Rising singer Lizzie Berchie continues to leave an indelible mark on the UK R&B scene with her newly released EP ‘Am I An Adult Yet?’

Arriving on the heels of critically acclaimed singles such as ‘Flaws & All’ and ‘We Found Love,’ the six-song set sees the songstress mount a journey of discovery through candid uncertainty and reflection. All of which she delivers with piercing lyrical potency and stirring vocal performances.

With ‘Am I An Adult Yet?,’ Berchie unlocks a fresh take on her experience of Black womanhood – skillfully and melodically laying bare many of its complex layers.

To celebrate the release of the project, Berchie will be taking center stage at London’s Omeara on October 22 for a headline show. [Click here for tickets]

The death of ‘Euphoria’ star Angus Cloud sent shockwaves across the newswire in July.

Aged just 25 years old, the rising actor was beloved by many and was deemed to have a bright future ahead of him.

During his life, Cloud’s struggles with substance abuse were well-documented and, following his death, his mother alluded to those struggles being the possible cause of his untimely death rather than suicide, as some reports had intimated.

Today (September 21), the result of Cloud’s toxicology report has confirmed those inclinations.

Tinashe is in a zen space.

So much so that she’s fine to extinguish her fiery feud with Chris Brown.

As reported, the oft-controversial performer poured fuel on the rift with ‘Nashe following remarks she made about their 2015 debut ‘Player’ during a recent interview.

Housed in a corner of the chat that saw the songbird dish on the lack of control she had in her earlier career, the segment was interpreted by some as Tinashe relaying regret for working with Brown.

Suffice it to say, C. Breezy didn’t take well to the comments and lambasted his former collaborator, asking fans to “name 5 Tinashe songs.”

Now, Tinashe – who recently released her new album ‘BB/ANG3L’ – unpacked her response.

Nearly 4 years separate Jason Derulo fans from his last body of work, the ‘2Sides (Side 1)‘ EP, but a consistent release of singles over 2023 suggests the wait for a new project may be coming to close.

Having unleashed ‘Slow Low,’ Body Count,’ ‘Glad U Came,’ ‘When Love Sucks,’ and more over just the last few months (as we reported here), Derulo continues the string of drops by revamping ‘Low’ with a special guest: Mexican singer-songwriter Yng Lvcas.

Putting a Latin spin on the uniquely tempoed cut, the tune comes shortly after Derulo delivered ‘Running (All the Things She Said)’ which interpolates part of the 2002 hit ‘All The Things She Said’ (performed by Russian duo t.A.T.u.).

‘I’m the Problem,’ the long-awaited final R&B album from chart-topping songstress K. Michelle, is set to stomp to digital shelves Friday (September 22).

Already brought to the masses courtesy of previously released songs ‘You,’ ‘Wherever the D May Land,’ ‘Blame Yourself,’ and the #1 R&B hit ‘Scooch,’ ‘Problem’ is delivering yet another bid to capture buyer attention with new song ‘Tennessee.’

“Well, I’m tired of these tears on my pillow / There’s gotta be a better life for me / So I’m drivin’ out to find my hero / I hope he’s back home in Tennessee,” she croons on the Country-inspired cut that tells the story of a woman leaving an abusive relationship to find a good Southern man.

Produced by Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony, the arrival of ‘Tennessee’ came just days before its official music video dropped Wednesday (September 20). See it inside.

Boasting multiple hits with Chris Brown over the years (see: ‘Stranger Things,’ ‘I Don’t Die,’ ‘Just Let Go,’ and others), rapper Joyner Lucas not only considers the R&B bad boy a prized collaborator but also a close friend.

For that reason he’s never been shy about defending the ‘Under the Influence‘ hitmaker against stark criticism – a stance he reiterated recently amid drama stemming from Tinashe taking to ‘The Zach Sang Show‘ to admit she was ‘embarrassed‘ by her duet with Brown (2015’s ‘Player‘).

The two singers clashed in the past about the LuLou-produced song, but reignited the aged beef after Breezy clapped back by suggesting T’s career was ‘nonexistent.’

When news of the virtual fisticuffs came across the desk of Lucas he quickly took to the net to address the “haters” on behalf of Brown.

Look inside to see what he said.
