Jamie Foxx has touched the top of both Billboard and the box office. As such, it’s no surprise that after an elongated spell away from music, the multi-talented crooner is back with new material.

No timeline has been set for the release the star’s new album (the first since 2008’s ‘Intuition’), however that hasn’t stopped Foxx from firing out fresh songs.

Last Fall brought with it the 2 Chainz assisted ‘Party Ain’t A Party.’ Today, though, ushers in the arrival of ‘P.Y.T.’

Heavily sampling the Michael Jackson classic of the same name, Jamie spreads a tasty coat of DJ Mustard‘s magic and serves up a filling result.

With the look, the sound, and the moves in abundance, if ever there was a pop perusal for today’s “total package,” Jessie J would be that with a bow on top.

Now, with three years separating U.S. fans from a new album from the powerhouse vocalist, it seems that anticipation to unwrap unheard music from said “package” has reached feverish pitch.  Evidence of such not only lies with the high performance of lead single ‘Bang Bang’ (featuring Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj) on the Billboard Hot 100, but also the acclaim that followed with ‘Burning Up’ (ft. 2 Chainz) and the album’s title track.

Her introductory set, ‘Who You Are,’ narrowly missed the Billboard 200 back in 2011 with a modest 34,000 sold its first week.  Now that fans across the pond know who she is, will we see ‘Sweet Talker’ burning up the charts next week?

Three years after YouTube searches for the Kreayshawn‘s ‘Gucci Gucci’ introduced the world to related videos released by a then unsigned Iggy Azalea, the visual’s featured act Lil Debbie has weighed in on their fellow femcee Lil Kim.

Speaking to ‘Hip Hop DX‘, Debbie revealed that although she remains a “hard core” Kim fan, she feels her recent attempts to regain Rap relevancy have seen her cheapen her brand, calling on the ‘Stadium Music’ star to retire for “nobody cares anymore.”

It’s hard to believe that today marks eight years (yes, eight) since Fergie unleashed her debut solo album ‘The Duchess’ on the masses.

And while we could go down memory lane and reminisce on the countless jams the multi-Platinum set gave birth to, we’d much rather rejoice at the newest news surrounding the Black Eyed Peas front-woman.

For, according to fresh reports, the 39-year-old is gearing up to release new music…and soon.
