The singer suggested that because of how she had changed that he doesn’t “get down with her anymore”. However, Lloyd has decided to issue a public apology regarding his statements.

John Legend and The Roots have teamed up on a politically charged new album called ‘Wake Up!’. The record, which will hit stores on September 21st, will feature contributions from Melanie Fiona and Common as well as a cover of Marvin Gaye’s ‘Wholy Holy’.

There appears to be no stopping Katy Perry; the Pop starlet’s smash ‘California Gurls’, this week, extends its #1 reign on the Billboard Hot 100 to six (consecutive) weeks.

The impressive feat has seen Perry fend off competition from Eminem and Runway Rihanna‘s ‘Love The Way You Lie’ – which has had to settle for the #2 spot on the chart for three weeks in a row now. (Side note: Am I the only one who considers ‘Love The Way You Lie’ uber overrated anyway?)

Other notable Hot 100 movements include Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Your Love’ – which jumps #23-#18,  Ciara‘s ‘Ride’ – which climbs #50-#45, and Ne-Yo, who’s ‘Beautiful Monster’ ascends #60-#56.

Peep Kelly Rowland posing it up for SWRV Music Choice recently. As ever, the Grammy winner looks stunning!

Reiterating our previous report; the release of her hotly anticipated new album has been re-scheduled. Initially set for a September release, Rowland confirmed that the LP – her 3rd – will instead be arriving in stores ‘this Fall’, as she’s still recording with hitmaker Tricky Stewart. There’s also some talk about the album no longer being self-titled. So,  as you can see, much going on in the world of Ms. Rowland.

Meanwhile, the album’s lead US single, ‘Grown Woman’, is poised to be a smash – if its ever-rising Urban airplay is anything to go by. Go Kelly!
