McMusic vendor Rihanna continues to drip-feed snaps from her ‘Where Have You Been’ video – the latest of which was unwrapped just moments ago.

For a clip we hear is supposedly “bananas”, the pics thus far have been underwhelming to say the least. We can only hope the video itself delivers, given how solid the song is. Although, given the model’s track-record, we’d be foolish to hold our breath. Time will tell, ay?

Just as famed for the feud as they are for their stand out styles, both Rappers have benefited from the spat, using each other to dominate conversation and debate.

Now, Azalea has weighed in on the matter, comparing her rival to legendary MC Kanye West.

In an era where record deals are becoming scarcer and scarcer, there’s something to be said when hitmakers Ne-Yo and Pharrell Williams both want to sign you.

Such was the predicament 19 year old Conor Maynard found himself in before eventually inking a lucrative deal with EMI Music last year.

Discovered online, the Brighton-bred star has seen his buzz boom; with his Twitter following topping the 160,000 mark and the Youtube views on the video for debut single ‘Can’t Say No’ sitting at over 4 million. All this prior to actually releasing any material.

Impressive? Yes! Surprising? No so much. For, Maynard presents quite the compelling “package”. Indeed, his sound skillfully and genuinely fuses “Pop” and “Urban” in a way many acts beyond his age are still striving to achieve.

Naturally, Maynard’s look and artistic direction have seen comparisons to a certain Justin Bieber drawn – especially with the latter now flirting with a harder/Urban sound. And they’re comparisons we’re sure will only intensify when Maynard hits the US in May.

However, pending then, watch the budding star justify his buzz on That Grape Juice’s The Splash.  Peep his performance of ‘Can’t Say No’ above and the track’s official video below. Get familiar with the name and face, as you’ll be seeing much more of it!
