Tonight marked the return of BET’s highly anticipated ode to women of color ‘Black Girls Rock.’

Much like its ‘BET Honors’ counterpart, the event enlists some of music’s best and brightest performers to serenade and shine light on women of color who have made impacts on and in their respective personal and professional communities.

Airing moments ago, the Tracee Ellis Ross hosted showing honored R&B legend Gladys Knight, Grammy-winning hitmaker Rihanna, and so many more.

Tuck in below to see the highlights from one of entertainment’s biggest nights:

Remember that whole “swearing off Twitter forever” thing Azealia Banks promised just weeks ago?  Well, apparently she doesn’t.

For, in typical A.B. form, the ‘ATM Jam’ diva is dispensing some controversy-causing shade on social media and, in turn, has tongues wagging.  Unlike many of her former victims on the site, her newest target – Sarah Palin – is planning her clapback in the courtroom.

Did you miss any of the action?  Tuck in below to find out what ensued after Banks suggested Palin ‘get a train run on her’ and film the venture for WorldStar…

Beyonce is building more than a new album, she’s moulding an empire.

As reported, the diva extraordinaire is morphing her Parkwood Entertainment imprint into a label that houses artists beyond herself. One of said signees are sister duo Chloe x Halle.

YouTube sensations with over half a million subscribers, the teen sensations (aged 18 and 16 respectively) are now being shepherded by the ‘Formation’ maven.

Naturally, then, all eyes and ears are on their collective output.

The first taste arrived today in the form of ‘Drop’ – the group’s new video.

A plethora of shade grenades ensured that the climax of The Real Housewives of Atlanta season 8 caused fiery flames.

Surprisingly for viewers of the Bravo hit, the third instalment of the reunion special one of said spars occur between “friends” NeNe Leakes and Porsha Williams.

For, when quizzed by host Andy Cohen about her thoughts on Williams’ violent behavior, Leakes did not hold back and publicly took her bosom buddy to task – warning that her “ways” could have an adverse affect on her career.

Still unimpressed with the comments, Porsha spoke up and out on her DISH Nation radio show, accusing her detractor of…”casting curses on her career.”

Tonight is “the” night for Kelly Rowland.

The Grammy winner’s new talent search ‘Chasing Destiny’ airs tonight at 10.30pm ET on BET.

Stopping by The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 on her latest stop, Ms. Kelly spilled on the show (which certainly seems to have its host network very excited). She also spoke on motherhood, marriage, and new music.

Much like his ‘FourFiveSeconds’ co-star Rihanna, the campaign surrounding Kanye West‘s latest opus, ‘The Life Of Pablo,’ has been a rollercoaster to say the least.

Despite being greeted by critical acclaim from music industry insiders to fans alike, the album’s sales have been…umm…interesting considering it’s only been available for stream via Tidal and for purchase via his own official web site.

Well, that was, until last week.

Now with spins being earned on Spotify, Apple Music, and more, West may very well be ready to see that “rollercoaster” ride him right to the top of the Billboard 200.  Challenging next week’s top contenders for the spot – Zayn Malik, Jhene Aiko/Big Sean, and Rih, ‘Pablo’ is set to see new life breathed into it.  The feat, if accomplished, will be accompanied by some history-making news:
