Mary J. Blige stopped by The Wendy Williams show for the first time ever. MJB is one of Wendy’s all-time favorites and a dream guest, so you know she made it a special show. Wendy isn’t one to bite her tongue though, the frank host delved into some very personal questions with Mary, including trouble in her marriage, struggling with drug use, motherhood, her recent Oscar snub and much more. Mary also gave two very strong performances. Check out this preview and stay tuned for the full, revealing sit-down, set to air Thursday, February 2nd.

As R&B continues to resurface this year it has been confirmed via Twitter that singer/songwriter Tweet has signed with DuBose Music Group, and is currently in the studio working on a brand new album.

Tweet definitely is a void in today’s music industry. Her unique sound, lyricism, and emotion is why we love her. Her debut album Southern Hummingbird, which was released in 2002, is still in heavy rotation, and a favorite of many to this day!

Are you excited for Tweet to return??

Just when you thought this years Grammy Awards were going to be a snooze-fest, Columbia Records confirms that Adele will be making her return to the stage on Feb. 12 at the STAPLES Center in Los Angeles! The soulful songstress will return to the stage for the first time since undergoing vocal cord surgery last fall. Adele is nominated for 6 Grammys, and rightfully so she deserves them all and a free buffet. Go Adele!

While in New York, Orisue got the chance to meet Cory Gunz who stars in his own reality TV show on MTV and is signed to Lil’ Wayne’s record label YMCMB. Cory stopped by Orisue’s showroom to cop the Maverick Jacket in Tan. Thanks for supporting and hold your head bro!

JD brings us some more in-studio hilarity, giving the lams an exclusive look at his most recent session with Mariah Carey. The frequent collaborators joke about trying to work while JD is always on his website Global14, but mention they have worked on 5 new songs, none of which are finished yet, but they are excited about them.

R&B vocalist Lloyd is not one to back down. Although his 2011 album, King of Hearts, didn’t fare as well as many hoped or expected, the singer/songwriter is already back in the studio working on new music, a new mixtape, and a new album to follow.
