‘Kiss Me Once’.

That’s exactly what Kylie Minogue is inviting fans to do on her 12th studio album.

The Pop diva revealed the tongue in cheek title, as well as its accompanying cover moments ago via Metro Online.

Proceeded by lead single ‘Into The Blue’ (which receives its “official” debut on January 27th), the LP marks Minogue’s first under Jay-Z’s management firm Roc Nation.

Given the uber the visual era we’re in, Kylie has scored a home-run with the cover. Here’s hoping the material inside is just as hot.

‘Kiss Me Once’ is slated for a Spring release.

As his pal Usher continues to craft the masterpiece many hope his next album will be, Rico Love continues to soar towards critical acclaim today, doing so with his very own take on Rick Ross‘ ‘Devil is a Lie.’

A far cry from the Pop radio-ready hits he penned for the likes of Beyonce and Kelly Rowland, his remix of the jam stands as nothing short of fire…even though its Hip Hop cliche-soaked do very little to showcase the genius that earned a 2009 Grammy nomination for the smash hit, ‘Sweet Dreams.’

Contrary to its title, Pitbull & Ke$ha‘s ‘Timber’ has yet to see a significant fall since its chart debut weeks ago.  In fact, the week brings with it news that the pop/rap duo have landed their third week atop the Billboard Hot 100.

Despite significant gains from the likes of Katy Perry, OneRepublic, and Lorde‘s newest single, Pit and Ke$h continue to cash in on their infectious duet.

But, as their grip on supporting charts (i.e. Steaming Songs and Digital Songs) loosens, will it affect their stance at the top? We will see.  Until then, check out this week’s edition of TGJ Chart Check for singles…

Jennifer Lopez is playing no games.

The dynamite diva has unwrapped a blazing new banger titled ‘Girls’.

Premiered via DJ Mustard, who is also co-billed on the track, the cut sees the American Idol judge continue her re-embrace of Urban.

Indeed, gone – so it seems – is the EDM that has dominated much of her recent music and in its place a return of sorts to the sound that birthed the “J.Lo” movement.

Television legend Bill Cosby sent the family sitcom model into the stratosphere in the 80s with his famed ‘The Cosby Show’.  After a successful run aboard its NBC-platform, the family sitcom genre has struggled to reclaim its ratings’ glory days.

NBC is hoping, via a recently inked deal with Cosby, that a resurgence is on the horizon.

Deadline Reports:

“[NBC] has made a deal for a half-hour family comedy to star Cosby. As he did in the ’80s, Cosby has partnered with producer Tom Werner, whose company with Marcy Carsey produced Cosby Show.  The new comedy will be built around Cosby, who will play the patriarch of a multi-generational family and, like the comedian’s previous family sitcoms – Cosby Show and Cosby on CBS — will channel his take on marriage and parenting.”

In addition to the Cosby reboot, word has it there are talks to revive ‘Fat Albert & The Cosby Kids’.
