Hamzaa is heating up!

Despite her humble age of 19, the soul-filled Londoner has been hailed for having a voice, sound, and conviction well beyond her years.

In an era where processed “singers” are most pervasive, Hamzaa cuts through the clutter with her colossal talent and broad sonic palette.

Having recently guested on New Machine’s critically acclaimed release ‘Chance,’ the songbird paints her first solo offering with debut single ‘Stranded Love.’

Take a listen to the lovelorn number, which potently pierces, below…

While ‘Reputation’ has not proven itself quite the accelerated seller its previous offerings were, the chart and sales stats associated with Taylor Swift‘s latest opus are certainly nothing to shake a stick at.

The effort – kicked off by the chart-topping ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ – launched three follow-up singles to the Hot 100’s top 20 (“…Ready for It?” with a No. 4 peak, “Gorgeous” with a No. 13 peak, and the Ed Sheeran & Future-assisted “End Game” to a No. 18 peak).  Now, with the ascension of the Max Martin-produced ‘Delicate,’ a slow burner, to the top 20 this week (as we first reported here), she’s now added a fourth.

Christina Aguilera‘s latest album, the long-awaited ‘Liberation,’ may have been met with critical acclaim galore, but – to date – that fanfare has not been mirrored commercially.  Debuting at a respectable top 10 position on the Billboard 200, this week saw the ‘Accelerate’-led project accelerate down the charts at the pace of a whopping 92-spot drop.

And, while the songstress is undoubtedly hoping the set (her first studio album to hit the charts without a top 40 single preceding it) picks up steam after she hits the road in its support (click here for dates), she’s here to remind fans that she is past the point of ‘chasing charts.’  Taking to the LA Times to dish on how her artistry has taken precedence over commercial acclaim, her statements came just days before rumors began swirling her label home, RCA, had dropped the Grammy winner after a string of failed projects.

Now, reps from Aguilera’s camp are looking to silence that claim.   Details inside:

Iggy Azalea is wasting no time pairing her tantalising new single ‘Kream’ with an accompanying video.

Moments ago, the Aussie bred beauty debuted the visual for the Tyga assisted track – which debuted today and was produced by Mike WILL Made-it.

True to the song’s lyrics, the femcee made sure to dip it, pop it, twerk it, and drop it. There are also a number of closer than close scenes of the rapstress and her guest.

There’s no doubt about it…Edward Enninful‘s run at ‘ British Vogue’ has been spectacular.

Backed by Naomi Campbell, the Ghanaian creative stands as the publication’s editor-in-chief and is using his power to celebrate art once shunned or ignored by his predecessors.

Getting in on the progressive action? Oprah Winfrey, who stormed its pages with a cover and spread you can enjoy here.

Accompanying the spread? The conversation waiting below.

What they discussed? Her legacy, what happened when she googled herself and why is she frustrated with the youth of today.

Mariah Carey is back and sounding better than she has in a long while!

The superstar chanteuse kicked off her eagerly anticipated Las Vegas show ‘The Butterfly Returns’ last night at The Colosseum, Caesars Palace and was in fine form.

A musical and visual extravaganza, the residency serves as Mimi’s second on the iconic Strip following a two-year run with ‘#1 To Infinity’ at Caesars Palace.

This series is perhaps most notable for being her first live show since parting ways with her former management regime, signing with Roc Nation, and battling back to better health – mentally, physically, and vocally.

Based on pics and clips from the evening, attendees are in for a treat from the singer, who belted out classics such as ‘We Belong Together’ and ‘Emotions,’ as well as fan-favorites like 91’s ‘Can’t Let Go.’

What are you waiting for? Check out the new-new from Mariah after the jump…

Azealia Banks has finally unwrapped her new single ‘Treasure Island.’

Teased in earnest, the track is the latest to be lifted from her upcoming project ‘Fantasea II: The Second Wave’ – which is touted as being “due soon.”

The set serves as the sequel to her premiere mixtape ‘Fantasea’ and will also stand as her first album release for indie imprint eOne.

A buoyantly bouncy jam, the track uniquely arrives on YouTube ahead of its roll-out on streaming platforms next week.

In fierce fiery form, Banks makes clear that she is the treasure island:

“Hips roll slow like the waves on the low tide
The shoreline, you’re all mine
Ugh, n*gga I done gave you the co-sign
The pussy so good n*ggas call it a gold mine
The coin shine is something I might like
The sea queen gave you an invite.”
