Rising Soul star Alex Parvenu has written the most fitting Christmas record ‘My Christmas Tree’ – which he has accompanied with musical short film to capture the mood many in the world are feeling right now.

To push it to higher heights on the Hot 100, Mai’s hitting the promo trail in the song’s support.  A month after giving the tune its live television premiere on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’ (click here to watch), she followed with a visit to Google for their newly-launched ‘Nest Sessions’ series.

2020’s Virgo season has come and gone, but for KeKe Palmer it’s a year-round affair.

After winning over music lovers with her ‘Virgo Tendencies Part I’ EP in August (click here to stream), the actor-singer returned in December with the set’s second installment – ‘Virgo Tendencies Part II.’

Like its predecessor, ‘Part II’ was produced by Grammy-winning songwriter and producer Tasha Catour and stands as a largely feature-less affair (save for an appearance from GRAMMY nominated rapper Rick Ross). Unlike its forerunner, ‘Part II’ packs its punch in nearly half the tracklist (boasting only 7 songs versus the 12 on ‘Part I’).

Look inside to stream the project via Apple Music and Spotify.
