A new season of ‘Love & Hip Hop: Miami’ is upon us, and we couldn’t be more excited.

Reassembling its star-studded cast for another season of love, laughs, drama, and music (of course), fans of the franchise will finally learn the latest happenings of Amara La Negra and Shay Johnson (who are both celebrating pregnancies), Trina (as she chronicles life as the only female act on her leg of the ‘Legendz of the Streetz’ tour with Rick RossGucci Mane and 2 Chainz), and Ray J and Princess (as they detail the dissolution of their marriage).

“Here is Miami, you better be ready to fight for your spot,” resident ‘LHHM’ star Trick Daddy shares in the trailer. “And once you grab that mic, it’s time to make some motherf–king noise.”

Ahead of the new season’s premire on Monday, Aug. 8 at 9 p.m. on VH1, look inside to see a 5-minute super trailer.

‘Caught Out There’ hitmaker Kelis found herself caught in a swarm of stings from Beyonce fans (affectionately called the #Beyhive) last week when she spoke out against the music megastar for allegedly sampling her hits ‘Get Along with You’ and ‘Milkshake’ without permission.

Originally listed as one of many contributors to the July 29-released album ‘Renaissance,’ Kelis not only confirmed she was unaware of the listing before the public she also suggested Bey was a thief for securing use of the two songs from The Neptunes (their writers and producers) instead of consulting her.

And while her commentary ignited a polarizing debate about artists’ rights and fair use, the hoopla eventually led Beyonce to remove the Kelis interpolation all together from the album’s track ‘Energy.’

Look inside to see the energy Kel brought to the yard when she learned about the axing.

Giveon may be busy preparing to wow the masses on a 9-week tour across North America (as we reported here), but he’s still taking time to plug his debut album, ‘Give or Take.’

The LP peaked at #11 on the Billboard 200 and fared even better on the R&B charts when it peaked at #3 there.  As it slips down the latter tally, the latest single from the set – ‘Lost Me’ – has bounded into the top 10 of the Billboard R&B radio chart as its found at #8 this week.

In a bid to push it to even higher heights on that particular hit list, Giveon is inviting fans to take a peek behind the scenes of the creation of its official music video.

‘My Neck, My Back’ hitmaker Khia is back in the bad graces of Beyonce fans (affectionately called the #Beyhive) after she unceremoniously roasted the music megastar’s latest album, ‘Renaissance.’

Already shrouded in controversy due to slams from singer Kelis for an allegedly unapproved sample as well as disability advocates for the inclusion of lyrics deemed offensive (as we reported here), the LP has landed on the radar of the polarizing rapper-turned-Web-personality who’s branded it as ‘devil-worshipping music.’

The 45-year-old’s review didn’t sit well with the #Beyhive – many of whom have swarmed her social media platforms in defense of their Queen.

Look inside to see what she said that has them in a tizzy.
