The director of the film Reincarnated says Snoop Doggs conversion to reggae rastafarian Snoop Lion is the real deal.

Snoop recently had a chance to explain his new worldview himself at a Reincarnated press conference during the TIFF 2012.

He answered some questions, but mostly left everyone guessing in the end. Essentially, there’s still some Dogg in Snoop Lion, what everyone’s trying to figure out it “How much?”

Sarah recapped the event for Huffington Post Music Canada. You can click through to read the whole thing here.

Killer clown rappers Insane Clown Posse recently watched the video for Carly Rae Jepsen‘s “Call Me Maybe” video Mystery Science Theater 3000-style and the results were pretty entertaining.

The pair contemplated how old Jepsen was, whether they’d “hit it” and marveled at the video’s ending.

I wrote a recap of it all for Huffington Post Music Canada. Click here to read it.

20 Pop Songs That Are Far Darker Than You’d Think

Fun.

Fun.

Have you listened to that “Pumped Up Kicks” song? It’s not fun. It’s psychopath music.

We’re talking Columbine level.

Knowing that this song had tricked a lot of folks into thinking it was a happy-go-lucky pop tune Sarah went and found another 19 numbers that are really actually about murder, revenge, deceit and other generally nasty stuff.

That list — 20 Dark Pop Songs — can be found over at Huffington Post Music Canada by clicking here.
