“Historic” seems to be the theme of the 63rd annual GRAMMY Awards.

In just the pre-show alone, the ceremony’s broken its record books wide open by handing out unprecedented awards to the likes of Tiffany Haddish, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion, Blue Ivy Carter (daughter of Beyonce), and more (as we’ve reported here).  And if the recently reported wins are anything to judge by, they’re not stopping any time soon.

See how Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande have been granted access to GRAMMY history books inside:

It’s been nearly 27 years since Rap legend Nas burst onto the scene with his iconic debut album, ‘Illmatic.’

In the time since, the rapper – now 47-years-old – has become a mainstay in the upper rankings of critics’ ‘best ever’ lists among his Hip Hop peers.

Despite being no stranger to acclaim, Nas (born Nasir Jones) has never been awarded a golden grammophone from the Recording Academy.

At the 63rd annual edition of the ceremony, that changed.

Wild card indeed.

Ledisi‘s powerhouse vocals have powered her to 13 nominations over the course of her 21-year career, with the earliest dating back to a Best New Artist mention at the 2008 ceremony.

As fans and critics alike have cried foul over the diva’s unceremonious snubs year-after-year, 2021 has brought with it a shocking upset in her favor.

Justin Bieber staged a musical takeover at the 2021 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.

Backed by an army of dancers, the Pop pin-up delivered performances of hits such as ‘Intentions,’ ‘Hold On,’ and ‘Anyone.’

The showing comes a week before JB unleashes his sixth studio album, ‘Justice.’

It also arrives as Bieber gears up for tonight’s GRAMMYs, where he’s up for four awards.

Kirk Franklin is speaking up and out after audio of his verbal altercation with his eldest son Kerrion went viral.

As reported, the ‘Stomp’ performer sounded like he wanted to do exactly that to his offspring – who leaked the audio of their expletive-heavy disagreement.

Now, in a somber video, the star has issued an apology.

He also added further context, revealing that his son’s relationship with the family has been “toxic” for some time and that the Franklins therapist was also on a portion of the call that conveniently wasn’t shared.

Sheryl Underwood has broken her silence on Sharon Osbourne‘s shocking outburst on The Talk. 

As reported, the 68-year-old came under fire and brimstone when she was quizzed about her support for Piers Morgan, who sensationally “left” his role on Good Morning Britain after making remarks about Meghan Markle that many believe to be rooted in racism.

Osbourne’s defensive stance during the segment (which included her demanding that Underwood not cry because she is the one “who should be crying”) went viral.

The fall-out has been thick and fast, with Osbourne issuing an apology to the Black community (but then claiming to have been “blindsided”) and CBS launching a formal investigation.

Now Underwood is speaking up and out. Her words, which came during an interview with Steve Harvey, below…

If audio from an alleged leaked phone call is to be believed, Gospel legend Kirk Franklin meant it when he promised the stomp, the whole stomp, and nothing but the stomp – this time to his estranged eldest son, Kerrion.

Nearly three years after Kerrion, who is also a musician, first took to Instagram to accuse his ‘sneaky’ father of ‘trying to kill him’ (click here to read more), he has returned to the platform with alleged proof of his dad’s hostility.

The evidence came courtesy of a recorded phone call that appears to show the ‘Melodies from Heaven’ hitmaker spewing a profanity-fueled rant toward the younger Franklin – even threatening to put his ‘foot in the a**’ and ‘break the neck’ of the 33-year-old.

That’s not all he’s accused of saying.  Hear the audio inside and see how Twitter’s responding to the hoopla.
