Missed last night’s airing of ‘Saturday Night Live‘?

Not to worry, we’ve got you covered. For, in what really is a ‘must see’, Justin Timberlake touched down to wow its audience with fresh performances in support of his fruitful ‘The 20/20 Experience’ era.

Was he any good?

No…he was spectacular- rocking the show with electrifying servings of ‘Only When I Walk’ and ‘Pair of Wings.’

With 850 radio stations in the US, radio station group owner Clear Channel Communications can boast of reaching an audience of 110 million people per week.

So, with this in mind, it’s no wonder many an entertainer seeks to score the full support of the company when launching releases, hoping to garner as much as ‘play’ as possible on its stations and reach the audiences they need to guarantee noteworthy sales.

Now, in response to its surprise release, the organisation’s Entertainment Enterprises president has weighed in on Beyonce‘s new album, and how he thinks its numbers will fare on his formats.

R&B heroin.

With material that’s seen her win over the support of critics and music buyers alike, Sevyn Streeter can now boast of being part of an elite group of Contemporary R&B acts able to pose a serious threat to her Pop counterparts.

Think we’re exaggerating?

Well, tell that to Top 30 position held by her new single ‘It Won’t Stop’, its #1 spot on the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop airplay chart and then Top 10 glory scored by her new EP ‘Call Me Crazy, But…’ on iTunes USA.

Yes, after years of triers, it would seem the industry has finally given birth to an R&B belle with the talent, star power and resources to fly the genre’s flag in realms oft closed off to its staples.

So, why so many have fallen head over heels with the beauty? Watch her dish on the EP when we caught up with her last week…above!

Your thoughts?

As fans know, Target may have been a huge celebrator of pop superstar Beyonce‘s ‘4’ album, but it’s self titled follow-up cannot boast the same.  In a well-publicized decision, the huge retailer opted against carrying the singer’s 5th album citing unfair ‘preferential treatment’ to Itunes (which exclusively carried the digital version of the album upon its December 13th surprised release).

Now, in another blow to the album, the largest online retailer Amazon has also joined the boycott against Columbia and Sony by refusing to carry the physical copy of the album on its online shelves.

As many of Drake rivals would even confirm, the Canadian native is easily one of Hip-Hop’s most successful talents.

Naturally, such status brings with it ample praise and critique in equal measure. The latter, especially, has been levelled against the MC in recent years due to his supposed “emotional” nature. A start contrast to the hyper-masculinity that stills dominates the Rap arena.

Keen to address the matter, the ‘Hold On, We’re Going Home’ rapper readily offered his response to the internet jibes thrown his way in the latest issue of VIBE magazine, which he also covers.

The 27-year-old also waxed honest on his friendly rivalry with Kanye West, his goals, desire to be a dad and more.

So, who came out on top?

A number of surprises below…

Tessanne Chin has been crowned the season 5 winner of NBC’s ‘The Voice’.

The big-voiced songstress rocked the competition as part of ‘Team Adam’.  The Jamaica-born singer has seen her fair share of shine prior to ‘The Voice’ as she’s opened for the likes of Gladys Knight and Patti Labelle, but it was the NBC-hosted reality talent singing show that has made Chin a household name.

See her Celine Dion-assisted performance of ‘Love Can Move Mountains’ from tonight’s finale…

Divas Danity Kane are back and served up quite the exclamation mark last night at their first concert together in over five years.

Now a quad, the group took to the stage at Los Angeles’ House of Blues and proved that they haven’t lost a step despite original member D. Woods not returning to the fold.

The ladies thrilled the sell-out crowd with hits from their much-revered catalogue including ‘Showstopper’ and ‘Damaged’, while also debuting new songs such as ‘All In A Day’s Work‘.

So, really though, what are you waiting for? Watch DK rock LA after the jump!
