Extra! Extra! Get Your New Coldplay Here!
We're still nearly two months away from when Coldplay's fourth album, Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, drops (June 17 in the United States), but today, the band is throwing fans a bone by releasing a song from the album to download for one week only. The song is called "Violet Hill" and is the eighth track on the album that is supposedly taking the band in a new creative direction.
In addition to the early download today, the band will also play two free shows in support of the new album, one in London and one at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Music Video: Kanye Feat. Chris Martin, "Homecoming"
Chris Martin of Coldplay fame is a popular guy in the land of hip-hop. He popped up on a track from Jay-Z's 2006 comeback album Kingdom Come, and he teamed up with Kanye West for "Homecoming" on Kanye's most recent album, Graduation.
The new black-and-white video for "Homecoming," which features Kanye and Chris Martin (as mostly an outline of himself), is a refreshing change of pace from some recent videos that seem like frantic strobe-lit messes of neon colors.
Kanye West and Chris Martin Collaboration Coming Soon
I was excited after merely hearing rumors about a Kanye West and Chris Martin collaboration, so now that the news has been confirmed, I have very high hopes for this interesting (and handsome) partnership. According to NME, West and Coldplay's Martin are teaming up on a track called "Graduation," which will appear on West's third album, due out in September.
Also called Graduation, the new album is West's first since 2005's groundbreaking Late Registration.

Good Hair: A Funny, Informative Doc For Everyone
Chris Rock's first shot at a documentary was spurred on by a simple question his daughter asked: "Daddy, why don't I have good hair?" Good Hair is Rock's quest to find out what that is, and why we — men and women, black and white — care so much.
It's not a race relations angle as much as the trailer makes it seem, but rather an investigation into the phenomenon his two young daughters are growing up into: that straight European hair is what's desirable, beautiful, and worth lots of money and pain to get.
