The Nuge ships venison jerky to the troops, Diddy thanks God for surgery, Vanilla Ice is in an Adam Sandler film, The Rapture’s new clip and heaps more.

Diddy

Diddy

Here’s a look at what’s going on with musicians on Twitter today.

  • You can “download” LL Cool J’s new song with Ne-Yo “here”. “Here” is iTunes. $1.69.
  • UK singer Ellie Goulding is quoting Gotye’s ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ in a tweet. Niiiice.
  • We Are Scientists are watching Katy Perry (we assume) and have their priorities straight. #boobs.
  • The Rapture have posted their new video for ‘Sail Away’ by Australia’s very own Kris Moyes.
  • Rap mogul Diddy had shoulder surgery and doesn’t thank his surgeons. But he does remind us that God is the greatest. So, yeah.
  • Travie McCoy of Gym Class Heroes is just reminding his haters that they don’t have to listen to their new album.
  • Vanilla Ice is in an Adam Sandler movie. Wow. It’s called I Hate You Dad. Out very soon.
  • Indie-bopper Darwin Deez is handing out eBay tips that we presume everyone already knows.
  • Soundgarden’s Chris Cornell is sharing three tunes from his Songbook album on Facebook, but don’t tell everyone.
  • Mr Wango Tango, Ted Nugent, is killing and processing deer to make into jerky for the U.S. Armed Forces. Of course he is.
