King Kendrick Lamar has been keeping his cards close to his chest as relates to his hotly anticipated new album.

But moments ago, the Hip-Hop titan officially unveiled the name and tracklist for the follow-up to last year’s ‘untitled.’

This set, which hits stores this Friday (April 14th), has been christened ‘DAMN.’

K. Dot has kept the feature list short on this outing, but still brings the star-power with guest spots from both Rihanna and U2.

Sisterhood.

It’s a trait Fifth Harmony have put to the forefront increasingly in recent months.

Indeed, since going through quite a public member shuffle, the ladies are keen to show their Harmonizers that they are more united than ever.

And last night they did exactly that.

With member Normani Kordei currently competing on ABC‘s ‘Dancing With The Stars,’ fellow 5H songbirds Dinah, Lauren, and Ally, rallied around to perform ‘Impossible’ during her Rumba with Val Chmerkovskiy.

The group (including Normani) jetted in from their ‘7/27 Tour’ in Manilla, but didn’t miss a note or step.

Good stuff!

Jennifer Hudson has lifted the lid on the video for new single ‘Remember Me.’

The rousing track is the first taste of the diva’s debut project for new label Epic Records.

Lensed in London, where J.Hud was based for several months filming ‘The Voice UK’ (which she eventually won), the moody visual mirrors the song’s subject matter and finds the singer reminiscing on a love lost.

Can she reignite the flame? Watch below to find out…

Simple, slick, and stylized, a solid video for a solid song.

With ‘The Voice’ now wrapped, it’ll be great to see J.Hud mount an aggressive promo push for the song. It has potential.

How its fans has received this news?

Poorly, and they’ve taken to Twitter to lambast the unconfirmed report with hopes it will see the altruistic attorney retain her position.

Pop icon Mariah Carey has proven once again it’s nothing for her to shake it off – “it,” in this case, being rumors that she and label home, Epic Records, were imminently due to part ways due to the nonperformance of her latest efforts (see:  ‘I Don’t,’ etc.).

Taking to press today, Epic Records not only made the shocking announcement of “recommitting” to Carey’s contract, but also added fans can expect a new album from the diva THIS YEAR!
