Justin Bieber is the latest name to weigh-in on the boiling drama between his manager Scooter Braun and Taylor Swift.

As reported, the music mogul secured the rights to the singer’s master recordings after purchasing her former label Big Machine.

Swift swiftly took to the net to vent – asserting that she knew nothing of the deal until everyone else did and also stressed she’s long had issues with Braun, hence her angst at him specifically owning her life’s work.

With the masses now engaging in heated debate, here’s what Bieber – whose career was shepherded by Braun – had to say (after initially posting and removing a jab)…

As Nicki Minaj debuted nearly a decade before streaming became a piece of the chart puzzle, the rapper’s younger rivals now find themselves tasked with the impossible challenge of matching records she set with pure sales.

The loftiest of these is the records she holds for being the highest-selling female rapper of all time and one of the fastest selling musicians to debut in the 21st century.

For, despite the fact that the entertainer has never topped the Billboard Hot 100, her solo singles and albums have sold more copies than any other lady lyricist in chart history and find their numbers elevated to even higher ground when the material she features on are factored into her sales question.

Today, she extends her run with help from her new single ‘Megatron.’

Arguably her most critically polarizing work since 2003’s ‘American Life,’ Queen of Pop Madonna‘s new album, ‘Madame X,’ was still able to mark a spot atop this week’s Billboard 200 (the 9th effort of her career to do so).

And, while none of the set’s official or buzz singles managed to break into the Billboard Hot 100, public interest in the LP has been buoyed by the tunes’ respective music videos – the latest being the controversial ‘God Control’ (click here to watch).

Fans curious to know about the inspiration behind ‘Control’ (a song that promotes gun law reform) and its co-tenants on ‘Madame X’ will be pleased to learn about the new documentary, ‘The World of Madame X.’  Set in Lisbon, Portugal – the city described as the Pop potentate’s muse for this project – Madonna walks viewers through the creation process of each song, showcases her collaborators, and tells the story of how each tune earned a spot on the final project.

It may have been over 5 years since Iggy Azalea dropped her debut studio album, ‘The New Classic,’ but from where we stand its long-awaited follow-up, ‘In My Defense,’ is proving itself worth the wait.

In addition to blazing singles ‘Sally Walker’ and ‘Started,’ the Rap diva recently sent fans into a frenzy with another taste from the July 19th-due set – the X-rated ‘Just Wanna’ (click here to listen).  While we await news on if that bedroom banger will get the video treatment, Iggy Iggz has confirmed her next visual will not only drop on the day of her album release but will also feature fellow femcee Kash Doll.

Titled ‘F*ck It Up,’ the duet’s accompanying music video is said to be just as glossy as its predecessors from this era and will pay homage to a cult classic film.  Details inside:
