Camila Cabello is leaving no stone unturned in the push for new album ‘Romance.’

Dua Lipa is pouring out more newness and this time it’s ‘Future Nostalgia’ – the title track of her hotly anticipated new album.

Due next year, the Londoner’s sophomore set was launched with lead single ‘Don’t Stop Now’ and follows success at the 2019 GRAMMYs – where she walked home with two honors, including Best New Artist.

For this funkified jam, she teamed with hitmaker Jeff Bhasker who produced the song alongside Coffee. Lipa said of the cut:

“Future Nostalgia is my album title track and is a little something to tide you over ’till the New Year. I wrote this one with Jeff Bhasker and Coffee one afternoon in LA. It’s all playful and fun and not taking ourselves too seriously but we loved it so much we wanted to share it with you.”

On the eve of her 30th birthday, Taylor Swift couldn’t say goodbye to her 20’s without taking one more jab at former business partner Scooter Braun.

Embroiled in a highly publicized spat with the entertainment mogul since losing the rights to her master recordings to him (click here to read more), the Grammy winner – who was being recognized with ‘Woman of the Decade’ honors at Thursday’s Billboard Women in Music soiree (December 12) – opted not to mince words when she took to the event’s stage to accept the award.

After delivering an impassioned plea to women to fight for equality in their respective professions, the ‘Shake It Off’ hitmaker homed in on her battle with Braun:

“Let me just say that the definition of the toxic male privilege in our industry is people saying, ‘Well, he’s always been nice to me’ when I’m raising valid concerns about artists and their rights to own their music. Of course he’s nice to you. If you’re in this room you have something he needs. The fact is that private equity enabled this man to think, according to his own social media post, that he could ‘buy me.’ I’m obviously not going willingly.”

That’s not all she said.  Look inside for more:

Nicki Minaj made history last night (December 12) when she became the first female rapper (second woman of color after Janelle Monae) to be recognized twice over her career at Billboard’s annual Women in Music event.

On hand to receive the ‘Game Changer’ award for her contributions to music and becoming the woman with the most placements on the Billboard Hot 100 ever (as we reported here), Minaj took to Los Angeles’ Hollywood Palladium stage to receive the honor after a moving intro from rising Pop songstress Normani.

During her heartfelt acceptance speech, Nicki not only reflected on her journey to the top of the Rap game but also paid tribute to fallen friend, former tour mate Juice Wrld (who passed away this week due to a reported drug overdose as we reported here).

As he puts the finishing touches on his long-awaited new album (reportedly a sequel to his 2004 blockbuster album, “Confessions”), Usher has been keeping fans sated with sporadic drops and guest appearances on the tracks of other artists.

“Girl, give me that good lovin’, no questions / Reach out and you touch me / Bad habits, don’t judge me / Just don’t waste my time,” sings Usher.

The R. Kelly saga continues.

As reported, Lifetime are revisiting the troubling narrative of the R&B star in ‘Surviving R. Kelly Part II: The Reckoning.’

Premiering on January 2nd, the three-part docu-series will feature harrowing accounts from new accusers – who too allege that the embattled singer sexually abused them too. Also appearing are supporters, psychiatrists, and cultural commentators.

Following the broadcast of the original at the top of this year (which drew 26 million viewers), Kelly was arrested. And, after a number of separate stints in jail (most due to an inability to pay bail), he remains behind bars now as he awaits trial on several charges of abuse.

Watch the first look trailer below…
