The Ghost in the Machine: The Evolution of Songwriting in Modern R&B

There were a lot of crews featured in the BET cypher this year like TDE and A$AP Mob; the tough spitters that make up Pro Era weren't featured though.

Lil Wayne is making more power moves with his cash. The Young Money boss has invested in the luxury watch and accessories company wize and ope, based in Paris, France -- he is now one of the organization's biggest shareholder.

Like Timbaland, Master P may be feeling some type of way. Sonya Miller, his wife of 24 years, has filed for divorce, claiming "irreconcilable differences" for her departure.

Kid Cudi was not happy with a drunk fan, who interrupted his set during a recent performance in Texas. The 29-year-old rapper took matters into his own hands and gave the fan a quick departure off stage.

J. Cole shows why he's one of the best new rappers out right now with some killer bars on "Hell's Kitchen," a track that will appear on DJ Khaled's forthcoming album, 'Suffering From Success'.

Nicki Minaj's respect for rap legend and businesswoman Queen Latifah was front and center during a recent taping on Latifah's talk show.

In a recent sit down with The Huffington Post, Nas spoke about the focus of his upcoming album, how he became involved with Hennessy's "Wild Rabbit" campaign, and working with other music greats like Mariah Carey and Justin Timberlake among other things.

If the TDE BET chypher wasn't enough for y'all you're in luck. Almost a month after inking a deal with TDE, Isaiah Rashad drops the remix for his track "Shot You Down" featuring Jay Rock and SchoolBoy Q.

Either Drake didn't want to deal with a $1.5 million lawsuit from Future or the two settled their differences like men -- all we know is Future is back on his "Would You Like a Tour?"?

Curren$y links with his former Young Money/Cash Money label bosses Lil Wayne and Birdman for the Monsta Beatz-produced record "442." On the track, the braggadocios MCs trade bars about the high life.
