This week kicked off with footage of Solange Knowles attacking Jay Z in an elevator while Beyoncé stood back watching leaked from Standard Hotel. Since the initial reports, rumors began circulating that Rihanna's afterparty and Dame Dash's ex-wife Rachel Roy caused the family strife. The Knowles sisters exchanged subliminal shots via Instagram, a Standard Hotel employee was fired, and conspiracy theories and hilarious memes made their rounds on the Internet.

Cam'Ron and A-Trak gave us a break from the Carter-Knowles family drama by getting Dipset together for the "Dipshits" music video. With Juelz Santana on the hook, a Jim Jones cameo, production by Just Blaze, and a signature Dame Dash rant to close out the song the video brings you back to Dipset in their prime. 

Another Carter who made headlines this week was Lil Wayne, who released a new song called "D'usse" and is flawlessly keeping his promise to fans about working harder this year after being snubbed from two major award shows in 2013. This week also marked the posthumous return of Michael Jackson with the release of Xscape, an album put together by his estate along with executive producer and Epic Records chairman L.A. Reid. Check out all that and more on What The Hell Just Happened In Music This Week?

After teasing new music, OB OBrien returns today with two new songs, with one featuring Drake. On "2 On/Thotful," Drizzy and OB spit some fierce bars over a pretty wild beat from DJ Mustard, which was originally used by Tinashe with ScHoolBoy Q. OB hits fans with the solo joint for "Hazelton Trump," proving that he can hold his own over some dynamic production. OVO SZN isn't slowing down anytime soon we suppose. —Zach Frydenlund
