All roads lead to November 19 for Taylor Swift, who will be unwrapping the re-recorded version of her album ‘Red’ on said date.

Aptly titled ‘Red (Taylor’s Version),’ ample excitement surrounds the set which follows the release of ‘Fearless (Taylor’s Version).’

That LP topped the charts upon its arrival in April.

Both form part of a broad re-release drive by the Pop titan, who has embarked on the empowering venture after her original master recordings were sold without her involvement.

Ever creative, Swift is whetting appetites by way of a mysterious ‘Red’ teaser video that encourages viewers to uncover which new (From The Vault) tracks will feature on the project, as well as collaborators.

Billie Eilish is going acoustic.

For, the GRAMMY-winner has released a live performance of ‘Male Fantasy,’ the closing track from her latest album, ‘Happier Than Ever’ (stream it here).

In her latest clip, Eilish is adorned in a cream-colored outfit as she sings from a large bed in a mahogany room.

While ‘Your Power’ saw her and brother Finneas side-by-side, ‘Male Fantasy’ perform the song separately, with Finneas seated on the far right side of the room.

Out of the blue, Blac Chyna took to Twitter Monday (August 2) to allege Tyga – her GRAMMY-nominated ex-boyfriend and the father of her oldest child – enjoyed the company of transgender women.

While some perceived the random announcement as an attempt to embarrass the ‘Taste’ rapper (and validate years of rumors that have plagued him), most found the revelation distasteful – a widely shared stance that ended in backlash for Blac Chyna (as we reported here).

As the hoopla from the incident continued well into the week, now the model-turned-reality star is denying she ever made the statement.

DaBaby‘s easily been the hottest topic in music since his controversial showing at Rolling Loud last week (July 25) saw him launch a homophobic rant against ‘men who suck d*ck in parking lots’ and people living with HIV/AIDS.

As expected, a massive fallout ensued – one that’s not only seen him lose endorsement and concert festival appearances but also experience publicly damning from LGBTQ+ allies and advocates, fans, and even fellow celebrities.

Related to the latter, ‘Pose’ star Angelica Ross is the latest celebrity to make headlines for her commentary on the embattled rapper.  Unlike the likes of Elton John, Dua Lipa, Madonna, Miley Cyrus, and others before her, Ross watched the tide turn on her!

As the 20th anniversary of Aaliyah‘s untimely passing approaches (August 25), the singer’s estate continues to battle her Blackground Records label – helmed by her uncle Barry Hankerson – for control of her music and legacy.

Early Wednesday (August 4), Hankerson sent the late singer’s fans into a frenzy when he launched the cryptic website AaliyahisComing.com – a reported tease that suggests previously unheard Aaliyah music (as well as her entire prized discography) will finally be lifted to streaming services courtesy of his new label, Blackground 2.0.

The move to use the ‘Rock the Boat’ beauty’s catalog to launch his newest business venture has rocked many the wrong way, including her estate.  Look inside to see how they responded to the news.
