Lil' Wayne Debuts New Single!
Lil Wayne dominated New York's hip-hop radio stations on Tuesday night, when the Cash Money Records superstar conducted an interview on Hot 97, and almost simultaneously, his new single, "Right Above It," featuring Drake, premiered on Power 105. The song is the first effort from Lil Wayne's forthcoming EP, I'm Not a Human Being, slated for release on September 27 (Lil Wayne's birthday). During his Hot 97 interview with Funkmaster Flex, Wayne said he recorded the music for his upcoming EP before turning himself in to serve a yearlong prison sentence. "Yes, it's gonna drop before Carter IV, only on the Internet," Wayne said over the phone. "This is stuff that I recorded right before I came here."

VMA Nominations Announced
The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards nominees have been officially announced with Lady Gaga leading with 13 nods(the most in VMAs history), and Eminem following close behind with eight nominations. Gaga said, "I'm so honored for all the little monsters and self-professed freaks of the universe, to have more VMA nominations in a single year than any artist in MTV history," she said in a statement. "Ironically, I'm even more proud it's an unlucky number: 13." Other big name nominees include Katy Perry, who is up for Best Female Video, alongside Gaga, for "California Gurls." Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" and Taylor Swift's "Fifteen" are also in the running for the award. Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber leads the Best New Artist category alongside Nicki Minaj, Jason Derulo, Ke$ha and Broken Bells. The 2010 MTV Video Music Awards air September 12 at 9 p.m. on MTV. Fans can go to VMA.MTV.com where they can find a full list of nominees and vote for the winners from Tuesday through September 12.

Kid Cudi Pushes Back New Album
A rep for Universal Motown confirmed that Kid Cudi's second album "Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager" has been pushed back to October 25th. Cudi was originally set to drop the album on September 14th. The rep did not provide a reason for the release-date switch. The album date switch-up is the latest change to the "Day N' Nite" star's upcoming effort. The sophomore set was initially envisioned as a collabo album featuring cuts with Snoop Dogg and Pharrell entitled "Cudder."
