The realms of music and fashion are at the forefront of pop culture. Bringing them together creates an explosive combination, with the end result looking a lot like Alexander Wang’s Fall ’16 Campaign.
The prolific designer tapped a slew of artists including Alice Glass, A$AP Ferg, Big Sean, Metro Boomin, RL Grime, Skrillex, Tinashe, Tyga, Vince Staples, and Zoë Kravitz; as well as influencers like Kylie Jenner for the 60 sec clip.

After coming off a year which saw him make guest appearances on highly popular records alongside the likes of Fabolous, Rick Ross, Tyga, Jeremih and more, Velous has also raised his level of clout by producing hits for various artists including the much talked about Kanye West record “All Day,” which helped Velous snag two Grammy nominations.
Shifting gears into artist mode, the Kingston, NY native released singles “Sex And The City” and “Flex Wit You,” featuring his Coke Boy brethren French Montana, both of which have helped him win over more fans to add to his cult following. As he gears up for the release of his forthcoming debut album The Disco, Velous blesses listeners with a brand new high energy self-produced cut titled “Flipmode.” Hopefully, there’s a full remix to follow if Busta Rhymes tags onto this fly track!
Tyga lands a new spread in Toys for Boys Magazine titled Tyga: The Last King.
In the feature, it covers highlights of his career and Tyga’s starting point, mood boards, recording his top hit single “Rack City”, being apart of the “Wang Gang”, and much more.
It’s only been a few weeks since Kylie Jenner and Tyga split, but if the reports of a new budding romance for the reality starlet are true it might be over for good.
According to the The Sun, Jenner has moved on to singer/rapper PARTYNEXTDOOR and things are picking up pretty quickly.

The Sun reports that an anonymous source had this to say about the new romance,
“Their relationship started quite suddenly but it just feels right. They are mad for each other.”
Now while this match may seem totally out of left field Jenner and PARTYNEXTDOOR have been friends for some time. Jenner and her sister Kylie appeared in his music video for “Recognize” back during the summer of 2014. While these two have yet to confirm or deny whether they are indeed a couple PARTYNEXTDOOR’s Instagram post from a few days ago is only adding more fuel their romance fire.

So what do you guys think? Is PARTYNEXTDOOR the latest rapper to fall victim to the Kardashian/Jenner clan?
eeping Up With The Kardashians just got even more interesting today and Ryan Seacrest is somewhere probably like:
The Internet collectively lost it to the news that Blac Chyna,the fiancée of Rob Kardashian is indeed with child. Rob confirmed that he will become a father for the first time when he posted a photo of an emoji of his very much pregnant and soon to be wife on his Instagram account.
Rumors have been swirling ever since the couple were spotted with Auntie Kim heading to the OBGYN together, but today Rob made it official ending all speculation. Auntie Kim and Kylie showing signs of solidarity even liked their brothers Instagram post.
Now we can’t say the same for Kris Jenner who has yet to respond on the exciting news.BUT everything seems like the family has come to terms with the fact that Rob and Chyna are here to stay for the long haul for the most part. This could also shape up to be the reality TV version of Marvel’s latest blockbuster film Captain America: Civil War With Kris and the rest of the gals being the equivalent of Iron Man and his squad,and Rob being Captain America and Chyna as Bucky aka The Winter Soldier the former Kardashian/Jenner social assassin. If that is indeed the case it will definitely make for some great television and we are definitely here for it.
Now of course the what we have come to love is the instantaneous reaction that comes from the internet when moments like this happens. You know the Internet was here for this baby since Rob and Chyna first hooked up just because they knew how messy this situation would become. The reaction was swift and most importantly hilarious,hit the gallery below to see hilarious memes that came following the announcement.
It’s time to head back to Calvin’s for a fresh-cut and hilarious banter in BarberShop: The Next Cut. Ice Cube, Cedric the Entertainer,Eve and Anthony Anderson return along with newcomers to the franchise Common, Nicki Minaj, Regina Hall, J.B. Smoove, Margot Bingham and Lamorne Morris.
Rashad, Eddie and Calvin VIa: Warner Brothers
It’s been 10 plus years since we last visited the iconic barbershop located on the South Side of Chicago. The once male dominated sanctuary is now a unisex salon headed by Angie (Regina Hall) who is Calvin’s business partner. Calvin’s motley crew of barbers consist of old man Eddie (Cedric the Entertainer), Rashad (Common), Jerrod (Lamorne Morris), Raja (Utkarsh Ambudkar), Terri (Eve) and man of many occupations One-Stop (JB Smoove).
Angie leads of a group of feisty hair technicians, Draya (Nicki Minaj), and Bree (Margot Bingham). The new dynamic in the shop makes for some interesting banter between the opposite sexes as they comically debate topics such as Obama, Instagram Ho’s, and today’s vernacular such as term “on fleek” which Eddie makes light of.
Things also do get serious in the Malcolm D.Lee directed film when the topics of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner and other recent issues affecting black communities are brought up. Calvin’s is now in the safe-haven of the neighborhood thanks to a new political measure introduced and backed by former Barber now politician Jimmy (Sean Patrick Thomas) to help counteract all of the gang violence going on in the neighborhood. Jimmy’s idea isn’t met with the acceptance he would like leading to the barbers coming up with the idea to for the barbershop to become a safe-zone for 48hrs initiating a truce between rival gangs. Anyone who visits the shop during that time gets free haircuts or their hair did. Jerrod gets a hashtag going on Twitter to help spread the word about the ceasefire and helps get things in motion.
Jalen and Calvin VIa: Warner Brothers
The main story in the film revolves around Calvin and his son Jalen (Michael Rainy Jr.) and Calvin doing whatever it takes to keep his son out of trouble. Jalen becomes friends with Kenny who is the son Rashad and the two get involved with a local gang ran by Yummy (Tyga) don’t ask us why a gang leader’s name is Yummy. Calvin and his wife can’t believe their son’s recent behavior is of his own accord after Jalen gets in trouble at school. Calvin immediately feels that Jalen’s behavior is the direct result of hanging out with Kenny who is a known troublemaker and recently moved in with his dad Rashad and step-mom Terri. Calvin’s accusations lead to a rift between him and Rashad, Calvin fearing for his son’s life decides to look for a shop in a safer neighborhood leaving the rest of his employees to figure it out for themselves.
Draya, Terri and Rashad VIa: Warner Brothers
Rashad is also dealing with some family issues as well. Terri is now a celebrity stylist and her work keeps her very busy and keeps her from being home with Rashad.

The tension between the two is noticed by Draya who looks step in and make things interesting for Rashad. This sets up an interesting dynamic between the two leading ladies of hip-hop in the film.
Thanks to writers Kenya Barrish (black-ish) and Tracy Oliver, The Next Cut perfectly blends laugh out loud moments with serious tones. We do wish Nicki’s character was bit more stronger but she does make the most of her screen-time when she gets it. Regina Hall does a masterful job as Calvin’s business partner and shines when things get serious in the film. Common and Cube work well together in the film and of course Cedric shines as Eddie supplying much of the films comic relief.
Barbershop: The Next Cut is the perfect film for the family to go see as a whole or great option for date night.
