Much to the dismay of Little Monsters, ‘Perfect Illusion,’ the long-awaited comeback single from Mother Monster Lady Gaga, didn’t exactly scare the competition away upon its recent Billboard Hot 100 debut this week.

Released September 9th to mixed critical review, the dramatic tune has (as of time reporting) accumulated nearly 17 million views on Youtube – a sum that certainly helped its moderate premiere placement on the singles chart.  Add to that sales of 100,000 first-week downloads (week ending Sept. 15), 8.3 million first-week U.S. streams, and 22 million in airplay audience, the Hot 100’s top 10 may have eluded ‘Illusion’ its debut week, but – with the debut of its official accompanying music video tonight –  there may still be hope…

As social media savvy rappers go, few can rival The Game.

It’s little wonder then why his recent feud Meek Mill was just as resonating on wax as it was on Instagram.

The MCs spent most of last weekend trading jabs over snitching, Sean Kingston, and a whole horde of other “differences.”

With the drama reaching fever pitch after mutual threats of violence, Wendy Williams attempted to play  peacemaker on today’s episode of her hit talkshow.

On set to promote his new album ‘1992’ (due October 7th), Game sat down with the former shock-jock to explain his gripe with Nicki Minaj‘s. Williams advised him strongly to step back from the flames rather than fuel them.

The insightful chat also saw the West Coast advocate speak on his squashed beef with former G-Unit comrade 50 Cent and more.

Ariana Grande is on her promotional grind.

With current single ‘Side To Side’ slaying the charts, she’s not resting on her laurels – especially with a tour to plug.

The latest stop on her TV rounds was The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

Usher unleashed his eighth studio album ‘Hard II Love’ on the masses last week. And though the final tally has yet to be counted, the official sales forecast sent the net into a flutter.

For, the set – led by singles ‘Crash’ and ‘No Limit’ – is on course to debut with 25,000; the lowest US numbers of the crooner’s career.

Given the unforgiving nature of today’s age and the fickleness of select fans, some have deemed it “the end” for the 8-time Grammy winner.

We’re not so sure about that, but can’t distract from the fact that something is…off.
