Kendrick Lamar and
Lady Gaga were left feeling disappointed when tracks the two collaborated on, like "Partynauseous," were left off the West Coast MC's debut album,
good kid, m.A.A.d city, due to Mother Monster refusing to relinquish creative control.

Are
Wyclef Jean,
Wale and
will.i.am the same person? Apparently so, according to a Miami news reporter.
Blake Burman, who covers the political scene for WSVN 7 NEWS, needs his hip-hop card revoked immediately after he failed to properly identify

The
saga continues in the war between
Nicki Minaj and
Mariah Carey. After video surfaced Tuesday (Oct. 2) of the entertainers
arguing at the judges table during a taping of an "American Idol" audition, Carey now insists
