‘Applause’ performer Lady Gaga is getting just that as she unveils the accompanying tracklist to her new album ‘ArtPop’ (due November 11).

Enlisting the help of Los Angeles fans she’s christened “LA Rivington Rebels”, the pop diva shared the titles to the numbers that will line one of the season’s most anticipated offerings.

Tuck in below to see the spectacle that is the art that escorted ‘ArtPop’ titles to the net:

While fans wait with bated breath for the tracklist for ‘ArtPop’, the newest album from pop chameleon Lady Gaga, the songstress satiates with a lyric video to a new tune.

Naysayers may have doubted initially, but now it seems pop princess Britney Spears’ newest song ‘Work B*tch’ is doing just that – working.

Indeed, the song nearly slipped out of the top 50 a week after its debut on Itunes, but weeks later, after a smoking hot video to aid, the dance number appears to have re-entered the race – giving a run to chart champions Lorde, Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry (who have collectively dominated the Hot 100 all summer long).

Their efforts appear to be extending into the fall as well, but will their catchy tunes be enough to keep Britney at bay?  This week’s chart check awaits…

Singing sensation Ariana Grande has undoubtedly been a breath of fresh air for 2013’s pop music lovers.  A welcomed departure from EDM and the dearth of talent plaguing the day’s charts and radio alike, the pop princess has taken the genre by storm with a #1 album and top-selling singles to her credit.

Immediately drawing comparisons to an early 90s Mariah Carey, the up-and-comer has polarized Carey’s fans (affectionately called Lambs) for what some of them feel is a blatant duplication of the diva’s singing style.

Those fans’ anger grew to new heights today when Grande took to Billboard.com to list in grand style an homage to her top 5 favorite female vocalists.  Praising the likes of Whitney Houston and Brandy, there’s one name that, to the surprise of some, didn’t quite make the cut…

Lorde leaves to little wonder why her debut album ‘Pure Heroine’s addictive lead single ‘Royals’ is reigning atop Billboard charts for a second week.  Proof can be found in the songstress’s stop by ‘Ellen’ today to lend an impressive live showing of the number.

Performing it for the first time on daytime television, the 16-year-old brought her latest taste of dark pop to fans the same day she was greeted with news its parent album shifted 129,000 its first week to give her a #3 debut.

With a bevy of Billboard chart toppers jointly and separately to their credit, Toni Braxton & Babyface took to Tuesday’s episode of “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” to lend a reminder that their hitmaking power has no end in sight.

Showing off the first televised performance of their newest hit ‘Hurt You’, the duo wowed the audience with the R&B chart-topper just a month before they prep the release of their Motown-duets album ‘Love, Marriage, & Divorce’ (Nov. 25).

Grammy winning gospel diva Yolanda Adams is back to blazing charts with ‘Best For Last’ – the Donald Lawrence helmed number acting as the title track to his latest #1 album.

Most recently sharing the tune coast-to-coast with enthusiastic crowds on Verizon’s ‘How Sweet The Sound’ tour, the songstress took time backstage during an Atlanta stop to answer fan questions and weigh in on pressing pop culture topics.

Imparting her opinion on serial twerker Miley Cyrus, a potential Brandy duet, and her own new offerings with legendary producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, tuck in below to hear the ‘Victory’ songstress share some words of wisdom and more.

Do you agree?
