A$AP Rocky may be storming the stream scene with his new album ‘Don’t Be Dumb,’ but he’s smartly not resting on his laurels.

Instead, the rapper took center stage on Saturday Night Live as the episode’s musical guest.

And he did not disappoint.

The MC rocked SNL with a multitude of tracks from the project, including ‘Helicopter,’ ‘Punk Rocky,’ and the LP’s title track.

‘Don’t Be Dumb’ serves as the star’s first studio album since 2018’s ‘Testing.’

With the streams streaming and the buzz buzzing, it’s seemingly A$AP season.

Dolly Parton may not turn 80-years-old until Monday (January 19), but the timeless music diva is kicking the celebration off early and bringing along some A-list friends to help.

Nearly 50 years after watching her 1977 hit ‘Light of a Clear Blue Morning’ light up U.S. Country charts, Parton is poised to repeat the feat with the inspirational tune’s updated version featuring Lainey Wilson, Reba McEntire, Queen Latifah, and Miley Cyrus.

“I wrote ‘Light of a Clear Blue Morning’ during a season when I was searching for hope, and fifty years later that message still feels just as true,” Parton said in a statement about the song. “As I celebrate my 80th birthday, this new version is my way of using what I’ve been blessed with to shine a little light forward, especially by sharing it with some truly incredible women.”

Released Friday (January 16), proceeds from the song and its official music video will benefit the pediatric cancer research program at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt in Nashville.

Iyanla Vanzant is back like she never left!

Nearly five years after ending her critically acclaimed OWN series ‘Iyanla: Fix My Life,’ the renowned spiritual coach and best-selling author is gearing up to bring her hard-hitting brand of therapy back to the network courtesy of the new series ‘The Inside Fix.’

“’Inside Fix’ is a deepening. Where ‘Fix My Life’ invited us to confront the pain that shaped us, ‘Inside Fix’ invites us to meet the truths that can free us,” said Vanzant in a statement about the forthcoming series. “In a time when the world feels increasingly disconnected, we need to return to what matters – truth, empathy, and self-awareness. Real healing isn’t about repairing what’s broken, but about reconnecting with our sense of self, our identity, our worth, and our ability to start fresh.” 

Ahead of the show’s premiere on January 17 at 8p/7p CST, look inside for the official trailer.
