Why did the family of the late jazz legend Thelonius Monk not approve of a biopic about his life starring Yasiin Bey? 

 Did Jay-Z reveal that Watch The Throne 2 is coming on his new song with Kanye West? 

 

Kanye West had a party for his DONDA album in Atlanta Thursday night. Pusha T, Lil Baby, Travis Scott and more have appearances on the album. The most surprising collaboration is his reunion with Jay-Z on “Heaven and Hell.” The two have not been on the same song since Drake’s “Pop Style” from 2016. Lyrically it sounds like a conversation about spirituality and church. DONDA will be officially released in August. 

 

The 63rd Grammy Awards took place at the Los Angeles Convention center with Trevor Noah as the host. There were performances from Bruno Mars with anderson.paak, Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B. Beyonce made history and became the woman with the most Grammys after taking her home her 28th one.  She joined Megan The Stallion onstage for their joint win for Best Rap Song for “Savage” which Jay-Z also won his 23rd Grammy for because he helped write the song. Their daughter Blue Ivy became the second-youngest winner ever at 9-years old for Best Music Video for “Brown Skin Girl.” Megan Thee Stallion became the first woman to win Best Rap Song. Ice-T’s Body Count took the award for Best Metal Performance. Nas won his first Grammy after 14 nominations over his almost 30-year career. Fantastic Negrito picked up his third Grammy for Contemporary Blues Album. Fans questioned why Taylor Swift became the first woman to win album of the year three times and why Billie Eilish won Record Of The Year two years in a row.
