Denaun Porter (aka Mr. Porter aka Kon Artis), is a well-known record producer and a former member of the popular Detroit rap group D12. The 34-year-old hip-hop mogul is also considered one of Eminem's current hype-men. Details surrounding Slim Shady's highly-anticipated 2013 album still remain a mystery... but if fans want any sort of info, Mr. Porter's the guy to go to on Twitter. He's the dude that confirmed Eminem's eighth studio record wouldn't be released on July 2... instead, fans can likely expect fresh beats to hit airwaves this fall. But has all the hype surrounding Shady's new album inspired Mr. Porter to record his OWN solo album? Rumors surrounding Porter's alleged debut album "The Memo" have been swirling online since early 2012... but is the rapper (mostly known for his hit collaborations) ready to confirm an actual release date? Perhaps even this upcoming October... read on for details! Read More »

July 2 has officially come and gone... and STILL there's no confirmed details surrounding Eminem's highly-anticipated 2013 album. At this point, fans can only hope for Shady's fresh beats to hit the airwaves sometime this fall. Meanwhile, everything else surrounding Em's eighth studio record continues to remain a mystery... no confirmed album name, tracklist, collaborations, NOTHING. Even so, Twitter fans remain hyped about Shady's new music (his first since 2010's "Recovery"). While fans continue to wait in avid anticipation, Mstars has some fun Eminem updates for you! Check out an awesome, "Without Me"-inspired Maid of Honor toast below, performed by the amusingly talented Jennifer Gabrielli. Perhaps she'll be Eminem's new protege (a la Skylar Grey)? Read More »
Skylar Grey recently released the fourth single off of her upcoming album "Don't Look Down," currently scheduled for an official July 9 release date. "White Suburban" is a beautifully emotional track that demonstrates Grey's soulfully raw talent as a singer/songwriter. Twitter fans can't wait for the release of Grey's follow-up album to 2006's hit record "Like Blood Like Honey." Given that the 27-year-old songstress is considered one of Eminem's proteges, is Slim Shady waiting to release his own new 2013 album until the hype surrounding "Don't Look Down" cools off a bit?

Janelle Monae has released another teaser for the "Dance Apocalyptic" music video. Like the first single "Q.U.E.E.N" the set will heavily feature black and white stripes (these ones are vertical). More importantly, it appears that Monae has gotten rid of her signature pompadour for the clip. Monae rocks long, crimped hair in the seemingly "Hey Ya"-inspired The Electric Lady video. Read More »

Sorry, Slim Shady fans, it doesn't look like Eminem's new 2013 album will drop on July 2 like initially suggested. Apparently, fresh beats from the "Without Me" rapper will hit airwaves sometime this upcoming fall (hopefully). But here's a fun-fact... "Hart of Dixie" beauty Rachel Bilson recently admitted in an interview with British Cosmopolitan magazine that she'd love to bust-out a duet with Eminem... the 31-year-old starlet always secretly wanted to pursue a career in rapping! Hmm... perhaps a surprise collaboration's already secretly in the works? Read More »
Songwriter-extraordinaire turned singer in her own right Bonnie McKee just released hit song "American Girl." The frequent Katy Perry collaborator (she brought us "California Gurls," "Part Of Me" and "Teenage Dream" and "Last Friday Night") can't seem to dodge questions about her famous pal. Where journalists should be asking pop music's secret weapon about her own music, McKee continues to field questions about Perry. We did learn a bit about Perry's new album, though, which McKee says will be more "grown up." Read More »
