Soulja Boy Working With Converse

Rapper Soulja Boy has teamed up with Converse Inc., Matt & Kim and Andrew W.K. for the track "I'm a Goner" for Converse's Three Artists series. The track is a collaborative effort between the pop-rapper, indie duo and heavy metal star. There will be a music video premiering on August 21st at 1:30 p.m. EST on MTV 2.

"When Kim and I sat down to write 'I'm A Goner' we knew we wanted to make a song people can party to," said Matt & Kim's Matt Johnson in a press release. "Soulja Boy and Andrew W.K.'s lyrics and energy bring a whole new element to the song that we couldn't be more excited about."

Kid CuDi participated in the series in 2010. The Cleveland rapper appeared on the track "All Summer," with Vampire Weekend's Rostam and Best Coast's Bethany Cosentino.

Kanye Too Pricey?

Former NBC executive Jeff Zucker threw a lavish party at the Four Seasons for his son’s bar mitzvah,and wanted superstar Kanye West for the event. But Zucker couldn't quite stomach Yeezy's $1 million performance fee.

So what do the super-rich do when they can't afford one rap star? They find another.

Zucker wound up going with Young Money star Drake, who came in and performed for the guests--who were given fine wines, lamb, steak and complimentary customized Converse sneakers.

Newswoman Katie Couric was reportedly among those in attendance.
