Nene Leakes has left the house she helped build.

As reported, the outspoken star has officially departed the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ – after negotiations between her team and the show’s producers hit an impasse.

Despite making volcanic comments aimed at all at those at the helm of the hit Bravo show (so much so that rumors of legal action went into overdrive), Leakes pivoted and instead soaked her announcement in gratitude.

Her sentiments have since been echoed by both Bravo and Andy Cohen.

Once no stranger to dominating the Billboard Hot 100, ‘In Common’ singer Alicia Keys has seen her last two albums have one glaring stat in common; they both went to chart battle with no Hot 100 top 40 singles to precede them.

While her critically acclaimed 2016-released album, ‘Here,’ didn’t boast any charting singles, its follow-up – the self-titled ‘ALICIA’ – fared better as it at least nabbed two Gold certifications courtesy of the Miguel-assisted ‘Show Me Love’ (#90 peak) and ‘Underdog’ (#69 peak) respectively.

Powered by the relative wins on the Hot 100, ‘ALICIA’ – Keys’ seventh studio LP – is heading to digital shelves with some of her most palpable buzz in recent years thanks to positive press garnered from its tunes shedding light on social issues like the global health crisis, #BlackLivesMatter, and more (see: ‘Perfect Way to Die,’ ‘Love Looks Better,’ ‘Good Job,’ ‘Underdog,’ and more).

Is that hype enough to lift her to the top of the Billboard 200?

It’s only been 7 months since Justin Bieber topped the charts with his fifth studio album, ‘Changes,’ but due to its mixed critical reviews and poor sales performance (compared to its predecessors) the crooner is making a few changes of his own.

Blessing fans with new song ‘Holy,’ the Chance the Rapper-assisted cut is reportedly the first lifted from Bieber’s yet-titled studio album.

Keith Urban played double duty Wednesday night (September 16) at the 55th annual Academy of Country Music Awards.

On hand as the ceremony’s host, Urban also unveiled the first televised live performance of his new song ‘One Too Many,’ which features fellow GRAMMY winner P!nk.

The tune – which made its premiere just hours before the ACM Awards aired live (click here to read more) – comes as one of many gems set to line Urban’s September 18-due new album, ‘The Speed of Now (Part 1).’

With her highly anticipated, new self-titled album charging toward digital shelves September 18, 15-time GRAMMY winner is hot on the promo trail in its support with her most recent stop coming courtesy of a visit to ‘Good Morning America’ Thursday (September 17).

Chatting it up with resident anchor Michael Strahan about the new project (her first since 2016’s ‘Here’), Keys also gave an impassioned speech about the #BlackLivesMatter movement as well as honored essential frontline workers who have sacrificed for the health and safety of others during the global health crisis.

A great watch, look inside to hear Alicia’s address and see her crank out live renditions of some of her most beloved hits.

Sam Smith‘s third era may have kicked off in a promising manner thanks to the Normani-assisted ‘Dancing with a Stranger’ (one of the biggest songs of 2019), but the follow-up tunes lifted from its accompanying album – previously titled ‘To Die For’ – have all had varying levels of success on the Hot 100 with some missing the tally all together.

Hoping to change the tide, Smith is shining light on a new single: the Shellback & Oscar Holter-produced ‘Diamonds.’

Announced just Monday (September 15), the song arrives nearly two months after the GRAMMY winner’s last ill-fated release ‘My Oasis’ (featuring Burna Boy).’

Is ‘Diamonds’ just what’s needed to rescue Smith’s new album? Listen inside and tell us:

From the Pop charts and most recently to tennis courts, Mariah Carey is no stranger to delivering a smash hit.

That’s why it was no surprise when the supreme songbird took vocal flight at the 2020 US Open recently to unveil the “live music video” of her latest single, ‘Save the Day’ (as we reported here).

Filmed at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, the showing only increased anticipation for the song’s parent set – ‘The Rarities’ – which is set to hit digital shelves October 2.

Ahead of its arrival, Mimi’s inviting fans to take a behind the scenes look at the clip’s creation.

Ahead of the release of ‘Holy’s official music video Friday (September 18), look below to see a preview of the clip (which features cameos from Ryan Destiny, Wilmer Valderrama, and more):

Almost two months after Chris Brown made headlines for declining an invite to battle Usher on the wildly popular #VERZUZ platform (click here to read that), the ‘Confessions’ crooner has similarly confessed he has no interest in participating in a hit-for-hit duel…with anybody.

His comments echo a previously made statement by his ‘Shake Down’ duet partner Mary J. Blige who also shook her head when quizzed on her desire to spar with a musical equivalent on the Instagram-hosted arena.
