Pop force Justin Timberlake is poised to rocket to the top of the charts with the sequel to ‘The 20/20 Experience’ next month. And while he’s a proven solo titan, the 31-year-old has called on two of music’s biggest names to join him on the journey.

Roc Nation mogul Jay-Z re-teams with Timberlake, after enjoying mega-selling success with their previous joint efforts ‘Suit & Tie’ and ‘Holy Grail’. Meanwhile, Canadian MC Drake makes an appearance, marking his first collaboration with the JT.

‘The 20/20 Experience’ continues.

After selling over 2 million copies of the original (since March), Justin Timberlake is gearing up for the release of its aptly titled follow-up – ‘The 20/20 Experience (2 of 2)’.

Due September 30th, the fiercely anticipated set is preceded by single ‘Take Back The Night’, last Sunday’s much-loved VMA performance, and an inevitably long list of other promo stops.

So as to keep his buzz a’buzzing, the former Nsync’er has unwrapped a new teaser clip for the set, which sees him reflecting on the recording process, as well as in the studio with longtime collaborator Timbaland.

Miley Cyrus may be the definitive talking point of Sunday night’s VMAs, however the ladies of Danity Kane also made headlines aplenty with news of their reunion.

Dawn, Aubrey, Aundrea, and Shannon sent fans into a frenzy after announcing their comeback effort ‘Rage’ at the Pop culture extravaganza.

Beyond the single reveal, the ladies have remained relatively coy on the details surrounding their project (which will almost certainly be packaged with a reality show). They did, however, spill morsels of information to Billboard as they arrived on the red carpet at the MTV staple.

Watch below as the quad speak on reforming, their new sound, having an album worth of material already, and more. D. Woods‘ response also awaits after the jump…

After making quite the splash with debut album ‘Contrast’, Conor Maynard is back with ‘R U Crazy’ – the lead single from his forthcoming sophomore set.

An edgier slice of Urban-Pop, the Labrinth produced cut continues where the likes of ‘Can’t Say No’, ‘Vegas Girl’, and ‘Animal’ left off, with the key point of difference being Maynard’s positioning as a “man”. Indeed, at 20, the rising star seems keen to ensure his music matures as he does – a point underlined emphatically in this his latest video.

Oft compared to Justin Bieber, one look and listen to ‘R U Crazy’ suggests the Brit singer is more inspired by another Justin – while staying true to himself. See what we mean below…

And with its housing album being co-produced by Dr Dre, it too is slated for major success.

Flip the hood to listen to its first offering and let us know if it’s deserving!

How fierce does Ciara look in the September issue of Paper magazine?

The dynamo diva strikes many a haute pose for the publication in support of her blazing new self-titled album.

Led by ‘Body Party’ and ‘I’m Out (ft. Nicki Minaj)’, the LP opened at #2 on the Billboard 200 upon release last month. Naturally optimistic, Super Ci told the magazine of her upcoming plans:

“I feel like my journey’s just beginning. On this journey, there’s much I haven’t done. I still feel like a little kid. I still have my youthful energy and spirit. I’m super excited by my future.”

According the feature, the Grammy winner’s fans will be excited to learn that she’s gearing up to set sail  on an intimate venue tour in a bid to give her supporters an up, close, and personal experience. This will be launched off the back of her upcoming dual single release of ‘Overdose’ and ‘Where You Go (ft. Future)’.

For now, though, get familiar with the stunning new snaps below…

Like most award shows this year, millions the world over tuned in to the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards last night with hope of seeing chart titan Beyonce. Indeed, though no announcement had been made, it didn’t stop legions of the singer’s BeyHive from anticipating something…anything…from the star – especially as she’s a) clearly gearing up to release new material and b) lives where the show was held — New York.

As the night would have it, King B did not grace the stage. She was, however, spotted with hubby Jay-Z at an official VMA after-party.

Are we slightly jarred that the 31-year-old didn’t even attend? Naturally, as the show served up little in the way of “spectacle” beyond Lady GaGa‘s stellar showing. That said, there is an air of hilarity in how much Mrs Carter consistently has everyone on the edge of their seat. Let’s just hope she doesn’t keep folk waiting so long that they fall off it.

Peep more pics and a clip after the jump…
