Is someone selling Kurt Cobain's stuff on Craigslist? R. Kelly is planning a sequel to Black Panties, and we get to peer into the mind of Rick Ross.

For quite a while now, Nicki Minaj's fans have heard rumors that the rapper's mother could be dropping a gospel album. Well, it seems like the rumors are true. A snippet of Carol Maraj's "God's Been Good" hit the internet, tinged with soulful synths and a little bit of autotune. [Vibe]

Is someone trying to scam those of us who want a little rock memorabilia? A man who claims to be an old roommate of Kurt Cobain has posted a Craigslist ad, saying he has a box of the late Nirvana frontman's wares. Apparently, Kurt owed him money and he's just trying to get what's due to him. [The Guardian]

When you make an album called Black Panties, what's the most apt name for a sequel? R. Kelly is apparently starting work on White Panties, the follow-up to his most recent album. He may even be tapping Mary J. Blige to collaborate! [AllHipHop]
