As evidenced by the rant of ‘Believe’ beau Justin Bieber‘s manager, it’s pretty safe to say that some camps are still up-in-arms about the 2013 Grammy nominations unveiled last night.
Indeed, every year sees some scorned team or artist supporter feel “cheated” due to an absence from the nominations tally (see: Jill Scott’s rant last year), but this year marks a noted difference in that A) the male domination of categories, B) the absence of hip-hop and R&B from major categories, and C) the glaring, 2011-instated removal of “gender-specific” categories.
With only acts who released material from September 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012 eligible for consideration, the wealth of overlooked talent is earning a collective side-eye from many-a-music lover. Just ask fans of Brandy & Monica‘s ‘It All Belongs To Me’, Mary J. Blige, Lana Del Rey, Madonna, and, of course, Nicki Minaj & Justin Bieber…

The Mariah Carey PR machine shows no signs of stopping in the wake of her American Idol clash with Nicki Minaj this week.
Armed with her husband Nick Cannon and their adorable twins Monroe and Moroccan, the premium diva took the air in a ride on the Santa Monica pier in California yesterday. The 42 year old and her troop then posed for pics that would melt even the hardest of hearts.
We’ve said it before and will continue to echo the same; never underestimate the know-how of an industry veteran like Mariah. She hasn’t sustained this long on the merit of her (incredible) voice alone. Calculated photo opps like this ensure she’s painted as the victim, while Nicki continues the ratchetness on Twitter. Viewed this way, who’s really “winning”?
With Nicki Minaj presently “spilling the tea” about her American Idol altercation with Mariah Carey (her words, not ours), the latter has broken her silence too.
Phoning good friend Barbara Walters, the legendary singer shared her version of events – which were relayed by the anchor on The View this morning.
The shocking details and video below…
In the space of four short years, Lady GaGa has become one of the world’s greatest live acts.
Breaking many a record with 2010’s ‘Monster Ball’, the ‘Fame’ star is gearing up to one up herself with 2012’s ‘Born This Way Ball’, selling out the enormous Twickenham Stadium in record time.

Get into ‘Hustle Gang‘, the latest jam by Rap newbie Iggy Azalea.
Featuring T.I and Brit MC Chip (formerly known as Chipmunk), the cut features on the XXL 2012 Freshman Mix Tape, coming hours after the Hip Hop has been Eve labelled the Rapstress inauthentic.

Despite the obvious and ever present set backs they face, Chris Brown can always count on support from his fan base, ‘Team Breezy‘.
Backing his music by way of ‘capital’ and their online presence, they- unlike a certain Rihanna Navy- are just as supportive with their mouths as they are with their money.
Case in point? Despite the fact that he has not stepped foot in the country, his British fans have secured him a #1 single with the dance hit ‘Turn Up The Music‘.

Pop icon Madonna is making moves on a massive media blitz this week that will be topped off Sunday with her highly anticipated Superbowl performance. Dropping by ‘The Tonight Show’ with Jay Leno tonight as well as premiering the visual for her M.I.A./Nicki Minaj-assisted single ‘Give Me All Your Luvin’ on this week’s American Idol, it’s safe to say Madge is definitely preparing to dominate the tube.
Already getting fans of Lady Gaga and Janet Jackson buzzing with her stinging remarks about them, Madonna is switching gears to her forthcoming, March due ‘M.D.N.A.’. Now, in a bid to build even more anticipation for her Superbowl showing, the ‘Take A Bow’ singer has taken to CNN’s Anderson Cooper to give fans the lowdown before the touchdowns.
Peek the preview after the jump:
When not digging her claws into rivals, Madonna is one of Pop’s most iconic forces. A status she’s hoping to further cement with new single ‘Give Me All Your Luvin”.
And while much of what’s known about the release has been surmised from close sources, the singer’s new label Interscope have lifted the lid on the single’s cover, release date, and video!

They urged fans to ‘Let It Go’ on their 2007 collaboration, but singer Keyshia Cole and Lil Kim are doing no such thing. Indeed, the pair have been duelling on Twitter today – stirring up much fanfare.
Following Cole’s seemingly random dig at the pint sized rapper this morning, Kim has taken a break from recording her next Pay Pal chart topper to respond.
Find out what she had to say after the jump…
