Rihanna Says She Just Wants to 'Have Fun With Music'

It’s been four years since Rihanna released an album but the singer is working hard on recording new music. The pop star, 32, told The Associated Press for her new album she’s already held “tons of writing camps” — where songwriters are put into groups to create original tracks for artists. Now, she said she’s asked herself the questions: “What do I feel personally? What do I want to put out, and as an artist, how do I want to play it with my art? How do I want to interpret that?”

“How do I want to reimagine it because it’s been so structured before,” Rihanna continued in a recent interview. The multi-genre artist who has won Grammys in the R&B, dance and rap categories added: “You do pop, you did this genre, you do that, you do radio, but now it’s just like, what makes me happy? I just want to have fun with music. Everything is so heavy. The world that we live in is a lot. It’s overwhelming every single day. And with the music, I’m using that as my outlet.”

Mariah Carey's Rare Documentary

In 2003, Mariah was the most successful female recording artist of all time. Her marriage to Tommy Mottola in 1993 was a turning point in her life, which all began to fall apart when she started to struggle with her mental health.

At 18 Mariah Carey signed with Columbia Records, and her first album had four No. 1 singles, including "Vision of Love" and "I Don't Wanna Cry." Carey went on to generate several more albums (later with other studios) and top singles, becoming one of the most commercially successful artists of all time with 19 No. 1 hits.

What If You Had The Chance To Meet Freddie Mercury Before He Died?

For many of you who do not know, lets read up on the legendary Freddie Mercury. He was a British singer, songwriter, record producer, and lead vocalist of the rock band Queen. Regarded as one of the greatest lead singers in the history of rock music, he was known for his flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range.

Freddie Mercury died in 1991 from HIV/AIDS. Freddie was considered a god among singers, and he had an amazing near 5 octave range, ranging from a bass' F2 to a soprano's F6.

In 1987, Mercury was diagnosed as having AIDS and the band together made the decision to stop touring, making the concert at Knebworth on 9 August 1986 the last time that the four original members of Queen performed on stage together.

Who Will Be Named The Official King Of R&B?

R&B is far from dead. In 2019, Jacquees anointed himself the undisputed ruler of R&B and fans did not agree. Commenters mentioned Chris Brown and said he's today's true King of R&B.

R. Kelly has been named by fans consistently as they engaged in the debate over which male artist is the King of R&B. Known as "The King of Soul," Otis Redding was one of the greatest R&B singers of all time.

R. Kelly, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey help to make R&B more popular today than what it ever has been. 90's R&B performances felt more intimate. The music was so great that the artist could literally just coast their performance and the crowd would still feel it.

What If Michael Jackson Was Alive, What Would You Want To Ask Him

What would you do or say if Michael Jackson was still alive today? If Michael Jackson was alive today, would he still be making music, and still be the king of pop?

At the time of his death, Jackson was still a huge draw, particularly in Europe. He was still an active performer, and his last album, Invincible, had been put out in 2001, eight years before he died. It was a huge seller around the world at the time.

And his health was not good-had he not died, he in all likelihood might have been too ill to continue to be an active touring, working musician. Touring and public appearances are a lot of work, and Jackson just wasn’t well. And as we now know, his This is It tour was controversial because the sponsors of that tour basically put pressure on Jackson to commit to a heavy schedule while knowing he wasn’t in very good health.

Yo Gotti Sued For $6.6 Million

Yo Gotti is having his pockets hit hard after a North Carolina judge ordered Yo Gotti to pay millions over a botched business deal. Gotti lost a $6.6 million default judgment Tuesday (May 28) after failing to appear in court to address allegations that he refused to sign off on the release of a song collaboration, despite pocketing $20,000 for the feature.

Michael Terry paid Gotti to work with his artist, Young Fletcher, in hopes of jump starting his career. The 38-year-old rapper, whose birth name is Mario Mims, reportedly refused to sign a side artist agreement which would have allowed Fletcher to release the song.

Terry claims that he attempted to get in contact with Gotti and his team numerous times but to no avail. He also claimed Gotti tried to poach his artist. “At some point during this time period, Yo Gotti contacted Young Fletcher directly and privately offered him $150,000 to leave my label and join his instead,” Terry asserted in his affidavit. “Young Fletcher turned down the offer.”

Gotti is also accused of recording a new track with the same verse that he used for the song to “intentionally” make it seem as if Fletcher copied his music. Terry is prepared to do whatever it takes to get the money, including going after Gotti’s cars and Bel Air mansion.

#Stream Rich Forbez "Who Is Rich Forbez" #Album on #Itunes @RichForbez

Lima, Ohio producer/artist Rich Forbez formally known as Yung City has released his debut album "Who Is Rich Forbez."

The eleven track EP comes crammed packed with hit songs for both the streets and the ladies. Presented by Strarlife Music Group, this is one album you don't want to miss out on.

In Rich Forbez own words: "The motivation behind this album was life it’s itself. This album was a form of therapy that help me get to a brighter place after coming out of a heavy dark muddy funk and a heart break."

Community members of Lima always asked Fobez why was he still living in the city? Why he never left to go to the big city? And his response was: "Based off my confidence people wouldn’t know that I was actually nervous as shit to put my music out there to be judged. Also I felt over the years I’ve put myself on the back burner artist wise to service other artist in the area like shooting/editing music  videos and running a recording studio while quietly working and perfecting my craft. I eventually got fed up  if being asked the question and took action and stop over thinking my process and just went with my first ideas the beats told me to do. In that time I realized that only I was holding myself back from the world."

Did Soulja Boy Kill Music and Introduce Social Media?

Back in the mid 2000's, if you were on the web, then you were on Myspace. Everyone in the whole world was watching Soulja Boy and was waiting on him to blow. Everyone I know had multiple songs streaming on their Myspace page.

It’s already been said that Soulja Boy was responsible for sparking that shift, and one could label him the very first Internet rap star.
