Genius is genius, says music critics at highly revered publications TiME, Rolling Stones, and Entertainment Weekly.  For, as the ‘year-end’ tallies come rolling in, the aforementioned three have unanimously championed Kanye West‘s 2013 release ‘Yeezus’ as the album of the year.

Beating out the likes of Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, and mentor Jay Z, the news comes just as fans complained of the Recording Academy’s overlook of the critically acclaimed set only giving it 2 nominations (“New Slaves” for Best Rap Song and “Yeezus” for Best Rap Album).

Elsewhere on the list, you can spot Katy Perry, Rihanna, Lorde, and more.  Ready to sound off?

With a new single soaring at radio and her stock higher than ever, Kelly Rowland‘s new album title ‘Talk A Good Game’ couldn’t be more apt.

As earlier reported, Rihanna features in the March issue of Rolling Stone magazine. And while her cover shoot is making headlines, her interview inside is set to make many more.

For, with her new album ‘Unapologetic’ under-performing (selling in three months what her rivals sell first week), the model has reached into her trusty bag of tricks to ignite interest.

However, this time the Bajan beauty dug that much deeper – opening all the way up about her rekindled relationship with Chris Brown. So willing to discuss the romance, which she sings is ‘Nobody’s Business’, she spent most of the interview talking about it.

Easily the best song Cher Lloyd has recorded to date, ‘With Ur Love’ is finally receiving the US single treatment.

Initially announced as the follow-up to American breakout hit ‘Want You Back’, the track was bumped in favour of the so-so ‘Oath’ which did all of nothing on the charts.

Already a Top 5 hit in the UK upon its initial release in 2011 (when it served as the second single from the 19 year old’s debut album ‘Sticks + Stones’), the Shellback produced cut has been retooled for its latest US roll-out. Indeed, erased is first feature Mike Posner, who is replaced by Juicy J (from Three Six Mafia).
