Earlier this year we speculated about rumors of a Kanye West and Rihanna collaborative tour coming this year. The rumors seemed to hold weight as a picture has circulated on social media which advertised the tour, and the tour was confirmed by a source to LA Times’ writer Gerrick D. Kennedy. And who wouldn’t want to see ‘FourFiveSeconds’ live?! We tried not to get our hopes up though, until something was more official and now today the first date has been announced! Although the link has been since deleted by LiveNation (perhaps they posted the link too early), the first announced date of the tour will be July 25th, 2015 in Laululava, Estonia (Europe). Tickets go on sale, at least as originally announced, March 5th. Stay tuned for more information.

Well… we can’t say we were surprised when we heard Danny Brown posted a 10-second Snapchat video of himself getting head. In the past Brown received oral sex from a girl on stage during a concert, so what’s a few extra thousand people sharing that experience as well? We would share the video but we aren’t that kind of website, you can add Brown on Snapchat though (xdannyxbrownx). Check out some Twitter reactions of Danny Brown’s Snapchat sex tape below (maybe the first of its kind for a celebrity).

Pop up stores have really blown up the past couple years, and if there wasn’t already enough reasons to make one, now there’s one more as Kanye West paid a surprise visit to British designer Katie Eary‘s pop up store and turned it into an impromptu listening session for his forthcoming album. Eary took to Twitter less than an hour ago to thank Kanye, and his creative director (Off-White creator) Virgil Abloh, for stopping by. This isn’t the first time the two have met though, as Eary worked with Kanye on his fashion line. In an interview with Life + Times, Eary described the experience was “amazing”, saying that the fashion industry is far too critical of Kanye. Check out some of the tweets about Kanye’s visit below!

My grandfather once shared with me an old saying that goes… “there are two things in the world that everyone loves, rap album covers and red pandas.” Okay… maybe I made that up. But if you don’t like Kanye West album covers and videos of red pandas playing in the snow, then there is seriously something wrong with you. So in honor of my spirit animal and the creativity of rappers, we have took the liberty of photoshopping red pandas into famous rap album covers. Enjoy some of our best attempts, re-imagining the works of Dr. Dre, Kanye West, Drake, Rae Sremmurd and more!

“New sound. New deal. New album. New Era. Its finally coming. #In2015 #MikePosner”, reads an Instagram post from Mike Posner’s Manager, Patrick Cline. In the photo, the ‘Cooler Than Me’ signer is on location for a video or photo shoot, which makes fans very optimistic for the return of Mike Posner. The new album, Pages, is one of our most anticipated album of 2015 and now it looks like the project will come with a new sound and new deal as well. As for the new sound, all we have heard is good things, most specifically from representatives of Beats Music and Philymack Inc. It also looks like Mike may even be working with Odd Futre?

Here at The Early Registration we like to pride ourselves on our music knowledge, to stay polished on our musical expertise our new feature is a little game of musical “6 Degrees”. For those who are unfamiliar, six degrees of separation is the theory that everyone in the world is connected by six or fewer steps, so we are now taking the liberty of connecting musicians by songs and features, who you would never think could be connected. This week our 6˚ piece is in anticipation of comedic rapper Lil Dicky’s upcoming Spring 2015 Professional Rapper Tour, which kicks off next month in California. For those who don’t know, Lil Dicky has received quite the buzz after his ‘Lemme Freak‘ video (one of our favorite videos of 2014), and through his raps LD is on pursuit to become the next LD (Larry David of course). And who better to connect Dicky to than his favorite rapper and fellow non-gentile, Drake? This may be a little hard as Dicky has only been rapping ‘professionally’ for about a year, but we’re up for the challenge.

Although it appeared that the song may have been scraped, it now seems as Kanye West’s anticipated track ‘All Day’ is still coming out. Earlier today Kanye paid a visit to The Breakfast Club and told Charlamagne, DJ Envy and Angela Yee that he was working (that day) on the track, with Vic Mensa and Q-Tip. Also today, Vic Mensa tweeted about the track. Originally, in his interview with GQ, Ye told fans that ‘All Day’ would be the first single from his forthcoming album. However, so far we have only heard a rough draft of the track that leaked. It may be a blessing though that it hasn’t came out yet, since now Vic Mensa is contributing to the final cut of the song.
