Following Azealia Banks‘ headline-making remarks on the matter it seems racism is no longer a no-go area for today’s Pop star.

Once considered a taboo topic for record labels hoping to keep their artists as PC as possible the subject is now one many artists are now expected to address as stories of police brutality against minorities continues to dominate the news cycle.

Now, ‘Man Down‘ chanteuse Rihanna is baring all on her race-related experiences within the supposedly post-racial entertainment industry.

What she said will surprise many.

With new album ‘ANTI’ finally announced, the Rihanna promo machine has cranked into overdrive. And it seems the reaching has too.

The New York Times Style Magazine is the model’s latest cover and brings with it an interesting assertion.

The publication christens the 27-year old as one of “the greats.”

Of course the term is open to interpretation, but we’re left wondering what exactly she is great at? Certainly not singing. Or dancing. Or much else.

But, ay, confusion pretty much defines Rihanna’s career, so there’s nothing new there.

We’re talking about Rita Ora of course, the Pop princess whose ideas have seen her become a formidable force in music, fashion and now television.

Friday saw Raven Symone add yet another controversial statement to her yearlong list of “smh-worthy” moments when she informed ‘The View’ viewers that she would not hire someone if they had a “ghetto name.”  The statement set off a firestorm of articles, video responses, and other commentary on social media, even to the point the singer/actress/talk show host’s very own father got in on the action.

Weary of the criticism, Symone finally took to Facebook tonight to break her silence on the hot topic and clarify her stance.

Some say it’s too late and the damage has been done.  What say ye? Read her words below and tell us:

Whoever said R&B is dead needs to recheck its pulse.  For, this week marks the first time in nearly a decade the entire Billboard 200’s top 5 is made up solely of Urban acts (Hip Hop/R&B).

Indeed, Tamar Braxton, Drake, Future, The Weeknd, Fetty Wap, and, of course, pop queen Janet Jackson, are all in control of this week’s tally and waving the flag for Urban music high.  This is particularly the case for the latter who, as reported here, will not only bow at #1 with her long-awaited 11th album ‘Unbreakable,’ but will also break a few records along the way.

As if selling out arenas and topping charts without any traditional promo isn’t enough cause to celebrate, the ‘Escapade’ diva now has a new distinct honor to raise her glass to.  Find out what it is below and get your official chart check:
