Giveon may have recently ascended to the top of the Hot 100 for the first time in his career thanks to Justin Bieber‘s ‘Justice’ hit ‘Peaches,’ but the newcomer was already making impressive waves by his lonesome.
Easily the year’s breakout R&B star thanks to his breakthrough single ‘Heartbreak Anniversary,’ the 26-year-old is only seeing buzz around his efforts amplify thanks to high profile promotional appearances on the likes of ‘Ellen‘ and more.
Just weeks after the tune’s parent project, ‘When It’s All Said and Done…Take Time,’ saw Giveon’s name printed in the Billboard 200’s top 10 for the first time, ‘Anniversary’ broke new ground on singles charts as it’s listed at #22 on the week’s refreshed Hot 100 and a new peak of #4 on the Hot R&B Songs chart.
All of these events conspired to garner G the second Platinum plaque of his career. More inside:
Having already conquered the top positions of North American charts with his sixth chart-topping studio album, ‘Justice’ (click here to stream), Pop pinup Justin Bieber is looking to repeat the feat abroad.
The global push for the top-selling LP landed in Paris recently and saw Bieber deliver a 15-minute live set for his Parisian fans – affectionately called #Beliebers.
Performing five songs from ‘Justice’ (four for the first time), the virtual concert took to the City of Light to light up the Hôtel De Crillon alongside his live band.
Speaking on the international affair (helmed by show director Nick Demoura), Bieber said:
“For me, Paris has been one of my favorite places. We haven’t had the chance to travel. My wife was going over to Paris for some sort of gig. I think she was doing a magazine. I always wanted to throw something together that was overlooking the Eiffel Tower. We did one performance, which was on the Eiffel Tower, which was sick, but I had a vision of this performance overlooking the Eiffel Tower.”

Five months after landing her first Billboard 200 top 10 hit with her debut album, ‘Missunderstood,’ R&B songstress Queen Naija is ready to rule over charts again – this time with the LP’s extended edition.
Put on fan radar by the critically-acclaimed ‘Set Him Up’ featuring Ari Lennox (click here to stream), the revamped project (released April 16) shines with a list of features that includes the likes of Lil Durk, Lucky Daye, Kiana Lede, Mulatto, Russ, Jacquees, Toosii, and more.

Saweetie may be currently seated at the highest rung she’s ever reached on the Hot 100 with her Doja Cat-assisted single, ‘Best Friend’ (#14 peak to date), but that doesn’t mean she’s resting on her laurels.
Ahead of the unveiling of her long-awaited debut studio album, ‘Pretty B*tch Music,’ the 27-year-old is tiding fans over with the April 16-released ‘Pretty Summer Playlist: Season 1’ – a compilation EP highlighting up-and-coming musical talents (click here to stream).
To bring even more eyes and ears to the project, the rapstress selected its housed tune, ‘Risky’ (featuring Drakeo the Ruler), as its first single to get the video treatment.

From Ella Mai‘s ‘Trip’ to Michael Jackson‘s ‘Dirty Diana,’ self-proclaimed King of R&B Jacquees has received royal backlash many times over his short career for remixing some of today and yesterday’s most beloved R&B hits.
Despite the critical polarity (and a petition signed by over 53,000 people for him to stop doing so), the 27-year-old shows no sign of slowing as evidenced by his recently unveiled ‘Quemix 4’ mixtape.
Released two years after ‘Quemix 3,’ the latest installment in the ‘QueMix’ series comes as a 13-track affair that sees the Atlanta native tackle some ’90s and early 2000s R&B favorites including Brandy‘s ‘I Wanna Be Down,’ Donnell Jones‘ ‘Where I Wanna Be,’ Usher‘s ‘Can U Handle It?,’ and more.
