From announcement to official launch, Quavo (of the chart-topping rap trio Migos) gave fans little time to prepare for the premiere of ‘Quavo Huncho,’ his official debut solo album.

Yet, despite its bevy of top-named co-stars (see:  Madonna, Drake, Cardi B, and more), the project was catapulted to chart battle on the backs of featureless singles ‘Workin Me,’ ‘Bubble Gum,’ and ‘Lamb Talk’…to little talk or buzz from rap lovers.

The absence of hype didn’t stop its chart triumph, however.  Officially debuting at #66 last week on a technicality, its first full tracking week has ended and sees it zoom to #1 on rap charts.  Unable to unseat Lady Gaga‘s ‘Star Is Born’ soundtrack from the top of the Billboard 200, ‘Quavo Huncho’ makes an impressive #2 debut on the overall album charts.

ABC hit ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ is back for a firework filled-fifth season.

The legal drama, which stars Emmy winner Viola Davis, follows a group of ambitious law students and their brilliant criminal defence professor.

Last season brought with it a countless list of shocking twists and the newest run is already delivering a whole lot more. Particularly with the addition of Rome Flynn.

It all makes for a riveting watch. And like millions, we’re all sorts of hooked!

Peep the preview of episode 5 / season 5 – titled ‘It’s The Worst Day Of My Life’ below…

Usher sprung a surprise on the masses last week with the release of brand new album ‘A.’

A joint effort with producer Zaytoven, the project – his first since 2016’s ‘Hard II Love’ – was billed as a homage of sorts to his hometown of Atlanta.

Uniquely, little additional context was provided for the album nor was there any above the line promotion.

How did this factor into first week performance? Find out below…

Not enough is made up of Ashanti‘s contributions to black music and Pop culture as a whole.

Filling a void left by those of her peers who soared in the 90s, the ‘Rain on Me‘ performer dominated the early 00s with a thread of hits which in many ways laid the foundation for a number of her more-celebrated contemporaries to launch their careers from.

Alas, in a world that is just as fickle as it is forgetful, Ashanti often finds herself shunned by the very industry and audiences she has given her art to.

Their latest slight?
