Much like this week with Chris Brown and Monica, two of Urban music’s most-beloved characters – August Alsina and R. Kelly – faced off in the name of R&B.

Alsina, who dropped his highly anticipated sophomore album ‘This Thing Called Life,’ saw his album greeted to a bevy of critical acclaim (much like its predecessor ‘Testimony’).  While the latter-mentioned debuted at #2 to the tune of an impressive 67,000 sold, early reports indicated the former would not be able to claim similar heights as predictions placed it somewhere between 30-35,000 sold its first week. Not too far away, Kelly, with his 13th opus, ‘Buffet,’ was served predictions in the 28-33,000 range.  This, after an impassioned plea by the R&B royal for fans to support the genre.

The good news is they must have listened as both Alsina and Kelly exceeded their sales prediction by a notable margin.  On the other hand, the bad news appears they may have been so busy listening to Adele‘s ’25,’ they forgot to tell their friends as both R&B acts missed the top 10 of the Billboard 200 all together (a career first for Kelly).

Find out what their final numbers are for their respective first weeks of availability:

While his TGT bandmates duke it out on Instagram over last year’s beef, Tank is forging ahead with a new solo project due for release at the top of the year.

Titled ‘Sex, Love, & Pain II,’ the album – a sequel to his top-selling 2010 release ‘Sex, Love, & Pain’ (featuring the hit ‘Please Don’t Go’) – is set for a January 22nd premiere and has been preceded by the lukewarm received ‘Better For You.’  To amp up interest in the forthcoming project, the R&B vet taps a like suit in Shawn Stockman (of Boyz II Men) to accompany him on the bass-driven number ‘Already In Love.’ 

A move we cannot say we are mad at one bit as both crooners are world renown for their pipes, tuck in below to hear the tune and weigh in:

Always keen to lure young fans into his creative web the R&B force that is R. Kelly made his way to the ‘Huffington Post’ to discuss his latest album and the current state of his Grammy-kissed career.

Alas, his latest attempt to reach out and touch younger fans was thwarted by the publication when questions posed to him during their conversation led to him walking off set before it ended.

What those questions were related to? The numerous minors who have claimed that he molested them during his reign as the King of R&B.

The Adele media flood continues to make waves.

’25,’ the singer’s third studio album, is selling super-sonic numbers, a trend that looks set to extend well into the New Year.

Still, that hasn’t halted the songbird’s ambition to spread the gospel of her return. This time (and aptly so) it’s TIME Magazine that she graces.

Serving in regal red, the striking shot follows recent features for the likes of i-D, Rolling Stone, and The Observer.

While an inevitable truckload of additional sales await ’25’ in 2016, so too will a push for its official second single ‘When We Were Young.’ 

Check it out below. You’ll undoubtedly be hearing it on airwaves imminently…

In 2011 Beyonce booted her father, Mathew Knowles, from her management team when she allegedly learned he had been taking more than his fair share of money she had earned as his client.

His detractors are still yet to prove this publicly.

Unfortunately, her decision to part ways with him would see hopes of a reunion between she and her Destiny’s Child sisters placed on the back burner as the highly-respected mogul  owns all rights to the group.

Now, new reports claim that the ‘Gift from Virgo’ singer is sharpening her legal swords to fight for those rights so that she and her pals can relaunch the group…on their terms.

What Mathew has to say about his daughter’s alleged brave and bold moves?
