:: Hyperactive R&B singer Miguel has unveiled the cover art to Kaleidoscope Dream: The Air Preview (Sept. 11), the second of two preview EPs leading up to his sophomore release on October 2. [That Grape Juice]

:: Speaking of busy R&B singers…rumors abound that Frank Ocean will be performing on the September 15 Saturday Night Live season premiere, just nine days after he makes his VMA debut. [HITS Daily Double]

:: The three members of Pussy Riot who were sentenced to two years in Russian prison are appealing their sentences, and a decision will be made within 10 days. [Billboard]

:: In an interview with the Salt Lake Tribune, of all places, Snoop Dogg/Snoop Lion said that hip-hop is ready to accept a gay rapper in light of Frank Ocean’s coming out. “People are learning how to live and get along more, and accept people for who they are and not bash them or hurt them because they’re different,” he said. [MTV RapFix]

:: Coldplay and Rihanna reportedly will perform at the Paralympics Closing Ceremonies on September 9, where they’ll play their respective hits and link up for their duet “Princess Of China.” We’re wondering if they’ll take a page out of the Spice Girls playbook by being really far away from each other during the entire performance.
