Giveon recently reached the sumit of the Billboard Hot 100 for the first time by way of his appearance on Justin Bieber‘s smash ‘Peaches.’ However, it’s the 26-year-old’s own hit – ‘Heartbreak Anniversary’ – that has fueled his ascend.

The lyrically piercing anthem has magnetized the masses and become a bonafide R&B smash.

In a testament to its resonance with the masses, the RIAA have honored the song for crossing a major new milestone.

Usher has long been a trailblazer and the superstar continued alongside said trajectory by becoming one of the first major names to return to the stage after a year like no other.

The performer played to a sold-out capacity crowd at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace as he launched his long-awaited Las Vegas residency.

It goes without saying that the veteran is armed with an arsenal of hits and he wasn’t shy to show them off in seismic style during the super-slick show.

Indeed, Ush rocked out to classics such as ‘Yeah,’ ‘Nice & Slow,’ ‘U Make Me Wanna,’ ‘Climax,’ and ‘My Boo.’

He also dazzled with newer numbers such as Billboard Adult R&B #1 ‘Bad Habits’ and ‘I Don’t Mind.’

Spears, who is seeking to be liberated from the legal mandate, has repeatedly unpacked her belief that it has been “abusive” and “excessive.” She has also slammed those at its helm, including her father and medical professionals – adding that she wishes to sue.

Now, she’s taken to Instagram and colored in her sentiments the more.

Pop Smoke‘s second studio album ‘Faith’ arrived this week amidst ample anticipation.

Comprised of 20-tracks, the set was formally announced with a little lead-in – which only elevated buzz around the project.

Boasting an all-star list of guests such as Kanye West, Chris Brown, Dua Lipa, and Future in the mix, all eyes are peeled to see whether Pop’s new collection soars to similar heights.

The first-week sales forecast is here and brings with it the answer.
