Sexyy Red has Billboard perusers seeing red thanks to the out-of-the-box success of her latest single ‘Skeeyee.’

Officially unveiled June 9 as part of her sophomore EP, ‘Hood Hottest Princess,’ the scorching, Tay Keith-produced track caught fire on TikTok in the months following its release and finally blazed a course to the Hot 100.

In fact, its success on the video-based app was so pervasive the Music Bible crowned the ‘Hood Princess’ the first to sit on the throne of an entire new chart.

With ‘Fine Ho, Stay,’ the highly anticipated sophomore album from Southern Rap princess Flo Milli, getting closer to its delivery date, the 23-year-old has lifted the lid on yet another taste from the tracklist: ‘Chocolate Rain.‘

“Oh, b-tch, behave for your mama-ma / Come taste this wave, cocoa, na-na-na (Ha, ha, ha) / Go insane, I go, “La-la-la” / Make this chocolate rain fall like wat-ta-ta,” she raps on the Young Fyre-produced track.

Coming just weeks after the unveiling of the equally sweet ‘Fruit Loop’ and ‘Hot Box,’ get a taste of ‘Chocolate’ inside.

To say the reunion of Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado sent music lovers into a frenzy would be an understatement.

After ample teasing about the once-mystery tune in July, Timbo followed in August with official news he had reunited with Timberlake and Furtado for the new song ‘Keep Going Up’ – their first offering as a trio since hitting #1 on the Hot 100 with the smash hit ‘Give It To Me’ in 2007.

Believed to be the first single from Tim’s forthcoming solo project, ‘Keep Going Up’ seems poised to live up to its namesake if its opening on this week’s main hitlist is any suggestion.

Ahead of the release of the 22-track deluxe edition of her latest Billboard 200 top 10 album, ‘Chemistry,’ on September 22, GRAMMY & EMMY-winning diva Kelly Clarkson is giving fans a taste of what to expect from the expanded set with new song ‘Roses.’

“It’s too late for roses, they’ll die in a day / You can’t put a Band-Aid on the way that we’re breakin’ / It’s too late for diamonds, they all come with chains / So don’t waste your money on it, we can’t be saved,” she sings on the chorus of the Jesse Shatkin-produced cut.

As is no uncommon feat, the week’s top Hot 100 debut was deliverd by Rap royal Nicki Minaj.

Coming courtesy of the ‘Last Time I Saw You,’ the second single from her forthcoming album ‘Pink Friday 2‘ (slated for digital shelves November 17), Nicki is printed at #23 with the ATL Jacob-produced tune – an entry that marked her record-extending 133rd appearance on the hitlist and 71st top 40 hit.

In fact, the only female act to boast more top 40 hits is Taylor Swift (119).

While her beloved fans, affectionately called #Barbz, were toasting that win, Minaj – who pulled double duty on this week’s MTV VMAs as host and performer – gave them more to celebrate with the unveiling of another ‘Pink Friday 2’ cut: ‘Big Difference.’

Baby Tate may be a proud Atlanta peach, but that hasn’t stopped the rising rapstress from hopping on the wave of Jersey club beats.

Her latest single, aptly titled ‘Jersey,’ comes as a rap-sung sonic ode to the Garden State’s signature sound while conceptually the cut is lined with lambasting lyrics about losing love.

“Damn, we coulda really had a ball,” she says over a Sam Homaee-produced instrumental. “Painted me a picture, but I saw / You only wanted the drawers.”

Travel inside to catch Tate “in the middle of New Jersey cryin’ in the club” in the tune’s official visualizer.

Halle Berry is making headlines for keeping it all the way real about Drake‘s latest single, ‘Slime You Out.’

One of many eagerly awaited tracks set to line the hitmaker’s forthcoming studio album, ‘For All the Dogs‘ (due on digital shelves September 22), the SZA-assisted track left eyes popped out after a peek at its official cover artwork which features the Academy Award-winning actress getting ceremoniously slimed at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards.

And while award show moment was done in good fun, Berry wasn’t exactly laughing when she copped a gander at the imagery.

In a shocking clip that has surfaced online, Kenneth Petty – husband of Rap star Nicki Minaj – is seen taking fiery aim at Offset – husband of Cardi B.

As of writing, it’s not clear what ignited the war of words, however, the clips appear to show Petty and his crew stationed outside of what they appear to suggest was the Migos star’s hotel.

Together with a group of cohorts, Petty can be seen and heard saying “plan that vacation, you gonna be planning your funeral p**y!” 

He added: “my ear always to the street…let’s play.”

Quavo‘s 2023-released sophomore solo album, ‘Rocket Power,’ may not have taken off the way its predecessor (2018’s ‘Quavo Huncho‘) did on the Billboard 200, but that certainly hasn’t acted as a deterrent for the Migos star’s promotional strategy.

Having already gifted the video treatment to the LP’s cuts ‘Greatness,’ ‘Hold Me,’ ‘Disciples,’ ’11:11,’ and the Future-assisted ‘Turn Yo Clic Up,’ the GRAMMY nominee adds another clip to his growing videography: ‘Galaxy.’

“This the feeling when I get when I cop the Mercedes and I wanna splurge on my lady,” raps Quavo on the Alex Lustig-produced track. “Hundred racks and I got it all cash and I came out the trap and they look at me crazy.”

Sexyy Red may have seen the solo version of ‘Hellcats SRTs‘ crowned a fan favorite on ‘Hood Hottest Princess‘ (her June-released sophomore mixtape), but its Lil Durk-assisted remix is poised to give the cut just the push needed to ride onto the Hot 100.

“Fifty-fifty, split my bill with who? Don’t play with my lil’ b-tch/ I got booster b-tches, don’t stеal Amiri, they keep a Nike Tech,” adds Durk to the Shawn Ferrari-produced track. “Glo ain’t link with Doodiе, but I know Sexyy want one night with Threat.”

Unveiled Friday (September 15) alongside a Jerry Productions-helmed music video, zoom inside to see Red and Durk do what they do best.
