In celebration of his recently announced deal at Epic Records, Mario has dropped an epic music video for his first single under the venture: ‘Main One.’

After reworking its original incarnation (released in 2022 and featuring Tory Lanez), the GRAMMY nominee tapped hitmaking rappers Tyga and Lil Wayne for the cut’s remixed version released Friday (July 21).

“Girl, you could be honest with mе / You ain’t gotta be toxic with me / You don’t need no other options but me,” the crooner sings on the Mike Crook-produced jam.

Barely giving fans time to get acquainted with the sizzling tune before unleashing its equally spicy, Ben Marc-directed music video, hop inside to get to know ‘Main One’ a little better.

Over a clever sample of Dionne Warwick‘s 1964 classic ‘Walk on By,’ hitmaking rapper Doja Cat uses her new song – ‘Paint the Town Red‘ – to trumpet her independence.

“B-tch, I said what I said/I’d rather be famous instead/I let all that get to my head/I don’t care, I paint the town red,” she declares on the Earl on the Beat-produced bop.

Teased earlier this week, ‘Paint’ comes just weeks after its predecessor – ‘Attention‘ – failed to garner much of its namesake on the Billboard Hot 100 (peaking at #31 before quickly exiting the chart).

Undoubtedly one of many gems set to be performed on her headlining ‘The Scarlet Tour‘ (alongside Doechii and Ice Spice), look inside to get acquainted with ‘Paint’ before she delivers it live on a stage near you.

After scoring a top 5 R&B hit with their first collaboration, ‘Come Thru’ (found aboard Summer Walker‘s debut album ‘Over It‘), in 2019, the songstress reunites with her fellow Atlantan R&B superstar Usher – this time for his new single ‘Good Good.’

“I realize that I can’t be your lover / Let’s just keep it honest with each other / I’ll be happy for you when you find another / We ain’t good good, but we still good,” he croons on the Mel & Mus-produced chorus.

Unexpecdtedly announced just days ago, ‘Good Good’ also taps fellow Atlanta hitmaker 21 Savage to come along for the ride.

Believed to be the latest taste of new music set to board Ush’s long-awaited, late 2023-due new album – the follow-up to to 2016’s ‘Hard II Love’ – hop inside to hear the latest from the R&B royal.

Ciara and Chris Brown fans (the #CSquad and #TeamBreezy) have been calling for an official duet between the Southern R&B stageblazers since they first burst on the scene with their debut albums in the mid-noughties.

And while their shared stage time and admiration over the years have only further fueled that request, they have finally answered the longtime call with the joint single ‘How We Roll.’

“He say that I blow his mind every time I’m activated / You just tryna catch a vibe, CiCi got you fascinated / Jump up in a brand new ride, BM-dub, we ridin’, baby (Yeah), I ain’t gonna tell you lies.” they croon on the opening of the Deli Banger-produced bop.

Set to line Cici’s highly anticipated yet-titled eighth studio album alongside previous singles ‘Jump,’ ‘Da Girls,’ and ‘Better Thangs,’ roll inside to hear ‘How We Roll’ in full.

Having already made quite the splash at U.S. box offices as ‘Ariel’ aboard the live-action remake of the Disney classic ‘The Little Mermaid,’ singer-songwriter Halle Bailey is undoubtedly hoping for similar reception on the Billboard music charts with her long-awaited debut solo single: ‘Angel.’

Cardi B may have started the week on a low, but she’s most certainly ending it on a high.

As reported, the ‘WAP’ chart-topper was performing at Drais Las Vegas when a woman threw a drink on her.

Reacting almost as a reflex, the femcee threw the mic at the unnamed wrongdoer.

In an odd turn of events, “someone” (believed to be either the woman or a fellow reveler nearby) filed a battery report with the police the following day – listing Cardi as a suspect.

However, the rapper’s team has confirmed that no action is being taken.

Lizzo is usually used to trending at the top of the charts. However, this week has seen the ‘About Damn Time’ hitmaker trend for all the wrong reasons.

For, a sect of former employees joined forces to file a lawsuit against the performer – making a range of allegations that included sexual harassment, unfair treatment, and dismissal, as well as weight-shaming. The latter of which gave way to ample shock given how much of the star’s brand is anchored around body positivity.

Now, after days of silence, the Houston native has responded to the claims and the chaos that her name has been at the center of.
