Billy Corgan on the Kanye/Beck Situation: “I don’t care who it is, I would’ve knocked them out”
We all saw what happened when Beck won his Grammy for Best Album of the Year. Kanye walked off stage before making too big of a scene, but the message was clear, and we all knew what was going through ‘Ye’s head. But what would you have done if you were Beck? Smashing Pumpkins lead singer […] The post Billy Corgan on the Kanye/Beck Situation: “I don’t care who it is, I would’ve knocked them out” appeared first on Pigeons & Planes.

Premiere: Dead Right! – “Rising Tide (Gianni Lee Remix)”
It’s always weird getting introduced to a song via a remix, but that’s what happened with this song from Dead Right!, the Los Angeles duo comprised of singer Graham Knoxx and producer/instrumentalist Alex Goose. They got producer Gianni Lee to remix their debut single “Rising Tide” into an eclectic, dance-friendly jam led by the catchy vocals and […] The post Premiere: Dead Right! – “Rising Tide (Gianni Lee Remix)” appeared first on Pigeons & Planes.
Watch Kid Cudi’s Appearance on “Comedy Bang! Bang!”
Seeing how artists react to the slightly offbeat humor of Comedy Bang! Bang! is always interesting. We saw Schoolboy Q take his turn on the couch, and this time Scott and Reggie get Kid Cudi as a guest. Watch a short clip above. Cudi is currently working on his album MOTM3.

Charles Hamilton Signs New Deal With Republic Records
“Charles Hamilton is officially back,” reads a press release that Republic Records sent out today. In the past years, Charles Hamilton has flirted with a comeback, but it’s never felt entirely real.

Listen to ZelooperZ Cover Nirvana’s “Negative Creep”
While we were planning this Nirvana covers album, we reached out to ZelooperZ to do the cover art since we knew he was a talented visual artist in addition to being a dope rapper. He made the cover art for us (below), but to our surprise, he also sent this insane version of Nirvana’s “Negative Creep.” With brutal, punishing production […] The post Listen to ZelooperZ Cover Nirvana’s “Negative Creep” appeared first on Pigeons & Planes.

Video: Lucki Eck$ – “Boomin’”
Lucki Eck$ makes a hypnotizing kind of hip-hop. His music feels hazy, disconnected, and euphoric, and this video matches the vibe of Plu2o Nash’s beat and Lucki’s sedated flow nicely. Look out for more new music from Lucki soon, and if you haven’t downloaded his Alternative Trap mixtape yet, get it here.
