As reported here, Nicki Minaj is zooming to her next top 20 hit thanks to the Yo Gotti bop, ‘Rake It Up.’

Already hopping to #22 in just 6 weeks, the song’s promising ascent to the Hot 100’s upper fifth is all the more impressive given the absence of its official music video.  At the beginning of the month, the Harajuku Barbie assured her (growingly) impatient supporters the clip was “less than a week away.”  Fast forward two weeks later, no video.

To tide fans over, Minaj took to Twitter recently to unveil a behind the scenes look at the highly anticipated video.  There, viewers can catch a glimpse of what to expect from the visual in addition to its touted guest appearance by Blac Chyna.

Queen of Pop Madonna wasn’t quite prepared for the royal disappointment the setlist for her long-awaited ‘Rebel Heart’ tour live CD and DVD was going to be for diehard fans.

The pop icon, who celebrates her 59th birthday today (August 16th), thought she’d gift her fans with the official pre-order link and track list of the project, set to hit shelves a month from today (September 16th).  Her supporters, already upset the live CD and DVD were coming over a year-and-a-half (approximately 18 months) after the worldwide trek wrapped in Australia, became even more so when peeks at the track list saw fan favorite cuts ‘Love Don’t Live Here Anymore,’ ‘Take A Bow,’ ‘Who’s That Girl,’ and even ‘Rebel Heart’ cut ‘Ghost Town’ absent.

After one read of the frustrations expressed on Twitter and Facebook, all we could say was…ouch!

CBS has its eye on Justin Bieber creator Scooter Braun as it seeks to extend its reach in TV’s realm.

The network is developing a singing competition series with help from Braun as they seek to compete with ABC and NBC which house ‘American Idol’ and ‘The Voice’ respectively and extend its relationship with him following the birth of their scripted baby ‘Scorpion.’

Details on the project are still emerging so keep it locked on TGJ for updates for what may be a very exciting music industry moment.

How so? Braun’s success with the Biebs will undoubtedly add a level of credibility to a series seeking to find or forge the next generation of superstars.

Pink made headlines yesterday when it was announced that is the recipient of the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard honor at the 2017 MTV Video Music Awards.

While many hailed the move, a select sect of Christina Aguilera fans are enraged.

“Why” one may wonder?

Well, there had been online murmurs for months that Xtina was in line for the award; even though there was no proof. Those fanning the flames could only point to the fact that the singer followed the VMA Twitter account.

Now, some Aguilera fans oddly feel bamboozled and are taking out their frustrations on Pink – flooding her social media with their proverbial pitchforks.

Ever outspoken, the star has clapped back.

Donald Trump’s decision to defend blood-thirsty White Supremacists and Neo-Nazis hours ago has left the world stunned, shocked and startled.

Unwilling to criticise the President?

Madame C.J. Walker‘s life is to be brought to life once again thanks to an unexpected collaboration between the Oscar winner Octavia Spencer and Lebron James.

Netflix are said to be eager to pick up the show which will see James and Spencer stand as producers and the latter play Walker herself with the full backing of Lebron’s Spring Hill Entertainment.

He shared…

I am really proud of this project and that SpringHill will be partnering with Octavia to tell this important story. Every American should all know the story of Madam C.J. Walker. She was an innovator, entrepreneur, social activist, and total game changer whose story has been left out of the history books. I hope this project lives up to her legacy with a story that will educate and inspire.

However, he hasn’t released an album since 2015’s ‘Royalty.’

That all looks set to change though, because the R&B singer has officially confirmed the arrival date of follow-up ‘Heartbreak On A Full Moon.’

After 8 years+ (approximately 430 consecutive weeks) of back to back placements, that Drake reign has finally let up on the Hot 100.

The rapper/singer/songwriter – whose first entry on the singles chart came in May 2009 thanks to the breakout hit ‘Best I Ever Had’ – had not seen the tally printed one week since then without his name in at least one position…until this week.

Last week, the Canadian emcee had two titles in the lower fifth of the charts (‘Passionfruit’ and ‘Signs’ at #81 and #100 respectively), but both titles vanished from the Hot 100 with this week’s refreshing…

Lady Gaga has long been an advocate for equality.

As such, it’s little surprise that the ‘Born This Way’ singer is speaking up and out following the shocking white supremacist violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.

In the wake of the incident (which left an innocent woman dead), America has been engaged in ample race debate. Particularly after President Donald Trump failed to explicitly stress that carnage was caused by white supremacists and neo-Nazi groups.

Hoping to bring about greater understanding with a view for change, Gaga took to Twitter moments ago to pose a question to the Black community.
