Ayra Starr and Kelly Rowland have unlocked a special performance video for their remix of ‘Bloody Samaritan.’

The flavorsome jam, in its solo form, served as the world’s introduction to the Nigerian-born starlet. And it’s proving to be the gift that keeps giving.

Ayra and Kelly’s collaborative incarnation of ‘Samaritan’ will appear on the incoming deluxe edition of her critically-acclaimed debut album ’19 & Dangerous’ (due October 14).

The 20-year-old said of working with the GRAMMY winner:

“I’ve always been a huge fan of Kelly Rowland and when this came up, I could barely keep in the excitement! While recording this, Kelly made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, something I really appreciate. She was super amazing.”

Azealia Banks is all sorts of renowned for sounding off with her opinions about everything – including her peers.

Even while shopping.

Case in point her weigh-in on the seemingly daily feuds erupting between many female rappers of late on social media.

Head below to see what Ms. Banks, who was shopping in Home Depot at the time, had to say…

Ari Lennox ushers in cuffing season with the video for her aptly titled new single ‘POF.’

Serving as a continuation of sorts from the ‘Hoodie’ visual, Lennox’s latest offering sees her lean into the title of the song (which is an acronym for ‘plenty of fish’) and its lyrical narrative about searching for “the one.”

Rapper Isaiah Rashad makes another appearance in the clip, which showcases the R&B songbird on a string of unsuccessful dates…until a unique encounter sets the wheels in motion for a dramatic twist.

‘POF’ is lifted from Lennox’s critically-acclaimed sophomore album ‘age/sex/location’ – which is also home to the Gold-certified ‘Pressure.’

Diddy is undeniably one of the most successful and revered figures to emerge from the Hip-Hip scene. However, equally undeniable is the narrative that has trailed said success. A narrative centered around payment – or the lack thereof – of artists he once championed.

Appearing on The Breakfast Club today to promote his many ventures (including a return to music with Love Records and single ‘Gotta Move On’), the mogul seized the moment to (attempt to) set the record straight about what he intimates is misconceptions perpetuated by disgruntled artists he once rocked with.
