It’s been a week since Destiny’s Child‘s epic reunion at the Super Bowl Half-Time extravaganza, yet the masses are still buzzing about the trio’s showing. And understandably so.

It’s been nine years since Beyonce, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams released their last studio album ‘Destiny Fulfilled’, however it’s clear they still have “it” in abundance. Last Sunday’s performance relayed this in earnest, but new backstage footage following their showing re-affirms it.

Watch the group in action after the jump…

Melanie‘s done it again.

Extending her lead as one of her genre’s strongest competitors (in all respects), the soulful starlet delivers a moving video for her single ‘Wrong Side Of A Love Song’ tonight, hours before she arrives at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards.

If you’re unfamiliar with Melanie’s work, we seriously recommend you watch the video and take the time to listen to her music- which would be far more popular if it was given the financial backing both she and her talent deserve.

In epic credit to her handlers, Jennifer Hudson‘s star has shone brighter with each year since her Oscar winning turn in ‘Dreamgirls’ seven years ago.

Ironically, though, this has been in parallel to the unremarkable performance of not one, but two studio albums on the charts. The singer’s 2008’s self-titled managed to go Gold, yet it’s follow-up, 2011’s ‘I Remember Me’, failed to connect with listeners and to-date has only sold 370,000 in the US.  Hoping to right those wrongs, the great Clive Davis has taken the helm of Hudson’s third project.

Having orchestrated much of the late Whitney Houston‘s success, can the industry icon have a similar effect on a career in much need of it? Flip the hood to read his plans for Hudson’s new album in an exclusive interview with Billboard….
