Ebro Darden‘s Hot 97 recently caught up with the seasoned star Samuel L. Jackson recently to engage what we’re calling a must-see conversation.

In it, the actor delved deep into a number of scorching hot topics surrounding the entertainment industry which may, or may not, offend proponents of Hollywood’s welcoming of Black British stars.

Days after learning he entered history books for nabbing two consecutive chart-toppers in successive weeks on the Billboard 200, ‘HNDRXX’ hitmaker Future has unveiled yet another music video in support of the project.

Titled ‘Use Me,’ the cinematic clip sees the rapper travel in time to meet his younger self.  Reflecting on the issues of his youth – addressing everything from poverty to drugs and everything between – the piece makes not only makes for a compelling watch, but a welcomed departure from his visual standard fare (see: booty shaking heauxs, materialism, etc.).

With photographer/directors Luigi & Lango in tow, Queen of Pop Madonna teamed with ‘Vogue Germany’ for ‘Her-Story’: a short film in celebration of ‘International Women’s Day.’

A self-proclaimed ‘revolution of love’ and ‘refusal to accept this new age of tyranny,’ a suspected dig at President Donald Trump, the glossy black-and-white affair see the controversial hitmaker reference everything from Nazi Germany to her usual stomping ground – religion.

Coming as one of many female artists lifting a nod to the day (including Kylie Minogue, Beyonce, Alicia Keys, and many more), tuck in below for your first peek at the film:

In the wake of advances from the likes of Chainsmoker‘s ‘Something Just Like This,’ Bruno Mars’That’s What I Like,’ Rihanna‘s ‘Love on the Brain,’ and even impressive staying power by former #1 ‘Bad & Boujee’ by Migos, singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran‘s ‘Shape of You’ has managed to pencil its name atop the Hot 100 yet again.

Thanks to some handsome digital sales, undoubtedly boosted by a whirlwind promotional schedule that’s seen him hit the Grammys, ‘SNL,’ ‘iHeart Radio Music Awards,’ Brit Awards, and the American talk show circuit in less than three weeks, Sheeran’s ‘Shape’ signs on to the tally’s perch for a sixth non-consecutive week.  And, as we reported here, the set’s highly anticipated parent album – ‘Divide’– is set to follow suit with a rule over next week’s Billboard 200 (click here to read more about that).

Interestingly, though hitting many of the same outlets and award shows to promote her latest number, ‘Chained to the Rhythm,’ pop star Katy Perry‘s most recent Hot 100 run is not singing a similar tune.  Even with its notable #4 premiere on the tally two weeks ago (to some of her lowest recent debut figures), Perry’s Sia-penned socially conscious hit has been on the decline despite the release of its supporting visual.

Falling out of the top 10 in just its third week, tuck in below to see who joins Sheeran and the ‘Roar’ singer on this week’s updated Chart Check:

But it appears there’s been a rupture in the friendship.

One thing to be said about the millions which make up Nicki Minaj’s fan base? They’re fiercely loyal.

Built over the period of ten years, the rapper’s core group of supporters stand as one of Pop’s more formidable clans, carrying her discography (singles and albums included) well over the 20 million units sold mark…without streams.
