Ciara salutes the voices speaking up and out for racial equality on new release ‘Rooted (ft. Ester Dean).’

Arriving on the heels of the mass Black Lives Matter protests, the song and its accompanying video mirror the mantra – celebrating melanin in all its majestic marvel and magic.

Upon the unleashing of the visual moments ago, CiCI revealed that she shot the clip just two days before giving birth to her second son Win Harrison Wilson.

“F*** You” singer Cee Lo Green had fans of Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, and Megan Thee Stallion saying just that to him after he branded the ladies’ respective expressions of sexuality as ‘desperate’ (as we reported here).

Now, after drawing harsh criticism from the rappers’ fans and supporters for his “misguided” his weigh in, the Gnarls Barkley leader is reeling back the comments.

Taking to social media Wednesday (August 12), Green stated:

“There seems to be a misunderstanding with a quote taken from an interview I did a few days ago while promoting my new project,” he started. “Firstly, I’m an advocate of artistic freedom and expression as well as a fan of Nicki, Cardi & Meagan [sic]. I know most of them personally and consider Cardi & Offset family. Therefore, I would never disrespect them by any means.”

That’s not all he said. Look inside for the full statement:

15-time GRAMMY winner Alicia Keys was already among the most-certified R&B artists to debut to this century, but now – thanks to a slew of updates from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) – she’s solidified that placement.

Thanks to her brazen brand of ‘shock comedy,’ quotes from comedienne-actress Sandra Bernhard were no stranger to controversy at the height of her career in the late 80’s and early 90’s.

Decades later, that same material is landing the 65-year-old in hot water as clips from a 1998 stand-up gig saw the award-winning comic refer to Pop icon Mariah Carey as the ‘N-word.’

Despite not reaching the top 10 status it was initially predicted to, ASAP Ferg and Nicki Minaj‘s latest duet – ‘Move Ya Hips’ – still made impressive moves on the Hot 100 (as we reported here).

Debuting at #19 on the tally, the Frankie P-produced cut marks the third collaboration between the hit rappers (following ‘Plain Jane’ and ‘Runnin’) and is their highest rung reached on the chart to date.

In a bid to make it their first top 10 hit, the duo (alongside MadeinTYO) have released its cinematic accompanying music video which tells the tale of a fantasy-gone-wrong after a man orders a lady robot online that has the most unfortunate…umm…malfunction.

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion made a splash with their raunchy visual for ‘WAP,’ which has the rappers set to top the charts in the coming week.

However, the racy nature of both the song and video (which stand for “Wet A** P***y”) hasn’t thrilled all.

Indeed, as reported, CeeLo Green lambasted the duo (along with other femcees) for their displays of sexuality. And a sect of other males have echoed similar sentiments.

Not one to hold back, Meg addressed the matter and highlighted hypocrisy.

Season five of the ‘Real Housewives of Potomac’ is off to a fire-filled start – and it’s only two episodes in!

Viewers of the Bravo hit are seeing an unfolding storyline involving Monique Samuels; one that seems to be building towards her widely reported physical altercation with castmate Candiace Dillard. 

Interestingly, former cast-member Charrisse Jackson-Jordan appears to be at the center of the drama and is touted as spreading “lies.”

With tongues wagging in earnest, Samuels took to Instagram Live with her husband, ex-footballer Chris Samuels, to spill all on what she says has been a multi-year plot by several of the RHOP ladies.
