Pelvic Thrust's Spring Fling party

Pelvic Thrust is a group of eight Miami-based music lovers who will do just about anything for a good party. With their turntables and CDJs in tow, and some insane stamina to keep the fun going all night long, these guys have managed to bring their monthly party from a loft apartment on the edge of Miami's Design District to the apex of underground Miami electronic dance music, the Electric Pickle, with some cool pop-up spots in between.

Following a gritty "New York style" loft party at last month's Spring Fling event, Pelvic Thrust are collaborating with a couple of "generous friends" to throw an all-day pool party at what is being described as "a plush, mansion playground, with secret gardens and crystal pools in abundance," all in the heart of Weston. Sounds titillating!

H&M Announces New Location at Pembroke Lakes Mall

Beyonce_HandM.jpg

You know who's coming to Pembroke Lakes Mall? The fabulous Mrs. Carter!

Well, Beyonce's not actually arriving live and in the flesh, but rather her colorful H&M-only clothing line will be available before you know it, right here in Broward County. Yeah, you read right. H&M.

Who cares about Bey when H and freakin' M is coming to Pembroke Pines, baby!

There's nothing more celebrated in our consumerist world than the announcement of a new H&M or Trader Joe's location. We've got no Trader Joe's on the horizon to keep up fed cheaply, but H&M will be opening soon, clothing us in the best broke can afford.

David Crosby is the Forrest Gump of rock n' roll.

I'm not saying Mr. Crosby isn't very bright, nor that he's very fast or adept at ping pong. But just as you can't escape Forrest Gump when going through 20th century American history -- there Forrest is shaking JFK"s hand, now he's stopping the Watergate break-in, is he teaching Elvis how to dance?! -- neither can you escape David Crosby when looking at the annals of rock 'n' roll history.

To anticipate David Crosby's Friday night performance as part of Crosby, Stills and Nash, let's step into the way, way back machine and see all the places David Crosby pops up.

Plush Lounge at Coastars Coffee Bar in Lake Worth Promises Luxurious and Experimental Playlist Exploration

kiwi plush.jpg
The word plush may be employed as a noun (a "rich fabric") or an adjective ("luxurious"). In both instances, the term signifies smooth sensuality and delicious comfort.

Which is exactly what Miami native and Palm Beach County resident, Christina Farrah (known to many of her friends and acquaintances as "Kiwi") was hoping to invoke when she named her new monthly musically-inclined getty at Lake Worthy's Coastars Coffee Bar.

"I called it 'Plush Lounge' because I wanted it to be lounge-y," Farrah confirms. She is quick to add, "It's not really a dance night, but we'll see how it goes." She continues, with an honest chuckle, "Resisting bass tracks might be difficult."

Tiger Tiger's Lee Tiger on His Album New Era and Making Music After the Death of His Brother

tiger-tiger.jpg

Brothers Stephen and Lee Tiger grew up making music on what is now the Miccosukee reservation. When the two were boys, a pile of toys was delivered from Orlando to distribute to the kids in their village. "We found two plastic guitars that were actually tunable," Lee Tiger says. "So we tuned them up and we started learning to play off those things. It worked." A few years later, at age 13, he got his first wooden guitar. He put a pickup in there, and he began playing at skating rinks and sock hops.

Their first gigs were in the Everglades, where their audiences were straight-faced Native Americans who never abandoned the boys as they rocked onstage like the Beatles, but the villagers also never expressed pleasure in the music either. Tiger calls growing up out there a "different world," explaining, "When I grew up, we didn't have bathrooms; we didn't have lights. We just had lanterns. But that was all right. Man adapts to what's around him, and that's what we had."

Denzel Curry Drops an N-Bomb on MTV (VIDEO)

Categories: Heads Up, Video
MTV News' online program RapFix streams live, so when Carol City rapper and guest Denzel Curry dropped an N-bomb, host Sway Calloway seemed like he was going to pee-pee in his pants.

But who can blame Curry for being casual and slipping up? He's still in high school and already appearing on the "Get in the Game" segment of the show. And with Waka Flocka Flame, who offered his thoughts on "Threatz," Curry's first music video, and even a possible collaboration.

Ariana Grande and Mac Miller Reach Number One on iTunes With "The Way"

Categories: Heads Up
ariana-the-way1-585x340.jpg
Boca native Ariana Grande's seriously high notes boosted the young singer to the top of the iTunes charts today. Just released, her second single, "The Way," features college rapper dude Mac Miller and some heart-warming, wholesome lyrics, well, at least for an R&B song.

Grande sings emotionally, like a teenaged Mariah Carey, with Miller coming in on a Big Pun "Still Not a Player" sample. Grande, known as Cat Valentine on Nickelodeon's Victorious, said on Twitter right after hitting numero uno: "Today has been insane really. Pinch me. I've been crying non stop. I really wasn't expecting this. Do y'all have a clue how much I love you?"

Keep clicking for pop goodness.
