Teen pin-ups they may be, yet Mindless Behavior clearly have a work ethic well beyond their years.

For much of the year, the Urban-Pop quad have been on a non-stop promo push for their sophomore effort ‘All Around The World’. Supported by a 3D movie and an upcoming tour, the video for the project’s latest single ‘Used To Be’ premiered moments ago.

Interestingly shot in a Californian mansion once owned by Beyonce and Jay-Z (who are referenced in the song), the clip sees Ray Ray, Roc Royal, Princeton, and Prodigy get their grown on.

Seven days separate Kelly Rowland fans from the diva’s hotly anticipated new album ‘Talk A Good Game’.

Preceded by singles ‘Kisses Down Low’ and the jaw-dropping ‘Dirty Laundry’, all signs point to the LP living up to its sassy billing.

Already hailed as one of the most noteworthy R&B releases this year, you can now sample what else the project will be serving up come June 18th. Flip the hood to preview the album in its entirety and let us know if Ms. Kelly will be getting your coins next Tuesday!

September may bring with it part 2 of Justin Timberlake‘s LP series ‘The 20/20 Experience’, yet the Pop maestro isn’t wrapping up its predecessor’s campaign just yet.

The Timbaland produced ‘Tunnel Vision’ has been selected as the project’s third (and likely last) single. Peep its official artwork above.

In tandem with the song’s roll-out, the 32-year-old will embark on a sell-out global trek with Jay-Z  christened the ‘Legends Of The Summer Tour’. Thereafter, he will commence touring solo in October  support of part 2’s arrival on September 30th.

Granted we find the cut rather “blah” and would have much preferred ‘Let The Groove In’ as receiver of the single treatment, anything JT seems to touch these days turns to Gold. Or should we say Platinum. Double Platinum, if we’re speaking factually. Put simply, at this point, he could record himself in the bathroom for three minutes and it’d likely hit top ten. Quite the position to be in. More power to him.

Take a listen to ‘Tunnel Vision’ after the jump…

All roads lead to next Tuesday for R&B diva Kelly Rowland.

The singer’s hotly anticipated fourth studio album ‘Talk A Good Game’ struts into stores on the said date. And while ample buzz has been whipped up courtesy of preceding singles ‘Kisses Down Low’ and ‘Dirty Laundry’, Ms. Kelly keeps the momentum going with the premiere of album cut ‘Gone’.

Featuring a guest spot from Wiz Khalifa, the Harmony produced number – which samples Joni Mitchell’s ‘Big Yellow Taxi’ (the same track Janet Jackson drew on for 97’s ‘Got Till It’s Gone’–  awaits after the jump…

And it begins!

Alexandra Burke makes her eagerly awaited American debut tonight in New York City.

The Platinum-selling stage blazer will join Mary J Blige,  Erykah Badu, Mary Mary, and Patti LaBelle at a commemorative concert, christened the Apollo Spring Gala, to honor Chaka Khan‘s 40-years in the music industry.

A perfectionist of a performer, Burke has called on Beyonce’s right-hand man Jaquel Knight to help piece together what we’re hearing will be a must-see showing.

It goes without saying that the high-profile slot is the best of launches for the 24-year-old who is  -as many had hoped – embracing a more soulful sound for her 3rd studio album (which will dub as her US debut).  The X Factor graduate recently relocated to the States after signing a mega-management deal with industry force Kevin Liles – the former Def Jam executive who propelled the careers of Jay-Z and Kanye West into the stratosphere. More recent years have seen Liles mould Trey Songz into the Urban force he is today. Needless to say, it seems he and his team are working their magic with our girl.

After years of developing good faith with her audience, this year saw Beyonce announce the launch of her first world tour in four years…without the aid of new material.

Indeed, thanks to her credentials as an entertainer and the value for money audiences across the globe knew the tour would serve up, the star has now sold out 65 arena dates long before the world can expect to receive the show’s supporting album.

Now, thanks to the aforementioned good faith she’s garnered with consumers, the tour has now generated enough capital to storm the Hot Tour’s tally!

Kanye West is weighing in again…but this time, it’s on himself.

Iggy Azalea has been building quite the buzz with new single ‘Bounce’ – thanks largely to its Bollywood-inspired video.

Jury’s out on whether the LP will live up to its ambitious title; yet what is certain is that you can get a behind the scenes look at its newest visual offering after the jump…

Was it any good?

While some singers chase hits, Fantasia Barrino is building a career. Much like her idol Patti Labelle, the 28-year-old seems to understand that fearless versatility is the core component of a long-lasting and successful career.

Case, point, her recent mini-tour with Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli.

A powerhouse in her own right, the American Idol star caused vocal fireworks when she and Bocelli performed ‘When I Fall In Love’ together at the Denver stop of the trek.

Watch the duo soar with their dynamic duet below…
