Nearly 50 years after Isley Brothers fans first became acquainted with their now-classic cut ‘Make Me Say It Again Girl,’ the iconic group is spinning the 1975 song again – this time adding a bit of diva spice to the mix.

Calling on Beyonce to give the timeless tune a facelift, the songstress – who is currently enjoying a run atop the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200 with her smash hit ‘Break My Soul’ and its parent album ‘Renaissance’ respectively (as we reported here) – breathed new life into ‘Make Me’ as she traded verses with lead Isley Brother Ronald.

“Oh, I believe you are a rainbow / All the heaven I need to see / You’re the promise everlasting / Ah, and where you are I hope to be,” Bey and Ron croon on the remastered track.

Megan Thee Stallion sprung quite the surprise on her beloved fans, affectionately called #Hotties, Thursday (August 11) when she revealed her long-awaited sophomore album ‘Traumazine’ would drop the next day.

The follow-up to 2020’s ‘Good News,’ word of the arrival of its successor served as good news as well – a report trumped only by the revelation of its star-studded guest list which includes Dua Lipa, Future, Key Glock, Rico Nasty, Latto, Pooh Shiesty, and Jhené Aiko.

Speaking on the new album, Meg said she wants to take listeners on an emotional journey.

“I want to take you through so many different emotions,” she told ‘Rolling Stone.’ “At first you was twerking, now you might be crying…I just always want people to remember, ‘Yes, Megan Thee Stallion, she was great, she was a rapper. She was one of the best rappers, the coldest.’”

After giving her dedicated fans, affectionately called #Barbz, a live preview of her new song ‘Super Freaky Girl’ at OVO Fest (as we reported here), Nicki Minaj finally lifts the lid on the tune’s recorded version.

Arrived Friday (August 12) after ample teasing, the Rick James-sampling cut – which is believed to be another taste of what’s to come on her forthcoming fifth studio album – had already gained traction on Tik Tok just from the snippet that accompanied its announcement weeks ago.

Originally called ‘Freaky Girl,’ the super sexually-charged ‘Super Freaky Girl’ lives up to its title in more ways than one as evidenced from just the first verse.

“I can lick it, I can ride it while you slippin’ and slidin’ / I can do all ’em little tricks, and keep the d*ck up inside it / You can smack it, you can grip it, you can go down and kiss it / And every time he leave me ‘lone, he always tell me he miss it,” the 39-year-old raps aboard the Dr. Luke-produced beat.
