Rihanna has been a busy bee this week.

The model successfully launched her Fenty Beauty make-up line, which has the cosmetics world in a tizzy.

And now, she’s moved straight on to the New York Fashion Week presentation for her FENTY x Puma range.

Helping RiRi celebrate the debut of the SS18 instalment were Pharrell Williams, Ty Dolla $ign and rumored boo Lauren Jauregui (from Fifth Harmony), G-Eazy, Halsey, and more.

Sevyn Streeter is celebrating the long-awaited release of her debut album ‘Girl Disrupted.’

Hatched this week, the set has been earning rave reviews from her loyal fanbase who’ve been salivating for the LP for almost 4 years.

‘Anything U Want’ has emerged as a favorite, so the arrival of its accompanying video is oh so apt.

Ty Dolla $ign, Wiz Khalifa and Jeremih join the starlet in the ALFY directed video, which also features appearances from the Serayah and Eric Bellinger.

Speaking on the concept, Sevyn told BB:

“It only seemed right for the video to feel [like a party]. I never went to college — unfortunately — so I lived out a little piece of my dream in this video. I threw a frat party, took a few shots and invited the three coolest dudes I know, LOL: Wiz Khalifa, Jeremih & Ty Dolla $ign. We had a blast on set and I love how it all came together.”

Solid.

This has potential if pushed.

Your thoughts?

7/7/17 saw Sevyn Streeter‘s star-studded debut album, ‘Girl Disrupted,’ land on shelves in a big way.

The long-awaited project was not only greeted with open ears (and arms) from the singer’s growing legion of fans, but is also welcoming critical acclaim as well – a feat she is undoubtedly hoping will be reflected commercially when the set’s premiere sales week finishes tallying.

To help, Streeter has called upon the help of hip hop heavyweights Wiz Khalifa, Jeremih, and Ty Dolla $ign to assist.  Joining her on ‘Anything U Want’ – a sample of SWV‘s 1992 R&B hit ‘Anything – the cut hears the foursome trade verses back and forth about wooing their love interests with expensive gifts and the like.

 

Definitely one of ‘Disrupted’s standout tracks, ‘Anything U Want’ will reportedly see its video shot next week with a rollout scheduled before the summer’s end.

Your thoughts?

With his ‘Party Tour’ closed this week, Chris Brown forges ahead and in preparation for the release of his forthcoming ‘Heartbreak on a Full Moon’ album.

Unveiling the tune, ‘Surprise You (The Life),’ Brown shows off his oft-envied harmonic layering with a little help from friends/rappers Ty Dolla $ign and Kid Ink.  But, just in case you fall head over heels in love with the song, just keep in mind it’s yet another “loose cut” that did not make the list of 40 songs set to line the ‘Moon’ project.

Still worth a spin, though. Hear it below:

Your thoughts?

Jason Derulo is pouring out more for fans to ‘Swalla.’

Re-joined by Nicki Minaj and Ty Dolla $ign, the singer has today served up the ‘After Dark Remix’ of their club jam.

A more stripped back affair, the new incarnation of the track skews somewhat acoustic.

Thus far, the original has peaked at #42 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Can the new version help it climb higher? Listen below and let us know…

 

It’s definitely…different. We commend the effort, especially as it’s a nod to times of past when a remix brought something entirely fresh to the table rather than a pasted in verse.

Your thoughts?

A month after introducing ‘It’s A Vibe,’ one of many releases from his forthcoming album, ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music,’ rapper 2 Chainz‘ star-studded track – featuring Ty Dolla $ign, Jhene Aiko, and Trey Songz – has been given the video treatment.

A gift for his fans celebrating “4/20,” the chill visual sees its four stars living out their “fantasies” in everything from neon lit backdrops to swanky nightclubs.

As their club hit, ‘Swalla,’ continues to satisfy the musical taste buds of music lovers and make its way up the charts on the back of its colorful music video, Jason Derulo and Ty Dolla $ign hit the promo trail in hopes of making the Ricky Reed-produced tune their latest respective top 20 hit.

The island-inspired groove, which also features a verse from Grammy-nominated rapstress Nicki Minaj, got its first live treatment last night courtesy of Derulo and $ign taking to Orlando, Florida’s Universal Music Plaza stage for a special edition of ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.’

 

Did they do the song justice in Minaj’s absence?  Tuck in below and tell us:

Ashanti is ready to blow you away with her new single, ‘Lose Yourself.’

As we reported here, the Grammy-winning songstress is not only experimenting with new sounds for her 6th album, but is also looking to demonstrate her artistic maturity a recent interview with our friends at VIBE reveals.

Dishing to the Urban mag, Ashanti not only details her reasons for remaining an independent act despite multiple offers from major labels, but also gives dibs on some of the prized Urban producers who are contributing to her next LP – the first since 2014’s ‘Braveheart.’

Do pretty girls like trap music?  2 Chainz seems to think so.

So much so, in fact, the rapper/producer actually named his forthcoming album ‘Pretty Girls Like Trap Music.’

Ahead of its scheduled April 7th release, Chainz called on the help of friends Jhené Aiko, Trey Songz, and Ty Dolla $ign for the single ‘It’s a Vibe,’ one of many gems found aboard ‘Girls.’

Curious to hear what the star-studded combo sounds like?  It awaits inside:

Jason Derulo has proven himself a formidable force on the singles charts, yet he may very well be an unstoppable one with new single ‘Swalla.’

Issued as the lead release from his latest studio album, the track teams the singer with Nicki Minaj and Ty Dolla $ign. And the result sounds like a smash in waiting.

Caribbean-kissed, stacked with memorable samples, and right in the thick of what’s contemporarily hot, the trio may very well have nabbed their next hit with the Ricky Reed production.
