2. A Wu-Tang themed bike exists and it's awesome
Here's the thing about fans of legendary musical groups, like Wu-Tang: they're tough to predict. For example, Drake is over here calling his latest love song "Wu-Tang Forever" and people are PISSED. To quote one outraged fan "DRAKE NEED TO BE SHOT FOR PUTTING WUTANG ON THE NAME OF THAT GAY ASS SONG!" Then you have the State Bicycle Co. who has collaborated with the group to make a Wu-Tang themed bike and everyone's going nuts. Well, maybe not everyone but regardless, it's awesome. Honestly, it's about time that all those who regularly ride bikes like paperboys, delivery men and Elliott from E.T. get a little more respect. I mean, can you imagine how much cooler E.T. would be if there was a little Wu-Tang in it!?

4. Listen to a recording of Paris Hilton's first DJ set
Isn't Paris Hilton great guys? She's so multi-talented: actor, entrepreneur, author, fashion designer, singer. I mean, what can't this woman do! Aside from all that, Paris has also gotten heavily into DJing (I know, how DOES she do it all?!?!?!) and has secured a residency at Amnesia Ibiza nightclub. Now, I know you're probably just livid thinking, "How in the world did I miss this?" Well don't worry because her first set has been made available to stream online. Jackpot! Am I right? So clear your calendar, because you'll probably be hypnotized by Paris' perfect DJ talents for the rest of the weekend.

9. Sigur Rós will appear in the next season of Game of Thrones
After having a guest spot on The Simpsons recently, Sigur Rós are now making an appearance on another popular TV show, Game of Thrones. While details surrounding what the trio will do are scarce, EW did confirm that Jón Þór “Jónsi” Birgisson, Georg Hólm and Orri Páll Dýrason are all definitely shooting an episode for the show's next season. I don't watch Game of Thrones so I'm not familiar with the set up of the show at all, but when I first heard this, I just imagined that during every climatic point in the episode, the three of them would be off in a distance and they'd start singing “Varúð.” Clearly, I'm no TV showrunner, but if anyone working for GOT is reading this and they still haven't finalized the script, soak that idea in.
10. Here's Drake's trailer for "Nothing Was The Same"
11. Prince surprises Janelle Monáe with a singing telegram
I'll admit it, I'm in a heavy Janelle Monáe phase. I can't get enough of her! Everything she does is wildly fantastic while still being so fucking cool. Ugh, she's so fucking cool. I mean, she even has Prince sending her surprise telegrams to congratulate her on her fantastic new album, The Electric Lady. As captured in this clip (fast forward to around the 2:08 mark), after a recent show a man carrying flowers is brought into Janelle's dressing room, where he sings her an amended, personalized version of Prince's "Kiss." He then tells her that he was actually sent by the man himself to which Janelle reacts in the damn cutest way, stating she can't believe Prince did this for her. God, she's the best and now I'm going to spend my whole weekend just Googling clips of her and trying to get my hair to look like anything like hers.

13. You can now get Miguel, Jay Z and Drake memes on your polo
It's easy to love Internet memes, especially when they're based on your favorite celebrity. Jay Z awkwardly jumping into the pool? Yes please, can I have some more? Miguel and is infamous leg-drop on an audience member? Hit me with summa dat all day. Drake outfitted in Dada, looking goofy as hell? LOL where do I sign up? Luckily someone else out there understands this fascination and has taken it to the next level by creating Polo shirts featuring pictures of these memes in place of where the Polo logo would be. Because nothing says high-end couture like having this on your chest!

15. Miley Cyrus is officially on the "Black Skinhead" remix
Have you forgotten about Miley Cyrus' VMA performance? Do you remember that? How she wore basically nothing and danced around with a foam finger (RIP normal foam finger use forever) and then twerked all up and down Robin Thicke? You guys remember that right? Let me know if you need the video or a picture if not, I think I could find one. Anyways, after that all went down, Cyrus didn't take her foam finger and oversized teddy bears to bar. No, what she did was far, far worse. She went to a studio. With Kanye West. To record a remix of "Black Skinhead." It's official and it's happening and we'll all be haunted by it very soon.
While talking to RapFix's Sway, Miley's producer Mike Will Made It confirmed the collaboration saying "It’s about done, we’re just touching the beat up a little bit. It’s sounding crazy." You know what's sounding crazy? Me, after hearing this news. I don't want anything to do with this, no way no thanks.

17. If you want Danny Brown in Canada, you should sign this petition
Danny Brown is currently on tour with Action Bronson for their "2 High 2 Die" tour and while attempting to travel to Canada for two shows, the rapper encountered a little trouble. According to Brown's tweets, he was denied entry into the country and while he didn't state why exactly, he remind us that it wasn't the first time. Understandably, Danny's fans are pissed and have decided to take action by sharing an online petition which, with enough signatures, will give Brown entry into Canada to perform. Look, I think this is a great gesture and all, but this petition isn't going to let Danny Brown into Canada. The only way he's getting access to that sweet sweet land to our North is if he changes his hair. I mean, have you ever seen anyone looking eccentric in Canada?! No one does. Let's review:
Avril Lavigne: straight as can be. Nothing out of place here.
18.
Drake: smooth as hell.
19.
Justin Bieber: goofy but still fresh to death.
20.
Clearly, Canada's got a very high level of acceptable style and until Danny learns a thing or two, maybe washes his hair and slicks it back all Patrick Bateman like, no amount of signatures are gonna change anything.
