Cardi B fans, affectionately called #BardiGang, know she doesn’t hesitate to show love to the big hits of other artists.

And while she’s collected many awards for her Rap skills (often to historic measure), the 29-year-old has never been shy about flexing her singing as well – even offering interesting a capella renditions of Beyonce‘s ‘Love on Top’ and ‘Break My Soul,’ Normani‘s ‘Motivation,’ Selena‘s ‘Como La Flor,’ and more over the years.

More recently she took to social media to demonstrate her vocal dexterity by tackling ‘When I See U,’ the signature tune of fellow GRAMMY winner Fantasia.

Once the ‘American Idol’ alum got wind of Cardi’s adventurous take on the 2006 smash, she suggested the two find time to make a new hit of their own.

After soliciting Ciara to contribute to her chart-topping latest album, ‘Still Over It’ diva Summer Walker made her way over to the forthcoming LP of her fellow Atlanta-born R&B star to return the favor.

Their latest tag-team, ‘Better Thangs,’ is set to be listed on CiCi’s yet-titled forthcoming effort and follow the singer’s high octane cut, ‘Jump’ (which jumped on to screens earlier this year).

Surprising her faithful fans with an unexpected drop Wednesday (September 28), ‘Thangs’ landed on digital platforms a day early – just enough time to build ample buzz for the release of its supporting music video two days later.

With adulation received from the likes of Whitney Houston, Beyonce, The Clark Sisters, Kirk Franklin, and some of the biggest names in music over the years, Kim Burrell was easily one of Gospel music’s most revered voices.

That was, until a sermon she preached in late 2016 went viral for featuring language many deemed homophobic.

Leading to an unceremonious fallout (see: dropped from radio and TV shows, slammed by celebrities, uninvited from award shows, etc.), the damage done to the legendary diva’s career has seemed irreparable – a status she waxed honest about on the ‘Tamron Hall Show’ Thursday (September 29).

While dishing with the daytime hostess, Kim not only discussed the backlash from that incident (including behind the scenes drama with her former longtime friend Yolanda Adams) but also defended herself against more recent drama from yet another controversial sermon.

Christina Aguilera‘s already overflowing awards’ mantel welcomed a new addition Thursday (September 29) as the Pop diva was on hand at the 2022 Billboard Latin Music Awards to accept the Spirit of Hope Award.

Established in 1996 in memory of Tejano Music Queen Selena Quintanilla, the award honors the humanitarian and philanthropic efforts of artists who are making impacts in- and outside of the music industry.

When not rocking the stage with a spirited live rendition of ‘La Reina,’ a tune found aboard her Spanish-language album ‘Aguilera,’ the 41-year-old was being presented the trophy by Latin music sensations (and her previous collaborators) Ozuna and Becky G.

Dressed in a black latex gown with her hair in braids, look inside to see how Aguilera blew the roof off the Watsco Center in Miami, Florida Thursday.

Tory Lanez may have seen the last two years of his career dominate headlines more for personal and legal drama than his professional endeavors, but that hasn’t stopped the Canadian rapper from trying to get the ears of the masses on his music.

Hot on the promo trail in support of the September 30 release of his new album, ‘Sorry 4 What,’ Lanez drove over to ‘The Breakfast Club’ Thursday morning (September 29) to dish with the radio show’s resident hosts about the project and other recent happenings.

But when the conversation tipped over to more controversial topics, Lanez steered it back to his music – ultimately refusing to talk about his headline-grabbing (alleged) altercation with singer August Alsina that left the “entangled” star bruised and bloody.

Similarly, when quizzed about his ongoing legal spat with Megan Thee Stallion over reports he shot her in the foot, Tory pressed back to redirect the focus of the discussion on his forthcoming LP.

An awkward watch for sure, look inside to see highlights from the nearly hourlong chat.

It’s been nearly five months since Future topped the Billboard 200 with his latest album, ‘I Never LIked You,’ but that doesn’t mean the GRAMMY-winning rapper has abandoned promotion of the hits-filled project.

His latest supportive effort came courtesy of a visit to ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ Wednesday (September 28) when he offered quite the creative live take on his LP’s housed hit, ‘Love You Better.’

First appearing to be taking part in an interview, Future then started rapping the lyrics to the track (which has so far peaked at No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100).

Look inside to see the unique action if you missed it when it first aired.
