As we reported here, ‘Joyride’ star Tinashe is cranking out new music at a rapid fire pace.

Not even two weeks after getting fans revved up with her adventurous new cut, ‘Die a Little Bit,’ the 26-year-old’s already driving attention toward its follow-up, the 6LACK-assisted ‘Touch & Go.’

“Meet me in the middle, touch and go / I’m too emotional,” T coos on the emotional track.

One of many gems set to line her forthcoming indie effort, ‘Songs For You,’ ‘Touch’ – announced just yesterday (November 6) – is a slow burning groove that doesn’t exactly take the sonic risk of ‘Die,’ but certainly points her longtime listeners in the direction of sonic cuts akin to those found aboard her sophomore effort.

Will fans appreciate the return to familiar territory?  Listen inside and let us know:

As we reported here, late Pop icon Whitney Houston‘s best friend, Robyn Crawford, sent shock waves through the media earlier today when she revealed she and the ‘I Will Always Love You’ singer were lovers.

Albeit a widely speculated love affair that plagued Houston for most of her career, Crawford had remained silent for decades about the true extent of her relationship with the top-selling diva – until now, as the November 12th release date of her memoir, ‘A Song For You: My Life with Whitney Houston,’ quickly approaches.  First dropping the bombshell via an interview with PEOPLE magazine, now the 58-year-old is on a media blitz to share more intimate details about her time with Whitney.

The most anticipated showing will undoubtedly come courtesy of her emotional chat with NBC’s ‘Dateline.’ Sitting down with resident interviewer Craig Melvin, Robyn divulged details about when she met Houston, how their relationship blossomed from platonic to romantic, and how it ultimately dissolved.

Ahead of its showing in full this Saturday (November 9) at 8/7c, see a preview inside:

After years of speculation, rumor, and mis-information, Robyn Crawford is setting the record straight – she did indeed have a romantic relationship with the late Whitney Houston. 

For decades, Crawford has been as notable for her omnipresence in the singer’s career as she has been for her silence about it.

Yet, with the increased interest in the diva’s life post her tragic death in 2012, her longtime confidant is telling her side of the story. A story that has been told from many perspectives – beside hers – in a number of posthumous documentaries.

Now on the cusp of releasing her memoir, ‘A Song For You: My Life with Whitney Houston,’ Crawford’s account has been previewed by PEOPLE. 

Check out excerpts from the book, which she says she is releasing to “lift her legacy, give her respect and share the story of who she was before the fame,” below…
