Fans of ‘Best Friend’ co-stars Saweetie and Doja Cat originally had their calendars marked for the June 25 arrival of both femcees’ new albums – ‘Pretty B*tch Music’ and ‘Planet Her’ – respectively.

New reports reveal, however, those who have been impatiently waiting to tap, tap, tap in to the former’s serially delayed debut LP will have to watch the clock just a little while longer.

Hate her or love her, Saweetie – the self-proclaimed ‘Queen of Content’ – lives up to the title in more ways than one.

When not blazing the promo trail via Web and TV talk shows to support her singles, the rapstress is found playing covergirl to a number of digital and print magazines.

The latest to feature the ‘Best Friend’ beauty (born Diamonté Harper) on her promotional onslaught are ‘Complex’ and ‘Wonderland’ magazines – both of which quizzed the 27-year-old on her long-awaited debut album, long-term career goals, and so much more.

Look inside to see what she said and catch a glimpse of the fierce photo shoots that accompanied each feature.

Back to business after a highly publicized breakup with fiance Alex Rodriguez, ‘Medicine’ singer Jennifer Lopez had just the antidote for her fans (affectionately called #JLovers) in need of a live performance fix.

Taking to the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles recently (May 2), Lopez led a list of bill of music hitmakers who headlined the highly anticipated “Global Citizen VAX LIVE: The Concert to Reunite the World” –  a “global broadcast special that will celebrate hope and call on world leaders to step up for equitable distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine.”

After blazing the stadium stage, the 51-year-old singer took to Instagram to share some snaps from the concert and later to her official YouTube channel to show the behind-the-scenes action.

After blazing ‘Kimmel’ with performances of their latest singles over the last two weeks (as we reported here), fans of chart-topping singers Gwen Stefani and Jazmine Sullivan were given even more of a peek at their respective live sets via ‘Pandora Live: Powered by Women.’

Hosted by EMMY-winning anchor Hoda Kotb, the event came as the ultimate musical salute for Women’s History Month 2021 and also included special appearances from the likes of Becky G and Lauren Alaina.

In addition to rocking the house with her latest hit ‘Pick Up Your Feelings,’ Sullivan stunned with a dynamic delivery of her other ‘Heaux Tales’ tune ‘Girl Like Me’ as well as previous hit, ‘Let It Burn.’  Elsewhere during the show, Stefani sizzled with ‘Let Me Reintroduce Myself,’ ‘Hollaback Girl,’ and even rocked the house with the iconic No Doubt hit, ‘Don’t Speak.’

In or out of album promo cycle, Katy Perry is quite the busy bee as she reiterated on her pit stop to ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Monday night (February 8).

The GRAMMY nominee has pumped the brakes on the push behind her ill-fated fifth studio album, ‘Smile,’ and is now building awareness for the season 4 launch of ABC’s ‘American Idol’ (which resumes its search for America’s next undiscovered superstar on February 14).

When not dishing with Kimmel about ‘Idol,’ Perry – donning her signature black hair and a mosaic, form-fitting dress – discussed the joys of motherhood to 5-month-old daughter Daisy Bloom and even weighed in on The Weeknd‘s epic Super Bowl showing from Sunday (February 7).

Just last week (as we reported here), Travis Scott sent BTS fans into a frenzy when his new song – ‘Franchise’ (featuring Young Thug and M.I.A.) – debuted at #1 on the Hot 100 and blocked what many thought would be the 4th week reign of the boy band’s explosive hit, ‘Dynamite.’

Making history for accumulating three #1 debuts in less than a year, Scott saw ‘Franchise’ powered to the top on the wings of a number of single combo deals including cassette, CD, and digital versions (some of which were priced at $.69).

The strategic marketing method – employed by a number of artists that premiered atop the Hot 100 this year – is often only applied to their respective tunes’ inaugural week figures, thereby being the reason many of those out-of-the-box hits plummet down the tally in their second frame of sales reporting.

Landing at #25 on this week chart proves Scott’s latest smash is no exception.

While the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards, which aired live Sunday night (September 20), set a record for handing out the most golden statuettes to Black performers in the ceremony’s history (as we reported here), it will also be penciled in record books for another historic feat: poor ratings.

As reported by the staggering list of nominees, the Television Academy had already set a record with the 2020 EMMY Awards as the ceremony – its 72nd annual – nominated its most Black acts ever with over 34% of the nominations.

It should not come as no surprise then that the actual event, which aired Sunday (September 20), saw the most trophies handed out to Black performers – especially in major categories.
