#BTSWeek continues at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,’ much to the delight of the group’s dedicated fans.

Last night (September 29), the K-Pop septet rocked the late night talk show with a live performance of their global hit, ‘Home’ – the follow-up performance from Monday night’s (September 28) high octane live rendition of their 2018 Platinum hit, ‘Idol.’

With his 17-track mixtape, ‘Daystar,’ on the fast track to next week’s top 10 (as we reported here), Tory Lanez is looking to improve his placement by releasing more material from the controversial set.

The latest tune from the effort to get the visual treatment is ‘Most High.’ 

In its Edgar Esteves-directed accompanying clip, the 28-year-old fields questions from a courtroom full of reporters after being found not guilty of a crime (a clear reference to his ongoing drama with Megan Thee Stallion).

“Soon as I get my masters back, they want chatter (Haha) / Now I’m independent, n*ggas won’t fend it (Facts) / White labels tryna turn my Black folk against me / Been sellin’ weed, that n*gga don’t affect me (Ha),” he raps on the high octane track.

It’s been over two months since Summer Walker nabbed her second top 10 placement on the Billboard 200 thanks to her latest EP, ‘Life on Earth’ (as we reported here), but she’s far from done with the project’s promo cycle.

Two weeks after taking to ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ to give the live treatment to fan favorite ‘Body’ (found aboard her Platinum-selling debut album ‘Over It’), she’s returned focus to ‘Earth’ by showcasing her vocal prowess on its standout cut, ‘Let It Go.’

Did you miss the action when it originally aired Monday night (September 28) on ‘The Late Late Show with James Corden’?

Alicia Keys may have watched her latest album, ‘ALICIA,’ soar to top 5 status on this week’s Billboard 200 after an aggressive promotional campaign in its support (as we reported here), but the 15-time GRAMMY winner is showing no signs of slowing down on the trail.

One of the latest bids to ensure its prolonged tenure on the chart comes courtesy of a behind the scenes look at the music video of the LP’s current single, ‘Love Looks Better.’

Two weeks after unveiling the song live at the 2020 NFL Kickoff Concert (as we reported here), Keys introduced its official accompanying clip steered by ‘Love & Basketball’ director Gina Prince-Bythewood. Now, as the tune and its attached visual continue to garner critical acclaim, the star has invited fans to take a peek at how the action came to be.

Chadwick Boseman‘s incredible talent will shine for all to see and celebrate in upcoming the Netflix movie ‘Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom.’

The film, which serves as the final performance from the actor who died last month, is based on the acclaimed August Wilson‘s play of the same name.

Set in the late 1920s, the production chronicles the life of Blues singer Ma Rainey – played by Viola Davis.

Due on the streaming service on December 18, the film will explore issues of race, music, relationships, and the exploitation of Black recording artists.

Before its arrival, check out the first look stills from the hotly anticipated film…

#BTSWeek at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ is only at the halfway mark as the 7-member group has three more “live” performances to render before bringing it to a close.

Before they rocked the late nite talk series with showings of previous hits ‘Idol’ and ‘Home’ (as we reported here), however, they filmed an unofficial music video of themselves performing their chart-topping smash ‘Dynamite’ with the show’s resident GRAMMY-winning musicians The Roots.

Tapping host Fallon to assist, look inside to see The Roots join RM, Jin, SUGA, j-hope, Jimin, V and Jung Kook of BTS for a ‘Brady Bunch’-inspired rendition of the current #1 song in the USA.

It’s been over 10 years since the music video for Alicia Keys and Beyonce‘s duet, ‘Put It In a Love Song,’ was filmed in Brazil but – for specific reasons undisclosed by either party – was never properly released.

The Swizz Beatz-produced song, featured on Keys’ fourth studio album ‘Element of Freedom’ (2009), was set to be the LP’s fourth official single yet was eventually scrapped despite having tapped famed music video director Melina Matsoukas to helm its accompanying visual.

In the time since, Alicia has fielded many questions about its release status – most of which she’s dodged with ambiguous answers.  Now, hot on the promo trail of her seventh studio album ‘ALICIA,’ the 15-time GRAMMY winner was quizzed again on if the clip will ever see the light of day.

See what she said about that and so much more inside:

Over 20 years into her stellar career and it still appears 2020 may be Jennifer Lopez‘s best year yet.

As if kicking the year off with a history-making, high octane Super Bowl Halftime Show performance wasn’t enough (which later earned her an EMMY nomination), the singer-actress earned a Golden Globe nod and Oscar buzz for her role in the 2019 film, ‘Hustlers.’

While she left the aforementioned ceremonies empty-handed, the E! People’s Choice Awards are looking to add a new member to her mantel as the triple threat diva has been slated to receive the event’s most prestigious trophy.

In the wake of ending her engagement to Max Ehrich just two months after it was announced (click here to read more on that), Demi Lovato dropped a new song, ‘Still Have Me.’

The heart-tugging ballad, which was teased via Twitter late Tuesday night (September 29) before its Wednesday arrival (September 30), sees the GRAMMY nominee pour out an emotional performance like never before.

“Everything around me shattered/ All the highs are now just lows/ But it doesn’t even matter/ ‘Cause I’d rather be alone/ All my love disappeared and I’m layin’ right here while the silence is piercing/ And it hurts to breath/ I don’t have much but at least I still have me,” she wails on the Gospel-inspired track.

Kanye West may be making more headlines for his personal and political antics than his professional, but diehard fans are still keeping their eyes and ears on his prized catalog.

Proof of this has come via the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) which recently updated its certification logs to better reflect West’s sales status in the United States.  From content found aboard his debut album, 2004’s ‘College Dropout,’ to his later works ‘Life of Pablo’ (2016) and ‘Ye’ (2018), the GRAMMY-winning rapper/producer saw over 30 of his songs upgraded in the RIAA books with the highest coming as the now 9x Platinum certified hit, ‘Stronger’ (2007).

His refreshed cumulative tally, which equates to approximately 105 million in digital U.S. sales, makes him the fifth most successful artist of the digital era – trailing only behind Drake, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, and Eminem.

The win makes him the first male artist who debuted in the 2000s to cross the 100M barrier in digital sales.  Look inside to see the updates:
