Taking to social media, the diva shared the shot above with the caption “surprise!” Of course referring to her going to back to black tresses after rocking red in recent years.

Cardi B seems keen to prove that she doesn’t just rap about it, she is about it.

Lucky Daye has been on quite the ascend of late and continues to magnetise the masses with his soulful voice.

If Iggy Azalea‘s own ‘Black Widow’ had a musical baby with Cardi B‘s ‘I Like It,’ we imagine it would be named ‘LOLA.’

The first single from the former’s forthcoming EP, ‘Wicked Lips’ (in stores November 15), the Alice Chater-assisted ‘Lola’ serves as a Latin-inspired affair that sees the saucy Aussie show off, out, and on some of her best bars.  With an equally creative music video to boot, ‘Lola’ proves that Azalea truly is the industry’s ‘little engine that could.’

Undeterred by the commercial nonperformance of her long-awaited sophomore album, ‘In My Defense’ (click here to read more), look inside to hear and see the latest  from the Grammy nominee.  Ooh, it’s kinda crazy…

With Pop star IZA at the reins and Ciara to assist, Major Lazer‘s ‘Evapora’ is a sexy, yet colorful collaboration of worlds uniting R&B, Portuguese, and EDM.

Kicked off by the Brazilian beauty, the 29-year-old shows off some fancy footwork in the desert before being joined by her ‘Level Up’ co-star.  And, once the two joined forces on the choreo, level up is exactly what they did.

Look inside for the highly anticipated number that even sees Cici show off some Portuguese.

Self-proclaimed ‘King of R&B’ Jacquees looks to show-and-tell via his sophomore album.

A surprise drop of sorts (as we reported here), the project – which serves as the follow-up to his 2018 debut album, ‘4275’ – was originally titled ‘Round 2’ and slated for a July 2019 release. Quietly letting its first due date pass, ‘Quees stunned fans earlier this week with the announcement the effort would drop Friday (November 8).

A 14-track affair, King’ has a star-studded guest list and features the likes of T.I., Tory Lanez, Quavo, Young Thug, Gunna, and more.  Will it finally prove to naysayers that the 26-year-old is this generation’s reigning monarch of the ailing genre?

After landing a top 30 hit with the Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign-assisted ‘Swalla’ in 2017, Jason Derulo – instead of following with news about the tune’s official parent project – opted to crank out more songs with no report of what larger body of work the tracks were tied to.

As we reported here, that changed last month when the stage blazer took to Instagram to confirm his new album – the follow-up to 2015’s ‘Everything is 4’ – would arrive November 8.  Originally christened ‘777,’ the opus, now titled ‘2SIDES,’ is actually listed on streaming and digital outlets as a pair of EPs (contrary to previous reports).  Its first installment, which debuted today, houses a six song track list.

And, while it only boasts rapstress Stefflon Don as a feature, the effort does not include any of the standalone tunes Derulo’s dropped over the last two years.

Will it be just what the Miami born singer needs to reignite Stateside interest in his music career?  Listen inside and let us know:

Fantasia‘s ‘Sketchbook’ may have seen her name penciled in the lowest Billboard 200 debut position of her career (as we reported here), but that certainly hasn’t stopped the Grammy winner from forging on in its support.

In addition to hitting the promo trail with a Stateside tour featuring fellow R&B stars Tank, Robin Thicke, and The Bonfyre (click here for dates), Fannie’s also calling on her tourmates to help revamp the LP’s second single – ‘PTSD.’

As its original mix, which lists T-Pain as the guest star, has failed to impact any Billboard chart since its late August release, the diva’s looking to turn the tide on the song and its parent project by calling on Tank and The Bonfyre to assist.

Do they have what it takes to turn ‘P.T.S.D.’ into a ‘H.I.T.’?  Listen inside and tell us:

Nicki Minaj may have placed a pause on her solo activity, but it’s all systems go on the collaborations front.

The femcee teams with Colombian reggaeton wonder Karol G for new single ‘Tusa.’

And the pair are wasting no time kicking off an all-out campaign for the cut, for they’ve simultaneously unleashed its accompanying Mike Ho-directed video.

Check out the colorful, Latin affair after the jump…
