Two of Africa’s most buzzed-about talents have teamed up for a rousing new collaboration.

Tyla and Ayra Starr have been blazing a trail on their respective journeys and now have joined forces for ‘Girl Next Door.’ 

Produced by P.Priime, the track sees the ladies warning their lovers to not leave for the ‘girl next door.’

Defined by pulsating production and butter-smooth vocals, the track is already magnetizing ample buzz.

Speaking on the collab, Tyla says:

“I absolutely loved working with Ayra Starr on our new single ‘Girl Next Door’. She’s such a talented artist and I feel like our energies really came together to create something special. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it!”

Summer Walker has amassed a loyal audience with her hard-hitting brand of R&B.

Lyric-driven and largely anchored in the lovelorn, the tracks that have catapulted the star to seismic heights.

On the live circuit, Walker’s presence has been a subject of much debate.

Because it’s become somewhat trademark for her performance to skew so demure to the extent that some have branded them unsatisfactory.

For others, it’s just “Summer.”

After going viral for a less-than-animated showing at the Lovers & Friends Festival in Las Vegas and dancing up a storm with new boo Lil Meech today on social media, Walker is clapping back at her ciritcs.

See what she had to say after the jump…

Ciara continues to level up the production value of her latest single, ‘Da Girls.’

After watching the sizzling cut’s original solo incarnation earn critical acclaim from her loyal fan base, affectionately called the #CSquad, upon its March 24 release, she spruced the tune up weeks later with a remix featuring Lola Brooke and Lady London.

Now, the GRAMMY winner has tapped songwriter-producer Derrick Milano to decelerate the tempo with an ‘R&B Slow Mix.’

“This for the girls all around the world that don’t need no man but got one / Not to mention she got money, too,” Milano sings on the female empowerment anthem.

Will the third time be the charm and help ‘Da Girls’ crack the Hot 100? Hop inside to listen and tell us.

Over 5 years have separated fans of multi-hyphenate diva Janelle Monae from her last album, 2018’s ‘Dirty Computer,’ but now the GRAMMY-nominated songstress is ready to end the wait by uploading a new album to streaming services.

Titled ‘Age of Pleasure,’ the announcement of the June 9-due set was supercharged by the unveiling of the music video for its housed single ‘Lipstick Lover.’

“All the songs were written from such an honest space,” she recently said of the forthcoming project. “I’ve had my age of depression. I’ve had my age of anxiety. I’ve had my age of struggle. And again, it’s not like life is pleasurable every single day, but I think I have actively just sought out. How do I create a space for myself? How do I redirect my mind on how I’m thinking about things? How do I realize that right now, in this present moment, moments that we’ll never get back, this is where you need to find your pleasure? This is your moment.”

An ode to the sensuality of women, the ‘Lipstick’ video will certainly get lips moving as it highlights the openly queer star’s appreciation of the beauty of a few female co-stars.

Definitely not one for the kiddies, hop inside to see Monae’s latest stunning creation.

Thanks to an explosive response on Tik Tok over the last few months, Baby Tate’s 2016 recording ‘Hey Mickey!’ has not only been revived but given a new set of legs thanks to the addition of GRAMMY-nominated rapstress Saweetie.

“Ayy, Mickey, maybe I could be your Minnie (Uh-huh), I’m about my cheddar, but I never been no snitchey, zip them lippy’s/ Flexin’ all that cash, but you acting like a kiddie, this ain’t Disney, real boss b**ch, leave a n**ga quick,” the ‘Tap In’ hitmaker spits on the Dead Head-produced bop that features a prominent sample of Toni Basil‘s 1982 signature hit ‘Mickey.’
