It’s only been two months since his unexpected release from jail, but it appears Tekashi 6ix9ine – already on his third single since the prison break – is trying to make up for lost time.

Following two Hot 100 top 5 hits – ‘GOOBA’ and the Nicki Minaj-assisted chart-topper ‘TROLLZ’ – 6ix9ine is back with a Spanish single, ‘YAYA.’

Talk a Good Game has taken on a double-meaning once or twice in the life of R&B superstar Kelly Rowland, she revealed in a tell-all recent interview her pastor Erwin McManus.

Answering a series of deeply personal and professional questions during the nearly hourlong chat, the GRAMMY winner spoke candidly about the mutual decision she and husband, Tim Witherspoon, came to cut professional ties and focus solely on their marriage.

“No one would believe this and actually this would be my first time talking about it, but I almost lost everything because I was so busy trying to keep up… Whether it was the look, whether it was the wardrobe, whether it was the car, whether it was the place… all of that silliness!”

That’s not all.  Look inside for more:

Tina Knowles-Lawson is speaking up and out in support of daughter Beyonce. 

The trailer launch for Queen Bey’s ‘Black Is King’ visual album ignited excitement amongst the majority ahead of its July 31st arrival on Disney Plus.

Yet, a select few took to social media with thesis-like critiques of the project…before it’s even been released.

Indeed, odd claims of “appropriating” African culture were made — despite hundreds of African creatives being employed at every level of the production. From directors, to producers, to stylists, to on-screen talent, Africa is at the front and center what the singer has expressed is a passion project and – more importantly – a celebration of the Motherland.

Now, her own Mom has weighed in and she’s not holding back.
