Birdman once again appears alongside Lil Wayne and Drake, this time around in a music video for his single "4 My Town (Play Ball)". Previously, the three rappers have been brought together for a music video supporting Birdman's other song "Money to Blow".
Both "4 My Town" and "Money to Blow" come from Birdman's fourth solo studio album "Pricele$$" and feature Weezy and Drake. "4 My Town" is considered to be a sequel to "Money to Blow", which was released in digital retails since September.
"PriceLe$$" came out in U.S. on November 23. Featured guests in the album include T-Pain and Kevin Rudolf, Bun B and Mack Maine. Its deluxe edition, meanwhile, lines up Jay Sean, Gucci Mane, Lil' Kim, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross as Birdman's collaborators.

New York — Still fly, still relevant, still making multiple hustles lucrative. Sean "Diddy" Combs is 40 years old. The money in the room was anything but dirty on Thursday night, as Diddy celebrated his birthday (which was actually November 4) in the Grand Ballroom of the Plaza Hotel. The atmosphere was almost like Garden of Eden meets "The Godfather," with trees, grass and black decorations. Diddy and his goodfellas came dressed in tuxedos, the ladies in elegant gowns, and all were greeted by ballerinas serving drinks.
A little before midnight, the host walked in with a huge entourage that included Trey Songz, Tyrese, Red Café, Andre Harrell and director F. Gary Gray. Jay-z, Young Jeezy, Rick Ross, Kim Kardashian, Martha Stewart, Gayle King, »

Singer Mya's Billboard-charting history in R&B, pop, and hip-hop now seems like required briefing ahead of her newest venture: dazzling the over-animated judges on Dancing with the Stars. As the highest-scoring competitor of Dwts's ninth season, Mya seems poised to win it all with her seemingly shirt-allergic partner Dmitry Chaplin. Her success against contestants like Kelly Osbourne and Donny Osmond may not be a surprise considering her past in choreographed music videos ("Case of the Ex," "My Love is Like Wo," and the Grammy-winning remake with Christina Aguilera, Lil Kim, and Pink, "Lady Marmalde" spring to mind), but she is nonetheless thrilling to watch. Mya talked with Movieline to recount the near-perfect scores she garnered on this week's samba and quickstep, the impact of Savion Glover and Gregory Hines on her life, and her most intimidating "Lady Marmalade" co-writher. »

Stars of the music world hit the red carpet and the stage at tonight's MTV EMAs held in Berlin, Germany. The ladies were decked out in black and cream, with Beyonce and Katy Perry standing out in their long gowns.

The guys were the one with the stand out makeup trend of the night - guyliner - though the Jonas Brothers weren't feeling the need to participate. Tell us what you think about all the looks here on FabSugar UK. Inside, Jay-z performed and looked adorable posing with his wife backstage while Brody Jenner smiled with Miranda Cosgrove.

The Biggie Smalls biopic Notorious was an uneven film about a fascinating man. (Moral of the story? Try not to make a biopic where the subject's relatives are producers. The results will be skewed. And there should, someday, be a movie about the mothers of Biggie and Tupac, two fascinating women.) Even though the film itself was uneven, there were quite a few excellent performances: Anthony Mackie (but when is he not? For example, The Hurt Locker) as Tupac, Jamal Woolard as Biggie, and Naturi Naughton as Lil' Kim. In fact, Naughton had the most interesting storyline, as Lil' Kim moved on from being Biggie's girl to his rapping protege, and the pain and hurt she portrayed was so raw and real. Playing a person who's still alive, and who came out, publicly, against the film, couldn't have been easy, and I wanted to see more of Naughton. In comparison? »

In this series, we will study the 16 couples on Dancing with the Stars season 9 and predict who has the best chances for success, and who is doomed to humiliation.
Who is Mya?

Part of getting the respect you deserve at the VMAs involves the careful planning of which type and shape of sequined sheath you'll want to glue to a small section of your bare left boob. So: Who barely wore it better? As my mother used to say to me and my feuding sister: "Girls. It is not a competition." But let's vote anyway! Damn, this is a tough one.... Lil' Kim Pros: Did it first; excellent purple wig; Diana Ross (!!!) followed through on nation's basest desire and reached out to swat her boob at the podium. Cons: full-on patterned jumpsuit = blatant eff-you to fashion; subject's recent association with Dancing With the Stars. (Ha!) Pink Pros: Zesty diamond-patterned pant leg; mind-blowing mid-performance trapeze routine. Cons: Zen-like composure post-mind-blowing circus feats could foster self-loathing in less-fit voters; in other words: everyone. »

It's a good thing Pink and Shakira are both cool celebs and not overdramatic narcissists like Kanye West. In what could have caused a potential red carpet catfight, both singers showed up to last night's Video Music Awards wearing the exact same Balmain leather-studded dress. But we can't blame their stylists for this one... Pink told E! News that she ordered the dress online herself, while we're guessing Shakira's peeps picked hers. The "She Wolf" singer paired her edgy dress with leather knee-high boots, while Pink (who later rocked pasties à la Lil' Kim during her performance) wore pumps, dangly earrings and a funky hairdo. Luckily, the girls... »

Being kicked off with Michael Jackson tribute show which was introduced by Madonna and led by Janet Jackson, the 26th Annual MTV Video Music Awards continued with a series of live performances from big stars. Lady GaGa, Jay-z, Beyonce Knowles, Pink and Taylor Swift were some musical guests rocking the event.
Jay-z joined forces with Alicia Keys and performed his brand new song "Empire State of Mind". Changing her red outfit with all-white costume, Lady GaGa appeared on the stage of Radio City Music Hall on September 13 with several backing dancers donning similar clothes. She delivered a medley of her two hit singles, "LoveGame" and "Paparazzi".
Donning a leotard, Beyonce Knowles started her set with "Sweet Dreams" before then singing "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)". Like Beyonce, Pink who sang "Sober" also wore a leotard for her performance. But, she made the outfit a little different as she »

At this Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards, it will be a family affair for the Knowles family. Beyoncé is tied with Lady Gaga for the most nominations this year ("Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)" scored nine nods), and she'll also be performing her latest single "Sweet Dreams" at the big show. Sister Solange, meanwhile, will be one of the artists who will sit in with house band Wale and Ucb on Sunday (a role she'll share with Pitbull and 3Oh!3). Solange has been hard at work jamming with Wale and getting a feel for the Vma set on stage at Radio City Music Hall, but she also told Sway that her and her sister have both spent plenty of time trying to figure out what to wear to the show, which is always one of the most fashion-conscious events of the year.
The Knowles sisters aren't the only »

MTV's landmark show has a long and storied history with the city and returns to home turf on September 13.

It all started in New York in 1984. Ronald Reagan was president. Times Square was a neon-shrouded dump. And MTV invaded Radio City Music Hall for the first ever Video Music Awards. Madonna took the stage in a lacy wedding gown to sing about virginity, Michael Jackson nabbed three Moonmen for "Thriller" and, well, pop culture was never the same again.
With the 2009 show returning to Radio City on September 13 at 9 p.m., we had to take a look back at the many, many ways — from Madonna making out with Britney Spears to hundreds of Slim Shady clones helping Eminem out with his live act — that the VMAs have rocked New York. »

Out of the 16 people on the particularly large cast of Dancing with the Stars this season, singer Mya is probably among those with the most dancing experience. After all, we've seen her strut her stuff, very memorably, on the music video of Lady Marmalade with Christina Aguilera, Pink, and Dwts alum Lil' Kim. Red feathery headdress, red and black corset, dominatrix-style whip, if I remember it correctly. To those who've seen it, one thing is clear: the girl can dance.
Nevertheless, the 29-year-old tells MTV News that all her prior dancing experience are practically useless as she tries to tackle an entirely new genre: ballroom.
