When we last caught up with Cypress Hill, a group that could politely be described as rabble-rousing or antiauthoritarian, they seemed to have mellowed, performing in the video for Marc Anthony and the Pitbull-assisted video for the single "Armada Latina."

One video later and the rappers seem to have gotten all that mellow out of their system, returning with "Rise Up," from the album of the same name. This deeply funky track features Tom Morello adding some of his trademark "chicken scratch gone metal" guitar lines. The end product is not unlike something you might hear from Morello's outfit, Rage Against The Machine.

Check out the video below. "Rise Up" is out now.

After watching Trey Songz's brand-new "MTV Unplugged" performance, you'll probably agree that the R&B singer is no flash in the pan. He didn't climb his way up the fame ladder without help. Throughout his career, Songz has excelled at the art of collaboration, mixing his distinctive charms and skills with other artists.

Check out the 5 best Trey Songz collaborations:

1.) "Successful" featuring Drake
Songz has been a staple on Drake's lauded mixtapes, and "Successful" is the duo's signature tune.

2.) "Say Aah" featuring Fabolous
Fab's verse on this single from Trey's "Ready" album takes this party-starting anthem to ecstatic heights.

3.) "Yesterday" featuring Toni Braxton
Trey joins the R&B diva on this sultry break-up song.

4.) "LOL :) " featuring Gucci Mane
The Atlanta rapper joins Trey in this celebration about the joys of text.

5.) "Gotta Make It," featuring Twista
A vintage look from Trey. On "Gotta Make It" (from his 2005 album of the same name), Trey battles with the rapid fire raps of Twista.

Known for enormous and pristine rock sound, Canadian hard-rockers Three Days Grace offer up a lo-fi visual palette for "The Good Life" video. We see a lot of grainy, handheld footage, seemingly taken from home movies. This imagery is intercut with shots of the band performing the chorus of the aspirational anthem. The second single from the band's album "Life Starts Now," "The Good Life" is a follow-up to its previous vid, "Break."

Think you have the largest collection of Justin Bieber merch? Think again.

We've just uncovered a new piece of limited-edition, fan-created, J.B.-inspired wearable art. (Wow, that was a mouthful!) This Bieb Flag T-shirt is a hand-screened mashup of Justin Bieber and the signature Black Flag four-bar logo. This shirt is so badass, it almost makes us want to start a circle pit!

The tee is available through Josiah Hughes' Etsy page and comes in sizes small, medium and large. All tees are also printed on Hanes T-shirts.

In a gym somewhere, Henry Rollins is probably shaking his head, disapprovingly.

Our good buddies over at Idolator have unearthed a new Ke$ha track called "Lost Weekend" -- and we're completely smitten! The song is laced with '80s-inspired dance beats reminiscent of "Electric Youth"-era Debbie Gibson.

In other words, the song is a total G-rated party jam -- minus one or two F-bombs thrown in for good measure. At long last, the "Tik Tok" singer has taken a break from chugging Jack Daniel's and decided to lay out in the sun and sip a bottle of Bartles & Jaymes -- metaphorically speaking, of course.

Oddly enough, at the end of the song, it sounds like Ke$ha keeps repeating the word "Faygo" over and over again. Does this mean what we think it means? Is Ke$ha an undercover Juggalo*?

[Puts hands together and starts to pray.]

To hear the newly found Ke$ha song "Lost Weekend," head over to Idolator and keep your ears peeled for the not-so-hidden soda reference toward the end of the track. To see the unintentionally hilarious video for Insane Clown Posse's "Miracles," watch it here IMMEDES.

* That's an Insane Clown Posse superfan, for those not familiar with the Dark Carnival.

When Patrick Stump showed up at the Climate Rally/Earth Day Celebration in Washington, D.C., this past weekend, we couldn't help but notice how svelte the former Fall Out Boy frontman has become over the last 12 months. In fact, we almost didn't recognize him!

Call us crazy, but we kinda liked when the pop-rocker had a lil' more meat on his bones. What about you? Has Patrick Stump's makeover given him a newfound sexiness -- or left him completely unrecognizable?

Thankfully, one thing that hasn't changed is Stump's fancy footwork. Check out his Earth Day rendition of the Bobby Womack classic "If You Think You're Lonely Now" in the video below.

Yesterday, we premiered the first part of Buzzworthy's Fan Interview with Coheed And Cambria. The New York prog-rockers talked about their new album, "Year Of The Black Rainbow," the overarching narrative that runs through all their albums and the band's inherent darkness.

Today we have Part II. In the below video, the guys from Coheed continue to answer the questions from you, the fans. They discuss their musical influences (everything from Nine Inch Nails to Kool & The Gang), and whether their concept albums might inspire a movie some day. Most important, the band members address Claudio Sanchez's hair and what made the singer-guitarist trim his mane.

Check out Part II of Coheed And Cambria's Buzzworthy Fan Interview below. You can watch
Part I here.

Courtney Love is releasing a new album, "Nobody's Daughter," with her old band, Hole, today. The grunge goddess appeared at a New York City record store to play acoustic and sign copies of the album yesterday. She was was rocking an uncharacteristically sunny demeanor with a frilly yellow top and a big, happy smile. While occasionally she can be found in states of emotional and physical, um, unrest, Love was the picture of professionalism, pedaling her wares to fans who've been waiting a long time for new music from the "Doll Parts" singer.

"Nobody's Daughter" is the first Hole album in 12 years, belatedly following up the shiny pop of "Celebrity Skin."
