Beyond being known for Jennifer Lopez‘s breakout role, 1997’s ‘Selena‘ biopic remains a favorite among critics of the film genre for nearly 30 years.

But, according to the late Tejano Queen’s sister Suzette Quintanilla, the beloved movie wouldn’t have happened when it did had the family not felt “forced” to rush it to theaters just two years after the singer was slain by her fan club’s president Yolanda Saldivar.

Chance the Rapper plays double duty as performer and director in the music video for his latest single ‘Tree.’

Featuring Smino and fellow superstar emcee Lil Wayne, the new cut comes a reunion of sorts for Chance as he previously worked with the former on the song ‘Eternal‘ and the latter on DJ Khaled‘s 2017 smash ‘I’m the One.’

“I roll up for pretty girls that’s on their grind, gettin’ paid (Huh)  I roll up for women who like wine on crystal staircase (Igh, huh) / And I roll up for any my n–gas that’s stuck in that jam / Torn from their family, hustlin’ grams,” raps Chance over Groove and DexLVL production.

Released on Independence Day (July 4), the Kaycyy-produced cut was delivered exclusively to Apple Music for its first 24 hours of availability

It’s likely no coincidence Kesha chose to drop her highly anticipated sixth studio album, ‘Period,’ on Independence Day (July 4) as it serves as the first release on her eponymous independent label.

Her inaugural offering post departing RCA and the Dr. Luke-driven Kemosabe Records in December 2023, ‘Period’ – the follow-up to May 2023’s ‘Gag Order‘ – serves as a return to form for the Dance Pop diva who’s spent many of the last years experimenting with more Rock and Folk-based sounds.

Introducing fans (affectionately called #Animals) to the 11-song set courtesy of singles ‘Joyride,’ ‘Boy Crazy,’ ‘Delusional,’ ‘Yippee-Ki-Yay,’ and ‘The One,’ the new LP boasts production contributions from big names like Nova Wav, Pink Slip, and Zhone.

It’s been nearly 3 months since Keri Hilson unveiled her long-awaited comeback album ‘We Need to Talk,’ but her dedicated fans (affectionately called the #KeriCrew) are still talking about the critically acclaimed set – especially its lead single ‘BAE.’
