We’ve heard news of it, we’ve seen the behind-the-scenes footage and now, Chris Brown has finally released the visual to his latest single, “Don’t Think They Know,” from his forthcoming album X set to release July 16th.

Breezy spoke of the new single as an encouragement to “all races, genders, [and] sexes.” In the video, the 24-year-old highlighted different colors throughout to promote his “Unity Campaign.” He also payed homage to the late Aaliyah in a scene where he’d mimic her choreographed dance moves from different music videos like “Try Again” and “Are You That Somebody.” There is also an interesting scene where he looks like the crypt-keeper with white-out eyes. Not sure what that meant.

Check out the official video for India.Arie’s new song, “Cocoa Butter” — featuring the songstress sensually flowing through a sheet covered room. This track is the first single from her upcoming fifth album release, SongVersation (in stores on June 25).

She spoke exclusively to E! Online about the new project:

The making of this album has been one of the most important experiences of my career. Every time I make an album, it’s an important and tumultuous and nuanced and complex and dynamic process of going into the woods and coming out with the Holy Grail…the Holy Grail being the internal growth that becomes fertile ground for new songs.

Check out Kelis' latest track, if you missed it! Read More »

Recording artist Kelis was spotted out and about in the streets of London earlier this week (May 28). The “Milkshake” singer left the Whiskey Mist nightclub with a friend and shared some laughs once they entered their car.

Word on the web is that the former wife of rapper Nas has listed her Chelsea home on the market for $2.2M.

Just last year, Ms. Rogers was reportedly $349,015 in debt to the Internal Revenue Service and was allegedly issued a tax lien earlier this month.

Tax lien? What tax lien? If it’s true, then it’s obvious Kelis ain’t worried ’bout a thang!

In an effort to stress the importance of arts programs in schools, First Lady Michelle Obama and Scandal actress Kerry Washington set out for a day of fun with the students of Savoy Elementary School in Washington, D.C., Friday (May 24).

After a little dance session with a classroom of kindergarteners, the First Lady took to the stage to discuss the importance of hard work and encourage the students to be the best students they can be:

You all are so blessed to have this school, but we want you to keep working and prepare yourselves for greatness. It’s not about what you know, it’s about the effort that you put in, the amount of work that you’re willing to do to get where you’re going.

Candice Crowned 'Idol' Winner

Candice Glover Wins 'American Idol' season 12. Read More »

‘American Idol’ season 12 winner Candice Glover is on her way! After proclaiming her title last week, the young starlet has been making her press rounds.

The South Carolina-native made a stop at Live! With Kelly & Michael on Monday morning to perform her new single, “I Am Beautiful.” She also discussed trying out for Idol three times prior to her win, and encouraged young people to follow their dreams and hone their craft:

Well the first time I auditioned, I was 19 and I think I was just a girl who could sing back then. I didn’t know much about music. I just went because the auditions were close to me. But I went home and I studied just about every genre of music and got my music knowledge up. I think I turned myself more into an artist than a singer.

New music from Kelly & The Dream!

Now that Kelly Rowland has dropped her “Dirty Laundry” produced by The-Dream, Ms. Rowland returns the favor by singing on his IV Play record, “Where Have You Been?”

In the slow-tempo track, the recording artists sing about staying together through thick & thin, no matter how many times they fuss and fight. Hit play down below to give it a listen. The-Dream’s upcoming studio album, IV Play hits stores on May 28, 2013.
