Yesterday (9/3) was Friday, which means it was the day Kanye West gave out another free tune.  This time, it was the song “Devil In A New Dress.”  Check it out above, and while you’re listening, read all of the crazy tweets Kanye blasted out this morning (9/4).  We’re not sure what exactly is fueling the manic messaging, but dude talks about everything from his displeasure of the media, to his love for country music.  He even apologizes to Taylor Swift.  Something’s not right here.

B.o.B. released his newest video today, which is for the track “Magic” that’s currently be worked at radio.  The tune features Weezer frontman, Rivers Cuomo who as you are about to learn, is not the best dancer in the world… or even, the best hand waiver.  Dude looks a little uncomfortable in this video, a feeling we bet a lot of B.o.B.’s earlier fans are sharing right about now.  After establishing quite a bit of cred in the hip hop world, we’re not sure Bobby Ray is gonna get any love from the hood with this sugary single.

Not all shows this week went as well as the Eminem/Jay-Z one did.  Guns N’ Roses were scheduled to play in Ireland on Wednesday (9/1) but of course, Axl took his sweet time in taking the stage.  After making the crowd wait for an hour and a half, he finally decided to go on, only to be met with thunderous boos and bottles being thrown at him.  The singer quickly stopped the show, gave the crowd a warning and then walked off.  Check it out above as the side chatter that can be heard is priceless.  As for the the staff member who told the crowd they were dealing with “technical difficulties,” you didn’t fool anyone.  The entire arena saw what happened.

Last night, Eminem and Jay-Z kicked off their string of shows in Em’s hometown of Detroit.  Obviously Em had some tricks up his sleeve as he brought Drake out for the song “Forever.”  Have a look above as the crowd goes ballistic.

You had to figure Drake owed Marshall one since the roles were reversed last month in Toronto.  As for Jay, is it safe to say that he’s gonna bring out Alicia Keys in New York?  Just sayin’.

Chris Martin showed up yesterday to the big Apple conference in San Francisco where the multimedia giant revealed some of their future plans, including their new music based social networking platform, Ping.  The singer played a new song which we presume will be on the upcoming Coldplay album.  The track is called “Wedding Bells.”  Upon introducing it, Martin joked with thetech savy crowd, “This is a new song I’ve been working on. I call it Coldplay 2.6. It has a lot of new features. It features seven different kinds of chords. Even a new one that our closest rivals have no idea about.”

Have a look above at his performance of “Wedding Bells.”

Cee-Lo Green has created headlines, industry chatter and above all, notoriety with his new single “F*ck You” (as well it’s radio version, “Forget You”).  Originally he released the song with a simple video that featured the lyrics and nothing more.  Now Mr. Green has put out a real video with a 50′s theme and a pre-pubescent version of himself singing the words.  You can see it here on his Facebook page, just note you’ll need to “Like” the page in order to view it.  Ahhhh, and the marketing continues.
