Jhene Aiko may have garnered critical acclaim over the last few months for trying to lull her fans to slumber with the unconventional ‘Sleep Soul’ musical series, but the venture only awakened calls for official new music from the GRAMMY-nominated songbird – a call she’s finally answered with ‘Calm & Patient.’

“I’m satisfied with life / I do not just get by, I thrive,” she sings on the Amaire Johnson and Julian Le-produced cut. “What a miracle to be up and alive / Sending love to those who are stuck in the fight.”

If you thought ‘Players‘ becoming Coi Leray‘s first Hot 100 top 10 hit on the wings of amassing a massive 10 billion plays on Tik Tok and over six billion streams on digital music platforms globally was enough, you thought wrong.

To ensure the song’s continued ascent on the chart, Leray is reinventing it again – this time thanks to help from fellow rappers Tokischa and veteran emcee Busta Rhymes.

While the former sees the featured rapstress alternate between English and Spanish as she pins her unmistakable Dominican flair to it, the latter sees Busta bless the Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five-sampling song with his inimitable turbo-boosted bars.

Arriving on the heels of the ‘Players’ revamps guested by David Guetta, DJ Smallz, and others, hop inside to hear the latest two iterations of the enduring track.

As an anchoring member of R&B royalty Xscape, LaTocha Scott has been in the spotlight for three decades.

However, 2023 has seen the vocalist come under scrutiny like never before.

Indeed, LaTocha has found herself at the center of jaw-dropping drama on the hit Bravo series ‘SWV & Xscape: The Queens of R&B.’

The lion’s share of the chaos has been between the songbird and sister Tamika Scott – who accused her sibling of stealing $30,000 worth of royalties on the show.

Then there’s also the lingering issues between LaTocha and Kandi Burruss, both of whom admit they’ve never got on.

With the feud exploding on social media (by way of shocking interviews, claims of blackmail, and more), it appears LaTocha – who is embarking on a solo Gospel career – has reached the end of her tether.

For, taking to Instagram Live moments ago, she broke down as she unpacked her feelings about the situation.

Davido is back!

The Afrobeats titan has unleashed his brand new album ‘Timeless.’

Arriving as the Nigerian performer’s first LP since 2020’s ‘A Better Time,’ the set sees the star moving forward after much-publicized hardship.

Speaking on the release (which serves as a fusion of sounds), Davido said:

“Timeless is a body of work that goes beyond fashion and trends it’s an authentic body of work that remains true to my core as an artist- using my music to bring joy to my fans across the world. The songs you hear today will be just as relevant tomorrow, that’s why it’s TIMELESS.”

Featuring collaborations with the likes of Asake, Dexta Daps, and Skepta, the album makes its debut in the run-up to his freshly announced comeback shows.

Aptly titled ‘A Timeless Night With Davido,’ the jaunt will see the stage blazer host one-off shows in cities such as London (April 5) and a homecoming show in Lagos.

With collaborative ventures or solo singles like ‘New Normal,’ ‘Last Call,’ ‘Present,’ ‘Skyline,’ and ‘Satellite,’ singer-songwriter Khalid kept fans fed with new music over the last two years and eager to learn the fate of his third studio album – the serially delayed ‘Everything is Changing.’

And while he’s yet to offer an official update on the project’s status, he continues to tease cuts that may line its tracklist. The latest of such stature is ‘Softest Touch.’

A mellow, laidback groove, ‘Touch’ hears Khalid praise a love interest for having everything he’s looking for in a woman.

“You’ve got the softest touch, I just can’t get enough / When it comes to you, you are the one I want / You’ve got the softest touch, I just can’t get enough / This touch, you’ll always be the one I want,” he croons on the hook of the Vaughn Oliver, Blake Straus, and Nico Stadi-produced jam.

K’s first solo offering of 2023, hop inside to hear it in full.
