Queen of Hip Hop Soul Mary J. Blige may have already decreed that there shalt be no hateration or holleration in the dancery, but a certain attendee at the Nashville stop of the singer’s critically acclaimed, joint headlining ‘Royalty’ tour with Nas was served a royal reminder last night (July 18).

Anyone who has ever been to a Blige show knows it’s not uncommon for the Grammy winner to wield words of encouragement to concertgoers as she tells the stories behind the making of some of her biggest hits or shares about ongoing dramas in her life.  This time, however, her fiery speech ended with a expletive-laden clap back to an audience member (or members) who may have wanted her to just stick to singing.

5 years have separated fans of Iggy Azalea from the rapper’s debut LP, ‘The New Classic.’

Originally scheduled for a 2016 launch, the Grammy nominee’s sophomore effort – then-christened ‘Digital Distortion’ – was serially delayed after public response to the title’s first couple of singles paled in comparison to those from its 2014 predecessor’s.  Once label drama entered into play, Azalea parted ways with Def Jam and offered fans 2018’s ‘Survive the Summer’ EP as a means to tide them over until her official sophomore album was done baking.

Enter 2019, the saucy Aussie hopped back on the scene with the ferocious bangers ‘Sally Walker,’ ‘Started,’ ‘I Just Wanna,’ and more fresh out the oven – all found on her newly christened second opus, ‘In My Defense.’  With critical acclaim aplenty surrounding all of the singles from the set today, will the album – now available in full – prove itself worth the wait?
