Days away from the September 4 release of his fifth studio album, ‘Detroit 2,’ rapper Big Sean is hot on the promo trail in its support.

Most recently taking to ‘New York’ magazine, the GRAMMY-nominated rapper discussed a number of hot topics around his career including his support of Kanye West‘s political aspirations, rumored beef with Kendrick Lamar (as we reported here), and reflected on his relationship with late actress Naya Rivera.

Though he released an emotional statement shortly after the 33-year-old’s death (as we reported here), some of her fans labeled his comments attention-seeking as she was famously attached to his diss track ‘IDFWU’ (a song released after their highly publicized breakup).

Now, over five years after the controversial tune’s premiere, Sean is clearing the air.

English EDM stars Disclosure unveiled their third studio album, ‘Energy,’ on August 28 – much to fan delight. Just days ahead of its arrival (as we reported here), fans were gifted album cut ‘Birthday’ featuring Syd of The Internet and Kehlani.

As none of the LP’s singles outside of the Khalid-assisted ‘Know Your Worth’ have entered the Hot 100 to date, the brotherly duo are giving ‘Birthday’ just the push needed to change that narrative.

Its latest bid for Billboard glory comes via a Mr. Rogers-inspired music video.  Directed by Kid. Studio, look inside to see the action:

Just days after thrilling Stateside fans with the inaugural televised performance of the cut – which serves as the first single from her forthcoming seventh studio album ‘She is Miley Cyrus’ – she’s taken to the UK to rock British fans with another stirring rendition of it.

Stripping down the synth-buoyed bop to only guitar and piano, look inside to see and hear Miley’s voice shine front and center at BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge.

Detractors who thought Saweetie‘s 2x Platinum breakthrough hit, ‘My Type,’ would be the last time the rising rapstress saw her name typed in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 40 were sadly mistaken.

The updated chart reveals ‘Tap In,’ the lead single from her forthcoming debut album ‘Pretty B*tch Music,’ has tapped into the #31 spot on the tally – cracking the top 40 for the first time since its June 17-premiere.

At one point struggling to find footing on the hit list, ‘Tap’ – which features a prominent sample of Too $hort hit ‘Blow the Whistle’ – blew into the top 40 on the wings of a viral Tik Tok dance challenge.  Later calling on the likes of DaBaby, Jack Harlow, and Post Malone to assist with the tune’s remix (which can by heard by clicking here), ‘Tap’ stands to rise to even higher Hot 100 heights next week.

Until we find out or sure, look below to see who joins Saweetie in the top 40 of this week’s TGJ Chart Check.
