Almost two years after its release, ‘WAP’ continues to deliver moments. And the latest took place at the Wireless Festival 2022.

The latest installment of the annual extravaganza is currently bringing the heat to Finsbury Park in London – with Cardi B serving as one of the headliners.

During her fiery set, the femcee invited fellow Wireless performer Megan to join her for a spirited rendition of their Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper.

This week, we want to highlight cuts from The 1975, Keith Urban, Arden Jones, and Garrett Nash.

Macy Gray, who is hot on the promo trail in support of her August 10-due studio album ‘The Reset,’ has experienced a reset of sorts herself after landing in hot water for controversial comments she made about gender identity.

Statements perceived by many as ‘transphobic,’ Gray braved quite the backlash earlier this week after she took to ‘Piers Morgan Uncensored’ to say she believes that “just because you go change your parts, doesn’t make you a woman.”

Later defending her words as taken out of context and ‘grossly misunderstood,’ Macy moseyed to ‘The Today Show’ Thursday (July 7) to double down on her true intention and reaffirm her support for the LGBTQ+ community.

Three years after leaving her mark on R&B charts with her seventh studio album ‘Beauty Marks,’ our girl Ciara is ready to jump back to the top of charts with her new single, ‘Jump.’

The twerktastic bop, which has been amply tased over the last few weeks, comes as the first taste of the gems set to line the singer’s yet-titled eighth studio album – her first under a new deal with Republic Records (as we reported here).

“If you want it, I got all the flavors you need / Get up on it, come apply that pressure on me / You’ve been waiting, saying what you gon’ do, we gon’ see,” Cici croons over the bumping Sam Sumser production.

Ahead of the premiere of the tune’s official music video on Friday at 9a PST (July 8), look jump inside for your first listen to ‘Jump’:

Chris Brown fans, affectionately called #TeamBreezy, who felt his last studio effort didn’t give them enough content will be pleased to know he’s expanded the set to include 9 more songs.

Just a week after his 10th studio album ‘Breezy’ landed in the top 5 of the Billboard 200 (as we reported here), Brown is hoping to take the joint to higher chart heights with the unveiling of its deluxe edition.

Upping its total track count to 33, the already star-studded opus – which featured appearances from the likes of Ella Mai, H.E.R., Jack Harlow, WizKid, Lil Wayne, and more – is now packed with even more features including Anderson .Paak (‘Inner Peace’), Davido (‘Nobody Has To Know’), and more.

Having already expressed displeasure at the commercial performance of the original version of ‘Breezy,’ here’s hoping the deluxe version helps render numbers he’ll be prouder of.  Stream it inside courtesy of Apple Music and Spotify.
