The majority of her contemporaries may depend on writing camps to craft their hits, but it seems Beyonce‘s ‘DIY’ approach to songwriting may be to thank for the recent success she’s enjoyed with her self-titled new album.
Indeed, weeks after the jam surfed to #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, the producer behind her Jay-Z backed “Drunk in Love” has revealed the star wrote the bulk of the song herself.
Detail’s details on the radio-rocking release below!
If ever Pharrell Williams had a day to be ‘Happy’, it’s today.
For the Neptunes frontman has scored his first number one on the Billboard Hot 100 as a lead artist.
Interestingly, Williams isn’t the only major star earning a career first on the coveted tally; John Legend has charged into the top ten of the count – a height that had eluded him despite consistently impressive album sales.

After disappointing some fans with “Talk a Good Game“s speedy era, Kelly Rowland whipped up quite the buzz for its follow up last week, when she stormed Nigeria’s “Love Like a Movie” concert outing.
It was there, months removed from the new LP’s launch, did the “Simply Deep” songbird showcase the live prowess that’s turned her into one of R&B’s more revered contributors.

Danity Kane may still be cooking up their album, but that hasn’t stopped the group from serving up new material – both solo and as a collective.
The latest cut comes courtesy of member Dawn Richard, who has put her unique spin on Katy Perry‘s chart smash ‘Dark Horse’.
Christened the ‘Unicorn Remix’, the track was recorded during a break at a recording studio session for DK.
Speaking on the re-fix, Dawn said: “It’s always fun to be in the lab with Noisecastle III. We were working on the Danity Kane project and decided to randomly take a break and this happened lol… For sh*ts and giggles… Something only the hearts can appreciate. We always do things with our little twist. Done in true heart music form.”

Despite premiering to favourable reviews, Mariah Carey‘s ‘You’re Mine (Eternal)’ has been wallowing in the mire since its release two weeks.
Indeed, the track had been taking colossal drops daily on the iTunes charts – crashing out of the top 1000 last week.
And while ‘Mine’ managed a #88 debut on the Billboard Hot 100, it only did so largely due to streams of its accompanying music video.
The singer’s ever-loyal Lambs needn’t fret, though. At least not as much. For the track has rebounded. Somewhat.
