So, if you skimmed through some websites yesterday or not, you’ve possibly caught wind of this shocking news of an apparent reunion between former item, Chris Brown and Rihanna, which will occur on wax via the remix of RiRi’s “Birthday Cake” single. As Huff Post reported, per Miss Info’s site, the song is expected to arrive somewhere next week–and even more surprising on Ri’s 24th birthday: February 20th. Upon the news shocking the blogosphere, and music critics the same, Hip Hollywood asked a few celebrities to give their two cents about the song and what they feel about the two linking back up for a collaboration, considering the stars’ turbulent past, and some of which has even let Rihanna, possibly, forced to shelf the remix in general. But an jaw dropping revelation, Chris hints at Ri being on “Turn Up The Music” remix as well. The plot thickens, so peep below via Miss Info’s:

Well, I guess we shouldn’t be surprised…but I’m guessing some fans will be disappointed to hear that Rihanna is allegedly being pressured to shelf the “Birthday Cake (Remix)” completely. It’s possible that she recorded it with Chris without alerting label and management. But here’s the thing…burying this song, doesn’t really solve anything if these two continue to reunite in other ways. And by the looks of Rihanna’s twitter rant, the heart wants what the heart wants. Plus, are all parties ready to begin a lengthy period of lying about the duet’s existence? Seems like both Rihanna and Chris are pushing back…

After lacing the world with his infectious single “Copy, Paste”, and it’s following radio friendly number “Do It Like You” with singer Jeremih, Rev Run’s little boy Diggy Simmons is aiming for the stars on his forthcoming Atlantic Records debut album Unexpected Arrival, which will touch down on store shelves coming March 20th. The teen sensation takes us on set of the project’s shoot, as well as gives a quick glance at the LP’s trailer. Pre-order copies here.

Explained by Karen Civil, herself:

For Kendrick Lamar, the future couldn’t appear brighter. At least until he drops new music that makes you question how he manages to out do himself. It’s safe to say K Dot is one of the games premiere lyricists, regardless of tenure, which is the exactly reason Drake made sure the Compton native was apart of his Club Paradise Tour which is going on now.

Kendrick and I crossed paths once again at the video shoot for Game’s “The City” so it was only right I threw a few questions his direction, all of which he was more than willing to answer. We first dive into his head scratching omission from MTV’s Hottest MC’s List. In an in depth exclusive interview, Kendrick discusses working with Dr.Dre and Pharell, Alori Joy’s tragic death, his friendly competition between Schoolboy Q and much more.

Say what you want about Cham, one’s thing for sure, he’s a hustling motherf*cker. Grinding as usual, the H-Town representer is gearing up to treat his fans with some new material in the form of an extended play project entitled, “Ammunition,” due for digital and physical releases on March 20th and 27th. And for this preparation, he dropped this fresh single, featuring Tami Latrell, via his Soundcloud account–a song that you fans can also purchase.

In general, these sort of controversial-debatable lists will always cause a stir…some way, somehow. Following yesterday’s pick with Meek at numero siete, MTV’s selects the God Jay Hova as the number six spot, despite him having one hell of year with his partner in crime, Kanye West. At six, I don’t know, at least top 5, but then again this list went down the drain when…umm, this fellow was left entirely off. So I, or you guys, just shouldn’t really sweat it:

“If you talk about the Throne, yeah, top five, no question. But Jay himself? From January to August, what was going on?” asked Rahman Dukes, MTV News’ director of hip-hop news, pointing out Jigga’s inactivity apart from WTT. “Kanye was moving.”
