Pop starlet Ariana Grande is grinding with new single ‘Focus.’

The track, which interestingly enough features Jamie Foxx on its hook, isn’t racing up the charts as perhaps hoped. But that isn’t a deterrent for the 22-year-old, who has just released a behind the scenes look at its video.

Check out how the star pieced together the colorful clip, the first from her new album ‘Moonlight,’ after the jump…

Ciara‘s latest single is titled ‘Dance Like We’re Making Love’ and it seems as though she’s taking heed to its lyrics.

The R&B chanteuse shared snaps of herself busting a dramatic move with her footballer beau Russell Wilson.

As widely reported, the pair have been dating since earlier this year and have made no secret about how engrained in each other’s lives they are. From appearances at each other’s jobs, to family time spent with Ci’s one year old son Future Zahir, to elaborate birthday bashes, the couple can’t get enough of each other and many can’t get enough of them!

As X Factor “moments” go, few can rival Fleur East’s breakout performance of ‘Uptown Funk.’ Smartly, then, she has cooked up her own take on the sound with the deliciously addictive ’Sax.’

Big, booming, and busy, the Electric cut (which was co-written by East) features funkified production and ample swagger to match.

Touted as a huge break-out hit, set off the explosive track after the jump…

Chris Brown quenched the thirst of fans with ‘Liquor’ and served up fizzy Pop on follow-up ‘Zero.’

Now, the 26-year-old provides another taste of new album ‘Royalty’ with bedroom jam ‘Sex You Back To Sleep.’

Unapologetic in his intent, Breezy delivers what we feel is the LP’s best bop yet.

Factually speaking, Adele has already “won” with the new album ’25’ – this, despite the LP being two weeks from its release.

Breaking pre-order records left and right, the ‘Hello’ led project is already tipped to deliver the biggest sales of the decade.

And still, no promotional stone is being left unturned. The British songstress is embarking on a media flood, one that will see her hit major stages both home and away – the latter of which will include stints on SNL and her own NBC holiday special.

First, though, will be a one-hour UK special – ‘Adele at the BBC’ – which’ll air November 20th…the day ’25’ arrives worldwide.

The chart titan will deliver tracks from the new album, as well as from predecessors ’19’ and ’21.’ Naturally, ‘Hello’ is one of said songs performed and, tonight, the BBC aired a preview on The One Show.

How does the hyper-hit sound live? You be the judge below…
