Ella Mai is wasting no time lighting a match under new single ‘Not Another Love Song.’

Rolled out as the GRAMMY winner’s first single in two years, its accompanying video premiered moments ago.

Directed by Lesean Harris, the visual sees the London bred songbird serenaded by her bae, while upping the ante with slick choreography.

Speaking on the release, Mai recently shared that it’s “about falling in love but not wanting to admit it, so it’s quite vulnerable but still has an edge to it.”

Teyana Taylor may be cradling a new baby, but she’s keeping the pedal to the metal when it comes to her LP, ‘The Album.’

For, she has unleashed the video for its latest single ‘Lose Each Other’ and it stars none other than Sir Elton John. 

From sound to generation, the pairing no doubt is unique. And one that Taylor couldn’t be any more ecstatic about.

Speaking on the visual, which she self-direced, she said:

“’Lose Each Other’ is such a special record for me, and I wanted the visual to feel just as big. I told my team ‘you know what would be dope? If I could have Elton John open the video on the piano!!

Not that I thought it could really happen, but just putting it out there in the universe lol. So as we were working through treatment ideas and solidifying logistics for the video, an international phone number calls me…. and for a second I almost didn’t answer, but my intuition spoke, I answered. All I hear is…’Hello darling, it’s Elton. I’d LOVE to do your video!’ I FREAKED OUT!”

The Super Bowl Halftime Show is known as the biggest spectacle on Earth and for good reason given the 100 million+ eyes that are annually glued to TV screens in its anticipation.

Compounded with the opportunity to be etched in history is the highly coveted slot’s boosts in its performers’ sales, streams, recognition, and – for some – accolades (see: Emmy nominations).

Amid ongoing criticism of the NFL’s response to complaints of its treatment of players of color (as well as slow response to the issue of racial injustice at large), the league’s tapped Jesse Collins – courtesy of Roc Nation – to serve as the extravaganza’s first African American executive producer.

With the spotlight brighter than ever for Collins and the show to deliver next year, who among today’s crop of top acts is deserving to become immortalized by joining an exclusive list that includes the likes of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, & more?

Both Rexha and Doja Cat were both dressed in neon outfits set against a rainforest background.

The pair sizzled as they both sang the chorus:

“Baby, I’m jealous / Of the pictures that you like / Baby, I’m jealous / Of the girls with lighter eyes / Baby, I’m jealous / And I know that it ain’t right  / But I’m jealous, jealous / The jealous kind.”

October 16 brought with it ‘The LIBRA’ – the long-awaited new album from T.I.

A star-studded affair featuring the likes of Rick Ross, Young Thug, Killer Mike, Jeremih, 21 Savage, Snoop Dogg, John Legend, and more, the project comes as TIP’s first since 2018’s ‘Dime Trap.’

As ‘Dime’ came as his first effort to miss the Billboard 200’s top 10 since his 2001 debut, ‘I’m Serious,’ the 40-year-old has gotten serious about ensuring ‘LIBRA’ doesn’t suffer a similar fate.  His latest bid to secure a placement in the tally’s topmost dectet comes via new single, ‘Pardon,’ featuring Lil Baby.

She may be hot on the promo trail for her latest album, ‘ALICIA,’ but 15-time GRAMMY winner Alicia Keys doesn’t mind taking a detour trip down memory lane to revisit the hits that made her the best-selling female R&B act of the new millennium.

Forced to postpone the new LP’s supporting world tour due to the ongoing global health crisis (as we reported here), the diva’s making up for the rescheduled jaunt by dedicating free virtual concerts to the B-sides of her first three albums – ‘Songs in A Minor,’ ‘The Diary of Alicia Keys,’ and ‘As I Am.’

Though squeezing in performances of hits like ‘A Woman’s Worth,’ ‘Teenage Love Affair,’ and ‘Diary’ across the 90 minutes of live showings, she primarily focused on fan favorites that never got the official single treatment like ‘Lesson Learned,’ ‘Sure Looks Good to Me,’ ‘Go Ahead,”Girlfriend,’ ‘Wake Up,’ ‘Nobody Not Really,’ and more.
