Because you either missed it or forgot about it:
Juvenile was arrested after police found marijuana in his home. Whatever. Probably not newsworthy, but it gives us a reason to link to "Ha," the best song he ever wrote.
Ice Cube is readying his new album. We believe he's going to call it Exploitation of a Hallowed Hip-Hop Reputation: Are We There Yet?
Remember when 50 and Ricky Ross were fighting back and forth with each other and 50 released a sex tape that starred Ross' baby's mother? Oh, you don't? Well, the police do.

Yep, rumors were true: Ludacris did a song with Criss Angel.
New album from Gorillaz.
So, some guy kissed Kid Cudi at a recent performance. No biggie, right? It's not like somebody will use this to make some really crude, ignorant, uncreative video parody.
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
