Tori Kelly is back and in full effect!

With nearly four years separating her dedicated fans from her last traditional album, 2019’s ‘Inspired by True Events,’ Kelly was inspired to take her next era back to her roots sonically and visually.

Kicked off by the new song ‘Missin U,’ the Tenroc, Jon Bellion, and The Diner-produced cut marks her re-entry to the world of traditional R&B on the sonic front while her aesthetic boasts an embrace of her natural locks.

“With this next chapter and era of my career, it felt right to change things up. After ten years of being blonde, I wanted to go back to my natural hair color. In a lot of ways, this is me going back to my roots…I’m looking forward to having fun with my overall look and expressing myself through this new sound that I’m really proud of,” she recently told PEOPLE,

March 17 may be Tamar Braxton‘s birthday, but it looks like she’s the one handing out gifts.

After ample teasing over the last year, the youngest of the Braxton clan has finally lifted the lid on new music – her first official release since cuts found aboard 2017’s ‘Bluebird of Happiness’ album (excluding features, soundtrack, and specialty offerings).

Titled ‘Changed,’ the tune – which incorporates elements of SWV‘s classic ‘Rain‘ – tells the tale of a love gone all sorts of wrong.

“I thought you were the man of my dreams / So how the hell was I wrong? / I gave you all of me, oh / Boy it coulda been you / I thought you were the guy of my dreams,” Braxton croons the Donald “Hazel” Sales-produced cut.

A fitting tie-in to the GRAMMY-nominated diva’s current reality show venture ‘Queens Court’ (which she recently spoke to That Grape Juice about in a sizzling exclusive), hop inside to hear ‘Changed’ in full.

‘SWV & Xscape: The Queens of R&B’ has had social media timelines in a tizzy thanks to its drama straight out of the gate.

The Bravo series spotlights the iconic groups as they prepare for an epic joint show comprised of their biggest hits.

Prior to now, the lion’s share of the friction aired has been between Xscape members/sisters LaTocha and Tamika Scott.

However, in the run-up to taking to the stage, tensions rise between both SWV and Xscape.

And the unease centers on who will headline their collaborative show. In a fresh preview, Kandi advocates for her collective, while the Taj is especially vocal about opposing.

After soaring to #1 on the Hot 100 with the Rick James-sampling ‘Super Freaky Girl,’ Rap Queen Nicki Minaj looks poised to repeat the feat thanks to another sample-buoyed bop: ‘Red Ruby Da Sleeze.’

The March 3-released cut, which famously features elements of Lumidee‘s early 2000’s hit ‘Never Leave You (Uh Oh),’ earned praise from the Rap diva’s fans for housing a gritty performance akin to what was found on her early mixtapes.

“Who the f**k told bitches they was me now? / I knew these bitches was slow, I ain’t know these bitches senile / Married a shooter case you ni**as tried to breathe loud,” she spit on the Go Grizzly & Cheeze Beatz-produced track.

Jetting to the top of real-time iTunes sales tallies shortly after its unveiling, the tune’s weeklong domination of digital hitlists not only led it to be the week’s top female Hot 100 debut (among all genres) but ‘Ruby’ also shines with Hip-Hop’s biggest opening of the year so far.
