Following their hilarious exchange on last week’s American Idol, reports surrounding a feud between Nicki Minaj and Jennifer Lopez have been doing the rounds this week- in time for the release of the former’s new LP.

Starting when Lopez playfully declined Minaj’s request to join the ‘Idol’ panel as a guest judge, some onlookers questioned how ‘playful’ the pair were actually being, citing the confused look Jennifer gave Nicki after her performance as the reason why.

Yesterday- for the first time since it happened- Nicki addressed the matter during an interview with Elvis Duran, also using the opportunity to confirm the birth of her own clothing line.

Kanye West is back.

The rapper, who has spent much of the last year touring with Jay-Z, served up a new cut today titled ‘Theraflu’.

An “interesting” effort to say the least, the Hitboy produced track sees ‘Ye profess his love for the talent-starved Kim Kardashian, slam her ex Kris Humphries, and salute Wiz Khalifa – the fiance of his ex ‘Amber Rose’.

Take a listen to the track, a collaboration with DJ Khaled, below…

Earlier this week a Burger King commercial starring Mary J. Blige premiered featuring the R&B singer singing about the joys of “chicken”. In the commercial, Blige gives the ‘Popeye’s Lady’ a run for her money by giving the best stereotypical African-American impersonation ever seen on primetime television.

Following its premature release, the promotional spot went viral prompting backlash from MJB fans embarrassed for the vocalist for attaching her name to something so beneath her.

In an effort to distance herself from the fast-food chain, the 41 year old ‘Queen of Hip-Hop Soul’ has released an official statement. See what she has to say after the jump and sound-off below!

‘4’

It’s a number that has become synonymous with Pop force Beyonce.

Indeed, beyond her Platinum-selling album of the same name, the number represents the day of her birthday, that of her mother, as well as that of husband Jay-Z. It also serves as the day in April when she tied the knot with the music mogul.

This year, though, it takes on a special significance in that it marks the 4th year of her marriage.

So as to celebrate the occasion (and in time for her upcoming new project *all will be revealed in time*), the singer is prepping a new Tumblr account – which feature intimate snaps of her and her hubby.
