If you thought Mike Will Made It‘s star faded just as quickly as it’d risen, think again.

The hitmaking producer – who has wielded hits for the likes of Ciara, Miley Cyrus, Kanye West, and many more – taps his ‘Pour It Up’ co-star Rihanna for the lead single for ‘Ransom 2’ (the follow-up to his 2014 release ‘Ransom‘).

Titled ‘Nothing is Promised,’ the tune bumps over an EarDrummers beat while Rih coos about a number of usual topics (n*ggaz, money, shopping, drinking).  Coming as her latest collabo with a super-producer in just a month (see:  Calvin Harris ‘This Is What You Came For’), it appears the Bajan beauty is on quite the roll while her own solo project ‘Anti,’ still maintains buoyancy in the top 5 of the album charts.

That  Rihanna reign just won’t let up and now you can get into ‘Promised’ below to get a reminder why:

Tamar Braxton‘s allegedly problematic behaviour on ‘The Real’ has done little to tarnish her friendship with Steve Harvey.

Accused of berating and belittling several employees during her time on the aforementioned series, Braxton’s departure from the series- much to the delight of her fans- dos not mark the end of her run on television.

Why?

Harvey has given her her very own talkshow.

“Unbelievable. Unstoppable. Unbreakable”

Cop a gander of Janet Jackson!

The Pop queen, who is reportedly pregnant with her first child, covers the latest issue of Emirates Woman magazine.

Flashing her trademark smile, the superstar songstress appears in the publication in support of her luxury Unbreakable Diamonds Collection.

Interestingly, it’s the first traditional promo she’s embarked on since her comeback. And, given how great she looks, we wish she’d have done more shoots in this vein (even if selectively) to plug her stellar album.

In any case, peep more gorgeous pics below…

As reported here, the tight race for the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 kept fans of Ariana Grande, Drake, and Blake Shelton on the edge of their seats until tallying ended this weekend.

A debate starter for sure as early predictions forecasted Drizzy would sell the least, but thanks to streaming, would probably retain the top spot with his hit album ‘Views.’  Conversely, Shelton – who was on track to sell the most – would probably debut the lowest of the three due to lack of streaming.  Lastly, Grande – with her third album ‘Dangerous Woman’ – would potentially see her set mark the first time she missed the #1 spot.

Now, with the official numbers in, it appears the predictions were all spot on.  While Drake’s set shifted 189,000 equivalent album units this week (50,000 of which were in traditional album sales), Ari’s project debuted at #2 with 175,000 equivalent album units (129,000 in pure album sales).

To-date ‘Halo’ remains one of Beyonce‘s biggest hits. And for Ryan Tedder, the Pop maestro who produced it, the track birthed a level of respect for Queen Bey that continues to grow.

When quizzed about his thoughts on her chart-topping 6th album ‘Lemonade,’ the One Republic frontman was more than endorsing.

Peep excerpts from his chat with Newsweek below…

Bryson Tiller is on a blazing trail.

The rising star may have courted controversy when his debut ‘T R A P S O U L’ was certified Platinum on merit of mostly streams, but there’s no denying the tangibility of his buzz. Especially following the success of ‘Don’t’ – which peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Aiming to cement his status as R&B’s definitive one-to-watch, the 23-year-old has debuted the video for latest single ‘Exchange.’

Released last year, the song has been on a steady ascend in the Urban arena and has managed to climb to #23 on the US tally.

With a visual, courtesy of Rohan Mangat, in the mix, can it leap higher. Watch below and let us know…
