After several swings at the bat it appears Iggy Azalea‘s finally hit a home run with her latest single, ‘Sally Walker.’ 

Released just Friday (March 15), the tune walked to the top of real-time iTunes Rap charts, amassed a whopping 17 million views on Youtube (as of time reported), and even scored over a million spins on Spotify (as we reported here).  And, while most would call it a comeback considering how many times the saucy Aussie’s been counted out in the past, Azalea’s joined her fans (affectionately called #Azaleans) in calling out the streaming giant out for discrimination.

Alleging the absence of “payola” being the reason Spotify hasn’t given the J. White-produced cut it’s due shine on the platform, look inside for the 28-year-old’s rant against the leader in streaming:

Nearly three years after taking a seat atop album charts with her breakthrough opus, ‘Seat at the Table,’ singer/songwriter Solange introduced fans to its highly anticipated follow-up, ‘When I Get Home.’

Released with little warning on March 1 (click here to read more), the 19-track set – which features Playboi Carti, Tyler the Creator, Gucci Mane, and more – may have been billed a critical polarizer among fans but that didn’t stop them from rushing in droves to stream and purchase it.  Just a day after its debut the LP soared to the top of iTunes’ sales tally (as we reported here).

Now, industry analysts have lifted their first official prediction for how the album will fare over the course of its entire inaugural sales week.  Curious to see how ‘Home’ is expected to stack up against ‘Table’s first week sales of 72,000?  Find out inside:

Good things come to those who wait it seems.

For, after a serial delay, February 22nd brought with it the long-awaited arrival of Offset‘s debut solo album, ‘Father of 4’ (click here to stream).  Lined with high profile features from the likes of Cardi B, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, J. Cole, Quavo, and more, the set zoomed to #2 on iTunes sales charts just hours after its unveiling (blocked from the top by Lady Gaga‘s ‘A Star is Born’ soundtrack).

Yet, its saving grace – much like the solo efforts of his Migos brothers Quavo and Takeoff – has come from the streaming realm.  So much so, industry analysts predict the project will outpace the competition (including Gaga and her post-Academy Award acclaim) for next week’s top spot on the Billboard 200.

To ensure such, Offset has unveiled a cinematic video for the album’s tune, ‘Quarter Milli.’  Tapping Gucci Mane to assist, the clip – set in the 1920s – sees the duo as old school gangsters who’ve band together to pull of a bank heist before jetting off into the sunset with a quarter milli in cash.
