‘Up‘ hitmaker Cardi B is getting a leg up on the competition by unveiling her highly anticipated NYX Professional Makeup commercial a day ahead of the big game on Sunday (February 11).

The third Super Bowl ad of her career, the union marks her first official beauty partnership.

Boasting a glossy, music video-inspired visual, the clip “aims to flip the script on male stereotypes” with a powerful cast of women led by the GRAMMY winner and offers a hilarious take on the lip product’s “plumping sensation.”

“NYX is a brand that I’ve used since high school and that’s why it’s so special to partner with them for this campaign,” Cardi shared in a press release. “NYX has always made the best, affordable products, and that’s why I still use them today.”

Ahead of what will undoubtedly be a soaring performance of ‘Lift Every Voice and Sing‘ at Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday (February 11), Andra Day can be heard lifting her voice in the new song ‘Probably.’

Coming as the follow-up to her recently released ‘Where Do We Go,’ the February 5-released tune serves as the latest taste of new music set to line ‘Cassandra‘ – the first album from the GRAMMY-winning singer-actress since 2015’s ‘Cheers to the Fall.’

“You probably tell the world that I hated you / But you know more than anyone, that’s from true / I loved you, oh, oh / Probably tell the world I didn’t believe in you / But you know more than anyone, I’m solid, boo,” she croons on the Caleb Morris-produced cut.

Usher‘s new album, ‘Coming Home,’ has taken up residence at a familiar address: #1.

Hinged on a prominent sample of Subway & 702‘s 1994 classic of the same name, ‘This Lil Game We Play’ – the latest from legendary producer-songwriter Jermaine Dupri – unites a trio of hitmakers to help him hit a musical homerun.

While power couple Nelly and Ashanti sing the tune’s verses and hook, Juicy J comes in with a set of hypnotic yet naughty bars to seal the deal.

“Boy, I really want to stay / So we can play this little game we play / Where you go hide, and I will seek / Let me be the one to make you weak,” the GRAMMY-winning songstress croons on the dancefloor-ready bop.

The first taste from Dupri’s upcoming compilation album following So So Def’s newly minted partnership with Create Music Group, hop inside to hear the new tune in full.

As her City Girls co-hort JT continues to rake in acclaim from Hip-Hop fans for her February 2-released solo single ‘Sideways,’ rapper Yung Miami is looking to do the same with the new song ’50/50 Freestyle.’

“Money gettin’, I’m a money spender, you a runner / I ain’t goin’ 50/50 with no n-gga, I’m a hundred (B-tch) / F-ck I look like? / Silly hoes hatin’, please, address me as a boss, boo,” she raps on the Ace Redd and Aye YB-produced bop.

Announced Monday (February 5) as the first taste of her forthcoming ‘YAMS‘ era, ’50/50’ most notably offers a stinging slam of DJ Akademiks who she previously beefed with for slamming City Girls album sales and her proximity to Diddy during his sexual assault allegations.

“Akademiks, you a b-tch/Why you speaking on women?,” she inquires on the new song.
