By: Tanay Hudson (@NYStateOfMind2)Category: NewsApril 20, 2015

Big Sean and Ariana Grande have called it quits after eight months of dating.

Sources confirmed with US Weekly that the couple has parted ways a few weeks ago.

“They both deeply care for each other and remain close friends,” their reps said. “We kindly ask that the media respect their wish for privacy regarding this personal matter at this time.”

Another source said that the couple decided to break up because “their conflicting touring schedules would keep them apart over the next year.”

The two had announced that they were dating in October 2014.

This breakup does not seem to be as nasty as Sean’s previous one with actress Naya Rivera, where there were accusations of a watch being stolen among other things.

By: Scooby Wilson (@mcscoobins)Category: MusicApril 20, 2015

Onra’s upcoming “Fundamentals” album will be released on May 15th via All City Records. The fifth album from the Parisian producer, “Fundamentals” was born from the need to return back to a feeling as a teenager when he could repeat one track from days on end. The 90s inspired Hip Hop and R&B that shaped Onra’s younger years is the foundation for “Fundamentals” although the album is not ‘throwback’ by any means and still maintains a very modern sound.

Today, check out the second single “So Long” featuring Chuck Inglish.

It seems like Big Sean and Ariana Grande are no longer an item. The popular couple have split after only eight months of dating. Wow! That was short-lived.

According to US Weekly:

Insiders close to the two say they very quietly and amicably ended their relationship a few weeks ago. “They made the decision to part ways because their conflicting touring schedules would keep them apart over the next year,” one source tells Us. “They both deeply care for each other and remain close friends,” their reps tell Us in a joint statement. “We kindly ask that the media respect their wish for privacy regarding this personal matter at this time.”

There has to be more to this story because plenty of celebrity couples have to have long distance relationships due to conflicting schedules. Hmmmmm
