Iggy Azalea asserts on her hot new single that the only person she needs on her ‘TEAM’ is herself.

However, in putting the braggadocios-ness to the side, the rapper is opening up about the team that helped steer her away from the suicidal thoughts that threatened to end her life.

It’s well documented how “in” it was to drag “Iggy Azalea” deep down to the trenches in the wake of her social media showdown’s with fellow artists and the racial tensions that surrounded her ethnicity.

And while the Australian has proven herself quick to clap back (or at least try), she has remained relatively mum about the private turmoil she endured behind the scenes.

That silence was shattered today in an interview with Power 106 in Los Angeles. Watch as Ms. I-GG-Y tells her truth below..

Keri Hilson is not happy.

A mysterious press release – issued by an entity allegedly posing as the singer’s label – touted the release of new music this week. Namely single ‘Again’ and the star’s long-awaited third album ‘L.I.A.R.’

As reported, Rihanna features on the April 2016 cover of Vogue Magazine.

Beyond looking stunning, the digital diva’s comments within the inner-pages of the feature are equally as compelling. Especially when it comes to rival Beyonce.

For almost a decade, the singer’s respective fans have lit up the internet with their wars over who is better.

The ladies have rarely quelled the flames, rarely mentioning the other and, when crossing paths, posing for awkward pictures like the one above.

Breaking the routine silence, Rih addresses the drama in the interview.

Check out excerpts below…

*Pose for the camera, now flick!*

Rihanna may not wow vocally, but there’s no denying her ability to deliver a-front of the camera.

The audio-model graces the cover of Vogue Magazine‘s April 2016 issue and glows gorgeously.

Lensed by Mert & Marcus, the stunning feature is the latest in a long-line of promotional spots designed to right the wrongs of her ‘ANTI’ album campaign.

After seven weeks in the music marketplace, the LP has sold in the ballpark of 279,000 copies in the US – if, of course, discounted the 1 million free units paid for by Samsung and distributed by TIDAL.

How many more covers will it take to sell Gold (500k)? Stay tuned!

For the time being, listen to one of ‘ANTI’s only solid songs ‘Kiss It Better’ below

Armed with the success of ‘Pillow Talk,’ Zayn Malik is marching on to March 25th – the day his debut solo album ‘Mind of Mine’ lands in stores.

The 23-year-old, who departed One Direction a year before the group’s break-up, has emerged as force in his own right.

Indeed, with his moody, melodic brand of Pop-Urban, Malik is endearing himself to a whole new audience – and it’s paying off handsomely.

That trajectory continues today with the release of promotional track ‘BeFoUr’ (his spelling, not ours).

Take a listen below…
