It’s nearly been 11 years since Grammy winning divas Destiny’s Child graced record shelves with a studio LP, but if manager Matthew Knowles has his way, fans won’t have to wait 11 more before they can get their hands on some new-new from the trio.

Indeed, recently revealing he has “a few” projects in the works including a biography, television show, and more, Matthew – who still contractually manages the group – says he is “extremely hopeful” they will reunite for a new album and tour.

This, of course, after plans surfaced last year the music mogul was readying a tell-all movie based on them.  Read his words below:

Just like the misreported prediction surrounding its lead single ‘High by the Beach,’ Lana Del Rey‘s ‘Honeymoon’ has suffered a similar fate as its first week’s forecast has been recalculated.

While not as drastic as that of ‘Beach,’ which saw over a 70% drop after new reports surfaced, it’s certainly enough to stir up a frenzy among the diva’s devoted fans.  Indeed, once considered the frontrunner for the top spot on next week’s Billboard 200, the trap pop queen has been dethroned by Drake and Future‘s hotly selling mixtape ‘What A Time To Be Alive.’

Curious to know Del Rey’s new numbers?  We thought you’d be. Tuck in below for the original projections and see where she is expected to fall next week:

Brand Ariana Grande may have taken a hit with donut-gate, but that hasn’t stopped the pop starlet from pressing forward with her other sweet ventures.

As her faithful #Arianators anxiously await her return to television via tonight’s highly anticipated FOX series ‘Scream Queens,’ the pint-sized powerhouse is still pressing forward with the finishing touches on her official third LP ahead of its lead single ‘Focus’ (due October 25th).

To rev up the already high excitement, Grande took to the latest ‘V’ magazine (covered by Lana Del Rey) to dish on what fans should expect from the project, her TV outing, and so much more.  Get into it below:

Rihanna, Jessie J and Christina Aguilera.

The ladies above had the right idea when they called on the dynamic duo that forms Louis York to create critic-pleasing jams for them and now look on with pride as they release their first EP ‘Masterpiece Theater (Act 1).’

Delivered to the world this week the project sees Claude Kelly and Chuck Harmony join forces to build a project that pulls from their experiences as two of the industry’s most celebrated creatives and stories yet to be told by them…until now.

It’s been a good year for a number of Hip-Hop’s brightest stars.

After making major moves in their respective lanes with their respective business ventures the likes of Drake, Nicki Minaj (above) Jay Z & Diddy have seen their earnings place them on Forbes’ Hip-Hop Cash Kings list this year.

How the list is formulated? Forbes bases it on “pretax income from touring, record sales, streaming, publishing, merchandise sales, endorsements and other business ventures. Management, agent and attorney fees are not deducted. Earnings are calculated from June 2014 to June 2015 and based on data from Nielsen SoundScan, Pollstar, the RIAA and from interviews with managers, lawyers, executives and a handful of the artists themselves.”

Her debut album ‘Broke With Expensive Taste’ showcased a way with words, vocals and poetry  that places her ahead of most (if not all) her contemporaries…at least on a talent tip.

Alas, it’s the stories Azealia Banks creates for the media and not her music that has seen her pull in the most attention since she touched down on planet Pop four years ago, and for all the wrong reasons.

Today, footage captured her of calling an air steward a f***** saw her stripped of her “verified” status on Twitter and come under fire from critics who blasted her for what they’re calling a homophobic verbal assault.

Now, as she continues to function as an artist outside of the major label system we ask this simple question…

What’s next for Azealia Banks?

Here at TGJ HQ we feel her unique gift will see her follow in the footsteps of Grace Jones and dip in and out of mainstream approval and outlast a number of her unoriginal musicality-deficient rivals.

However, if the reaction to this scandal is anything to go by the rapper will have a long way to go before reaching the heights her talent should have already elevated her to.

Do you agree?

Weigh in below!

Banking on controversy to keep her in the headlines has been the foundation of Azealia Banks’ career. Now, as recent footage evidences, the Yung Rapunzel is not letting up or down on that expectation.

Recently demonstrating her fury is not limited to land, the rapstress took to Delta airlines to wield insults to crew members and passengers – even slamming the flight attendant with homophobic slurs.

Did you miss all the ruckus?  Catch the video below and see her interesting response:

Chris Brown serves up the cinematic in the newly unleashed video for singles ‘Liquor’ and ‘Zero’ – the lead releases from new album ‘Royalty.’ 

Co-directed by the singer himself, the joint clip (which clocks in at 9 minutes) finds the star navigating though a break-up, romancing a new love interest, and turning all the way up.

Perseverance.

It’s a trait Leona Lewis clearly possesses.

The songbird, who is the most successful X Factor winner of all time, unfortunately hasn’t enjoyed similar success with her latest album ‘I Am.’

Released September 11th, the set charted at #38 on the Billboard 200 after selling 9,125 copies. On home soil in the UK, it didn’t fare much better – opening at #12 with first week numbers of 8,500.

Nonetheless, the promotional push continues and led Lewis to the ‘Late Late Show With James Corden’ last night where she performed current Stateside single ‘Thunder.’

Peep the performance below, as well as the singer’s take on her sales…
