:: Snoop Lion (formerly known as Snoop Dogg) has now taken up a new moniker – Snoopzilla. The rapper-turned-reggae artist will be recording under the new name for an upcoming funk album with Dâm-Funk. Their collaboration LP is set to release on December 10. [Pitchfork]

:: Nirvana, KISS, LL Cool J, Hall and Oates and N.W.A. join many others for the 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees. The 29th annual ceremony will take place in New York City in April 2014, and is scheduled to air on HBO in May. [SPIN]

:: Many people went up in arms about Robin Thicke‘s racy “Blurred Lines” video, and Charlotte Church is the latest person to talk about it. The Welsh singer recently said the video is “crass and misogynistic” and called the R&B crooner “a mediocre artist.” Ouch! [Gigwise]
