Janet Jackson may make rocking stages across the globe on the latest leg of her critically acclaimed ‘Together Again Tour‘ look easy, but – as recently revealed in an interview – the outing is one of the hardest live ventures she’s undertaken over her four-decade-long music career.

As one-third of Migos, one of the best-selling Rap groups of all time, Quavo was no stranger to racking up top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 thanks to smash hits like ‘Bad & Boujee,’ ‘Slippery, ‘Stir Fry,’ ‘T-Shirt,’ ‘MotorSport,‘ and others.

And while he could also boast his fair share as a solo act, all of those appearances on the all-genre tally came from being a featured act of someone else’s hit – until this week.

Having teamed with 11x GRAMMY nominee/Alt-Pop diva Lana Del Rey for the July 3-released ‘Tough,’ the unexpected union has birthed a milestone moment in the career of the self-proclaimed Head Huncho.

In a surprise twist, social media is collectively bowing down to the Puerto Rican princess after Amber Rose made headlines for a polarizing, Trump-endorsing speech at the Republic National Convention (RNC) on Monday night (July 15).

From naming Nicki Minaj as the greatest female rapper of all time to crowning her hit ‘Super Bass‘ as the greatest female Hip-Hop song ever on its ‘500 Best Pop Songs List,’ Billboard is no stranger to making tongues wag and jaws drop over the years for their polarizing “best-ever” tallies.

That trend is one that continued with their latest list, ‘The 100 Best Rap Albums of All Time,’ which was comprised solely of studio albums and ranked its roster based on commercial performance on Billboard as well as subjective criteria like cultural impact, longevity, and more.

And while the list was expectedly male-dominated (with Nas‘ groundbreaking 1994 LP ‘Illmatic‘ printed at #1), its inclusion of females was undoubtedly noteworthy.

Due for release on July 19, the 16-track project arrives on the arms of the momentum established by viral hits such as ‘No Bars’ and ‘Okay.’

Tinashe enjoys a loyal fanbase of her own, but the star has made no secret of how much of a fan she is of Pop legend Janet Jackson.

A longtime member of the Rhythm Nation, the performer has been vocal about how much of an impact the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer has made on her career and artistry.

Nashe even formed part of a dance tribute to Jackson at the BET Awards 2015.

Recently the love returned her way when Ms. Jackson interpolated Tinashe’s hit ‘Nasty’ with her own classic of the same name while performing at the Together Again Tour.

At the latest stop of the trek, the singer – whose new album ‘Quantum Baby’ drops on August 16 – finally met her idol.

Lee Daniels‘ latest film ‘The Deliverance’ is coming to Netflix next month.

And to whet appetites, a titillating trailer has been unleashed.

Led by Academy Award nominee Andra Day, the film chronicles the chaos that surrounds her character Ebony Jackson. 

A struggling single mother fighting her personal demons, she moves her family into a new home in hopes of a fresh start.

However, when strange occurrences inside the house raise the suspicions of Child Protective Services and threaten to rip the family apart, Ebony quickly finds herself locked in a battle for her life and the souls of her children.

Inspired by a true story, ‘The Deliverance’ assembles an all-star cast including Day, Glenn Close, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Caleb McLaughlin, and Mo’Nique – who reunites with Daniels on the project (following ‘Precious’).
