Tinashe‘s sophomore album may have been titled ‘Joyride’ – yet the journey to its release has been anything but.

The follow-up to her 2014 debut ‘Aquarius’ has been teased since late last Summer. Yet, almost a year on, it’s still missing in action.

To complicate matters, the 23-year-old singer has not only revealed that she feels the album is done, she embarked on and completed an American tour in support of the project – which, of course, is still not out. Muddying the waters even more is the fact that the LP has thus far spawned several songs including ‘Player (ft. Chris Brown)’ and ‘Party Favors.’

In recent months, the rising star has maintained a silence of sorts. However, it’s becoming clear she hasn’t been relaxing. She’s been working with super-producer Timbaland.

With over 400 million units sold worldwide, Puff Daddy’s Bad Boy roster dominated the music landscape in 90s through to the early 00s.

Hit after hit (and drama after drama) ensured the Hip-Hop outfit were a fixture on the charts and in the headlines.

With a combined 38 platinum and multi-platinum selling records and over 400 million units sold worldwide,

Keen to sip on the sweet nectar of nostalgia, Puffy is reuniting all the major players from the posse for the ‘Bad Boy Family Reunion Tour.’

Initially a one off set of shows at New York’s Barclays Center this weekend, the concerts – which feature the likes of Lil Kim, Faith Evans, 112, and Total – have been expanded to a full US arena trek.

Speaking on the venture, mogul Puffy said:

“This isn’t just a concert– this is a moment in hip hop and R&B history. The family and I are so excited to welcome fans into this once in a lifetime experience.  This tour is 20 years in the making, and is a celebration of the hits and the Bad Boy lifestyle. The Bad Boy Family has set the standard for concert excellence, and this tour will be a testament to that!”

Season 3 of That Grape Juice‘s live series The Splash welcomes Nathan Sykes!

The vocal nucleus of boyband The Wanted has since broken out solo and has been steadily building buzz with cuts such as ‘Kiss Me Quick’ and the Ariana Grande assisted ‘Over And Again.’

On his TGJ debut, the rising star delivers a soaring rendition of new single ‘Give It Up,’ the studio version of which features man of the moment G-Eazy.

Flavoursome and soul-filled, the song puts a modern spin on Blackstreet classic ‘Don’t Leave’ – which, when paired with Nathan’s powerful vocals – leaves a lasting impression.

Is the latest wave of Adele mania about to be unleashed this summer? It appears so.

Following the gargantuan success of ‘Hello,’ housing album ’25’ exploded at retail and has, since its November 2015 release, sold over 17 million copies worldwide.

Seemingly content, the British bred superstar has spent much of 2016 focussed on touring the globe. So much so, that the LP’s second single ‘When We Were Young’ received a limp push and no traditional video. [It still hit top ten, but we digress…]

If any of her contemporaries were beginning to think “coast clear” then they may need to revise their strategy. Because, moments ago, the 28-year-old previewed the video for ’25’s official third single – the Max Martin moulded ‘Send My Love (To Your New Lover).’

To say the race for #1 on next week’s Hot 100 is tight is quite the understatement.

Just one week after ‘One Dance’ – the latest single from Drake‘s sixth album ‘Views’ – topped the charts (giving the rapper his first leading reign atop the tally), news comes the dapper divo’s run may be abruptly cut due to his ‘Cabaret’ co-star Justin Timberlake.

Indeed, after the latter’s new single, ‘Can’t Stop the Feeling,’ felt its way to the top of iTunes charts shortly after its premiere, reports now have it the tune will be experiencing similar success on the Hot 100.
