We can't really be surprised that The Weeknd's new video for "Kiss Land" is pretty much a raunchy, NSFW set of blurry, porn-like clips of girls making out and Japanese animation, while Abel Tesfaye sings in the foreground. The song is the title track off his forthcoming record, which has yet to be given a release date.
M.I.A. on Tuesday premiered the new set of visuals for her latest single, "Bring the Noize." Her fourth album, Matangi, is expected this fall via N.E.E.T./Interscope.
Unless Kanye West decides to release some kind of surprise trailer for baby North West's new reality series, this is the best video clip you'll see all day. To celebrate the release of J. Cole's new album, Born Sinner, his buddy Drake took him on a 1:30 a.m. shopping spree on Thursday morning. The duo went to Best Buy overnight and Drake bought up the store's stock of Cole's new record.
Following a successful stint earlier this month at New York’s Governors Ball and a tour with Bloc Party, Vancouver, B.C.’s electro-dance outfit Bear Mountain has unveiled a captivating set of visuals for their new single “Faded.” The clip, which was directed by Matt Leaf, stars Mackenzie Grey as the thoroughly creepy ringleader in a boxing ring.
The film's release may still be months away, but the first official trailer for Anchorman 2 is here. In the sequel, the News 4 crew is recovering from failure and burnout. It's the '80s, and cable news is the next big thing. Ron Burgundy and Co. are back in action, and they are joined by a few friends, including Kristen Wiig, Ed Helms and James Marsden.
The song's release may have been delayed, but on Monday, Chris Brown's "Don't Think They Know," featuring the late Aaliyah, finally hit the Web. The new track is the second single off Brown's forthcoming record, X, which is due July 16.
As we previously suggested, JAY Z indeed has a new album coming on July 4. The rapper, as promised, confirmed the news during Game 5 of the NBA Finals. He is seen in a lengthy promo with Pharrell Williams, Swizz Beatz, Timbaland and Rick Rubin in the studio.

Skylar Grey on Tuesday unveiled the new set of visuals for her track, "Wear Me Out," the third single off her forthcoming debut album, Don't Look Down.

Grouplove on Monday confirmed plans for their sophomore album, Spreading Rumors, which will arrive on Sept. 17 via Canvasback/Atlantic. To mark the band's announcement, they also unveiled the set's first single via video.

Kanye West on Sunday night closed out a Governors Ball with plenty of highs and lows. The weekend-long festival was shut down early on Friday due to torrential rains, which ended several musicians' sets throughout the day before completely canceling the event's first day. A muddy, messy, stressful weekend was capped by the most anticipated performance of them all: Kanye West. The polarizing MC, whose Yeezus arrives on June 18, performed previously heard tracks off the set, "Black Skinhead" and "New Slaves," in addition to new cuts "On Site," "I Am A God" and "Send It Up."

If you missed Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on Friday, you also missed an incredible musical performance at the end of the show. The-Dream stopped by to promote his new album, IV Play, and he has joined by Gary Clark Jr. and the Roots as he offered the crowd a velvety smooth rendition of "Too Early." From the vocals to Clark's impressive guitar solo, it's five minutes of goodness.
