Ciara kept the ‘Beauty Marks’ promotional party going today with a headlining slot on Good Morning America’s Summer Concert Series.

Backed by a troop of dancers, CiCi rocked Central Park with high-octane showings of several songs from the new LP – including ‘Level Up,’ ‘Set,’ and current single ‘Thinkin Bout You.’

The dynamite performer also blazed the stage with classic ‘Goodies.’

In being her own boss, it’s clear Mrs Wilson is making all the right strides now she has her career in her hands. She’s been hitting up all the scorching platforms of late.

Cardi B continues to fire from all cylinders.

Moments ago, she sounded off with her latest single ‘Press.’

A swagged-out affair, the track finds the rapper in fine form – lyrically serving up the braggadocios like only she can.

It arrives months after she first teased the cut on social media and shortly after Bruno Mars collaboration ‘Please Me’ peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Ahead of the premiere of the song’s video, get all the way acquainted with new Cardi after the jump…

Katy Perry has returned.

Looking to put the polarizing ‘Witness’ era behind her, the songbird has hatched new release ‘Never Really Over’ – her first solo offering in two years.

Produced by Zedd and Dreamlab, the jam sees Perry explore the effect relationships – of all varieties – have on us.

Speaking on ‘Never,’ she explained:

“All of our relationships – from first love, through failed love, to great love – all become a part of you, so that none are ever really over, and once you accept both the dark and the light, you may find that the darkness brought you to the light.”

Ever visual, Perry has wasted no time unwrapping the track’s accompanying video.

A whimsical, colorful, and trademark “Katy” clip awaits after the jump…

Cheryl is back!

Hoping to make a splash all over again, the British belle has unleashed new single ‘Let You.’

Produced by Mike Spencer, the Pop bop makes no apologies for its dance-floor agenda but also puts forth an interesting narrative lyrically.

Speaking on the track and its meaning, the singer said:

“I loved this song from the moment we wrote it in the studio. I knew I had to release it! I’ve made mistakes in relationships. I’ve been with men who were controlling, who made me unhappy, but I allowed it to happen. That’s what this song is about. You have to recognise it, and you have to try and not let it happen again.”

Mark Ronson has called on Camila Cabello for new single ‘Find U Again.’

The melodic slice of Synth-Pop is the latest taste of the hitmaker’s forthcoming album ‘Late Night Feelings’ – which arrives via RCA Records on June 14th. 

While it joins a lengthy list of pre-release bops dropped by Ronson leading up to the LP, it’s the first the masses have heard from Cabello since wrapping her debut album campaign.

With that project gifting her chart-topping smash ‘Havana,’ has her pairing with Ronson birthed another Billboard win? Listen below and let us know…

As groups go, the City Girls story has been the definition of unorthodox.

Having bulldozed the barriers that often face duos, the group then went a member down when JT was incarcerated.

And that hasn’t stopped their ascend. Case in point ‘Act Up.’

Much like preceding single ‘Twerk,’ the track has been a club and viral sensation; rising organically via both means.

Now as it reaches its apex, its accompanying video has been unleashed.

A swagged-out affair, the visual sees Yung Miami handle hers – with clips of the masses doing the same are also interspliced.

Check out the vid, which features an appearance from Lil Yatchy – after the jump…

It seems relative newcomer Lizzo‘s been making all the right moves in support of her third studio album/major label debut, ‘Cuz I Love You’ (released in April).

In addition to pounding the promo trail in support of the effort – a jaunt that’s seen her tour the U.S. and tackle major platforms in television, radio, and print – the 31-year-old’s also seeing boosts thanks to having her songs featured in popular shows and commercials.  Case in point:  ‘Truth Hurts.’

The Ricky Reed-produced cut – originally released in 2017 – became the singer’s first Hot 100 placement of her career this year thanks to support of its parent album and later because of its appearance on the Netflix series, ‘Someone Great.’  The result?  ‘Truth’ hit #38 this week and has not only given the ‘Juice’ songstress her first taste of top 40 success but also comes as a career high placement for her (to date).

Look inside to see who joins her on this week’s ‘TGJ Chart Check’ Hot 100 edition:

History books continue to reward Chris Brown for his hard work.

The singer-songwriter – who is just weeks away from the debut of his ninth solo studio album, ‘Indigo’ – has seen his name colored across Billboard Hot 100 a whopping 93 times over the last 15 years.  The 93rd appearance came this week courtesy of his guest starring role on the new DJ Khaled song, ‘Jealous,’ which also features Lil Wayne and Big Sean (found on Khaled’s ‘Father of Asahd’ album).

Easily R&B’s most active artist with a plethora of his own tracks landing placements on the tally alongside guest appearances on rappers, Pop singers, and fellow R&B stars’ tracks, Chris recently passed the most famous musical “Brown” to earn the title of “most Hot 100 appearances of any of the genre’s performers.”

Little Mix are wasting no time setting the wheels in motion for new single ‘Bounce Back.’

Aptly titled, the track arrives amidst a rocky era for the ladies – who departed their label just days before their most recent album ‘LM5’ hit stores.

Set to arrive on June 14th, ‘Bounce’ is one of ’em and to drum up buzz, Jesy, Jade, Perrie, and Leigh-Anne have shared its official cover and a series of snippets.
