It’s the guys you love to hate. Here’s the first single and video for Styles P’s new album, Float. Produced entirely by Scram Jones, the project drops on April 16th.

Yesterday morning, Big Daddy Kane and his group Las Supper appeared on Good Day NY. After a brief interview from the lovely Rosanna Scotto, they performed their song “I Believe In Love Again”.

This track isn’t featured on Havoc’s upcoming 13, but nonetheless, he and Slum Village keep their dollars rolling in on their collabo. 13 drops May 7. Cop the track here. hhnm

While previewing her new song, “Grown Woman”, Bey reflects on her most memorable video looks for Pepsi’s “Live For Now” campaign. Kinda reminds us of Mr. Carter’s Rhapsody ad a few years back. The Timbaland-produced song debuts next Monday. Behind the scenes clip after the jump.

YMCMB’s latest addition, T.Rone, revisits his single and brings along Juicy J, Capo, Joey and Raheem DeVaughn for the official remix.

With Harry Fraud on the beat, Joey Bada$$ opens up Peter Rosenberg’s upcoming mixtape, New York Renaissance. Hear the rest of the project when it drops in full today. info

During yesterday’s broadcast of MLBTV, sports analyst Bob Costas gave props to Ludacris after reciting his “Hip Hop Quotable” lyric. Someone give this man some chicken and beer. “Now I roll up torpedoes, get blunted with rastas/ For a hefty fee, I’m on your record like Bob Costas” In other news, if you follow Luda on Instagram, you may have seen his “Now That’s Ludicrous” pics. Last night, he brought it over to Conan. Peep the skit below. Very funny.

It was slime time over at 106 today as V12 took to the mic for this week’s “The Backroom” freestyle. Huuh!

With DJ Premier on the 1s and 2s, Troy Ave, A$AP Ferg, Torae and Special Ed brought today’s RapFix Live to a close with a cipher. No cursing guys.
