Travis Barker says he gets on better with hip-hop artists than he does with rock musicians and he finds he can do more with the rap genre than he can with Blink-182.
The drummer is tired of being judged by “nazi bastards” who feel he shouldn’t be working with rap stars like Lil Wayne, Drake and Eminem. He tells Complex.com: “It seems like I have more in common, or hit it off better, with rappers than fools in rock music.
“I got people who were mad when I played the Grammys with Wayne, Drake and Eminem. It’s one of the biggest highlights of my life but they’re like, ‘Stop playing this rap sh*t,’” he said. “F**k you, man. Open up your eyes and ears, you nazi bastards. Don’t be so close-minded. Since I was a kid I listened to all types of music and no one judged me for it. If they did I told them to go f**k themselves.”
Courtney Love considered snorting her late husband Kurt Cobain’s ashes in the weeks following the Nirvana star’s suicide, according to the author of a new book. Music journalist Neil Strauss alleges he was with the Hole singer in Los Angeles when she ‘introduced’ him to the cremated ashes of the rock icon.
And, in his just-released collection of rock interviews, the writer claims Love suggested snorting the remains up her nose. Strauss insists the rocker was “serious when she made the suggestion.” According to his new book, Love said, “Too bad you don’t do coke. Otherwise I’d suggest taking a metal straw to it.”

Oscar winner Trent Reznor has confirmed plans to start work on a new album later this year.
Reznor hasn’t released any new music under the moniker since 2008, and he prompted fears there would be no more Nine Inch Nails music in 2009 after announcing he would no longer be playing live.
The band was expected to head back into the studio last year, but no new material surfaced. Now Reznor has assured fans another project is on its way – although he’s having to go back to basics.
He says, “We plan to do a record later this year, but some material isn’t as relevant to me as when I first wrote it. I don’t wake up in the same place as I did when I was 25, and frankly I’m happy that I don’t.”
Reznor has has been spending his time away from Nine Inch Nails focusing on film scores – his work on “The Social Network” won him his first Academy Award last month and he’s also signed up to write the soundtrack to David Fincher’s American adaptation of Swedish thriller “The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.”

Mike Starr, the original bassist for the band Alice In Chains, was found dead at a home in Utah on Tuesday, March 8th. Starr was 44 years-old.
The musician went public with his addiction struggles and joined season 3 of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew and chronicled his painful withdrawal and road to sobriety.
Starr appears to have hit a bump in the road as he was arrested 3 weeks ago in Salt Lake City for possession of a controlled substance as he allegedly had six Xanax and six Opana tablets on him at the time.
While cause of death is still unknown, a spokesman for the Salt Lake City police department said: “There is nothing to indicate that this was foul play by another individual.”
Dr. Drew Pinskey sent out a message on twitter: “Devastating to hear of Mike Starr succumbing to his illness. So very sad. Our prayers are with his family.”
