DJ Khaled is driving full steam to the release of his 11th album ‘Father Of Asahd’ this Friday (May 17th). 

Unlike prior LPs, the set hasn’t preceded by a slew of singles and instead has been teased in earnest on social media.

Indeed, as of last week, the hitmaker revealed his label have been pushing for him to finally submit the project so as to make its retail deadline.

Its tracklist remains a mystery, but Khaled whipped up excitement moments ago with the album’s official cover – which, naturally, features little Asahd.

As for guests on the record, many names including the Cardi B, the late Nipsey Hussle, John Legend have all been confirmed.

It’s also expected that 2018’s ‘Top Off’ featuring Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Future will appear; as will ‘No Brainer’ with Justin Bieber, Quavo, and Chance The Rapper.

Fans of ‘Scandal’ star Kerry Washington know her storied resume has seen her join forces with comedian/singer Jamie Foxx more than once on film.

Now, alongside their two most famous screen sharing moments (2004’s Ray Charles biopic, ‘Ray,’ and later 2012’s ‘Django Unchained’) the duo is set to reunite for yet another project:  a “one night only” live remake of the groundbreaking 1970’s comedy, ‘The Jeffersons.’

Jussie Smollett may still be treading on uncertain ground in the wake of the legal fiasco surrounding his alleged attack, but he just received a major endorsement from his ‘Empire’ cast-mates.

As widely reported, the 36-year-old went from victim to suspect after reporting a January beatdown – one he insists was rooted in racism and homophobia.

An outpouring of support turned to question marks when Chicago PD eventually hit the actor with a 16 count indictment, rooted in the belief that he fabricated the entire incident.

Last month saw the case collapse, but word is that Smollett’s future on ‘Empire’ is anything but certain.

Now, on the evening his last episode of the current season airs, a letter of support co-signed by the likes of Taraji P. Henson and Terrance Howard has surfaced.

Addressed to the bosses of the hit show, its impetus is clear – they want Jussie to stay on.

The diva’s latest stop was Jimmy Kimmel Live, which broadcast from Las Vegas this week; an apt location given the star’s 16-year run on the Strip with two back-to-back mega-selling residencies.

This go round, though, she’s taking the show on the road and couldn’t be more excited.

Speaking with Kimmel, she explained that the trek will be her first US jaunt in over decade and will last a year – seemingly confirming that it will be going international.

She also revealed that the tour and her forthcoming album share the same name, which is lifted from a track on the hotly anticipated LP.
