After three years, Beyonce has poured her multi-platinum album ‘Lemonade’ onto all streaming services – most notably Spotify and Apple Music.

Arriving three years ago on this very day, the ‘Formation’ led set was immediately available for purchase (along with its companion visual) but was issued as a TIDAL streaming exclusive.

The move saw Queen Bey’s sixth solo set top the charts globally and sell 2.5 million – much of which was traditional units. However, limiting its streaming ability to Jay-Z‘s growing service in turn limited its streaming potential.

Initially, it looked as though ‘Lemonade’ would reside on TIDAL in perpetuity. Yet, with last year’s Carter side-product ‘Everything Is Love’ receiving a wide-release and live album ‘Homecoming’ debuting on all platforms, it seems to point to a pivot in Bey’s approach.

For its premiere on Spotify et al, the LP now features a bonus track in the form of the ‘Sorry (Demo)’; a fresh, chiller take on the turn-up anthem, it sports different lyrics.

This Friday brings with it the release of Pink‘s brand new album ‘Hurts 2B Human.’

In the run-up to its arrival, the Pop rebel has been treating fans to tastes of her next musical meal and the serving continues today with the premiere of the LP’s title track.

Khalid joins the singer on the jam, which may be our favorite song she’s dropped from the set yet.

Normani and Sam Smith have done it.

As musical dynasties go, few can rival the legendary Motown. 

For six decades, the iconic imprint has produced star after star who’ve delivered hit after seismic hit.

Last night saw its unparalleled legacy honored with CBS special ‘Motown 60: A GRAMMY Celebration.’ 

That Grape Juice was on-hand at the Microsoft Theater, LA taping, which fused Motown originals such as Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson with contemporary acts who rocked the house with  spirited tributes.

Ciara brought her brand of stage-blazing to a Rick James medley, John Legend offered a masterful Marvin Gaye salute, and Ne-Yo gave a nod to Lionel Ritchie. Elsewhere, Fantasia, Meghan Trainor, Tori Kelly, and Chloe x Halle, joined Thelma Houston for a Women Of Motown medley.

Kanye West may not be headlining Coachella as intended this year, but he brought an altogether different experience to the festival today – Sunday Service.

Mounted in the camping area of the annual extravaganza, the Weekend 2 showing was designed to mirror the gospel-themed services West had put on weeks and months leading up to the performance.

During the rousing set, he also delivered the first performance a new song named ‘Water.’

This week served as a full circle affair for Beyonce.

It marks a year since she annihilated the Coachella stage and etched her name in yet another page of history.

To commemorate the occasion, the superstar singer teamed with Netflix to release docu-concert ‘Homecoming’ along with a companion live album – both of which arrived this week to ample praise.

With much to celebrate, Queen Bey did exactly that by throwing a Homecoming Week bash at Coachella.

Presented in partnership with Adidas and Bey’s Ivy Park (whose monumental partnership was recently announced), the event was an all-out affair; one which paid homage to HBCUs.
