While Victoria Monet fielded headline-grabbing criticism for simply being among the concert attendees at a recent stop of Chris Brown‘s hotly selling ‘11:11 Tour,’ songstress Jordin Sparks was greeted with similar judgment yet (ironically) for solely attending and performing on stage with him.

The ‘American Idol‘ alum sang her heart out from the audience while watching Brown sing their 2008 hit ‘No Air’ by his lonesome – a happening that skyrocketed Sparks’ name into trending status last week.

Capitalizing on the attention, the GRAMMY nominee used the moment to announce her new single ‘Remember.’

“Do you remember how you used know what I’m thinkin’? / Late night drives in the backseat, got my heart racin’ / Miss how it was when we fell in love / Can you remember (The time)? / I still remеmber (The time),” she sings on the Dem Jointz-produced cut.

Buoyed by a prominent interpolation of Michael Jackson‘s 1992 megahit ‘Remember the Time,’ look inside to get acquainted with the latest from Jordin.

Just days after learning her latest single, ‘Here We Go,’ had gone into the top 10 of Billboard R&B charts, Coco Jones is hoping to sweep some of that success on its follow-up: ‘Sweep It Up.’

Announced earlier this week, the tune comes as the second taste of new music expected to line her anxiously awaited debut album.

The challenge for music lovers to “match her freak” has lit an overdue fire in the career of Urban Pop stageblazer Tinashe.

Easily one of modern music’s most unsung songbirds, T has been grinding feverishly since first bursting onto the scene with the SchoolBoy Q-assisted ‘2 On‘ in 2014.

Collecting a legion of dedicated fans since, the now-31-year-old has mostly seen her efforts lauded by critics but not necessarily seen that fanfare mirrored commercially – that is, until TikTok helped launch her Ricky Reed-helmed tune ‘Nasty‘ into the viral stratosphere.

Going on to become her most successful solo tune yet, the song has undoubtedly created the biggest buzz T’s seen in a long while for a body of work – a set she’s christened ‘Quantum Baby.’

The conceptual sequel to 2023’s ‘BB/Ang3l,’ the 8-song affair features production contribution from notable names like Reed, DJ Camper, Nosaj Thing, and more.
