It’s finally here!

The video for Chris Brown‘s ‘Love More’ premiered literally seconds ago. Serving as the latest single to be lifted from the singer’s ‘X’ LP, the cut features Young Money Mrs, Nicki Minaj.

Having previously collaborated on chart hit ‘Right By My Side’, does the pair’s latest offering up the ante? Watch and decide after the jump…

The time is nigh!

Just days separate Lady GaGa fans (and critics) from the debut of the video of her blazing new single ‘Applause’. Hence, so as to crank anticipation into overdrive ahead of Monday’s ‘Good Morning America’ reveal, the Pop force has unwrapped a new promo teaser for the Inez and Vinoodh directed clip.

Aptly designed as a movie poster, word has it the clip -like most GaGa efforts- will be a short film. Roll on Monday!

New music alert!

Nicki Minaj is wasting no time cooking up her third studio album. Indeed, since from wrapping up a controversial stint on American Idol and closing the campaign for latest project ‘The Re Up’ , the Young Money major has turned her attention to next LP.

Taking to Twitter today, hitmaker Pharrell Williams shared the above shot of himself and Minaj in the studio working on the as yet untitled set.

Currently riding high on the charts courtesy of production + guest slots Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’ and Robin Thicke’s ‘Blurred Lines’, it’ll be uber interesting to what the Neptunes star has cooked up for Onika. Especially in light of the femcee’s declaration that this record will move away from the candy-coated Pop and instead re-embrace the “harder” Hip-Hop sound that defined “mixtape Nicki”.

We’re excited…are you?

Get a taste of what they’ll be serving up after the jump…

The past few years have seen former B2k member Raz B‘s name riddled with negative press – from explosive clashes with former group members to allegations of childhood molestation against their manager Chris Stokes.

While most of the reports surrounding Raz have cooled since his relocation to China, last night brought with it news the singer was involved in yet another altercation when he reportedly tried to break up a fight that left him injured from a bottle attack.

The injuries sustained from said event have worsened leaving Raz in a comatose state on life support, new reports say.

Credited for introducing her once underground cause to the mainstream, Perez Hilton no doubt stands as an integral character in Lady GaGa‘s story, championing the star well before she came to the mainstream’s attention.

Alas, much like Rihanna‘s performance in ‘Battleship‘, things took a sharp turn for the worst when it emerged that the pair had gone from friends….to foes.

Now, as she continues to support and empower youth of all demographics, the star has revealed that she too remains a victim of bullying.

After seeing his verse on Big Sean‘s ‘Control’ spark outrage by many a Hip Hop never do well  staple, the last few days have seen Rappers from across the board take aim at Kendrick Lamar’s ‘King of New York’ claim.

Next in line? Papoose, firing shots at the LA native with a response some are billing the best to unearth in the last week.

Why all the fuss?

The good people of Belgium got more than they bargained for yesterday, when Hip Hop craftsman Eminem served the very first live performance of his new song ‘Survival’ live at their ever popular ‘Pukklepop’ Festival!

Released as part of the forthcoming ‘Call of Duty: Ghosts‘ package, the song will appear on the Rapper’s brand new album, sending fans into a frenzy when he surprised them with it at the sold out gig.

Check it out after the jump!

Jennifer Lopez is on the hunt for her next hit.

The diva, who is reportedly set to reprise her judging role on American Idol later this year, was snapped posing it up with hitmaker Sia in a Los Angeles recording studio. As many know, the songwriter is renown for her work on Rihanna‘s ‘Diamonds’, as well as a slew of other chart smashes.

Writing about her sessions with 43-year-old Jenny, Sia gushed:

Worked with jenny from the block yesterday. (@JLo !) what a charming, sweet, funny person. And she can really SING! Anyhoo. Super fun.

— sia furler (@Sia) August 7, 2013

***********

Interesting pairing and an entirely necessary one too, given JLo’s arguable over-reliance on RedOne in recent years.

Indeed, it appears La Lopez has gone back to the drawing-board after this Summer’s ‘Live It Up’ fizzled rather sizzled. Add to this the fact that the campaign for its parent album (the singer’s tenth) is nowhere to be seen despite a November release being teased as far back as May.

With the Idol platform seemingly back in the mix, it’s safe to say the Pitbull-assisted cut will be christened “a gift for the fans” in due course, with a new “lead” single commissioned once the show starts filming and/or airing. Got to love the spin!

In any case, we’re excited to see what the ladies cook up. Are you?

Now this is one we didn’t see coming.

Four years after his untimely passing, Michael Jackson returns to his fans via a new song named ‘Slave to the Rhythm‘, produced by Tricky Stewart and reportedly recorded by the ‘Liberian Girl’ over a decade before his death.

Today, that number has made its way to the net featuring contributions from Pop Prince Justin Bieber, who rocks the feel good as best he could.

Is it any good?
