TV Mania's Nick Rhodes & Warren CuccurulloWay back in 1996, when the Interweb was scarcely more than a jumble of ones and zeroes, visionary Duran Duran keyboardist Nick Rhodes and Warren Cuccurullo, who was Duran Duran's guitarist at the time, started a surprisingly prophetic experimental/electronic side-project called TV Mania. It took 17 long years, but finally TV Mania's first proper album, Bored With Prozac and the Internet?, got an official release this year--and the music's sonics and subject matter resonate even more now than they would have during the 1990s' startup era. A pastiche- and loop-heavy concept album about a pharmaceutical- and video-game-addicted family that "gives away their freedom to scientists in exchange for reality show fame," TV Mania's Bored… is anything but boring, and it sounds shockingly of-the-moment in 2013.

Aerosmith will play the last two shows of their Australian tour without bassist Tom Hamilton, who has gone back home to recover from a chest infection. In his place, the band flew in Dirty Angels founder David Hull to Melbourne for last night’s show at the Melbourne Myer Music Bowl.

Hull is expected to remain with Aerosmith for at least the final two dates of their Australian tour, May 1 in Brisbane and May 4 in Melbourne.

Ray J features Kim Kardashian lookalike in "I Hit it First" video.

Ray J features a girl who looks strikingly similar to former girlfriend Kim Kardashian in his new "I Hit it First" video.

Even though the singer has waffled about whether or not the song is about his former flame, the video features Ray J and the video's model non-explicitly recreating scenes from the former couple's celebrity sex tape, which was released in 2007.

In the "I Hit it First" video, Ray J and the model appear in bed together and later on a private jet.

The video also features Ray J interacting with a hologram of the Kardashian lookalike, and Ray J and collaborator Bobby Brackins performing in an airplane hangar in front of a private jet.

President Obama made plenty of jokes at his own expense and at the expense of others at the 2013 White House Correspondents' Dinner last week.

But his jab at Jay-Z was particularly noteworthy given that rappers typically do not make it into remarks made by the President.

At the Dinner last week, the President took a shot at Jay-Z, referencing the artist's popular "99 Problems" single.

"Some things are beyond my control," the President said. "For example, this whole controversy about Jay-Z going to Cuba. It's unbelievable. I've got 99 problems and now Jay-Z's one."
