Cardi B continues to rack up the accolades.

That Grape Juice was in the house at the 2019 ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Awards in Los Angeles and witnessed the femcee take home the evening’s top honor – Songwriter Of The Year. 

Beyond serving as a career highlight for the star, it’s saw her make history because she has become the first female rapper to win the coveted honor – which is decided upon by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.

Elsewhere on the night (which salutes the top Rap, R&B, and Gospel Songs), T.I. took home the first Voice Of The Culture honor, while Motown was bestowed with the Heritage Award.

The budding mogul took a brief break from her many hustles to make a special appearance on ‘Late Night With Seth Meyers.’

UK rap royal Stormzy may have just scored a #1 with comeback jam ‘Vossi Bop,’ but he’s wasting no time following up.

Moments ago, the Glastonbury bound MC unleashed new single ‘Crown.’

Produced by Jimmy Napes and MJ Cole (who co-penned the cut with Stormzy), the track finds the versatile star in a reflective space.

Speaking on ‘Crown,’ he said:

“Where words fail, music speaks. I’ve been struggling to find words to describe how much this song means to me… struggling to explain exactly why I felt the needed to say what I’ve said on the record… and can’t quite summarise the journey of emotions the song takes me on when I listen back to it. I’m very proud of myself for making this song and I can’t wait for you all to hear it. Nothing but love and respect for my brother Jimmy Napes a world class phenomenal talent and MJ Cole the genius and legend – an honour and a pleasure to work with you both my brothers. We’ve created something very special and close to my heart.”

The song was unveiled via a live performance video, which was directed by Charlie Sarsfield.

4 years after joining forces on the Billboard Hot 100 top 20 hit, ‘I Know What You Did Last Summer,’ Pop singers Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes reunite to heat up this summer with their new single, ‘Senorita.’

The steamy visual, which has been teased aplenty in the days ahead of its release, sees the former Fifth Harmony star flex her acting muscle as she is a waitress in the music video who locks eyes in a diner with Mendes.

“I love it when you call me señorita,” Cabello coos in the clip. “I wish I could pretend I didn’t need you, but every touch is ooh la, la, la,” they sing together.

From there, the two burst into a sexy dance number all across the Latin-flavored, mid-tempo number.  Watch it inside:

Lil Nas X may be showing no signs of loosening his grip atop the Hot 100 with his Billy Ray Cyrus-hit, ‘Old Town Road,’ but it appears the 20-year-old is ready to ride his next hit to the top of charts.  As such, just hours ahead of the unveiling of his 7-song, debut EP (aptly titled ‘7’), the Georgia native unveiled the futuristic visual for the set’s new single, ‘Panini.’

Boasting an ode to rock gods Nirvana and their ‘Nevermind’ album track, ‘In Bloom,’ ‘Panini’ comes as one of many gems that line X’s new project.  The long-awaited project also features Cardi B and OneRepublic star Ryan Tedder.
