Ariana Grande is hard at work on new music, but before hatching it the songbird is stepping in front of the lens for Rebook Classic‘s Spring/Summer 2018 campaign.

As the new face of the sportswear brand, the petite powerhouse spearheads their new ‘Always Classic’ initiative – which spotlights style innovators disrupters.

Also featured is Teyana Taylor, whose career is on quite the upswing – thanks to a variety of TV and film projects, as well as her daily slays on social media.

With high anticipation surrounding both ladies next move, they look poised for a hyper hot 2018.

Remy Ma is strutting the promo trail for new single ‘Melanin Magic (ft. Chris Brown).’ And said trail brought her to Hot 97‘s Ebro In The Morning.

Jessie J is currently in China and making her presence felt on popular show ‘Singer 2018.’

The competition pits celebrities against one another in a series of week to week sing-offs.

Tapped as the big “international” acquisition, the 29-year-old has been topping the table on each episode – the latest being no different.

And for good reason.

J blew the roof off the studio with a spirited rendition of Whitney Houston‘s ‘I Have Nothing’ – one that wouldn’t have been amiss during last year’s AMAs. But we digress.

Drake sprung a surprise on fans tonight with the premiere of two new songs ‘God’s Plan’ and ‘Diplomatic Immunity.’

Together both tracks make up what Drizzy has christened the ‘Scary Hours’ EP.

Camila Cabello‘s ‘Havana,’ Rihanna‘s ‘Needed Me,’ Nicki Minaj‘s ‘No Frauds,’ and Katy Perry‘s ‘Swish Swish,’ are just a few of the credits lining the resume of songwriter Starrah…and one of the reasons she’s being branded by some as “the biggest songwriter in the game right now.”

With such an impressive list of hits to her name, it’s no secret she’s being sought out by many – including Queen of Pop Madonna (who’s reportedly hard at work on her 14th studio album).  Making the reveal earlier this week, some fans of the legendary songstress were thrilled to learn she’s not only working with Starrah, but also reconnecting with ‘Ghosttown’ producer Billboard.  Other fans, well…not so much.

Fielding criticism for “chasing hits” or “making hip hop records,” some of the diva’s followers made no secret of their displeasure of the 59-year-old singer presumably making music that would appeal to younger music buyers.

Never one to mince words, M had enough and took to Instagram to clap back:

Justin Timberlake may not be rustling up the charts with his new music, but he’s certainly rustling feathers.

While promoting new album ‘Man Of The Woods’ on Beats 1 radio, he made a comment about Las Vegas residencies that probably won’t resonate well with fans of former flame Britney Spears.

Mariah Carey is ready to work.

Under her old management regime, the songbird surprised many last year when revealing she’d be focussing on singles instead of albums – despite the latter being something she prided herself on. Especially as a songwriter.

Now, having cleaned house and joined Roc Nation, Mimi is singing another tune.

Reliable word has it that she’s been mapping out the follow-up to 2014’s ‘Me I Am Mariah. The Elusive Chanteuse’ and she’s confirmed as much moments ago.

As rap feuds go, few were as intense or as documented as 50 Cent and Ja Rule‘s tussle in the early 00’s.

Ja and Murder Inc had the industry in their palm after a multi-year run of back-to-back smashes. Then 50 emerged with G-Unit, jabs were traded both on wax and in interviews, and the tide quite quickly turned. Legal issues swallowed Ja and co and the rest is history.

Or is it?

Rita Ora has a hustle like no other, so it’s little wonder that she’s releasing yet more new music.

As reported, the multi-media maven has teamed up with Absolut Vodka for an exciting Grammy activation featuring a new song ‘Proud.’

In a unique partnership, Ora created the track using the stories submitted via The Open Mic Project. The core of the campaign is to facilitate an environment in which all people feel valued and respected.

Speaking on the venture, Ora says:

“As a refugee, I know firsthand how isolating it can feel to be misrepresented in the face of adversity. I’m excited to join Absolut with The Open Mic Project because we’re using music as a way to bring people together. From sharing my own story to spotlighting others, we’re bringing the issue of acceptance to a global stage and changing today’s current chat to be more inclusive.”

Ahead of a major TV, digital, social  push in partnership with the Grammy’s, listen to ‘Proud’ below…

After fans pressed the snooze button on ‘Wake Me Up,’ the Lil Kim-assisted introductory single from Remy Ma‘s long-awaited new album ‘Seven Winters & Six Summers,’ the rapstress is looking to cast her spell on the Billboard Hot 100 with a new song – ‘Melanin Magic.’

Featuring Chris Brown, the horn heavy cut samples Mint Condition‘s iconic 90’s hit ‘Breakin My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)’ and – as ever – features Ma’s envied slick, yet hard-hitting delivery.

Is this just the hit she’s been waiting on?  Listen inside and let us know:
