March 27 marks the 50th birthday anniversary of Pop icon Mariah Carey‘s arrival to Earth.

With a library of inimitable vocal moments and career milestones to her credit, That Grape Juice – in honor of her 50th – has assembled 50 of our favorite Mimi minutes 

Take a look and weigh in below:

Khalid reminds viewers of the importance of not settling for less with his latest inspirational single, ‘Know Your Worth.’

Tapping DJ duo Disclosure to assist, the Daniel Russel-directed visual – which surfaces just a month after the song hit digital retailers – sees Grammy-nominee team up with a colorful dance crew to help drive the message home.

 “You don’t know your worth/All the things I know that you deserve,” he sings on the chorus. “Say it’s not real if it doesn’t hurt/Find someone you know will put you first/Find someone who loves you at your worst.”

Love is in the air for Da Brat!

The femcee/actress/radio personality took to Instagram recently to tearfully break news her fiancée – hair care mogul Jesseca Dupart – imparted quite the early birthday gift in honor of the ‘Funkdafied’ hitmaker’s birthday next month.

Immensely private about her love life over the years, the recent announcement has seen a collection of congratulatory messages sent her way in light of the report.

Tory Lanez is no stranger to making headlines for delivering his fair share of hits, but in the past most of them have been limited to the Hot 100.

Recently, as revealed by a viral video, the ‘Say It’ performer thought to take a more physical approach.  Reaching out to touch rising R&B singer Joshua Benoit in a filmed barbershop scuffle Tuesday (March 24), Lanez apparently wanted to dish out fades of a different nature than what spectators were on hand for.

In recent months the world has learned that R. Kelly is no stranger to poor hygiene.

Now it seems, after developing quite the reputation for taking matters of the toilet into the bedroom, the Pied Piper is afraid of being taken out by something just as filthy as he is.

Pioneers of the music video may have nursed MTV from its infancy, but by 1989, the very vehicle that helped transport many to chart summits threatened to desert them for refusing to evolve with the art form into the next decade.

And while some protested prioritizing the maturing medium, Madonna – a video virtuoso who’d pushed the visual needle forward faster and farther than any of her female contemporaries – had become its gold standard.  Barring King of Pop Michael Jackson, no other artist had taken command of the platform quite like she had – elevating musical clips from mere performance cuts to full-on short films.

As 1990 approached, the diva, albeit at the most untouchable phase of her superstardom, was still 30-something in an increasingly ageist music industry.  The harsh reality of that (and the changing musical tide around her) made morphing that much more of a necessity for Pop’s top chameleon.

Her answer to the challenge?  The Shep Pettibone-produced ‘Vogue.’

After years out of the musical spotlight, Rihanna makes her long-awaited return on PARTYNEXTDOOR‘s ‘Believe It.’

The track – which arrived moments ago as part of the latter’s new album, ‘PARTYMOBILE’ – lines the set’s tracklist alongside Drake (‘Loyal’), Bad Bunny (‘Loyal’ remix), and other high profile guests.

Coming as the first taste of new music the masses have gotten from Rih since her 2017 N.E.R.D collaboration, ‘Lemon,’ anticipation for the the diva’s ninth studio album is sky high.

Will this drop of newness be enough to quench thirsts? Listen below and let us know…

While most artists have postponed their single and/or album drops in the wake of the ongoing global health crisis, Pop diva Dua Lipa went against the grain to advance the release of her highly anticipated sophomore album, ‘Future Nostalgia’ (as we reported here).

Due in part to an unexpected early leak, ‘Nostalgia’s arrival – kicked off by her highest Hot 100-charting single to date, ‘Don’t Start Now,’ as well as the critically acclaimed cut ‘Physical’ – was also preceded by the early release of its latest single, ‘Break My Heart.’

Taking center stage in ways like never before (as none of its 11 tracks have a listed feature), what the LP lacks in high profile guest stars it certainly makes up for with a who’s who of producers.  Collecting beats and lyrics from the likes of some of Pop’s heaviest hitters (i.e. Stuart Price, The Monsters and the StrangerzJeff Bhasker, Ian Kirkpatrick, and more), look inside for your first listen:
