As Justin Timberlake puts the final touches on his hotly-anticipated, yet-titled sixth solo studio album (as we reported here), his loyal fans are still clinging to his past hits to tide themselves over.

Evidence of this was served recently when the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) took to press to announce the GRAMMY winner’s 2018 critically polarizing album, ‘Man of the Woods,’ recently cleared the threshold for Platinum certification.

After over 10 years of bops courtesy of 2 studio albums, multiple mixtapes, EPs, and critically acclaimed singles, Iggy Azalea bid her music career adieu with her third and final studio effort – the August 13-released ‘End of an Era.’

A 14-track affair supported by housed tunes ‘Sip It,’ ‘I Am the Strip Club,’ ‘Sex on the Beach,’ and ‘Brazil,’ the project may have sent her beloved fans (affectionately called #Azaleans) into a frenzy but – as we reported here – the set was ignored by music lovers at large.

Although it stands as her first LP to miss the Billboard 200 entirely, Azalea’s got her sights set on chart redemption via the ‘Era’ deluxe edition.  Beefed up with an additional three songs, the September 17-released repackage comes with the added benefit of extra promotion via an aggressive Stateside tour alongside fellow rapper Pitbull.

Will it be enough to crack the Billboard rankings and give Iggy a proper musical send off? Tell us after you stream it inside courtesy of Apple Music and Spotify.

Chloe Bailey is heating up the scene with her debut solo single ‘Have Mercy.’

Unleashed as the premiere taste of the 23-year-old’s forthcoming album, the Murda Beatz produced bop benefitted from viral exposure of its snippet – which racked up nearly a million uses on TikTok before the full song even arrived.

Amplifying buzz the more was the song’s blazing video, which saw Bailey dance up a storm. She also delivered an electrifying performance of ‘Mercy’ at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards.

All, it seems, has helped fuel the single’s success on the Billboard Hot 100.
