Janet Jackson shocked the world this week when reports of her being pregnant hit the newswire.

She’s yet to say anything, but the public congrats from industry friends and producers suggest that the 49-year-old diva is indeed expecting.

By no coincidence, Ms. Jackson seized the moment to release the video for her aptly titled new single ‘Dammn Baby’ – which is lifted from her chart-topping ‘Unbreakable’ album.

Billed as her return to the dance-floor, the clip – with its high-octane choreography – has earned praise aplenty.

Watch below to see how it was pieced together, as well as how the song made it onto the album.

One Republic is back…and arguably better than ever.

Still riding high on the wave that is the Jeff Bhasker-backed LP ‘Native’, the Pop Rock band are gearing up to return to Pop’s courts to welcome their new single to the world.

Its title? ‘Wherever I Go.’

Its premise? Frontman Ryan Tedder explains:

It’s very much about obsession, and almost an unnatural, unhealthy level of obsession. It doesn’t personify the entire album and I think it’s going to really surprise people, the other thing i’ll say that’s rather important is that we spent ages making sure that it was actually live.’ 

 A lot of what intrigues me the most is some of the weirder stuff so like Sigur Ros and Miike Snow – I mean when you hear it you’ll definitely hear some of that kind of – I’ve been a long time fan of Miike Snow, so you’ll probably hear a little hint of that kind of melody.

After earning two top 10 placements with ‘Focus’ (her third album’s original first single) and ‘Dangerous Woman’ (the set’s official lead release), Ariana Grande is undoubtedly hoping for a redo with “Into You,” the second single lifted from her tertiary LP ‘Dangerous Woman’ (due May 20).

Delivered tonight to her faithful #Arianators, the song follows a number of other teasers delivered from ‘Woman’ including ‘Be Alright’ and the Lil Wayne-assisted ‘Let Me Love You.‘ Collectively helping the album pass the 40k mark on preorders alone, tuck in below for your first listen at ‘Into You’ and tell us if it’s just what the powerhouse needs to be lifted to #1…

So, just as our retrospective features ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay’ allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, our newest feature Chart Rewind – a variation of our current Retro Rewind assay – accedes salutes to an entire era of music history.

This week we’ll ode Toni Braxton‘s 2000 comeback hit ‘He Wasn’t Man Enough,’ the first single lifted from her third LP ‘The Heat.’  Reaching its Hot 100 peak of #2 this week sixteen years ago, the up-tempo Rodney Jerkins-produced number was hailed by fans and critics as a welcomed departure from her standard catalog of slow jams.  Ushering her oft-praised contralto to a new generation of listeners, ‘Man Enough’ proved itself to be just enough to make fans forget the balladress’s bevy of legal and financial woes that kept her out of the limelight for the 3 years following her megahit ‘Unbreak My Heart.’

With its accompanying video featuring a cast of familiar faces (see: Robin Givens, Tamar Braxton, ‘Noah’s Arc’s Rodney Chester, and ex-husband Keri Lewis), pop the top on the jump below to waltz down memory lane and find out who else among your faves joined Braxton in the top 25 this week in 2000…
