Last Wednesday 2 Chainz brought his Based On A TRU Story Tour to The Glasshouse in Pomona, CA. Small venue for such a monster of a show.

Frank Ocean has had one hell of a year as a new artist, and he wasnt even nominated in the category. It's ok because what the mainstream doesn't know is that Odd Future affiliate has been named the opening act on part of Coldplay's Europe tour. Aside from that he will release the followup to his unofficially official debut album nostalgia, ultra. Frank Ocean has already been recognized as one of the hottest writers in the game and it's only the beginning.
You might have heard scruffy west side rapper, Speak featured on tracks with Juicy J and A$AP Mob. He let his face shine when he made his cameo in the viral video Gucci Gucci by affiliate Kreayshawn. A few years ago before Wiz Khalifa was Young Khalifa aka Stoner Of The Year, Speak actually toured with the Taylor Gang and opened shows for them. This morning he releases a fresh album for free. Happy Valentines Day from Speakz!!!

This morning I woke up to a ridiculous email from the music platform SongKick. It said that Bon Iver, infamous for his haunting features on Kanye West's last album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, will be playing a show next week at an undisclosed location in Los Angeles, CA. This news threw me off, and what's more is no one knows how to get tickets yet. Next In Show will find a way. Another strange thing is under Additional Details all it says is Tour Name: Awesome Awesomeness Either way, something amazing is going down Thursday February 16, 2012. Stay Tuned...
