‘Scandal’ is back for its 7th and final season.

Over the years, the Kerry Washington led show has boasted some of the most dramatic twists and turns in TV history and its swan song promises even more.

Forming a central part of the revived TGIT (Thank God It’s Thursday) block of programming, the political drama looks set to go out with a bang. A consolation, no doubt, for fans sad to see the show go.

Tank, Trey Songz, & Ty Dolla $ign work overtime at the body shop for the video to their joint R&B hit, ‘When We.’

Having already hoisted the song to #79 by his lonesome with the biggest streaming figures of his career, the assistance of this clip (already earning thumbs up from critics) could help Tank earn his first top 50 placement on the Billboard Hot 100 since 2007’s ‘Please Don’t Go.’
