As we reported here, Brandy was this year’s recipient for the prestigious President’s Award at the BMI R&B/Hip Hop Awards, hosted in Atlanta.

Presented to an individual songwriter, composer, or producer who has made exemplary contributions to the art of music and songwriting and profoundly influenced the entertainment industry, last night (August 29) saw B-Rocka join a list of esteemed honorees that in the past has included the likes of Curtis Mayfield, Toni Braxton and and more.

This week saw Rick Ross capture the sixth #1 album of his career when his latest effort, ‘Port of Miami 2,’ docked on the Billboard Rap charts.

Boasting a #2 debut on the Billboard 200, the set’s impressive chart performance can be attributed (in part) to the string of music videos delivered in its promotion ahead of its premiere – a delivery Ricky Rozay doesn’t seem to be slowing down on any time soon.

Having already teased a visual for the album’s cut, ‘Born to Kill,’ the Grammy-nominee’s preceding that release with the somber video for ‘Fascinated.’  An ode to members of his inner circle who he’s lost over the years (to death, a corrupt criminal justice system, and more), the Bawse’s video is flooded with flashbacks of his longtime manager, Black Bo, who passed away back in late 2017 and more.

Madonna‘s long been regarded as the most successful female recording artist in history thanks not only to her reported 300+ million in record sales, but also a nearly unrivaled 36-year run on the Billboard charts – namely the Hot 100.

Granted, her reigns atop the Billboard 200 with 9 of her 14 studio albums are nothing to shake a stick at (placing her second among women for most career chart-toppers as Barbra Streisand leads with 11), the Queen of Pop’s truest crowning glory has come with the strides she’s made on the singles chart.  With 38 top 10 hits (12 of them hitting #1), she – as of time reported – sits in history books for having the most placements on the chart’s topmost dectet.  Other notable accomplishments include first female artist in history to have 6 (or more) #1 singles, most consecutive top 5 singles of any artist, and she was once listed as the artist who took the shortest time to amass 20 top 10 singles (a feat later surpassed by Rihanna as we reported here).

At present, Madge stands to see another member of the new school – Taylor Swift – break another of her longstanding records:  most top 20 singles of all time (among females).  Details inside:
