Well aware that the May 6th release of his new LP ‘X’ will seen him go into chart battle with Mariah Carey‘s latest album, Chris Brown gives fans another good reason to support his project today.

If recent reports are anything to go by, this year saw Interscope Records sever ties with ‘Pretty Girl Rock’ sensation Keri Hilson.

However, before the label speaks out to either confirm or deny the above, they have joined their leading man Eminem in welcoming good news this month, shedding fresh light on his undying hold over the charts.

Why his label-mates may owe him a thank you?

Having rocked the net this weekend with the video for new single ‘G.U.Y’, Pop force Lady GaGa has unveiled the cut’s accompanying artwork.

Following the vein of previous ‘ARTPOP’ singles (pours out a little liquor for ‘Do What U Want’ With Ma Bodeh), the cover boasts a polaroid effect – which this time houses a snap from the song’s epic visual.

We like. Do you?

Your thoughts?

If you thought that little Drake/“Rolling Stone” debacle was over, think again.

Indeed, a month after the Torontoian hitmaker shared with the magazine his thoughts on Jay Z‘s “corny” bars, the “Excuse Me Miss” rapper drops a response via his verse on Jay Electronica‘s new tune ‘We Made It’.

See Drake’s full quote here, then hear Jay’s rebuttal below:

“It’s like Hov can’t drop bars these days without at least four art references.  I would love to collect [art] at some point, but I think the whole Rap/art world thing is getting kind of corny.”  – Drake, via Rolling Stone

Music lovers are still gagging for Gaga and her latest cinematic music video ‘G.U.Y.’

The latest single lifted from her not-so-well received album ‘ARTPOP’, the song and its accompanying visual – not even 24 hours since its premiere – are being received as a long-awaited return to ‘The Fame’ form for the Grammy-winner (i.e. catchy pop, eye-popping high fashion, killer dance moves, and the absence of a socially conscious message).

With news of its premiere in sight, the diva’s faithful fan group began a bid to push the tune to the top of VEVO’s digital history books by encouraging viewers to repeatedly watch the video to ensure it lands as the digital music channel’s “most watched video in a 24 hour period”.

Do you think their petition will succeed?
