Ricky “Lord Infamous” Dunigan died in his sleep at his mother’s house in Memphis, Tennessee. Dunigan was not currently sick but did fall victim to a stroke and heart attack back in 2010.

Love him or hate him, but Chris Brown has a new single out called “Loyal”. The track, which premiered on his web site, features rappers Lil’ Wayne and French Montana. The song takes aim at a possible ex-girlfriend. Take a listen to the single below. Brown’s anger management issues seem to be overshadowing his music career as of late. His probation was revoked over a D.C. fight. Despite all his legal woes, Brown continues to release music. Do you think Brown deserves the public’s support at this point or do you think his career is over? Sound off in the…

Despite “Blurred Lines” being named the worst song of the year, Robin Thicke does not care as he forges ahead with his next single. The uptempo “Feel Good”, which can be seen below for your viewing pleasure, has a bunch of dancers a la Radio City Rocketttes and the song itself promises not to rip off any previous soul singers. Thicke looks like he’s having too much fun in the clip, though, as he cracks open a bottle of champagne. Check out Thicke’s party below. Looking ahead in 2014, Thicke has two Grammy noms under his belt for Record of…

Let the comparisons fly–JT versus Robin Thicke. Justin Timberlake just released the video for his single, “Tunnel Vision” and makes Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” video look tame. It’s funny that Janet Jackson revealed just about the same as the ladies do in Justin’s new video in 2004’s Superbowl Halftime Show and she barely has a career anymore. Just saying… Justin Timberlake’s “Tunnel Vision” Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines”

Nine Inch Nails have officially released their new video for the single, “Came Back Haunted” to their brand new album, Hesitation Marks, due out September 3rd. Hope they have more aggressive songs on the way because this one’s a sleeper. The video matches the song’s quality completely. The David Lynch directed video does not measure up to the hype that NIN was in the 90s. Hope the band gets it together and have a decent album planned because the way it looks, Marks will be a forgettable footnote in music history. You can watch the video below:
