‘A silent storm’.

Whichever way you look at it, the best would be the most accurate way to describe ‘Family Portrait’ entertainer Pink, and her ‘habit’ of moving major numbers without the media frenzy acts who hope to move those numbers often whip up for themselves.

For, while many a ‘stan’ finds themselves focusing on the Katy Perry vs Lady GaGa chart war that now ensues, the general public has pushed sales of Pink‘s new album ‘The Truth About Love’ to heights many are simply unaware of.

 Understanding.

The above is what Eminem showcases in his brand new number ‘Headlights‘ today, pulled from his forthcoming ‘The Marshall Mathers LP 2′.

Indeed, while the bulk of his career has seen him address his childhood and the role his allegedly negligent mother played in orchestrating its difficult nature, it’s an understanding of the woman he said he once hated the performer comes to in the number….apologising for the pain he believes his lyrics put her through.

Freshly poured from Def Jam’s ever flowing creative pipe comes August Alsina this year, the Hip Hop and R&B heartthrob sailing towards the Billboard Hot 100 aboard the budding smash that is ‘I Luv This‘.

So, it should come as a little surprise that yesterday saw him arrive at Power 105‘s ‘Breakfast Club’ hours ago, hoping to push his brand of baby making music to the show’s loyal audience. An audience, who no doubt would have been charmed, intrigued and impressed by the Southern gentleman and the story behind his rise to fame.

An icon she may be, but her career of late tells an altogether different story.

As speculation mounts regarding the release Beyonce‘s new album, the Pop superstar is gearing up for a release of another sort – the DVD roll-out of her hit HBO documentary ‘Life Is But A Dream’.

Originally aired on February 16th this year, the fly-on-the-wall feature film followed the 31-year-old as she promoted her multi-Platinum ‘4’ album, duties she juggled with pregnancy.

Now, from November 25th, fans can relive the diary-like production – which saw the singer reveal that she had suffered a miscarriage prior to the birth of 21-month old daughter Blue Ivy.

What’s more, the DVD will come packaged with a bonus disk containing her full Revel 2012 comeback show, as well as a download of brand new song – ‘God Made You Beautiful’.

Eager to hear? No need to wait! A teaser of the track features in the freshly released trailer, which you can watch below! The full Revel Show songlist also awaits…
