Nearly a month after first unleashing the music video to their joint single, ‘You For Me’ (as we reported here), British DJ-producer Sigala and award-winning singer-songwriter Rita Ora are giving fans a peek into the behind the scenes action of the sun-soaked visual.

Directed by Clara Cullen, the Los Angeles-filmed clip sees Rita channel some old-school Hollywood glamour poolside while crooning about the hardship of yearning for a love interest who is unaware of her desire.

‘I shoulda told you that I wanted you for me / You make it really hard to sleep / You keep me up / Baby, you’re my adrenaline,’ she relays in the Charli XCX-penned bop.

For the last 11 years, Iggy Azalea – via a slew of mixtapes, studio albums, and EPs – has turned the music world on its head with her Australian-meets-Southern U.S. dialect, unwavering dedication to the production of quality music videos, and drop of bop-after-bop across Hip Hop and Pop.

And while those efforts were met with varying levels of success, what remained constant was that her devoted fans – affectionately called #Azaleans – seemed to have an insatiable appetite for her content, demanding more after each critically-acclaimed delivery.

Yet, as alluded to by the title of her August 13-released album ‘End of An Era’ (click here to stream), all good things must come to an end.

Look inside to hear her explain why.

Lil Nas X has tall goals for himself and his career.

The 22-year-old covers Variety Magazine‘s Power of Young Hollywood Issue and seized the moment to pose it up and dish on many a topic.

Nas also opened up about his forthcoming debut album (due this summer), which is also titled ‘Montero.’

It’s showtime for the stars of ‘BET Presents The Encore.’

Viewers have been glued to the series, which unites notable names from 90s and 00s ensembles with the goal of creating a  supergroup.

Produced by reality royal Carlos King, the cast is comprised of: Aubrey O’Day (Danity Kane), Kiely Williams (3LW), Shamari DeVoe (Blaque), Pamela Long (Total), Irish & LeMisha Grinstead (702), Fallon & Felisha King Cherish), and Nivea (Soloist).

The ladies lived together and were given a limited window to form a cohesive group and establish their live gravitas by way of intense dance classes, vocal training, and much more.

Differences and division meant not all of the cast made it to the finish line.

However, those that did have lifted the lid on their freshly formed four-piece group – which goes by the name BluPrint.

Ahead of tonight’s finale, they’ve unleashed their self-titled EP.

Comprised of the six songs they worked on over the course of the season with Kosine and Elijah Blake, tracks featured include ‘Skeletons’ and ‘Birds Eye View.’

With the hard work complete, listen to ‘BluPrint’ below…

Ironically, while her former group Fifth Harmony cranked out a hit named ‘Worth It,’ the singer opens up about feeling anything but that during her time in the band.

Now, though, armed with an unshakable self-confidence and creative independence, she’s strutting ahead full steam to higher heights.

Of the hotly anticipated material, Queen Bey – who rarely speaks about her music before its release – confirmed: “it’s coming!”
