Doja Cat continues to flex her versatility.

Earlier this month joining fellow femcees City Girls on their new tune, ‘P*ssy Talk’ (as we reported here), now the 24-year-old ‘Say So’ star is showing off her vocal prowess on rising U.K. Pop star Anne-Marie‘s latest joint, ‘To Be Young.’

An emo-anthemic ode to being youth, restlessness, and recklessness, the tune acts as the second single from Anne-Marie’s highly anticipated sophomore album (due later this year).

“Take a punch, get back up,” she sings in the chorus. “Act a fool, don’t give a f*ck. We’re all a mess, but then I guess this is what it feels like to be young.”

Teyana Taylor may be pregnant, but she’s not backing down from jabs.

For, moments ago, the R&B singer found herself at the center of a spar with Mykki Blanco. 

A performer and transgender activist, Blanco featured on Taylor’s jam ‘WTP (Work That P**sy’ – which is lifted from 2018 album ‘K.T.S.E.’

Yet, in a heated social media entry, the 34-year-old blasted the experience and lamented non-payment for their services.

Taking specific aim at Taylor, several accusations were hurled – including allegations of negative bias surrounding their HIV status.

Taylor was having none of it.

The exchange after the jump…

In April (as we reported here), Toni Braxton announced her yet-titled ninth studio album – the follow-up to 2018’s ‘Sex & Cigarettes’ – would be unveiled in August.

Although she’s not confirmed if that is still the case, what is for sure is she’s moving forward with teasing content from the forthcoming project.

After making Urban Adult Contemporary history with the radio spins from set’s first single, the slow jam ‘Do It’ (which was later revamped by Missy Elliott as we reported here), the tune’s producer, Antonio Dixon, is lifting the lid on what her fans – affectionately called #ToniTigers – can expect next.

1984’s ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’ – the first and only Hot 100 #1 hit by Queen of Rock N Roll Tina Turner – is easily classified as her most iconic solo hit.

Yet, while remakes and remixes of musical treasures of its magnitude are often frowned upon, Norwegian producer Kygo – who recently thrilled fans with his updated take on late Pop icon Whitney Houston‘s ‘Higher Love’ – earned Turner’s stamp of approval when he revamped her timeless tune.

Released July 17, the sonic facelift keeps the diva’s vocals front and center but changes the vibe entirely by turning the R&B-tinged number into an island-inspired dance track.

After garnering critical acclaim for their remix to Tinashe‘s ‘Songs For You’ tune ‘Hopscotch’ (click here to hear it), Los Angeles-based duo THEY. reunite with the stage-blazing diva for their song, ‘Play Fight.’

A nod to throwback R&B, the tune houses cheeky lyrics about makeup sex.

“When we play fight get to grinding all up on me, you don’t play nice,” they harmonize on the chorus. “Next thing, grabbing on your waistline and we turn another evening into a late night.”

Certainly not one for the kiddies, the tune comes as the second single from THEY.’s anticipated upcoming project, ‘The Amanda Tape.’

Since embarking on her solo journey post the breakup of Fifth Harmony, singer Ally Brooke has embraced her heritage more and more via guest-starring roles on a number of Spanish tunes, a trend she continues with the July 17-released banger, ‘500 Veces.’

Playing co-star to Dominican rapper Messiah, the duo – who originally collaborated on 2018’s ‘Vámonos’ – reunite for the sexy tune and its equally hot desert-shot music video.

“Tengo que confesarte / Ohhh I like / The way u touchin’ my body / Ohhh I like / Y si tu quiere que te bese / Ohhh all night,” Brooke wails.
