“R.i.P To the legend Larry King God bless him,” 50 Cent captioned a photo of himself alongside King on Twitter.

Remembering Larry King’s Interviews With Lady Gaga, Prince, Beyonce & More
It’s estimated that King, a 25-year veteran of CNN, conducted an estimated 50,000 on-air interviews during career. He was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1989. Watch 10 of King’s most memorable sit-downs with musicians below. Frank Sinatra (1988) Sinatra gave a rare interview to King in 1988, marking the iconic singer’s last major TV appearance before his death 10 years later. During the chat, Sinatra revealed that he never got over his stage fright (“I tremble every time…”) and called writers of kiss-and-tell books “pimps and whores.” Barbra Streisand (1995) Streisand appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live several times dating back to the early 1990s. In this mid-’90s appearance, the legendary singer and actress discussed her f...
Cardi B Plans to Just ‘Enjoy Life’ in This Show-Stopping Dress
“Majin Buu & Goku,” she captioned a photo of herself in the dress, with Offset by her side. The pair were photographed out in Los Angeles with their masks on (with Cardi’s matching her red dress, of course). While social media buzzed about the fun, bold look on Saturday, Cardi took a moment to shoot down a negative comment. “I’m just tryna figure what man is ok with their woman/girl/gf/wife walking out in public with her a– and g string showing,” one person tweeted Saturday , to which Cardi replied: “A confident one who know his b—- a star and bad.” See her show off the full outfit on Instagram.

Eminem Premieres New Music Video for “Higher”: Watch
Eminem is in #SurvivalMode in his new music video for “Higher”. The clip for the Music to Be Murdered By single debuted Saturday afternoon ahead of the rematch between Justin Poirier and Conor McGregor at UFC 257. Watch it down below. As The Detroit Times points out, “Higher” has become something of an anthem in the sports world as of late, recently appearing in an ESPN advertisement for the College Football Playoffs national championship game. Of course, Eminem is no stranger to the ring; 2015 boxing drama Southpaw was inspired by Marshall Mathers and featured original music from the rapper. In related news, Eminem released a Side B (Deluxe Edition) of Music to Be Murdered By, featuring 16 additional songs, just last month. [embedded content] #SURVIVALMODE &#...
Pa Salieu Makes US TV Debut Performing “Frontline” on Fallon: Watch
British-Gambian rapper Pa Salieu has crossed the Atlantic to make his US TV debut with a performance of “Frontline” on Fallon. The 23-year-old MC gained international attention for his 2020 mixtape Send Them to Coventry, which built a musical bridge between UK drill and Afrobeats. He’s got a fresh take on two genres on the rise, and as his Tonight Show appearance revealed, he sells his music with a wonderfully theatrical presentation. He began “Frontline” with a recreation of his Send Them to Coventry cover art, which shows him as a kind of felled Godzilla, lying in city streets and using a building as a pillow. From there, he treated the Tonight Show stage as a set for a one-shot music video, strolling through a Gambian market, leaning through the windows of...
Song of the Week: A Pixilated Rico Nasty Earns High Score in “LiLBiTcH” Video Game
Song of the Week breaks down and talks about the song we just can’t get out of our head each week. Find these songs and more on our Spotify Top Songs playlist. For our favorite new songs from emerging artists, check out our Spotify New Sounds playlist. Take a deep breath … we have a sane president, a history-making veep, and “Individual-1” banned from Twitter … exhale. That’s not to say that life is all good or that all the problems we face as a nation are suddenly solved. No, it takes a lot of work to undo a four-year con job. That said, it won’t hurt if we take a measly two minutes and sixteen seconds out of our stressful, cooped-up lives to relax and, in the parlance of my time, take a chill pill with, well, chillpill. For those unfamiliar, chillpill is the name of the 15-year collabora...

Rico Nasty Joins chillpill and Soleima on Wacky, Wonderful Single “LiL BiTcH”: Stream
If debut album Nightmare Vacation taught us anything, it’s that Rico Nasty is at her best when operating out of the norm. Genres, rules, and expectations — the young rapper relishes in breaking them all, and all while making it look fun as hell. For her latest project, a single and video called “LiL BiTcH”, Rico ditches her recently acquired 18th century ball gown to become… a video game character that takes down evil ducks and bears. Classic Rico move, baby. The release is a collaboration spearheaded by pop producer chillpill and also features Danish singer Soleima, but per usual, Rico steals the show. The Maryland rapper herself is already like a cartoon character personified, and when coupled with wacky and wonderful hyperpop like this, it’s a guaranteed surreal slam dunk. (Also se...
Angel Haze Returns with New Song “Weight”: Stream
Angel Haze has returned to drop the new song “Weight”. Our former Rookie of the Year broke out in 2012 with a trauma-baring cover of Eminem’s “Cleaning Out My Closet”. Haze shared a string of buzzy mixtapes in the early 2010s, came out as nonbinary (though preferring singular he/she pronouns instead of ‘they’), and unleashed the albums Dirty Gold (2013) and Back to the Woods (2015). Afterwards, her pace of songwriting slowed down significantly, which makes “Weight” a welcome surprise. The track channels aggression backed by a lifetime of rage-inducing experiences. “Y’all couldn’t take what I been through,” she raps, adding, “Yeah, silly n****s you was thinking I was buried/ But I soared/ Now y’all gone wish that I died in the psych ward!” Elsewhere, she hints at her tim...

The three-time Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter also sings her own jams — often about loving your own body or having somebody else love it — and they can be listened to in the daytime at the beach or nighttime in the bedroom. “Be careful how you carry me, dear/ It’s automatic to be overcome with fear/ But let me love you still,” she asserts on the soulful “My World.” “My music is very grounded in positivity, self love, finding yourself, sexy, ethereal, soulful, healing, boss talk, and big VIBES for EVERYONE (especially girls that love girls),” Asiahn tells Billboard.
