As one of the many superstars tied to the TIDAL initiative, Usher is finally leveraging the platform towards the release of new music.

Moments ago, the singer – who turned 37 this week – debuted a new track titled ‘Chains.’

Rapper Nas and Bibi Bourelly join Mr Raymond on the number, which aims to “break the chains of racial injustice” shown in high profile cases such as that of Trayvon Martin and Sandra Bland.

In an awesome move, the song received an “interactive premiere,” one which stresses that all #DontLookAway.

Before they were Destiny’s Child Destiny’s Child were The Dolls, fronted by the R&B singer KeKe Wyatt.

Alas, Mathew Knowles  fate would have it that the group would continue without Wyatt and with a stage-blazing vocal force named Beyonce as its leading lady.

Fast forward to today and Wyatt‘s musical journey has brought her to a brand new chapter of her life which she is to immortalise with her sixth studio album.

While newcomers The Weeknd and Fetty Wap have been the Hot 100 champions of 2015, it’s Drake who is still showing the new kids how it’s done.

Indeed, in addition to landing not one, but two #1 albums on the Billboard 200 this year (‘If You’re Reading This…’ and ‘What A Time…’ with Future), the rapper/singer/actor is now one step away from seeing similar success on the Hot 100 as his hot new tune ‘Hotline Bling’ ascends to the #2 spot.

Kept at bay this week by fellow Canadian crooner The Weeknd‘s ‘The Hills,’ if next week’s tally looks like industry analysts expect, Drizzy will nab his first #1 hit on the singles chart nearly 10 years into his career.  As if this isn’t cause enough to celebrate, the ‘Back To Back’ beau can also lift a toast to seeing his name peppered over the Hot 100 some 13 times – a feat that etches him further into history books (read more on that here).
