Soulja Boy has spent more than a decade in the spotlight, however in recent years he’s become more synonymous with beef and scandal.

It’s a trajectory that doesn’t look set to stop following the rapper’s interview on The Breakfast Club this morning.

Ever outspoken, the star demanded that the industry at large respect him because he “started” the digital rap revolution with 2007’s ‘Crank That.’

He also sunk his claws into Tyga and Kanye West.

Perhaps most notable, however, was his words about Drake who he says stole his swag. He verbatim told Charlamagne, DJ Envy, and Angela Yee that he taught Drizzy everything he knows.

John Legend is gearing up to release what looks to be his most cinematic video yet.

In a newly unwrapped trailer, the 40-year-old trumpets the arrival of new visual ‘Preach.’

“I can’t just sit and hope, I can’t just sit and pray…”

JoJo delighted her legion of loyal fans last month when she re-recorded and released her first and second studio albums.

The songbird’s much publicised legal wrangle with her former label saw the projects (2004’s self-titled set and 2006’s ‘The High Road’) unavailable on digital retail and streaming services.

A wrong, she says, hat she felt compelled to make right.

In a new interview, she expanded on the lengthy process of piecing together the surprise releases. Perhaps most excitingly, though, she also opened up about her next musical chapter – which includes a brand new label deal.

Ciara is the latest artist to take a stand against R. Kelly in the wake of shocking allegations broadcast on Lifetime’s ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ docu-series.

As widely reported, many women spoke up and out against the hitmaker – alleging claims of sexual abuse. With the vast majority accusing the self-styled Pied Piper of carrying out said wrongs while they were underage.

The furore hasn’t been confined to the public, it’s very much generated disgust amongst Kelly’s musical peers too. Several of whom have removed their collaborations with him from the online arena. And CiCi is following suit.
