With his new song, ‘Christmas Morning,’ 3x GRAMMY-nominated superstar Trey Songz leads a list of Atlantic Records’ R&B acts ready to get fans in the holiday spirit.

Teaming with his longtime producer Troy Taylor, the yuletide-flavored tune is one of many lining Atlantic’s compilation project, ‘Still Home for the Holidays’ – a 13-track affair that also features the likes of Ty Dolla $ign, Sebastian Mikael, Ayanis, and more.

“You know I’m the real Saint Nick / You know I know what to do with all your gifts / You the only name on my list, the only thing I could wish for is, you / Pretty frame wrapped in silk / Love your cookies with the milk / Love this life that we build, oh yeah,” Songz sings on the smooth joint.

It’s pretty safe to say Ariana Grande is having the best week ever.

The GRAMMY winner, whose latest album ‘Positions’ came with barely two weeks notice, took no one by surprise when it topped the Billboard 200 – marking the fifth time she’s reigned over the tally in her short career.

Just as unsurprising, every track that lines Grande’s newest project made a grand entrance on the refreshed Hot 100 as she’s listed 14 times across the chart’s 100 positions (5 times in the top 40 alone).

Led by last week’s #1 hit, ‘Positions’ (the song), Ari is responsible for this week’s top debuts (her historic 18th top 10 as we reported here) and more.

Titled ‘Motive,’ the funky track – which houses elements of 90’s House & Disco – is one of many highly anticipated gems that lines Ari’s sixth studio album, ‘Positions’ (click here to stream it).

“I can call bulls–t out from a mile away (Don’t say) / You want me if you can’t keep coming back for me / Right out to carve you if you just can’t talk straight (Just say) / Say what you mean ’cause you may get it,” Grande coos on the sizzling cut.

Less than two years after dominating the Billboard charts with her fifth studio effort, ‘thank u, next,’ Pop diva Ariana Grande has already moved on to the next with its successor, ‘positions.’

A surprise of sorts as its arrival was just announced two weeks ago, the era that accompanies the 14-track project was kicked off by its title track (which is pacing for a historic #1 debut on the Billboard Hot 100 next week).
