Not being biased or anything but THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL A COVER! The harmonies take this version somewhere the original couldn't even see. This does it for me. Haunting. And can we talk about this range?! Bet you never thought she could.

Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj Guest on Jessie J's Brand New Single, 'Bang Bang'

Full audio has finally surfaced of Jessie J's brand new single, Bang Bang, which features singer Ariana Grande and rapper Nicki Minaj.

Plug your headphones and press play:



Fun track. Was wondering what this collab' was going to sound like in it's entirety. Not too shabby. Happy about the Nicki verse. I think it gave the track it's much needed umph.

For some reason, I was kind of expecting more from this. Even though the vocals were on point, it's still very forgettable to me. Lets hope it becomes one of those songs you can't listen to without watching the music video, otherwise #ByeFelicia.

Watch Jazmine Sullivan's 'Dumb', 'Cheaters'-themed Music Video

It's here. The visuals for Jazmine Sullivan's comeback single Dumb has arrived a we've got it here for your viewing pleasure.

Let us get into it:



Fun visuals. Unexpected and hilarious. Love how they took on 'Cheaters', adding their own spin to it with the puppets.

I wish they took a more The Boy Is Mine type of approach to it, as opposed to this sesame street vibe. Otherwise, I don't know what you could do more with this theme. I think the idea was there and the execution to that idea was perfect.

Sample Jennifer Hudson's New Album

Sample Jennifer Hudson's upcoming album below!

The album, which still has yet to be titled or given a release date, is said to be a "feel-good" record.

The five-track sampler contains three snippets of new tracks, Dangerous, He Ain't Goin' Nowhere, and It's Your World feat. R. Kelly. The other two tracks are the previously released singles, I Can't Describe ft. T.I., and Walk It Out.

I'm getting a very electro-pop vibe. Very vintage Janet Jackson, and I Wanna Dance With Somebody-Whitney Houston. I'm very interested in hearing Dangerous in it's entirety. Other than that, it's whatever 'til the release I guess.

UPDATE: It's been announced that Jennifer's upcoming LP will be titled, JHUD.

Check her out:

While Other Female Rappers Are Throwing Shade, Iggy Azalea Is Making History

While other female rappers are throwing shade and writing songs to oblivion, Iggy Azalea is making history.

The 24-year-old female MC becomes only third act in history to replace ones self at the no.1 spot. Problem, Azalea's collaboration with Ariana Grande, moved up to number one this week on two billboard charts. With the single replacing Fancy, also by Azalea, on the Pop chart. A feat achieved previously by only Mariah Carey and Outkast.

Fancy has also become the longest running #1 single from a female rapper, a feat previously held by Lil' Kim's 2001 Lady Marmalade collaboration which held down the the top spot for five weeks.

Shout out to Iggy for putting Australia on the map. With the success of Lorde, and now Iggy, Australasia(Australia & New Zealand) can now hopefully see more of their artists slay on the main stage. Now that's opening doors. Bravo!
