Chris Brown continues to express himself through art, but this time with a crazy new piece on his neck! The R&B Pop star hit up Black Banditz on Melrose last night to get the work done by Peter Koskela (aka Petertattooist). The new ink was described as “an indian chief transforming into a wolf.” It sure is, and it sure looks painful, after getting something like that, he may as well finish that torso.

Ashanti has delivered a surprise for the BET Awards weekend. The R&B chanteuse recruits two of the hottest young rap stars in the game, Meek Mill & French Montana, for “No One Greater.” An Irv Gotti produced cut, which acts as the second single off her forthcoming album Braveheart, which may or may not come out this year, as the dates have been coming and going. Most recently Amazon updated the release date to early 2013, but we assume Ashanti and her new Written Entertainment label are still working on the right marketing and don’t want to stress any date just yet. Anyways, what’s more important than the song, so press play and let us know what you think??
