One point on the scoreboard for Kanye. Remember the pesky bitcoin company, Coinye? Well, Kanye West won his lawsuit against the virtual coin company. The site for the Kanye-inspired bitcoin company appeared in January 2014, but shut down immediately after Kanye took legal action. Good for him. [HypeTrak]
Kanye’s not the only artists winning lawsuits lately. Pharrell Williams won in the lawsuit against him for claims of copyright infringement over the production of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines.” The judge ultimately decided that although the two songs have similarities, the compositions of the songs aren’t the same.

Nicki Minaj gets animated. The “Anaconda” femcee lent her voice to Cartoon Network’s animated series Steven Universe. Watch a sneak peek of Nicki’s voice cameo over at Rap-Up.
And the G-Unit reunion continues. Feeling nostalgic, 50 and his G-Unit homies sample the Gap Band’s “Outstanding” for their new cut “Come Up.” Take a listen to the DJ Envy-hosted banger over at MissInfo.
