Mindless Behavior indeed.

Months after announcing a major change to their line-up, R&B boy band Mindless Behavior find themselves in troubled waters today, following their release of unsettling video footage.

Yes, booting their chances of ever being embraced by mainstream media is group member Roc Royal, who can be seen launching a vicious assault on what appears to be an elderly gentlemen, kicking and punching his victim, stopped only by a friend who also appears in the 15 second clip.

‘Clueless’ actress Stacey Dash may have liked Kanye West enough to star in his ‘All Falls Down’ visual back in 2004, but a decade later it would seem things have changed…a great deal.

The problem? West’s most recent rant which saw him liken being hounded by the paparazzi to being raped.

Days later, after catching wind of his comments, Dash used the platform she enjoys on ‘Fox News’ to slam the rapper’s insensitive remarks, suggesting that he take a trip to prison so “he’ll know what rape is.”

Her new album may be a ‘4 Letter Word‘, but Elle Varner has only one thing on her mind right now…and that’s her man.

Indeed, on the album’s lead single ‘Don’t Wanna Dance’, the ‘I Don’t Care‘ singer cares little for the typical night out with her girls and longs to be with her loved one instead, pouring out her feelings with a little help from A$AP Ferg.

In the mood for new Elle?

It’s safe to say 2014’s been quite the year for Hip Hop singer Future!

From welcoming the arrival of his latest child to planning his first wedding with R&B chanteuse Ciara, to say the star has been busy would be an understatement.

Has that stopped him from delivering the goods on a music tip? No, and today saw him prove himself to be quite the multi-tasker when he took time out of wedding planning to release ‘Rock Star’, featuring Nicki Minaj.

Usher may still be searching for traction with his new releases of late, but that hasn’t stopped the superstar from booking major stages left and right.

The news alone of Jessie J‘s teaming with Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande sent the net into overdrive last month.

Four years have separated the world from a new Keri Hilson album, with her time away seeing her sit on R&B’s bench while the likes of Beyonce, Ciara, Rihanna and Nicki Minaj scored multiple wins in their respective games.

Now it would seem Ms.Keri is ready to return, teasing the release of a brand new album filled with “dreamy” new songs!

She acts.

She models.

Seriously, is there anything Pop sensation Rita Ora can’t do? As you figure that one out, why not join the star in welcoming the arrival of shots pulled from her Roberto Cavalli Autumn/Winter 2015 campaign!

Unlocked today, the snaps come courtesy of Francesco Carrozzini while her arrangement with Cavalli will no doubt be used to bring her plans to dominate the US charts to fruition, months before the release of her debut LP in the country!

On a singles tip, very few have enjoyed a run half as impressive as Jason Derulo‘s.

However, the fact remains that when it comes to albums, the entertainer is one of the lowest selling acts of all time, with his sales still yet to cross the 1 million unit mark in the US even when sales from all three of his LPs are combined.

Could this be the reason ‘BET’ is yet to embrace the well behaved star?

That may be the question many of his fans ask themselves today, after he openly addressed the network’s interesting decision not to celebrate his ‘Hot 100‘ successes by inviting him to perform at this year’s ceremony…while showing love to some of his more controversial rivals.

Why he is “almost done” with the network?

So, when fans can their hands on the release?

For most R&B staples, nabbing opening numbers between the 50 to 65,000 units mark has become the unfortunate norm.

So, you can imagine how delighted fans of ‘Trigga’ performer Trey Songz are today, now that his new LP has impacted the ‘Billboard 200′ with sales of over 100,000 units!

Fifth Harmony waste no time pushing their latest single ‘Boss’, flinging its music video to the masses days after releasing the sassy number!

The thing is, while we’re completely behind the ladies’ “pro-girl” approach, we can’t say their new sound is the direction they should be heading in, not helped by a video which does very little to appease their pre-teen audience.

For, as tempting as “spicing it up” may seem to Pop princesses hoping to break new ground, one really should get in where they can fit in, playing it safe until they’ve garnered a fan base big enough to carry them should they then decide to switch it up.

Why we worry ‘Harmony’ are getting it terribly wrong?
