John Legend fans rejoice!

For tonight, one month before the release of his new album ‘Love in the Future‘, the serial hit maker releases the clip for his brand new single ‘Made To Love’.

Artistic, sexy and easily one of his braver clips to date, the visual follows the launch of ‘Love‘s first single, ‘Who Do We Think We Are’.

However, as we’re sure you’ll agree, ‘Made’ is no doubt on course to outperform the aforementioned single, especially once the world sets its sights on the scorcher below!!

Jordin Sparks has a hit on her hands!

That’s right, after taking some time to find her feet as an artist, the Urban Pop Princess has unleashed a sun kissed new jam named ‘Skipping a Beat’.

We kid you not when we say it’s already our favourite song to drop this summer, built for Top 40 Radio but laced with a generous amount of Urban seasoning…giving everyone here at TGJ no choice but to pop a little shoulder bounce.

Basically…..we’re in love with it.

Say what you will about Rihanna, but little can be done to downplay her leading role in the play that is Pop music.

By no means a remarkable vocalist, the star has-in recent years- morphed herself into an albums seller, watching each and every LP she’s released since 2010 sell no less than 3 million units worldwide….impressive, by anyone’s standards.

Only right then, that she assesses her worth as an act today and secures a brand new recording contract- complete with new terms and conditions set to catapult her even further to Pop supremacy.

Good news below…

She’s the internationally renown superstar with a voice that boasts 3 octaves and 2 US Top 40 singles to her name.

Perhaps, it’s for these reasons many a critic is dying to hear what her sophomore album serves up on release, following the UK win nabbed by its lead single ‘Wild’.

Now watch the ‘Party in the USA’ writer tease her brand new single ‘It’s My Party’ via a Google+ Hangout session.

Find out why we’re already in love with it below!

With Lady GaGa and Katy Perry eyeing major numbers with their respective albums, they’ll no doubt be aware of Drake…the mega seller with a habit of outperforming many a Pop rival first week.

Today, in ensuring he does just that with his new album ‘Nothing Was The Same‘, the Hip Hop hero sends a brand new single the world’s way, featuring 2 Chainz and Big Sean.

Named ‘All Me‘, this one has hit written all over it, and if- our estimations are right- will send ‘Same’ straight to #1 upon release.

It’s shaping up to be a good week for Grammy winning singer/songwriter Robin Thicke.

With the weeks past affording him his first #1 single on Billboard Hot 100 ‘Blurred Lines’, news has now surfaced that the top-selling, Pharrell/T.I.-assisted number is assisting Thicke to his first ever Billboard 200 reign (to be reflected upon the chart’s refreshing next week).

The ‘Sex Therapy’ performer, who has been on a weeklong promo of the new critically acclaimed album, made his most recent stop aboard tonight’s episode of ‘America’s Got Talent’.  Rejoining former ‘Real Husbands of Hollywood’ co-star Nick Cannon, see Thicke show ’em how it’s done with his show-stopping performance below:

‘Dirty Laundry’ diva Kelly Rowland cleaned up quite nicely for the September 2013 issue of Essence magazine, of which she graces the cover (as seen above).

As previously reported, the mag – set to hit stands August 9th – is accented by a feature story that sees Rowland reflect on the incidents that make-up her tell-all, Dream-penned hit ‘Dirty Laundry’ as well as dish on her relationship with her estranged father and much more.

But, before you can read that story in its entirety, get into the fierce photos that will accompany it in this behind the scenes showing:

As super-producers go, they don’t come more successful than Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins.

The hitmaker embodies the word in the most literal sense, having cooked up chart smashes for the likes of Michael Jackson, Beyonce, Lady GaGa, and Whitney Houston.

Now, the Grammy winner is venturing into reality TV with his singer wife Joy Enriquez. Christened ‘House Of Joy’, the show (which airs on Jennifer Lopez‘s new Spanglish channel, NUVOtv) chronicles the couple’s day-to-day life, as well as Enririque’s musical ambition.

Of course, in the spirit of asking the questions you want us to, we quizzed Jerkins on the latest projects he’s working on – which he revealed to be Mariah Carey, Kylie Minogue, Justin Bieber, and more.

Hit ‘PLAY’ to check out our EXCLUSIVE interview with the Rodney and Joy AND be sure to check out ‘House of Joy’ Thursdays at 10/9C only on NUVOtv!

Nelly, Nicki Minaj and Pharrell in the same video?!

The answer to the above…is simply yes.

Oh no.

As supporters of 2013’s brightest star Ariana Grande, we eagerly anticipate the release of her debut album ‘Yours Truly’ on September 3rd.

With this in mind, try your best to imagine our horror upon laying eyes on its recently released cover art, bland and disturbing…all at the same time.

Lacking the personality that draws so many to her music, but too ‘Lolita-esque’ to look at without playing re-runs of ‘To Catch A Predator’ in one’s mind, the cover is-rather unfortunately- all shades of off putting.

Here’s hoping the response it will no doubt garner encourages Camp Grande to change it in time for release, baring her young audience- and the mothers they’ll pester to pick up the album for them, in mind.

Your thoughts?

Competition this way comes.

As the Monsters prepare to get its hands on Lady GaGa‘s brand new single ‘Applause’, today saw the song find fresh competition in Katy Perry, and the first single to be pulled from her new album ‘Prism’.

Why, you ask?
