It was announced Thursday via twitter, that Drake, Lil Wayne, and Eminem will be teaming up with Travis Barker to perform “Forever” at this year’s Grammys.

Back in November, Travis Barker posted a video on YouTube of him drumming to his own remixed version of Drake’s hit, and it looks like we’ll get to see the live version of that remix during Sunday’s big show.

Although the original version of the song contains a verse by Kanye West, he is not scheduled to perform.

Tune in to the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards this Sunday at 8 PM ET/PT on CBS.

Apple introduced their brand new tablet device on Wednesday, the iPad.

Apple’s head honcho, Steve Jobs, revealed the new computerized tablet during a conference in San Francisco, and hopes the technologically advanced device will take the multimedia world by storm.

The iPad’s features will include the ability to view fullscreen HD movies, listen to music through iTunes, connect to the internet via Wi-Fi, and use third party applications.

Basically, it’s an iPod Touch with a 9.7 inch touch-screen, but it’s still hard to deny that it is mildly impressive.

Wi-Fi enabled models are scheduled to hit stores in 60 days, and can run you anywhere from $499 to $829.

Bill O’Reilly definitely made some new enemies Wednesday after an audio recording was released of the political commentator comparing the disasters in Haiti to Chicago.

During an appearance in Westbury, New York, O’Reilly made comments regarding Obama’s belief in the government’s ability to solve the problems in Haiti stating, “The government’s going to solve the problems, and I’m going, I don’t know, how’s that possible? If you’ve ever been to the South Side of Chicago, I mean, it’s a disaster, all right? It’s like Haiti….”

Chicago native, Lupe Fiasco, heard the comment made by O’Reilly, and said he could see why he made the comparison.

“There’s a certain level of concurrence,” Lupe told MTV. “Not now. There’s no toppled buildings, unless you want to count the projects. But pre-earthquake Haiti … When I went to Africa, when I was in Tanzania, it was weird because there was this extreme poverty and extreme corruption and it looked so much like the West Side of Chicago.”

Lupe went on to say that he in no way fully supports O’Reilly, but he could understand the comparison of America’s poverty-stricken neighborhoods to Third World countries.

Earlier this month, Lupe climbed Mount Kilimanjaro along with celebrities Kenna, Santigold, Jessica Biel, and Emile Hersch to raise awareness about clean drinking water in Africa.

North Carolina duo, Little Brother, are prepping their final album, LeftBack, for a spring release.

Phonte and Big Pooh considered just releasing an EP after making the decision to call the group quits, but then decided to give theirs fans one last full album and DVD to hold on to.

“Three albums, three mixtapes, one video,” Big Pooh told XXL. “It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense in this day and age. We have always lacked in the visual department, and I think it will be refreshing to finally offer people those visuals.”

“I wanted to walk away from Little Brother knowing that I gave our fans all that I had to give, and said everything I wanted to say. With Leftback, I’ve done that,” Phonte said.

The duo also have plans to go on one last tour during the time of the albums release.

Leftback is due out April 20.

Little Brother released two critically acclaimed albums during the course of their career — 2003’s The Listening and 2005’s The Minstrel Show.
