Kendrick Lamar has suggested he may not continue to perform material from his latest album 'To Pimp A Butterfly' once his current US tour comes to an end. Lamar released his critically acclaimed album earlier in the year, but only chose to perform a handful of the new songs live in his sets over the summer, including his appearances at Wireless and Reading & Leeds Festival in the UK. Currently, Lamar is playing more from the record as part of his 'Kunta's Groove' tour in the US where he stopped in New York on November 2. During the performance he spoke to fans between songs, using the time to speak to them about how it has been received and how it will continue on in his future gigs. "This may be the first and last time that I perform 'To Pimp A Butterfly' - [in] eight to 10 citi

There's a new kid on the block: Philadelphia hip-hop artist Nave makes some pretty sophisticated music for a young, 20-something male. First single, "Cosby Kids," comes from his upcoming full-length Espresso and sends an intoxicating message about growing up, and how often our innate innocence so often gets lost along the way.

As a veteran of the BKS1 Radio BBQ in New Jersey, Nave knows how to command a crowd and the mic. If "Cosby Kids" and the latest single, "Copy That," are any indications of his potential, he's definitely just getting started. While the Philly wordsmith delivers his rhymes with unbridled passion and spits them out in ty

"I've got ColliGrove, that I’m working on," 2 Chainz said on Rap Radar's podcast. "That's the me and Wayne project. That will be out, probably sooner than people think." In 2012, Wayne told MTV News just how close the two rappers are to one another. "That's my best friend, that's my homie from back in the day,"Wayne said. "It's almost like - I don't wanna say it, it seem crazy when I say it, but it's like watching your child up there. It feels too good; it's a weird feeling." Along with this potential collab, 2 Chainz has said he is planning on more solo releases. "

It has been confirmed that Prince will begin a stripped-down tour around the UK. The legendary musician, whose Princestagram Instagram account recently took the internet by storm, will be playing Glasgow, Royal Concert Hall (November 27), London, Theatre Royal (November 29) and Birmingham, Symphony Hall (December 1). The 'Prince Spotlight: Piano & A Microphone' tour was announced during a press conference at the musician's Paisley Park studios in Minnesota. Prince allegedly told attendees: "Why do this now? For several reasons. For starters it is a challenge. I rarely get bad reviews because this is something that's been perfected for over 30 years. You have to try new things. With the piano it is more naked, more pure. You can see exactly what you get." 3RDEYEGIRL, a Prince affil
