Rihanna, one of music history’s brightest stars, remains the pride of her island home Barbados. Now, to remind her, the Bajan island country is set to honor the Grammy-winner in a big way.

The disclaimer above, much like that found in his idol, Michael Jackson‘s, iconic ‘Thriller’ video, introduces the video for Chris Brown‘s NSFW video for ‘High End.’
Directed by Brown himself (with help from Spiff TV), the star-studded visual features cameos from Trey Songz, Teyana Taylor, Fabolous, and, of course, the song’s co-stars Future and Young Thug.

Unlike sister Tina Campbell (who recently braved a backlash for her open support of President Donald Trump), ‘Mary Mary’ star Erica Campbell is not exactly a fan of “The Donald.”
Yet, while she is not in favor of Trump and his widely reported antics, that has not impacted her coming to the defense of younger sister, Tina. Taking to her radio show, ‘Get Up! Mornings with Erica Campbell,’ the ‘Help’ hitmaker said:
“I appreciate my sister’s [Tina’s] boldness. This is America.” “We should be free to say what we want, and not be vilified or bashed.”
Erica made sure to remind listeners she does not share her sister’s stance:
Colin Kaepernick has had enough and is taking his latest battle to the courtroom.
The sports star has risen to global prominence after protesting the unjust killings of Black people in the US by kneeling for the National Anthem during NFL games.
Naturally, his actions attracted much attention – not all of which has been positive.
Indeed, he’s been relegated to free agent status; and with no teams publicly making a beeline to snap him up, his future on the field looks uncertain.
Believing the situation to be no coincident, he has filed suit.

We’re back this week with yet another underrated gem. Today’s From The Vault pick is Ciara’s ‘Can’t Leave ‘Em Alone’ featuring former flame 50 Cent.
An ode to the “dope boys,” ‘Alone’ is an 80’s flavored R&B-Pop track which was released as the third single from CiCi’s sophomore set, ‘The Evolution.’
It was helmed by producer-extraordinaire Darkchild and boasted a guest verse from a still scorching Fiddy.
Sadly, the song didn’t perform as well as the album’s first two singles ‘Promise’ and ‘Like A Boy.’ Instead, it barely reached the US Top 40 – though it still went Gold. An international push did not take place.
Released just in time for Summer 2007, the colorful and sun-soaked video saw Ciara strut the streets of ATL in hyper hot pants before joining bae for a romantic dinner on a rooftop.
Of course the video also featured “those” shots of Miss Harris and 50 cuddled up and topless – which did nothing to dispel the rumors (at the time) about the pair dating.
The Fat Cats-directed vid went to #1 on BET’s 106 & Park.
**********
We’re sure we’re not the only ones who deemed the song a winner on first listen. It’s still puzzling how it wasn’t received with open arms by critics and the record buying public, as we feel it a solid example of what a Pop/Urban Ciara sounds like at her best.
In any case, ahead of the arrival of Ci’s new material, let us know…

The news cycle may move fast, but Jennifer Lopez hasn’t forgotten about the disaster relief effort in Puerto Rico.
As widely reported, the region was hit hard by a series of hurricanes and needs all the help possible to rebuild.
Together with boyfriend Alex Rodriguez and ex husband Marc Anthony, J.Lo staged the fundraiser show ‘One Voice: Somos Live!’
Simulcast on Telemundo, MTV, and BET, the special saw La Lopez rock the stage. Also on-hand to perform were Bruno Mars, Mary J. Blige, and Gwen Stefani.

Ashanti is gearing up for her return to the charts.
As reported, the R&B star has enlisted Ty Dolla $ign for new single ‘Say Less.’ And with the track set for release imminently, the former first lady of Murder INC is revving up the hype machine.
This weekend, she held a pre-release party and played the track.
Check out the snippet below…
Kelela‘s steady ascend hit a major milestone last week with the release of her debut album ‘Take Me Apart.’
The Ethiopian American talent has been receiving praise from all corners for her magnetic brand of soulful R&B – a sound she showcases in earnest on the LP.
Now hitting the live TV circuit, she stopped by the BBC’s ‘Later…With Jools Holland’ this week to perform fan favorite ‘LMK (Let Me Know)’.
Find out what the buzz is about below…
She may have forgotten a line or two during her live set, but trust us that did not take away one bit from P!nk‘s epic vocal showings on ‘SNL’ last night (October 14).
On hand to deliver live renditions of tunes found aboard her new, soon-to-be-#1 album, ‘Beautiful Trauma,’ the songstress gave fans a taste of what they can expect on her 40-city world tour in support of project (which kicks off in Phoenix in March 1, 2018).
If what she did last night is any indication, we’re ready to be served!! See it inside:
Chris Brown is taking the colossal approach with new album ‘Heartbreak On A Full Moon.’
The 28-year-old’s LP will arrive on October 31st with a whopping 45 tracks. Yes, forty-five!
A double-disc set, the project won’t see the singer riding solo for the entire outing. Instead, he’s bringing along a number of notable names for the elongated ride.
Joining C. Breezy are the likes of R. Kelly and Jhene Aiko (on the track ‘Juicy Booty’), as well as Usher, Ty Dolla $ign, Future, Lil Yatchy, DeJ Loaf, and more.
Peep the full tracklist below…
Alexandra Burke is amazing on the mic and is proving equally as arresting on the dance-floor.
The Brit-belter, who rose to fame as the winner of The X Factor after performing with Beyonce, is currently competing on the current series of the BBC’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing.’
Much like the US’ ‘Dancing With The Stars,’ the series sees celebrities battle it out each week in a quest for the coveted ballroom trophy.
Oft commanding an audience of 10 million + each week, the show is renown for being a potent promotional platform and the real “win” tends to be for competitors careers.
With Alex readying new material, it’s smart timing. Especially as she’s slaying!
Watch her week 4 performance of the Jive with partner Gorka Marquez. Their song was Tina Turner’s ‘Proud Mary.’
Yesterday saw Pink unleash her seventh studio album ‘Beautiful Trauma.’
And with a full day’s worth of sales tallied, it’s become clear that the project’s opening numbers will be far from traumatic.
