The Weeknd takes a stroll through the streets of his native Toronto in the new video for “King Of The Fall.”

While the melancholy clip is nowhere near as NSFW as his last visual for “Often,” it does feature the requisite amount of beautiful women, in between shots of various T-Dot landmarks like Queen Street.

As the Jean-Michel Basquiat-coifed singer croons about having “all my hoes trained,” night falls and he, obviously, happens upon an underground party.

In the waning seconds of the video, after the party turn up turns down, Mr. Abel Tesfaye walks contemplatively alone down one of his city’s blocks, dressed in a Supreme/North Face coat.

The Weeknd will be hitting the road for the King of the Fall Tour with Jhené Aiko and Schoolboy Q starting September 19 in Brooklyn.

Timing is everything, just ask Problem.

One day after the release of Game’s “Don’t Shoot,” a poignant tribute to Michael Brown, the teen slain by a Ferguson, Missouri police officer, that the Compton rapper appeared on, he also dropped his new mixtape, 354: Lift Off.

The 14-track set is the perfect send off for the Diamond Lane America MC, who plans to hit the road on the 21-city “Lift Off Tour,” which lands in Santa Barbara, CA on September 3.

Presented by the LA Leakers, Problem’s latest features guest spots by Diamond Lane Music Group labelmate Bad Lucc, Bobby Shmurda and Childish Gambino, who hopped on the certified banger, “Dollarz And Sense.”

“Rappin’ West side steppin’, East Side mind state with 3k’s Andre I’m an outcast, 100 um, in the house stash,” he raps on the song, which borrows the beat from DJ Quik’s classic of the same name.

354: Lift Off is available for download on DatPiff here.

You know what’s the worst? Like the absolute worst?? When you already have a baby sister and your mom announces that she is, drumroll please, pregnant again. One mom apparently knew that her son was going to have a somewhat averse reaction to the news of his new sibling, so she filmed the whole thing.

This is pure comedic gold, people. Get this kid a stage ASAP. Let’s begin with the news straight out: she’s pregnant

Awww! What were you thinking??

He can’t understand why his mom had to “go and get another baby” because she already has two. Valid point, three’s company right?

This is exasperating!

Little kids using big words—flawlessly at that!—never gets old.

But why is it so exasperating? Because with another kid in the mix, he’s afraid that the new baby will come between him and his baby sister.

What does she think about all this anyway?

Honestly, she looks pretty stoked… must be because she doesn’t realize how annoying her crying is. Which leads us to the next question—is it a boy or a girl on the way? Because according to this kid, boy crying is far worse than girl crying.

A response to the future crying of his unborn sibling

But it looks like there’s nothing he can do to stop the coming tragedy at this point. So, final thoughts on the situation?

Buy me some earplugs

Resigned, yet firm.

After spending the last few days behind bars, Jeezy has posted bail, MTV News has learned.

The rapper, along with five others, was arrested on Sunday in California on weapons charges. His bail was set at $1 million.

“All six men have posted bail and are currently being processed,” CTE’s Steve “Steve-O” Carless told MTV News Thursday evening (August 28). “They will be out shortly.”

The rapper pleaded not guilty to the charges in court on Tuesday, after police claim to have found an AK-47 on his tour bus.

The Under the Influence tour stop was cancelled Sunday, which was two days after a 38-year-old man was killed backstage at a prior show in California on the tour.

Jeezy’s next court date is scheduled for September 5.

Fans of Starbucks‘s Pumpkin Spice Latte salivated as the coffee chain released its holiday staple today, much earlier than the usual fall rollout. It’s kind of a bold move since most of the country is still having triple digit heat days and taking sno-cone baths, but hey, when you have a cult following for a drink, why not go Venti and give the customers what they want??

Starbucks

With the early release also comes some Pumpkin Spice Latte news—because what’s more important?—and that news is that the latte contains no pumpkin. Zero. Pumpkin.

Food Babe

According to Vani Hari, a blogger for Food Babe, the drink consists of these ingredients: Caramel color level IV (made with ammonia.. and it’s bad enough that Starbucks is already planning to phase it out because of Hari’s complaints), 50 grams of sugar, “Monsanto Milk” which is milk from cows that are fed GMO corn, soy and cottonseed milk (that contains Carrageenan stabilizer linked to intestinal inflammation and cancer, so yay!), artificial flavors like petroleum, and sadly for vegans, not even the soy milk is safe, as it contains condensed conventional milk.

And again, no pumpkin.

This certainly isn’t an attack on Starbucks, their coffee powers most of America! Nor is it an attack on the beautiful, scrumptious PSL—it’s just a wake up call that things aren’t always what they seem. And yes, Starbucks doeshave many other drinks that are much more safe and (somewhat) healthy, but this is pretty ridiculous ...

On this day 51 years ago, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his now-iconic “I Have A Dream” speech during the “March on Washington.”

Over a half century later, it seems that Dr. King’s “dream” — one of justice, equality, and peace for all, regardless of background — is as relevant as ever.

In the speech, the civil rights leader championed a day when all people could join together as one to exclaim, “Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”

Yet, as recent events in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting of Michael Brown have brought to the national discourse, despite the freedoms allotted to all citizens of the country, not everyone feels they’re given an equal right to them.

It’s a sentiment J. Cole expressed in his tribute to the 18-year-old, “Be Free.”

“All we wanna do is be free,” Cole laments on the track.

Be sure to take some time out of your day to watch the full speech below, and then visit MTV’s Look Different to see how you can work to eliminate bias from your life.

David LeCours is a die-hard Britney Spears fan, and he found the strength to come out of the closet get through an extremely tough period in his life through the music of the 32-year-old pop star. But he never expected that sharing this with her would lead to his own letter of response from Britney herself.

LeCours wrote Spears a letter, which he explained on his Instagram:
The letter explained how she helped me get through a real tough period in my life these past couple of months, and I wanted to end it all but she made me strong.

Last Tuesday (August 21) at Britney’s “Piece of Me” residency shows at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, LeCours was able to meet his idol, and it wasn’t by accident.

LeCours said as he was leaving the building where the meet and greet was held, Britney’s body guard ran and stopped him and said Britney requested his address so she could respond because his letter meant so much to her. He added, “Thank you for everything Britney. I wouldn’t be able to be so confident and open about my sexuality if your music and you didn’t help me.”

Spears followed through, and this is the letter she wrote to LeCours, which he shared on his Instagram.

It’s very refreshing to hear Spears name being mentioned for such positive things as of late, including surprising a terminally ill patient whose dream was to see her perform live, so she flew ...

Fox

Ranked solely for the enjoyment we got out of Mark Duplass’ pronunciation of her name: men-oo-NOS. Points off for stealing Mindy’s sexy santa bit.
