Girls’ Generation has been working hard these past few weeks promoting “Mr. Taxi,” the group’s follow-up single to chart-topping worldwide release, “The Boys.” SM Entertainment finally revealed the Korean MV for “Mr. Taxi,” which gives …

Visualizations of music seemed to come about to fit technology. In the '60s we had light shows to Pink Floyd at the local science museum. When iTunes came out in my high-school years, there was borne the iTunes "visualization," which far topped the Windows Media Player's lame fizzing. The

America's a weird mix, and it was all on display on Saturday at the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art's annual alternative Comic-Con. Held at New York's Lexington Avenue Armory -- an enormous turn-of-the century brick warehouse, buffeted by Hummers in military-only parking zones and stuffed with

Yesterday, the crazy awesome Beijing bands Carsick Cars, P.K. 14, and Xiao He set off on their first-ever tour of the US. I was lucky enough to see these bands live last year in Beijing's teensiest, grittiest clubs. So to be in a museum-like gallery space in Brooklyn, watching them charm a totally

No one knows who Banksy is. When the street artist curates museum shows, the curators don't know him. When he went to the Hollywood premiere of his own film, no one knew who he was. That's his thing. However, at Coachella this weekend... the world was turned upside down. Bands floundered overseas,

A newer, waxier Hrithik Roshan is joining the likes of SRK, Salman, Amitabh, and Aishwarya in Madame Tussauds world-renowned wax museum in London later

Street art kids are munching on their fingernails right now. Because the follow-up to Style Wars appears to have finally come to be. Or maybe it'll be the worst thing ever. But you know every kid who knows what an "up" is will be there. It's Exit Through the Gift Shop -- a doc about...

The Tuttuki Bako Poking Box is a very simple, completely useless and yet brilliant device that I need right now. Basically, you can stick your finger inside of it and poke all kinds of things that appear on the screen. Think about that for a second. Your finger is a real three-dimensional object.

Born in Horseshoe Bay, Canada, Adrienne Pierce has a light, spritely voice that seems to hop over the plucks of guitar that build into her folk-pop songs, which despite their often despondent lyrics, always seem bright and bubbly. She's the girlish Canadian Sondre Lerche, a pop-darling with indie

OK - please don't call me predictable, but I'm throwing a little Lo's List ♥'s Murakami Party - just because: he's fresh and summery and it's hot outside! So: first up, the collab' with "it bag" maître, Louis Vuitton... I've never been too into the bags, but love the many other innovations that...

My boyfriend spends 8% of his day making fun of my Shakira obsession. I have played him "She Wolf" and have tried to explain the weird awesomeness of its lyrics ("I'm starting to feel like a coffee machine in an office").

There was some kind of PR thing about breasts in this study and*... WHO CARES!? THIS IS MTV!!! What's important is some kind of event prompted a bunch of women to wear lingerie in public. And even if they were there for some kind of feminist cause, you can ignore it and stare at...

OMG! You've remembered your passport, your phone charger, your manager has secured the gig, there's no war on in your country and... holy moly!... an Icelandic volcano erupts, shutting down your country's airport with a blanket of un-fly-able ash. That's what's happening to MTV IGGY fave Frightened

It must be exhausting to be MIA. What with all these other musicians to take down, and paranoid conspiracies to promote, and "terrorist" credibility maintain despite marrying the heir to the Seagram's fortune and living in gated luxury. But with less than five weeks to go before the release of her

  True to their moniker, hip-hop duo Poetic Pilgrimage pays homage to the spoken soul of poetry and its journey through the power and tribulations of long-awaited social liberation. The women behind the group are fueled by much more than creative rhymes and story telling. Their newest

Are animated car chase videos the new trend? After watching the new Gorillaz video for "Stylo," it was hard to press play without a bored sigh. "This again?!" Thankfully, the new MV from Balkan Beatbox feels totally different.

Holy smokes, there are designers and there are DESIGNERS, those visionaries who see the future in a more brilliant palette than we could ever imagine. Such is the case with the 23-year-old French designer Charlie Mindu, whose avant-garde wigs have graced the heads of Peaches and Lady Gaga (three

Any MTV Iggy readers living in Nairobi? If so, do yourself a favor and check this exhibit out! Coming soon to Cairo, Johannesburg, Kinshasa and Lagos. So keep a look out. Afropolis - City, Media, Art is an exhibition project, that will exhibit in five big African cities (Cairo, Nairobi,

With our Best New Band winners coming to New York City for our Monday concert, it's like some of our coolest friends are visiting -- and we want to show off our town! So we've picked a few places for each artist, and if they take our advice, we guarantee a good time for all. Books...

It's impossible to write about chillwave -- as I attempted yesterday -- without referencing Neon Indian, the glo-fi, synth pop project of Mexico-born, Texas-raised 21-year-old Alan Palomo. A gauzy, shimmery mash of cheesy pop, video-game blips, and oozy elevator music, the drowned songs seem to

Ben Stiller bested the terminators as "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian" topped the weekend box office. "Terminator Salvation" came in at #2.

The mayor of Gary, Indiana, announced that a $300 million privately funded Michael Jackson museum will be built in the singer's hometown beginning in early 2011.

Tim Burton called his retrospective museum exhibit "surreal." "It's a bit of an out-of-body experience," the director said of seeing his work at New York's Museum of Modern Art.
