With a solo career spanning a decade and a run approaching two, Beyonce stands tall as Pop’s most consistent contributor-where a number of her contemporaries have faltered…for one reason or another.

This year, fans anticipate the release of her fifth studio album by way of Sony, ten years after the release of her Grammy winning debut ‘Dangerously In Love‘.

Little is known about this project, but what fans can be sure of is an era set to dwarf her eras of yesteryear on all fronts. Now, as many a critic weighs in on what they hope to hear on the release, we ask…

What is your favorite Beyonce album and why?

If Lana Del Rey‘s ‘Young & Beautiful’ taught us anything, it’s that the world has a lot to look forward to once she announces the release of her second studio album this year.

Far more radio ready than most of the jams on ‘Born To Die‘, ‘Beautiful’ is fast becoming the ‘Teenage Wasteland’ singer’s most celebrated hit, brought to life last week when she performed it at Latvia’s Arena Riga venue.

Gracing the venue two nights before the end of her ‘Paradise’ tour, her delivery of the song may wow some while boring others.

We loved it, so check it out and let us know if you agree below!

J.Cole fans rejoiced yesterday, when first day sales predictions revealed his ‘Born Sinner‘ was to sell no more than 200,000 units less than Kanye West‘s ‘Yeezus‘.

All flavours of epic, considering West’s celebrity and Cole’s standing as Hip Hop’s favorite underdog, this feat should hopefully see the album pushed far beyond heights attained by his ‘Cole World’ debut and go Platinum within the year.

So, perhaps as a thank you for their undying loyalty, Cole surprised his fans with a special guest at last night’s showing of the ‘Dollar & A Dream‘ Tour.

For all her shortcomings, there’s no denying Rihanna‘s music will go down in Pop history as some of best.

Sure, while this is no credit to her skill as a writer, her brand of high end Pop does make for impressive listening with or without the bells and whistles in place to push it.

Now check her performing one of the songs- ‘Stay‘- during her gig at London’s Twickenham Stadium below!

The series of attacks did see some of pop’s top performers earn favor from the chart absentee however, as the likes of Rihanna, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga were all showered with praises.

But, as the tweets below reveal, that courtesy was not extended to a certain 17-time Grammy winner…
