Macklemore & Ryan Lewis are no strangers to controversy and incite exactly that on their latest track ‘White Privilege II.’

The song, which features on the duo’s upcoming new album ‘The Unruly Mess I’ve Made’ (due Feb 26th), sees the indie stars take aim at Iggy Azalea and Miley Cyrus in the most direct way:

A sequel to 2005 track ‘White Privilege’, which appeared on Macklemore’s solo album ‘Language of My World’,  the new cut clocks in at nearly nine minutes.

The duration provides ample time for the MC to vent about racial tension in America, the Black Lives Matter movement, and white artists who he believes have appropriated black culture.

Taking a wholly direct approach to articulating his stance, Mr Macklemore raps:

“You’ve exploited and stolen the music, the moment/The magic, the passion, the fashion you toyed with/The culture was never yours to make better/You’re Miley, you’re Elvis, you’re Iggy Azalea”

In the time since the announcement, a host of names of weighed – most notably Jada Pinkett  whose video complaint has gone viral.

Now, following claims from ‘Fresh Prince‘ actress Janet Hubert that Jada is only jarred because her husband Will Smith wasn’t honored, Will himself has broken his silence.

Fleur East is wasting no time pounding the promotional pavement in support of new single ‘More & More.’

Fresh from announcing the song as the second cut from her debut album ‘Love, Sax, and Flashbacks,’ fire-filled Fleur rocked the house with the track at the 2016 National Television Awards last night.

Backed by a slick lady band, East roused London’s O2 Arena with her trademark sass, intricate choreography, and confident command of the stage.

We, personally, would have preferred to see the likes of ‘Breakfast’ or ‘Gold Watch’ gifted the single treatment; but with performances like this, we’re just glad to see such a talented act rocking the spotlight the way she is.

The lead (and subsequent) singles from the project begun being rolled-out one year ago, and still the LP’s release is an Unsolved Mystery. Even after the model commenced her distraction tactic of a Samsung campaign for the set, it only seemed to cause more confusion.
