Just six months after admitting she had “no idea” if she would ever perform again (as we reported here), “Baby One More Time” diva Britney Spears announced she’s making time to head to the studio to crank out new music.

As previously reported, Spears stunned her loyal fans (the #BritneyArmy) when she marched to Instagram Wednesday (December 22) to show off her vocal prowess and announce new music was on the way.

‘Up’ hitmaker Cardi B is fed up with the enduring criticisms launched the way of Lil Kim.

Granted, the legendary rapper – who has long expressed her fondness of Cardi (even garnering headlines for crowning her the official princess of Rap) – has enjoyed no shortage of reverence from industry peers and a legion of diehard fans (affectionately called #KillerBees) over her 25+ year career.

Yet, that hasn’t stopped some from taking aim at the 47-year-old’s appearance, career status, or personal troubles (i.e. legal, financial, romantic, etc.) – all of which are immaterial to Cardi (born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar), who took to social media Tuesday (December 21) to defend her Rap idol.

Some people frown on re-gifting, but – as evidenced by the repackaging of her holiday-inspired song, ‘Wrap Me Up’ – singer-songwriter Jhené Aiko isn’t one of them.

The original incarnation of ‘Wrap’ was lifted to Soundcloud in 2012, but its 2021 Lejkeys & The Fisticuffs-produced revamp elevates its sound thanks to the embellishment of strings and horns.

“Mistletoe hanging right over the bed / Girl you get whatever you wanna get / Diamonds and pearls no time along / Girl what’s up with you, you never want that / Trade you anything, let me unwrap you, start at your waist,” Aiko coos on the seductive Christmas track.
