Grammy winning R&B diva Toni Braxton did more than hurt a few fans when she implied that she’d be retiring from the music business earlier this year.

That was then, however.  For, now it appears the ‘Unbreak My Heart’ hitmaker has had a change of heart as evidenced by news broken here that she’d be re-teaming with longtime collaborator Babyface for a new duets album promised for a September release.

Titled ‘Love Marriage Divorce’, as time draws closer to its release, tuck in below to find out when you will have your first listen at its lead single ‘Hurt You’

Looks like that Katy Perry reign is the one that just won’t let up.

Indeed, after etching her name in history books for clocking 5 #1 hits from her 2010 release ‘Teenage Dream’, the Grammy nominated songstress looks well on her way to a repeat if the strong sales of her latest single ‘Roar’ are anything to go by.

In just a matter of days, the tune is already on track to top digital charts with insiders projecting over 450k units moved by the week’s end – over twice that of her nearest competitor Lady Gaga (who, despite earlier reports, is now projected to move 200-250k in the first week of her tune ‘Applause’s release).

But, while fans wait with bated breath to learn which of the pop princesses will reign atop digital charts next week, Perry is undoubtedly hoping her new fragrance ‘Killer Queen’ will be met with an equivalent royal fanfare.  Teasing her faithful Katycats with glimpses at its visual and accompanying photoshoot, now a behind-the-scenes look at its creation has surfaced.

Having hit it big with new single ‘We Can’t Stop’, Miley Cyrus is shifting her focus to its parent album ‘Bangerz’.

Featuring hard-hitting production from the likes of Mike Will, Pharrell Williams, and will.i.am, the set is being touted as a rebirth of sorts for the former Pop teen queen. Indeed, the serial twerker, now 20, has made no secret of the LP’s pronounced “Urban lean”.

Jury’s out on whether it’ll impress or be a contrived mess. What is certain, though, is that its official release date awaits after the jump…

Well, well, what do we have here? To be fair, we’re not sure why we’re asking as it’s quite the familiar sight. Pop rebel Rihanna was snapped shooting a brand new music video.

The nocalist was spotted on the New York set alongside rappers A$AP Rocky, A$AP Ferg, and A$AP Illz last night.

Little is known about the shoot, yet with it reported that RiRi is cooking up new material, we wouldn’t be surprised if this had something to do with McAlbum #8.

Whatever the case, peep more pics below via our close friends Rihanna Daily
