Is the #MuteRKelly campaign 30 years too late?  There’s one person who definitely thinks so;  R. Kelly.

The R&B legend is seen in a recently surfaced video addressing the ongoing campaign – supported by fellow celebrities, industry insiders, and music lovers alike –  calling for the removal of his music from popular streaming platforms.  Weeks after the hashtag first began making its rounds, Spotify, Pandora, and Apple Music all answered the call in favor of his detractors (click here to read more).

Unsurprisingly, his supporters struck back by helping boost his streaming numbers on the platforms who continue to play his music. With all the hoop-la continuing, the ill-timed video suggested that Kelly directed his ‘too late’ comments to his most recent accusers.  His team says he was referring to the music platforms who have abandoned him.

Will the third time be the charm for Z2 – the sophomore effort of pop crooner Zayn?

The bid for a chart-topping single saw his soaring, Sia-assisted ballad, ‘Dusk Till Dawn,’ peak in the UK chart’s top 5 while its follow-up, ‘Let Me,’ peaked at #20.  Neither fared nearly as well on US charts.

Now, conceptually picking up where ‘Dawn’ left off, the former ‘One Direction’ star has unveiled ‘Entertainer.’ A Drake-inspired breakup anthem, the 25-year-old unveils a not-so-family friendly music video (see: strippers) to assist the cut’s climb up charts.  Will it do the trick?

The #BardiGang undoubtedly rejoiced at news Cardi B was set to drop not one, but two music videos this month (click here to read more) to keep the momentum of her chart-topping debut album, ‘Invasion of Privacy,’ continuing its invasion of the Billboard 200’s top 10.

Now, just two days after dropping the long-awaited visual to ‘Be Careful’ (co-starring Keith Carlos), the hit rapper’s unveiled a sneak peek at the forthcoming accompanying video to ‘I Like It.’  The tune, which features J. Balvin and Bad Bunny, has already proven itself a fan favorite ahead of the forthcoming clip as evidenced by its top 10 debut.

Will a video help it surpass its #8 peak on the Hot 100?  Take a look at a preview and let us know what you think:
