Her fans may be confused by her current album campaign, but it’s clear that it’ll take more than confusion to get in the way of Rihanna fans and their support for the Grammy winning singer.

For, even without a supporting music video or physical promotion in the market, the star’s ‘Bitch Better Have My Money’ has found a spot in the UK’S Top 40.

Good news after the jump…

J. Cole continues to  his flaunt his flair for the unconventional.

Last December saw the rapper announce his third album ‘2014 Forest Hills Drive’ with minimal notice and no preceding songs.

In the time since, he’s followed with left-field singles and videos – the latest being ‘Wet Dreamz.’

We won’t pre-empt too much. But, let’s just say the dogs will make sense after the jump…

With Rihanna‘s new album still nowhere to be found, impatient fans have been flocking to other artists.

Hoping to reel them back in, the 27-year-old has employed her tried and tested means of courting attention – stripping.

The Bajan sensation showcases her particulars a-front of V Magazine‘s Summer 2015 issue. Ms. Fenty’s latest distraction tactic even came with an obligatory new wig.

Offering a morsel of info on her (thus far) poorly received new music, the model mused:

“My eighth studio album was a place for me to completely express myself creatively with no boundaries and try anything I wanted.”

Is it us or is someone slowly deviating from her initial claim of aiming to create “timeless music” this go round? To be fair, we would too after ‘Bitch Better Have My Money.’

Anyway, peep more below…

Kelly Rowland may be gearing up to front her very own BET show, but that hasn’t halted the recording of her fifth studio album.

The ‘Motivation’ maven was snapped in the studio with hitmaker Polow Da Don this week, presumably working on material for the follow-up to 2013’s ‘Talk A Good Game.’

Rowland’s sophomore effort, ‘Ms. Kelly,’ was the last time the pair teamed up; Polow produced its lead single ‘Like This.’

With the singer angling for a more “uptempo” sound this go round and Polow renowned for his versatility, we’re eager to hear what they’ve been cooking up.

Your thoughts?
