Odd Future rumoured to sign with Sony Red
Recent comments towards the current position of hip-hop megasensations, Odd Future (OFWGKTA) have manifested speculation towards a possible signing with label, Sony RED.  The collective's manager inspired such thoughts through this recent statement: “It’s based on getting the distribution deal we’ve always envisioned that allows the group to “sign themselves” to their own company and keep their masters. They will have 100% creative control of all aspects of their music, art, and release schedule with no 3rd party participation in outside business. Freedom and ownership was the whole point. Red and Sony know that its in everyone’s best interest to maintain the group’s authenticity and control. They built it, they deserve it. There’s no cheesy hooks or fluorescent liquor product placements in the works.. It’s about to be fun.. and different.. “ http://oddfuture.com/

Members of Brokencyde assault Punchline drummer
After Brokencyde's show at the Smiling Moose in Pittsburgh on Monday night, an altercation between members of the band and Punchline drummer Cory Muro occurred, which resulted in Muro bloodied and needing to receive three staples in his head, as well as Muro's friend Johnny Grushecky's nose being broken. In an interview with Altpress, Muro said: "Me and both of my bands have been playing music our whole lives. It is our lives. We don't have jobs, we do nothing but play music and play shows. We don't agree with the so-called music Brokencyde make. When we saw the singer outside their bus, I told him I don't like his band’s music or the messages in it.
