Monica‘s been blazing the promo trail over the last week to ensure the reign of her latest #1 hit on the R&B charts is not short-lived.

Capturing the position with current single, ‘Commitment’ (from her forthcoming LP ‘Chapter 38’), the 38-year-old diva has hit radio, Web, and television in support of the tune.  Her latest stop came courtesy of a visit to ‘Good Morning America’ this morning where she not only gave fans a stirring live rendition of the cut, but was also presented a plaque for amassing a whopping 2 billion listens on Pandora!

Rarely do spin-off’s and sequels best the original. However ‘Love & Hip-Hop‘s Hollywood arm is re-writing all of the rules.

Royally ratchet, the addictive series is making a serious beeline for the top-spot with its sizzling storylines.

‘Love & Hip-Hop’ veteran K. Michelle continues her Hollywood integration and, as you’ll see below, is still stirring the pot. Also back in the mix are Lyrica Anderson and A1, who despite the arrival of their first child are still going through it.

Per the newly unleashed trailer, B2K‘s Lil Fizz and J Boog spotlight the group’s reunion, Rap veteran Yo-Yo is on-board, as well as a slew of newcomers.

Shame and disgrace befell Michael Darby of ‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’ when a cameraman working on the series accused him of groping his behind without his permission.

His wife, Ashley Darby, worked tirelessly to convince viewers that the allegation was untrue and hoped the fact that her husband wasn’t jailed for the alleged crime would silence talk that he is of the predatory persuasion.

Today, her efforts have been shattered by the release of footage lifted from the very camera Michael’s alleged victim was holding when he was attacked.

On it the horrified cameraman can be heard reprimanding the businessman for touching him.

Damning, as Michael- who claimed the incident never happened when the story first broke- incriminates himself by apologising.

No means no! You heard the camera man say, “Don’t do that!” 2-3 times. Stop making excuses for Michael Darby. @BravoTV @Andy @RHOP_ @_AshleyDarby should be ashamed if Michael returns next season. So because a man was violated, Michael gets a pass? Wrong. Period. #RHOP

It’s been six months since Soca star Machel Montano & R&B diva Ashanti first introduced their Island-kissed hit, ‘The Road,’ to the masses, but now the duo are hoping to kiss the top of charts with the cut by introducing its long-awaited accompanying music video.

Having already topped iTunes charts across the globe upon its January release, ‘The Road’ – co-written by Ashanti, Montano, Jovan James and producer Travis World – took the duo on the road to Trinidad to film to shoot the clip.

“We made a conscious decision that we would shoot the video during the days of carnival at places that we would be, so the cameras just captured what was happening around us,” Machel explained. “You will see the colors, the cultural expression, the celebrations, and the diverse people involved in these activities and it looks like pure joy, unity, togetherness.”

Tapping the Toronto based Director X to lens the visual, look inside to see the magic Ashanti and Montano created:

16 minutes was all Lizzo (born Melissa Jefferson) needed to drop jaws during her debut performance on NPR’s ‘Tiny Desk’ concert series.

As fans continue to boast and bump the new video for the bop that is ‘Tempo’ (click here to see), Jefferson’s moved on up to NPR to highlight other tracks from her major label debut, ‘Cuz I Love You.’

The 31-year-old’s been on a grueling promo schedule – one that’s seen her touch award shows, radio, TV, and more in support of the effort.  The visit to NPR comes as no departure as she’s currently in the middle of rehearsals for the next leg of her ‘Cuz I Love You’ Stateside tour (click here to see dates).

In case you’re on the fence about why you should see her in concert, we’re sure the performance below will go ahead and push you toward Ticketmaster.  Look inside to see what we mean:
