Rihanna‘s ‘Talk That Talk’ may not be charting that chart, but that hasn’t stopped the model from churning out more singles from the set.

The next to be lifted from Fenty’s stack of audio-Mozzarella? ‘Where Have You Been’ – the cover of which was unmasked moments ago.

Without doubt or confusion, ‘Where’ is easily one of the best single choices Camp RiRi could have conjured up in some time. Whether she’ll be able to deliver with the all-important video (which was shot recently) will be interesting to see. Indeed, such a pulsating song calls for more than crotch grabs and lazy struts. She’s 24, not 64 – here’s hoping she finally serves up a performance  that reflects that.

As earlier reported, ex-Destiny’s Child singer LaTavia Roberson is breaking her silence.

It’s been 12 years since Roberson and LeToya Luckett were sensationally ousted from the Multi-Platinum outfit. And it’s been just as long since she’s publicly talked about the situation – in detail.

That all changed when the 30 year old spoke to our friends over at Kempire Radio.

The candid chat saw no topic off-limits. Indeed, addressed were her true thoughts on the band’s former manager Mathew Knowles, her current relationship with Beyonce, her personal demons, what she’s been up to since the break-up, and much much more.

Not just an insightful listen. It’s an essential listen!

It seems it’s not just the critics who recognise the wealth of talent swirling in Janelle Monae. For, the dynamo performer was invited to rock out at The White House as part of President Obama‘s Easter celebrations.

After stampeding the charts with ‘Elephant’ last month, Alexandra Burke roars back with new single ‘Let It Go’ – the video for which she shot this week.

Much like a certain Dolly Parton, Madonna‘s sales have always been top heavy.

Starting off impressive in their first week, the ‘Material Girl’s LP’s find themselves sliding down the chart by its second week, much to dismay of her staunchest fans.

However, her latest effort ‘MDNA‘ has found itself becoming the mother of all disappointments.

As reported here, sexy is undoubtedly the vibe ‘Fallin’ diva Alicia Keys was giving in the latest VIBE magazine issue.  Set to front the urban publication’s 2nd annual ‘Global Issue’, it’s safe to say Mrs. Beatz was turning up the heat in more ways than one for the mag – which boasts her first ‘real’ interview in quite some time.

While fans anxiously await their first taste of what she’s been cooking up in the studio, they can find her on VIBE’s April/May issue, set to hit newsstands on April 16th.  Get into the visuals below (courtesy of ILoveMusicPop):

‘One Man’ maestro Tank is certainly not playing this time around.  Readying faithful fans for his next LP ‘This Is How I Feel’, the crooner felt it appropriate to enlist another R&B heartbreaker Chris Brown for the track ‘Lonely’.

The latter, as fans know, is preparing ‘Fortune’ – the follow-up to his critically/commercially acclaimed 2011 LP ‘F.A.M.E.’.  Now it seems to be in the good fortune of both soulful crooners that they would collab over this silky R&B groove.

Reuniting after their fan praised features on Brown’s ‘F*ck The City Up’, get into the new new after the jump:

As Usher puts the finishes touches to his eagerly awaited LP ‘Looking For Me’, the hitmaker has revealed that he is also honing something else – his body.

Fresh from a work-out, the lean R&B crooner tweeted the fruits of his hard gym labour – much to the delight of of his adorning fans.

Having heard much of the new LP, it’s fair to say he’s been putting just as much time into making a chart comeback; one which sounds poised to appease both his fans and fiercest critics.

In any case, peep another pic after the jump…

Chris Brown is in the giving mood.
