Latto fans (affectionately called #Lucky7s) apparently couldn’t wait to get a taste of ‘Sugar Honey Iced Tea‘ – the rapper’s August 9-released studio album.

Her first project since storming the Billboard 200’s top 20 with 2022’s ‘777,’ ‘Tea’ boasts contributions from Cardi B, Ciara, Megan Thee Stallion, CoCo Jones, Flo Milli, Go Grizzly, Pooh Beatz, and Earl on the Beat among its ingredients – a mix that not only led the new LP to critical acclaim but also a handsome commercial response out-of-the-box.

Now with its inaugural sales tracking week at the midway mark, industry analysts are already predicting the numbers that will accompany the opus to charts will be her highest to date.

Tamar Braxton has returned to social media after blasting her family and deactivating her accounts.

As reported, the singer/reality star branded her family “toxic” and “awful” before professing her love for her “husband.”

With there being no public record of her being married, most interpreted her words as referring to on-off again boo Jeremy “JR’ Robinson.

Confusing matters the more, Braxton declared herself “single and sad.”

Her words were shared in the aftermath of the premiere episode of ‘The Braxtons’ on WE tv.

Now, in her comeback address, the 47-year-old is pointing the finger at those she says “were waiting for my life to fall apart.”

Two years after watching ‘Sl-t Me Out‘ become his highest Hot 100-charting hit yet (#28 peak), NLE Choppa gave the racy tune a lifeline in the form of the 2024-released sequel ‘Sl-t Me Out 2.’

And while the latter hasn’t exactly met the chart success of its predecessor, what it’s lacked in commercial response it’s more than made up for with its viral reception across social media.

To capitalize on that ongoing momentum, NLE has tag-teamed with Web sensation J.P. for ‘Country Me Out‘ – the latest remix of ‘Sl-t Me Out 2.’

“If I was a cowgirl, I’d wanna saddle me too / Nothin’ freaky that I wouldn’t do / To me,” Choppa relays over the IOP-produced bop.

Released Friday (August 9), hear the Bluegrass-inspired update to ‘Sl-t’ inside.
