The Queen Bee is back and her faithful #KillerBees are buzzing!

Just days after the announcement of ‘Wake Me Up,’ her highly anticipated collaboration with Remy Ma, rap royal Lil Kim stuns listeners with a stinging track of her own, ‘Took Us a Break.’

Taking to Twitter to unveil official news of the tune’s arrival, Kim referenced the song as “the warm up” (implying much more was on the way).  Also mentioning the 12-year hiatus she’s taken from releasing studio albums (see: 2005’s ‘The Naked Truth’), we could finally be on our way to having official new music from the celebrated femcee.

Is she starting on the right foot?  Listen to her latest inside and let us know:

Despite churning out a top 20 hit, ‘Gorgeous,’ and two top 10 smashes courtesy of her singles, ‘Ready For It,’ and its predecessor/chart-topper, ‘Look What You Made Do,’ things look a bit..well…off for Taylor Swift (relatively speaking of course).

For the last three eras the country turned pop diva has been no stranger to complete Hot 100 domination.  Yet, her latest offerings – though delivering some respectable numbers – have not been afforded the staying power their forerunners have.  To hopefully change the tide a week before their parent album, ‘Reputation,’ finds its way onto shelves, Swift and team are cranking out a buzz single to get fans talking.

Enter ‘Call It What You Want‘: the latest taste from the singer’s November 10-due album. Is it just what the doctor ordered to get this era commercially in line with the offerings of ‘Red,’ ‘1989,’ and more?  Listen inside and tell us:

Chris Brown is confused.

Sales forecast for the crooner’s latest album ‘Heartbreak On A Full Moon’ was revealed today and show that the 45-track set is on-course for a soft opening at retail.

As widely understood, the fact the set arrived on a Tuesday (Halloween) meant only three tracking days would be counted towards its debut on the Billboard 200.

Oddly, it seems C. Breezy didn’t get nor understand that memo.

Zayn has rediscovered his zeal for the spotlight. Case in point his dapper turn in the latest issue of Billboard magazine.

The former One Direction member set the world ablaze early last year with ‘Pillow Talk’ but quickly learned of the pitfalls of fame when admitted anxiety rendered him unable to perform live.

Together, the collective delivered a rousing rendition of the track.

This Halloween the Hip-Hop royal Remy Ma turned heads when she stepped out as the villain Cruella Deville.

One way to describe the response to her brilliant take on the character? Well-received.

Alas, what wasn’t well-received was the error she made on Instagram hours ago when she thanked a fan for impersonating her on the night.

The problem? Said fan wasn’t impersonating her at all and was merely dressed in her casual everyday clothing. Unfortunately, all hell broke loose when fans of Ma’s nemesis Nicki Minaj spotted the error.

What happened next?

Chris Brown is no stranger to breaking the rules, as such it was little surprise that he’s done exactly that with the release of new album ‘Heartbreak On A Full Moon.’

Beyond coming in a colossal 45-tracks and only being available digitally, the set arrived on Halloween – which this year fell on a Tuesday.

This means that it can only benefit from three tracking days on the chart.

For many, it auto begs the question: how are the numbers stacking up? Well, the predictions are in and tea is poured below…

Sam Smith is driving on full steam to the release of his long-awaited sophomore album ‘The Thrill Of It All.’

Due in stores worldwide tomorrow, the Brit-bred superstar is leaving no stone unturned in his promotional push for the project.

His latest stop was on ‘Carpool Karaoke’ with James Corden.

Perhaps one of the best instalments of the popular segment, Smith delivered heaps of personality as well as awesome renditions of songs such as ‘Too Good At Goodbyes’ and ‘I’m Not The Only One.’

He was hilariously joined by his favorite group Fifth Harmony for a joint showing of ‘Work From Home.’ 

All he fun awaits after the jump…
