Dammn baby. The name of Janet Jackson's unborn child is said to named after her late brother, the legendary Michael Jackson. As for Janet's due date, its rumored to be sometime this month. If the recent pics of her is any indication on how far along she is, I would say November sounds about right. Did you all see the wacky interview Lil' Wayne did when he was asked about Black Lives Matter? Well no I didn't see it either. I just read excerpts from the interview. But the comments Lil' Wayne made offended a lot of people and now he is apologizing. Rember Tinashe? She had the hit single, "2 On" a few years ago. She has released a few songs in recent months namely "Company" and "Party Favors". Well now Tinashe is releasing her new mixtape, "Nightride" tonight at midnight. I'm not sure if its going to be on iTunes or for free download. Will you be checking it out? People were outraged when Beyoncé performed at the...

Rihanna News: Tinashe is mad!!! The singer took to social media and disclosed that her album, "Joyride" which was set to be released in the coming weeks is not being ripped apart. The title track was given to Rihanna and will be included in a rumored "Anti" re-release. Tinashe took a jab at Beyoncé claiming she was the first to use an inspired makeup idea that Bey debuted in the video for "Sorry". Sounds like its been a bad week for Tinashe or should I say a bad last week. If that ain't enough, Chris Brown blasted her after she spoke out against him for disrespecting Kehlani. Oh shucks! Stuff like this happens all the time. Songs are passed around left and right in the industry. So good luck to Tinashe though. Maybe she should go independent. What do you think? And more on the whole Beyoncé debacle. It is being reported that Rachel Roy is indeed "Becky" and that's what Beyoncé allegedly referred to her all along. During the infamous fi...

Meek Mill says he's in college. Anything to not to go to jail huh? Alexis Arquette, brother sister of David Arquette says Will Smith is gay!

Also Stacey Dash of "Clueless" fame says BET should not be around. Keshia Knigh-Pulliam has gotten married to Ed Hartwell of "RHOA" fame. What would be crazy is if they signed up for season 9. Meanwhile Keshia's ex-boyfriend Big Tigger is still single and pretending to be straight. Macklemore dissed Iggy Azalea is a new song. Don't know the name of it but why does everyone come for Iggy though? Iggy better go at these people on her new album. What do you think of today's news stories?

Love her or hate her(love her!) Azealia Banks definitely speaks her mind and makes no apologies. Last night the controversial and outspoken rapper spoke out about the beef between Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj citing that both were "basic" as well as Taylor Swift. She also went on to say that they all made "basic" music. Do you agree or disagree? I would definitely say Miley Cyrus is nothing special. Everything she does or says is for shock value. It's like she has this desire to shock all the time in hopes people will forget she played "Hannah Montana" 100 years ago. On a much lighter note, Teyana Taylor and her boyfriend, Iman Shumpert are expecting their first child together. The singer revealed the news via social media of course. Congrats to the couple! Tinashe has revealed that her new album will be titled, "Joyride" which is due in November. The album's first single is said to debut in a few weeks. You excited or nah? Tamar Braxton...

There are some new albums on the horizon to look forward to, first up is The Game. He will be releasing "The Documentary 2" on September 25. Tinashe, known for her hit "2 On" is looking to drop a new album in November. And last but certainly not least, Janet Jackson is said to release her album this Fall. The album's title has been revealed as "Unbreakable". Oddly enough her brother, the late Michael Jackson, had a song titled "Unbreakable" on his 2001 album, "Invincible". Janet's new album is still shrouded in a lot of mystery but we do know some of the song titles, "Plush", "Night", and "The Great Forever", which Janet previewed a while back. Are we looking forward to any of these new albums?

TOUR DE FORCE: So if you all weren't aware Iggy Azalea was supposed to embark on her The Great Escape Tour but for unforeseen reasons it was cancelled(and later rescheduled). One of the show's opening acts, Tinashe, known for her hit "2 On" dropped out of Iggy's tour to join rival Nick Minaj's "Pink Print" tour. Ironically Iggy is featured on the remix to Tinashe's new single "All Hands on Deck". I guess Tinashe had to go where the money is at. Do you blame her and do you think it was wrong for her to leave Iggy's tour only to join her rival's tour? And second of all I wonder what Iggy thinks of this? Anyway you all have a good night. I just saw this story and thought I'd share with you all. Until next time!

2ND CHANCE: Tinashe known for her hit 2 On is already at work on her sophomore album. Tinashe released her debut album Aquarius back in October. And why is she working on a new album so soon? My guess is because no one bought the first one. I'm not sure. What do you think? BLACK POWER: In much better news D' Angelo fans the wait may just be over as the reclusive singer is said to release a new album Black Messiah on December 15. A physical copy of the album has landed in stores in Brooklyn as have posters advertising the new album. D' Angelo's manager promised a new album this year and I'm guessing he was right on the money. Black Messiah is the first album from D' Angelo in 14 years. MUSIC BITS: Rihanna is not pregnant! Chris Brown and Karrueche are back together.

Another new album on the market is Keyshia Cole's Point of No Return which will debut a little higher with an estimated 25K sales in its first week of release. Mariah Carey has tapped friend Nas to help her out on the dating scene since she is newly single. One problem though! Nas is allegedly scared to introduce anyone to Mariah. Ouch!
