While most artists release their album’s first single ahead of its parent project, Kanye West has opted to take the unconventional route of reversing the process.  First unveiling his latest chart-topper, ‘Jesus is King,’ to the masses on October 25, the warm commercial reception of the effort was not only reflected on the Billboard 200 but the Hot 100 as well as all 11 of its songs charted.

The frontrunner of the pack of tracks is ‘Follow God.’  Announced earlier this week as the set’s official lead single, the cut premiered at #7 on the Hot 100 (coming as the 18th top 10 hit of the Grammy winner’s career).  Now, in a bid to take it to higher heights, fans are invited to preview its Jake Schreier-directed music video.

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.

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:
