For many, Christina Aguilera is hailed as one of today’s top talents. And while most will attribute that to her powerhouse vocals, we argue it’s also due to her dynamic versatility.

Xtina showcased exactly that last night at the 50th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, where she soared with new song ‘Shotgun’ (from her upcoming stint in TV show ‘Nashville’) and ‘Riot’ with popular Country outfit Rascal Flatts.

Watch the impressive performance below…

Cop a gander of Beyonce!

Queen B was snapped soaking up the Coachella festivities with Dance titan David Guetta.

The ‘Drunk In Love’ singer posed it up with the DJ following his headlining set, which also featured a brief appearance by Nicki Minaj, who performed ‘Hey Mama’ with him.

Speaking on his encounter with Ms. Knowles-Carter, Guetta beamed:

Omg !!!! Thank you so much to @Beyoncé and @nickiminaj for coming to see me on stage @Coachella!!!!! I Love you both!

It does beg the question; would you be here for a Beyonce x David Guetta collaboration?

R&B singer Mario and his blockbuster single ‘Let Me Love You’ are our pick for this week’s From The Vault.

With its melancholic melody, ‘Love’ served as the definitive big hit of Winter 04 – 05 spending a scorching 9 consecutive weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100. Reaching #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop tally, it was also Mario’s first international smash, hitting #1 in Germany and scoring Top 3 placements in the UK and Australia.

Produced by Scott Storch and written by Ne-Yo – who would emerge as a recording artist a few months later with that very sound – it was the first single from the artist’s sophomore set ‘Turning Point’ which sold over a million records.

Little X directed the song’s video which saw the matured singer falling for a girl in a drama-filled relationship. Throughout the visual they can be seen connecting through the art of dance and the colors used on the different murals compliments the song’s moodiness.

On many an occasion, we’ve been vocal about how we felt the male arena lacks diversity. Expanding on this, it seems like the real issue is that the “powers that be” aren’t grooming enough R&B male acts in the first place.

As such, we would love to see more Mario’s emerge; gifted male vocalists, with storytelling tones, and performance ability.

Whatever the case, kudos to Mario – and really Ne-Yo – for delivering a track that has stood and will no doubt continue to stand the test of time.
