With headlining the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show in her near sights (February 13), Mary J. Blige is undoubtedly hoping to score on the charts by preceding the big game with the release of her 15th studio album, ‘Good Morning Gorgeous.’

Before watching ‘Morning’ rise to streaming and digital download platforms the morning of February 11, Blige – who’s already given fans a taste of its content via the singles ‘Rent Money’ (featuring Dave East), ‘Good Morning Gorgeous,’ and ‘Amazing’ (featuring DJ Khaled) – has unlocked the first look at the project’s 13-song tracklist.

In addition to big names like East and Khaled, MJB reunites with her ‘Shake Down’ co-star Usher as well as fellow GRAMMY winner Anderson .Paak, Fivio Foreign, and more aboard the effort, which marks her first LP since 2017’s ‘Strength of a Woman.’

As the 10th anniversary of her untimely death approaches, Whitney Houston is still making headlines for the ongoing celebration of her timeless catalog via digital sales and spins on streaming outlets.

Just last week, the late Pop icon made history when she became the first female act in history to be awarded 4 Diamond plaques from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) – one for a single (‘I Will Always Love You’) and three for albums (‘Whitney Houston,’ ‘The Bodyguard,’ and ‘Whitney’).

Now, the latter’s lead single – 1987’s ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)’ – may be well on its way to joining that exclusive list if its continued sales and streaming performance are to judge by.

The Weeknd‘s ‘Dawn FM’ may have marked his first album in nearly 10 years to miss the Billboard 200’s top spot upon its premiere (as we reported here), but the narrow defeat was still accompanied by a number of notable wins on the Hot 100.

Ahead of the LP’s January 7 release, the singer (born Abel Tesfaye) – with 77 career-wide chart entries to his credit – was already listed in the hit list’s history books among male vocalists with the most cumulative Hot 100 appearances.  With ‘Dawn FM,’ however, he forwarded his ranking on that all-time tally as he placed 14 of the project’s 16 tracks on this week’s singles chart (6 in the top 40 alone).

Its ongoing success got the ultimate toast recently, however, when the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) took to press to announce the tune had become her first solo certified hit.

Christina Aguilera‘s long-awaited Spanish EP, ‘La Fuerza’ (which translates to “the force” in English), is proving itself to be quite the force on the global stage.

Living up to its title in more ways than one, the six-song project – released January 21 – comes over 20 years after the singer dropped her first well-received Spanish-language effort, ‘Mi Reflejo.’

As critical acclaim continues to roll in from some of the industry’s top tastemakers, ‘Fuerza’ has forced its way to the top of real-time global sales tallies – besting the sales performance of some of the world’s hottest musical releases.

Over a year after its debut, Jazmine Sullivan‘s comeback EP – ‘Heaux Tales’ – continues to write new chapters in its success narrative.

Her highest-peaking project on the Billboard 200 to date, the enduring wins of ‘Heaux’ can be attributed in no small part to its critically acclaimed single ‘Pick Up Your Feelings’ – which gave the R&B diva her highest-charting hit on the Hot 100 since 2010.
