“If at first you don’t succeed, dust yourself off and try again”

This seems to be a mantra will.i am has embraced, for the hitmaker has announced he is to release another solo album.

Some may remember the Black Eyed Peas star’s first bid at singular stardom, 2008’s ‘Songs About Girls’, which bombed in quite spectacular fashion upon released. Indeed, the set debuted at #38 and sold just 21,000 copies in its first week on sale.

In the four years since then, the producer has gone on to amass a successful body of work with other artists; success, we’re sure rebuilt his confidence to launch a chart assault on his own accord now the Pea’s are on hiatus.

Find out more about his sophomore set, and its accompanying lead single, after the jump…

For such a young talent, Wynter Gordon has already made quite the mark.

Indeed, the New York based singer-songwriter has been a staple ‘behind the scenes’ of the industry, penning hits for the likes of Mary J. Blige, Jennifer Lopez, and David Guetta. 

And while this year saw her break out as an act in her own right, it’s 2012 which’ll see Gordon launch a full-on chart assault.

Until then, let her whet your appetite with a stunning acoustic rendition of her summer smash ‘Dirty Talk’, right here on the latest episode of The Splash!

‘On the Floor’ songstress Jennifer Lopez was spotted on the red carpet of the 2011 Glamour magazine ‘Women of the Year’ awards (November 7) looking every flavor of fierce.  The 42-year-old, who also graces the December cover of the popular mag, was the evening’s honoree and was presented the award by fashion icon/designer Donatella Versace.

The honor comes amidst a slew of projects the diva has in the works including talent shows ‘American Idol’ and “Q’Viva! The Chosen”, as well as a forthcoming video for ‘Hard’ with Will.I.Am and Mick Jagger.

 The MTV EMAs 2011 was certainly one of the year’s most electrifying events on the industry calender, with show-stopping performances from Lady GaGa, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, among others.

In the words of diva rival Mariah, Jennifer Lopez looks hot tamale in the shot above.

And while you’d be forgiven for thinking the pic depicts the singer in her heyday, a throwback post this is not.

Indeed, it was snapped this weekend on the set of the video for will.i.am‘s latest single ‘Hard’ – which the 42 year old mother features on.

Needless to say, Ms. Lopez is proving that, while some age like milk, she’s ageing like the finest of wines. Work!

Your thoughts?

While one diva sang about moving like Jagger, another is preparing to move with him.  For, as reported here, comeback queen Jennifer Lopez has joined forces with legendary rocker Mick Jagger and producer/Black Eyed Peas frontman Will.I.Am for quite the unexpected musical mixture.  The result?  ‘Hard’ – the futuristic club banger that has been making its rounds across many an outlet.

While fans awaited the fate of the track, J. Lo (speaking with Extra) confirms that a video is indeed in the works for the song and explained how the collab came about.  Fans are undoubtedly in a frenzy as the news comes on the heels of Lopez’s own musical venture, ‘Papi’, hitting #1 on U.S. Dance charts this week.

Find out what J. Lo said and give the song a go below:

A regal-looking Jennifer Lopez glowed last night when she Samsung celebrated the success of her charity -the Maribel Foundation at Best Buy in West Los Angeles.

The American Idol judge set up the fund, which benefits the improvement of the health and well-being of women and children, and received a generous pledge from the electrical giant $500,000 towards her efforts.

Your thoughts?

With the 2012 Grammy Award nominations set to be announced next month, buzz for the industry’s most prestigious night continues to intensify.

And though the noms are undeniably the main driver of the show itself, the list of label-submissions for each category makes for a compelling read.
