  4. Ryan Lochte took home gold at the Olympics this past weekend, but the all-star athlete has been making headlines for his diamond-encrusted grill (designed by Paul Wall), and his relationship status. His mom let slip that her son is, er, too busy for more than "one night stands," but "Love & Hip Hop Altanta" star K. Michelle, and close friend of Lochte, tells RapFix that "any girl would want to date Ryan," and she also revealed that Lil Wayne is his favorite rapper. “He’s gorgeous, he's fun, but he's been focused on the Olympics, and I've been focused on music," K. Michelle said, when inevitably questioned about the status of her relationship with Lochte. "He doesn’t have a girlfriend, he's just the homie," she added. "He really is." A series of tweets on the night that Lochte took home the gold medal made fans questions their involvement, but she says the two share a close bond after they were introduced by her lawyer and his manager Erika Wright (wife of Johnny Wright). K. Michelle says that Lochte's passion for hip-hop runs deep, and he works harder than anyone she knows. "His favorite rapper is Lil Wayne," she told RapFix. "Before he swims he listens to Wayne; he loves Lil Wayne." And what's the best advice you can get from an Olympic gold medalist? "["He's] someone that I can honestly say I look up to a lot," the R&B singer explained. "I remember talking to him, kinda crying about my music, and the greatest thing that was said was that he trains for years for one moment--you can always put out another single. And when I thought about it and I saw his dedication and to saw him win medals like it's nothing...that’s my homie. I'm proud.

  8. By Miranda Johnson Bangladesh, known for producing hits like Lil Wayne’s “A Milli” and Nicki Minaj’s “Did It On’em,” recently had an unfavorable thing or two to say about fellow producer Swizz Beatz. While attending a recent conference in NYC, Desh explained that he prides himself on constantly finding ways to reinvent his brand and when it comes to Swizz he believes that his colleague is severely lacking in that area. While attending the All American Music Conference at Webster Hall this past Saturday (August 4), Bangladesh told XXL that the secret to his success is always finding routes to reinvention. He said he believes this is what sets him apart from most producers in game, especially Swizz Beatz. “I don’t think Swizz is relevant,” Bangladesh told XXL. “I’m keeping it 100. I think there’s a difference between relevance and musical relevance,” he stated. “You married a lady that’s poppin’ [Alicia Keys], you know it’ll give you a lot of relevance, but you gotta make hits. Ain’t no hits. Are you relevant for the craft you’re doing or the life you live as far as the decisions you make?” Many people may beg to differ, however, as Swizz Beatz is having quite an eventful summer. After appearing at the 2012 ESPN ESPYs with Nas (and producing his Life is Good cut “Summer on Smash”) to producing “Throw It Away” off Slaughterhouse’s Welcome to: Our House LP and also nabbing deal with Reebok to feature in upcoming campaigns, Swizz’s situation actually doesn’t seem so bad at all.

  9. By Cristina Recino It seems as though the new boss of Nivea is not the biggest Rihanna fan. The Daily Mail reports that Stefan Heidenreich, head of Nivea’s parent company Beiersdorf, lacks understanding of why the “Where Have You Been” singer was the face of Nivea’s 100th anniversary year. "Rihanna is a no go,” he said. “I do not understand how to bring the core brand of Nivea in conjunction with Rihanna. Nivea is a company which stands for trust, family and reliability."Yikes! He went on to say that the ads that Rihanna shot last year should have never been aired. Rih Rih didn’t waste any time responding to the comments. She took to her Twitter Tuesday (August 7) and posted a headshot of Heidenreich, adding, “No caption necessary.” You may remember the debacle Nivea found itself in last year when its “Re-Civilize Yourself” campaign ads featured a preppy-looking black man holding the afro-covered head of his former self. It seems as though those values Heidenreich preaches about weren’t in effect last year. Rihanna continued to party it up in Barbados with her friends this weekend, clearly not bothered by the endoresement loss.

  10. [img]http://torrentfreak.com/images/internet-archive.png[/img]The [url="http://archive.org/"]Internet Archive[/url]‘s mission statement is to provide “universal access to all knowledge,” which is not all that different from The Pirate Bay’s ethos. BitTorrent is the fastest way to share files with large groups of people over the Internet, and this is one of the reasons that prompted the Internet Archive to start seeding well over a million of their files using the popular file-sharing protocol. Starting today, all new files uploaded to the Archive will also be available via BitTorrent. In addition, a massive collection of older files including concerts from [url="http://archive.org/search.php?query=%28mediatype%3Aetree%20AND%20-collection%3AGratefulDead%29%20AND%20-mediatype%3Acollection&sort=-week"]John Mayer, Jack Johnson and Maroon 5[/url] and the [url="http://archive.org/details/prelinger"]Prelinger collection[/url] are also being published via torrents. “I hope this is greeted by the BitTorrent community, as we are loving what they have built and are very glad we can populate the BitTorrent universe with library and archive materials,” Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle told TorrentFreak. “There is a great opportunity for symbiosis between the Libraries and Archives world and the BitTorrent communities,” he adds. At the time of writing the Internet Archive is seeding [url="http://bt1.archive.org/hotlist.php"]1,398,875 torrents[/url], but hundreds of new ones are being added every hour. The Internet Archive [url="http://archive.org/details/bittorrent"]recognizes[/url] that BitTorrent is now the fastest way to download files. “BitTorrent is now the fastest way to download items from the Archive, because the BitTorrent client downloads simultaneously from two different Archive servers located in two different datacenters, and from other Archive users who have downloaded these torrents already.” Interestingly, the Archive’s plans for BitTorrent are not limited to providing an alternative download link for their files. Founder Brewster Kahle says that they are also working on turning it into a storage mechanism. “The next step is to make BitTorrent a distributed preservation system for content like ours,” Kahle told us. Kahle believes that the Internet Archive and the BitTorrent community can help each other and hopes to get the discussion on the preservation idea started. “I think this whole thing will be awesome, and possibly very important,” he adds. In the wake of recent news featuring raids, crackdowns, DDoSes and lawsuits, this announcement from the Internet Archive brings some very welcome positive news about BitTorrent. For those who are interested in tracking how many people are leeching from the archive, here are [url="http://graphite.us.archive.org/dashboard/bittorrent-bt1"]some fancy graphs[/url].

  11. By Rob Markman Aristotle, from By Any Means has quite the eye. Just last week the New York-bred video director visualized Ludacris’ latest clip “Jingalin,” but he is no new jack. Aris and B.A.M. have been padding their filmography lending their lens to artists like Fabolous (“You Be Killin’ ‘Em), Nas (“The Don”) and The-Dream (“Long Gone”) for quite some time now. For his latest video, Aris creates a fan-video for Frank Ocean’s “Lost” from the Odd Future singer/songwriter’s major label debut Channel Orange. The clip sets Ocean’s track to scenes from the 2007 Wes Anderson-directed comedy “The Darjeeling Limited,” which stars Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray. Check what Aristotle had to say about his “Lost” video below: “I haven’t connected to a track like this in a really long time; What I found most beautiful about this project was the absence of limitation in the creative process. At its foundation, this project is for me an un-tainted form of art – No limitations, no boundaries, simply put it is pure artistic expression. It goes without saying, this is an incredibly fulfilling process for me, and one which helps me grow creatively. As with all film making, this was a collaborative process and I want to express my gratitude to Josh Aronson, our editor who took this project to another place.” What do you think of B.A.M.’s take on Frank Ocean’s “Lost”?

  13. By Rob Markman Without the perfect beat, even rap’s most gifted storytellers can fall by the wayside, but Grammy-nominated board beast Hit-Boy doesn’t have that problem. Like his G.O.O.D. Music mentor Kanye West, Hit-Boy earned his stripes as a producer before revealing to the world his passion for rap. A passion that resulted in his debut mixtape HITstory, which the California native released today as a free Internet download on his House of Hit Website. The comparisons to Yeezy are inevitable, but on the mixtape opening title track Hit begins to paint pictures of his own life with eye-popping brush strokes. “I knew what I wanted before I had it, but I always had it I was an addict/ And this room is feelin’ just like an attic, making 10 beats a day and going at it,” he spits over an eerie beat build marked by sharp violin stabs and calming child-like wails. On “HITstory” the “N---as in Paris” producer weaves a narrative of disappointment and heartbreak dealing with a pregnant girlfriend, a crumbling crew and his diminishing rap dreams. Then suddenly things changed. “God damn I was just home, now I’m #3 on The Throne/ I had so many emotions, that I had to make it into a song,” he spits. In June Hit-Boy released his introductory rap single (and video) “Jay-Z Interview,” a wordy proclamation of his versatility in the studio. “I play my own drums and basslines, you know homey,” he brags. He also holds his own on the mic. On “Option” Hit spits alongside his G.O.O.D. Music label mate Big Sean employing an impressive double-time flow, then on “Old School Caddy” he recruits Kid Cudi to ride on the funky car ode. “Busta A-- N---as” is much more menacing with its thumping bass drop and murderous bars from Chip Tha Ripper and Bun B. Hit gets conceptual on “East vs. West” where he imagines the last days of both the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur and takes it to the strip club on “Fan.” As good as Hit-Boy’s first attempt is HITstory is only the opening chapter for an MC who has the potential to be a celebrated MC. Before he ends the tape with the introspective “Running in Place” Hit leaves listeners with a bit of advice in the form of a lyric: “If you gotta dream, dream big/ And if you gonna live, live right, ’cause we never get the chance to do it twice.” And the story continues. What do you think of Hit-Boy’s debut mixtape HITstory? [url=http://rapfix.mtv.com/2012/08/07/mixtape-daily-hit-boy-tells-his-story-on-rap-debut/]View the full article[/url]
  14. Being one of the most sought after rappers in the game should be power enough, but 2 Chainz, like any mere mortal, has dreams of possessing a superduperpower (that's the upgraded version of "superpower" FYI). During his appearance on the upcoming episode of MTV 2’s “Guy Code” the Atlanta rapper reveals his desire to read minds. Sounds like risky business. “If I was able to have some type of superpower, I think it would be [to know] what people are thinking,” 2 Chainz admits. “Like I could actually see their thoughts, so we’ll probably say things at the same time. I’d just have to look them in the eyes and when I’m locked in, I could see what they’re thinking, so [people will] probably just try to wear shades around me all the time and won’t allow me to look in their eyes.” Even if 2 Chainz was granted this superpower, he'd have plenty of trouble reading any other rapper's mind, since they eat, sleep and shower in sunglasses.

[url="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/sacha-baron-cohen-james-bond-spoof-paramount-358635"][i]The Hollywood Reporter[/i][/url] has the news that Cohen's pitch for a spoof of James Bond-style films, which he prepared with screenwriter Phil Johnson, was recently picked up by Paramount. There's no guarantee that Cohen will take a role in the project, but [i]THR[/i] reports it's about a James Bond-like spy who "is forced to go on the run with his long-lost brother, a moronic soccer hooligan." If Cohen were to take a role in the movie, we have a feeling which character it would be. (Hint: it's the latter.) But we'd love to see Cohen take on the suave James Bond spy and maybe have someone who typically plays straight comedic roles be the "moronic" brother. Apparently Cohen's participation in the film, which is currently untitled, is dependent on his "availability and scheduling." Now that he's out of "Django Unchained" and "Les Miserables" is wrapped, hopefully that means he's available. For those of you who aren't too familiar with Johnson, he's made quite a name for himself over the past two years. Johnson had his big break with 2011's "Cedar Rapids," and also wrote Disney's upcoming ode to video games, "Wreck-It Ralph." But Johnson also has a hand for drama, as he penned Alexander Payne's next project, "Nebraska." We have a feeling this film with Cohen will be more comedy than drama, but it's nice to know he can straddle both genres. [i]Are you intrigued by this premise? Which character would you want Cohen to play?

  21. So, there's the answer then. This past weekend Kanye West hit PH-D night club in NYC and surprised the crowd by hooking up his laptop to the speakers and playing a few unheard tracks from the upcoming G.O.O.D. Music album Cruel Summer. One of them, titled "Perfect Bitch," was speculated to be about his girlfriend Kim Kardashian, and Mr. West confirmed that today. With his usual one sentence tweet, Kanye simply wrote, "I wrote the song Perfect Bitch about Kim," putting all doubt to rest. According to club goers, the song tells the tale of Kanye's search for the perfect woman, which has ended thanks to his relationship with Kim Kardashian. Kimye has been joined at the hip for the past few weeks, being spotted together everywhere from Cannes to Dash store openings in LA, and Kanye even made his debut on "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" this season. Last week 'Ye shared this photo of Kim's rear end and a Lamborghini, with the caption "Mercy." Cruel Summer is due September 12, led by the singles "Mercy" and "New God Flow." Kanye revealed the album's artwork via Twitter last week, after premiering his short film of the same title at the Cannes Film Festival back in May.

  23. By Miranda Johnson Just one day after showing off her softer side by apologizing to former foe Kreayshawn, Azealia Banks is now back at it, with Jim Jones as her target. The quick-tempered rapper let loose on Jimmy via Twitter, in a heated exchange over "Vamp," which she claims Jim Jones did not originate. On Monday (August 6) the two Harlem rappers went at it once Azealia tried to claim that she used the word “vamp” prior to Jimmy’s Vampire Life movement and mixtape. Azealia first tweeted "VAMP: a very sexually/financially powerful woman who is usually characterized by a penchant for dark things; nighttime, witchcraft, .. Etc.”, possibly referring to a title of a new track she’s working on? The tweet then caused a fan to jump in making Banks aware that “vampin” is Jim Jones’ thing. After reading the tweets, Jim innocently jumped in responding “@Rahim_TheDream @AZEALIABANKS tht vamplife is contagious." However, not one to take things lightly, the “212” rapper fired back writing, “@jimjonescapo yea I know! I wrote 212 in 2011 before ur song tho. That vamp sh-- is some fashion stuff as well. In case u didn’t know.” A still-calm Jones responded, “@AZEALIABANKS u better check th credits boo we ain’t just start vampin we are vampin u r welcome to join it’s a lifestyle #vampirelife”. The beef rose from a 2 to a 10 at this point. A now wound up Azealia wrote "@jimjonescapo don't be tryna take no credit Holmes." It was followed by Jimmy posting, "Knock it off please learn more about Harlem before u start vampin lol jokes enjoy ur day keep #vampin". Banks responded, "UUUUUGGGGGGHHHH SHHHUTT UP!!!

  24. Justin Bieber clearly does not believe bald is beautiful ... in fact, the pop star thinks Prince William's thinning hairline is downright embarrassing.

  25. [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Banner.jpg[/img] The first official photo of [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/15539/personmain.jhtml"]Daniel Day-Lewis[/url] as Abraham Lincoln in [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/99500/personmain.jhtml"]Steven Spielberg[/url]'s new movie has made its way online (via [url="http://insidemovies.ew.com/2012/08/07/first-look-daniel-day-lewis-lincoln/"]EW[/url]), and the resemblance is as uncanny as we knew it would be. It looks like Day-Lewis has once again dove into a role, this time giving the world an Honest Abe that looks like the honest-to-God real thing. Day-Lewis isn't the first actor to slip into the famous chin strap beard and toss on a jaunty stovetop hat. The [url="http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0026778/"]IMDb character page[/url] for Abraham Lincoln lists 300 appearances by the sixteenth president in movies, starting all the way back in 1911. But who wore the beard the best? We score the cinematic Lincolns from 1 to 10 after the jump! [b]Daniel Day-Lewis in "Lincoln"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Day-Lewis.jpg[/img] Day-Lewis looks more weathered/leathery than we've ever seen before and more like the prez because of it. [b]Score: 9[/b] [b]Benjamin Walker in "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Walker.jpg[/img] Walker plays Abe throughout his life and dons extensive prosthetics for the later years. The results are impressive at times, creepy at others, but overall kept us longing for Day-Lewis. [b]Score: 4[/b] (Ha!) [b]Will Ferrell in "Drunk History"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Ferrell.jpg[/img] It's Will Ferrell. Playing Abraham Lincoln. In an inebriated retelling of history. Nothing but the beard and the hat required. [b]Score: 2[/b] [b]Robert V. Barron in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Bill-and-Ted.jpg[/img] This portrayal of Lincoln is unique from any other because it explores the president's love of partying on, dudes. [b]Score: 7[/b] [b]Sam Waterston in "Gore Vidal's Lincoln" and "The Civil War"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Waterston.jpg[/img] For this miniseries, "Law & Order"'s Jack McCoy basically looked like Sam Waterston with a partially grown Lincoln beard and some new hair gel. Extra points for sweet coif. [b]Score: 3[/b] [b]Gregory Peck in "The Blue and The Gray"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Peck.jpg[/img] Peck's take on Lincoln brings the importance of eyebrows to the foreground of the discussion. It's all about the eyebrows. [b]Score: 8[/b] [b]Hal Holbrook in "North and South" and "Lincoln"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Holbrook.jpg[/img] It's hard to fault Holbrook with looking too nice to play Lincoln, but the actor's naturally genial face doesn't really match up with the actual man's serious expression. [b]Score: 6[/b] [b]Henry Fonda in "Young Mr. Lincoln"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Fonda.jpg[/img] Fonda has the distinction of playing a pre-beard younger Lincoln, so the resemblance doesn't matter quite as much, but it's hard to see anything else but Fonda. [b]Score: 5[/b] [b]Walter Huston in "Abraham Lincoln"[/b] [img]http://moviesblog.mtv.com//wp-content/uploads/movies/2012/08/Lincoln-Huston.jpg[/img] While not as natural as Day-Lewis' Lincoln, Huston comes just as eerily close to resembling the man himself.
