upcoming album.
#9 Kygo – (To Be Announced)
The one currently ruling hearts, minds ears and our playlists, it won’t be wrong to say that Kygo is unique with his music. His album which is still unnamed and the release dates are yet to be announced. We can’t do anything but wait and while we wait, we’d listen to his recent music that got out!
#10 Wolfmother – Victorious (February 19th)
We all have headbanged to this band! If you haven’t, you really need to put on ‘Joker and the Thief’ and it’ll will just happen. That song hasn’t aged even a bit. But that’s in the past, we’re here talking about new music and Wolfmother is getting us some with their new album, ‘Victorious’! Audio for three tracks from the album have been released and they kick ass! First one being the title track itself, the second one is called, ‘City Lights’ and ‘Gypsy Caravan’ being the third.
There are many more albums coming up but their names and dates are still to be announced and a few of them are making a comeback! Our excitement level has gone up by a couple of notches! Here’s the list:
VMAs have been and always will be a big deal for all the artists and same can be said for the fans. Like every year, there were things we loved at the big night and then there are a few moments that we just couldn’t digest. You sure as hell know now that this post is not about the goody-good things that took place at the VMAs 2015 but the complete opposite. Here are five things that made us got WTF at the MTV VMAs 2015!
#1 Miley Cyrus’ outfit like always
This year’s host Miley Cyrus had a lot in store for us but her outfits are not one of them. The pop star showed up with an outfit that barely had anything to show other than her body. Maybe she was dressed for the playboy mansion? *just kidding* Oh! We totally forgot that she supports the nudists (straight face).
Yes, the pretty boy got emotional after he performed his hit single ‘Where are you now?’ which also features Skrillex and Diplo and his new track ‘What do you mean?’. The singer has been maintaining a low profile for a long while and there could be no better platform than VMAs 2015 to let his fans know that he’s still in the game!
#3 Fresh cooked beef between Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj!
“What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj is not too kind,” said Cyrus. “It’s not very polite. I think there’s a way you speak to people with openness and love. You don’t have to start this pop star against pop star war… I know you can make it seem like, Oh I just don’t understand because I’m a white pop star. I know the statistics. I know what’s going on in the world. But to be honest, I don’t think MTV did that on purpose.” That’s what Miley Cyrus said when she was asked about the beef between Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj.
And Nicki Minaj had something to say to Miley, and we quote, “And now back to the bi*ch who had a lot to say about me the other day in press. Miley, what’s good?”
This doesn’t even surprise us anymore. We weren’t expecting anything like it but it happened and on LIVE television! Whoever watched VMAs 2015 had a moment of big broad smile or an ‘uh oh’ moment! Don’t deny that. You probably did rewind to see it again.
