From ‘Blinding Lights’ to flashing lights, photographer Pari Dukovic had music superstar The Weeknd striking his best poses for the latest issue of ‘Variety.’

On hand to discuss his latest blockbuster album, ‘After Hours,’ the Grammy winner waxed honest about fears the impact of the coronavirus pandemic would have on the long-awaited project, its accompanying tour, and more.

This side of history may see him the victor of battling those odds as the LP topped the Billboard 200 with gargantuan streaming figures (as we reported here), but behind the unfazed persona the singer (born Abel Tesfaye) wasn’t exactly confident it would.

Look inside to see Tesfaye get personal on this matter, reflect on the darkest days of his life, his Ethiopian heritage, and so much more:

Remy Ma says that she now understands why Nicki Minaj may have had reservations about forming personal relationships with other female rappers.

The years following their bitter war of words has seen Ma use her platforms on social media and television (see ‘Revolt’) to praise her former foe and explain that she relates to a number of the issues she faces as a lady lyricist in an arena dominated by men.

This week she explained why her own issues with disingenuous peers have given her a better understanding and appreciation of Minaj’s decision to keep her distance from them…and their cash hungry handlers.

‘Underdog’ is proving itself a winner for Alicia Keys.

The latest single from her delayed seventh album, ‘ALICIA,’ the Johnny McDaid-produced tune was released in January and only made a brief appearance in the Hot 100 at that time before slipping out of the tally for weeks.

However, after a lifeline came in the form of an Amazon-sponsored push (click here to read more), ‘Underdog’ became an anthem for essential workers in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.  Re-engagement from the public, alongside an aggressive promo campaign that’s seen her perform the song on a number of televised platforms in recent weeks, has spelled well for its renewed performance on the Hot 100.

Justin Bieber may be undergoing some serious changes with his touring schedule due to the global health crisis (as we reported here), but – much to fan delight – his promotion of the jaunt nor the chart-topping project it was named after have been impacted.

Keeping his promise of dropping a new visual each week in support of one of the LP’s cuts, the Grammy winner recently unveiled looks at clips for the songs ‘At Least for Now’ and its album’s title track, ‘Changes.’

While the former tune’s video showcases the fancy footwork of dancer/choreographer Sean Lew, the latter’s sees JB become one with nature like never before.

As Rihanna fans, affectionately called #TheNavy, impatiently wait for new music from the diva, they’re eating up anything she’s attached to in the process.  Case in point? Her feature on PartyNextDoor‘s ‘Believe It.’

The song, which serves as the latest single from his third studio album, ‘PARTYMOBILE’ (released March 27), is the first original material released by Rih since her guest spot on N.E.R.D‘s moderate 2017 hit, ‘Lemon.’

Making an impressive #23 debut on this week’s Hot 100, ‘Believe’s arrival’ marks the end of her longest break ever from the chart as she’s had a top 40 hit in every year since her 2005 debut up to 2017.  Of course, leave it to the Grammy winner-turned-fashion-icon to return in major fashion.

Look inside to see what historic achievement ‘Believe’ brings with it:
