Universal Music Group Buys 49% Stake in Indie Label Group [PIAS]
Universal Music Group (UMG) has purchased a 49% stake in the indie label group [PIAS], expanding on a strategic global partnership that began last year. As part of the deal, [PIAS] founders Kenny Gates and Michel Lambot will retain control of the company, “remain fully independent” and UMG will have no seats on the indie’s board.

Ye aka Kanye West Dines With White Nationalist Milo Yiannopoulos, and Ray J
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Jason Davis / Getty Ye aka Kanye West took a break from being controversial to grab a meal with Ray J and right-winger Milo Yiannopoulos in Los Angeles.

Bobby Shmurda & NBA YoungBoy Get Testy With Each Other On Social Media
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Looks like an unexpected beef has been cooked up as NBA YoungBoy and Bobby Shmurda have been ribbing each other for the past few days and truth be told, we don’t have the appetite for this one. Things began when Bobby’s righthand man, Rowdy Rebel appeared on Math Hoffa’s My Expert Opinion and spoke on the killing of King Von, questioning why the parties involved couldn’t have had a more peaceful resolution to the drama. Being that Von’s killer was associated with NBA YoungBoy and Quando Rondo, NBA took to social media and referred to Rowdy as “irrelevant” and told him to “mind yo business.” Things just took off from there. After Bobby made a comment that NBA and Quando need to stop taking credit for the work that their homie...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Paras Griffin / Getty We’d never thought we’d see the day when Jim Jones would collaborate with a Ma$e out here, but interestingly that day has actually come… kinda. Linking up with Mooga Ma$e (not Murda Ma$e) for Mooga’s visuals to “Pressure,” Jim Jones, Shyst Vader, and Shineboy Double head down to the South to kick it with MM at Jonathan’s Sports Lounge & Grill to turn up with some thick women before heading to the studio to lay it down. We lowkey want a Mooga Ma$e and Murda Ma$e collaboration now. Keeping the vibe in the South, Peso Peso seems to be feeling a little West Coast-ish and in his clip to “Cali Vibez” kicks it with his homies in a parking lot where he stunts with two whips donning some Mexican flags. Check out the rest of today’s drops ...
