Drake has done it again, though it isn’t surprising. The TikTok-ready single, “Toosie Slide” has reigned supreme this week on the Billboard Hot 100 after debuting at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. This marks several historical feats in Drizzy’s career as he claims his seventh chart-topper. Additionally, he’s now the first male act in history to claim three #1 debuts. Mariah Carey did have a similar run in 1995-1997 with three #1 debuts in the span of those years.

Drake has also clocked in 50 weeks in total at the top of the chart, making him the fifth artist and the first male solo act to reach this feat. Drizzy sits behind Mariah Carey, Rihanna, The Beatles, and Boyz II Men. “Toosie Slide” followed “God’s Plan” and “Nice For What” in Drake’s catalog for #1 debuts on the Billboard Hot 100. The rapper moved 25K in the first week with “Toosie Slide” with 55.5 million U.S. streams. 

With Drake reclaiming his throne on the Billboard Hot 100, The Weeknd‘s “Blinding Lights” slides down to number 2 followed by Roddy Ricch‘s “The Box” which is still holding on strong to a spot in the top 5. Dua Lipa slides down to number four and of course, Drake and Future‘s “Life Is Good” is still going strong on the charts at number 5.

“God’s Plan” and “Nice For What” maintained their position at number one weeks after its release. Do you think “Toosie Slide” will have the same type of commercial impact? Sound off in the comments. 

Kanye West, Mariah Carey, and Tyler Perry are set to contribute to Joel Osteen’s virtual Easter service this weekend, and the Lakewood church pastor has provided some more details about each act’s plans. We reported that these performers and speakers would be a part of Osteen’s online Easter congregation, and it looks like most or all of these acts’ performances and speeches will be pre-recorded and streamed on the Internet in some fashion. Although he’s proud to have Kanye, along with his Sunday service choir, and Mariah perform and Tyler to speak, Osteen doesn’t take full credit for getting these acts together for his Easter service, noting that it “it just all came together…it just kinda fell into place.”

While it’s well known that he and Kanye are tight since Ye and his Sunday Service choir have performed at Osteen’s Lakewood Church on several occasions, not many people know that the pastor and Mariah go way back. Osteen said Mariah actually contacted him first about putting something together because “she wanted to show some support and honour to the first responders. She wanted to share us a song and put some video footage of the first responders [together], just to do her part to bring hope and uplift the nation.”

However, Osteen knows less about Kanye’s specific plans, but he’s seen a few photos that demonstrate that the “one-of-a-kind” artist and his Sunday Service choir are maintaining social distancing. As for Tyler Perry, Osteen says the filmmaker, who “is a very powerful speaker” and has spoken at Lakewood in the past, “sent us a 5-minute clip where he’s just encouraging everybody through this difficult time.” Osteen actually reached out to Perry first and asked him to provide some encouraging words for the virtual Easter service.

While Osteen has been conducting his own services online for a few weeks now amid the coronavirus pandemic, he’s asked about other pastors who have been going forward with their congregations in-person and defying the government’s orders. Osteen says he doesn’t “want to judge anyone else, because people feel strongly about their faith and some of these pastors, I’m sure, are my friends.” However, because his own auditorium seats a whopping 16,000-17,000 people, “it felt right to me to honour the authorities. I’m probably more old school…I don’t mind that—it’s not a lack of faith that we’re not having services, it’s a respect to mankind.”

Online Easter is about to be lit. This weekend is Easter, and typically, people would have already purchased their Sunday Best in order to show off their faith-filled 'fits at church. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused countries worldwide to clamp down on social interactions and gatherings, so church services have been canceled. There are a select few dissidents who are still calling for their congregants to meet together face-to-face, but authorities guarantee that anyone out and about during this pandemic will be cited or arrested.

Joel Osteen and his Lakewood Church crew are bringing a virtual Easter service to the public. Osteen is one of the most popular megachurch pastors in the world whose global audience reaches upwards of 10 million people. Viewers tune in to watch Osteen's services on television and online, but he reached a new audience after his good friend Kanye West hosted a Sunday Service musical event at Lakewood Church. The pair of famous figures were set to reunite for Osteen's big Yankee Stadium event in May, but things have obviously been sidelined for the time being.

In the meantime, TMZ reports that Osteen's online Easter service will reportedly feature Kanye, Tyler Perry, and Mariah Carey who will "deliver messages of love and support to his massive audience." The publication states that Mariah Carey will perform some sort of tribute, rumored to be her song "Hero," to thank healthcare workers for their tireless work. Tyler Perry will deliver uplifting words of encouragement, and Kanye West reportedly will return with his Sunday Service social distancing choir. It's unclear if this will be live or pre-recorded, but we're viewers won't care much either way.

He’s back at it. Jacquees may have sparked controversy after crowning himself the King of R&B, but O.T. Genasis is quickly coming for the title. The rapper has kicked up a bit of dust of his own after feuding with Keyshia Cole over his Crip remix to her song “Love.” When Keyshia publicly shared that she wasn’t a fan of the tune and criticized Genasis for not speaking to her before creating his track, he snapped back. The dispute wasn’t enough to keep O.T. Genasis away from dabbling in R&B, especially after 21 Savage shared his off-key pipes on Instagram.

Hip hop is well aware of 21 Savage’s love of slow jams. He’s sung classic hit on social media for some time, always entertaining his fans with his playlist filled with some of our favorite R&B artists. O.T. saw his fellow rapper’s performances and decided to up the ante with a battle. He returned with Mariah Carey‘s classic hit “Always Be My Baby” from her 1995 album Daydream. 

“KING OF R&B ? PERIOD POOH! Lol @21savage U don’t want no smoke ?,” O.T. Genasis teased in the caption. His friends slid in his comments to lend their support. “Talk to these n*ggas!!! Lol,” Joe Budden wrote. Snoop Dogg added, “?? watch. Me work. N*gga.” Tamar Braxton chimed in, “At least u singing the queen.” Check out O.T. Genasis singing a Mariah Carey classic below.

Mariah Carey may not believe in “birthdays” as a concept or getting older in general, but the superstar is still spending her special day doing what she loves most—making some magic in the studio. The music icon (technically) turned 50 on Friday (March 27th), and she is celebrating this milestone by recording a new song at her home studio. Mariah shared a selfie showing how she’s kicking off her 50th “anniversary”—the word she chooses to use instead of “birthday” because she would rather not acknowledge that she’s aging—on Instagram, urging everyone to practice social distancing by staying home amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“Starting 327 with a new song,” she wrote. “#stayhome.” Mariah hasn’t released new music in several months now, her last single taking the form of the theme song for ABC’s Black-ish spin-off, Mixed-ish, called “In the Mix,” which debuted in September of 2019. Besides the deluxe edition of her timeless 1994 Christmas album, Merry Christmas, this past holiday season, Mariah’s last album was Caution in 2018. It’s safe to say fans are hoping for a new body of work from the singer soon, so maybe this upcoming song will turn into recording a full-blown album in quarantine?

Along with celebrating her own anniversary, Mariah also gave a shoutout to her fellow Aries superstars. “Happy anniversaries to all my super talented fellow Aries!!” she wrote on Instagram. “Cheers!!!” She then proceeded to tag Chaka Khan, Diana Ross, Elton John, Celine Dion, Fergie, Lady Gaga, and the late Aretha Franklin. Aries season definitely brought the birth of a ton of talented musicians.

Another day, another challenge. Recently, celebrities went viral after clips of them singing John Lennon's "Imagine" circulated online. Later, Tyler Perry called on his famous friends to flex their vocal skills while singing "He's Got The Whole World in His Hands." The song is hailed as a religious Negro Spiritual but is sung worldwide by people of all ethnic backgrounds.

"It’s my hope that we add to this simple song in every language from every nation as we let it become a prayer for our whole world! God bless you today. And remember it’s all in God’s hands!" Perry wrote on Instagram. He added the hashtag, "#HesGotTheWholeWorldChallenge" before tagging a handful of others.

Mariah Carey is undeniably one of the most celebrated singers in the world, so it was only a matter of time before she added her flawless vocals to the challenge. The Queen of the Lambs shared a clip of herself belting out a variety of octaves as she sang the song's simple lyrics. Mariah Carey has fans that are dedicated through and through, but after the video went viral, many people took to social media to vocalize their disapproval. Watch Mariah sing her version of #HesGotTheWholeWorldChallenge and let us know what you think.

Always in the mood to celebrate a holiday, Mariah Carey just tried her hand at the viral “Flip The Switch” challenge, inspired by Drake‘s banger “Nonstop.” In the video, the diva is being tended to by her make-up artist as her twins stand in front of her. In the background, a man carries the family dog in his arms. Once the switch is flipped, the entire gang is decked out in festive outfits, rocking the color green to celebrate March 17 with tons of spirit.

Even though we’re not supposed to be leaving the house, we can still have fun. Now is the time to capitalize on things you’ve been meaning to do around the crib. Clean your room, hang out with your loved ones, and, most importantly, crack open a cold one to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in the most festive way possible.

Mariah Carey and her twin children, Moroccan Scott and Monroe Cannon, shared an adorable TikTok video of the threesome washing their hands while belting the lyrics to Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “Fantasy (Remix)” verse. While the multiplatinum songstress might be in a nasty legal dispute with her ex-assistant over an $8 million extortion plot, Carey has remained her glamourous self and has been promoting family life utilizing the highly-popularized streaming platform every time she and her children get the opportunity. Now, the “Giving Me Life” singer is teaching her babies the importance of proper cleanliness with the help of legendary Wu-Tang Clan member, Big Baby Jesus formally known as Ol’ Dirty Bastard.

Mariah Carey’s original hit single “Fantasy” was released in 1995 and garnered the now 49-year-old songstress the title as the first female artist to debut at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. The song remained atop of the list for a consecutive eight weeks while also charting at number one and within the top five of seven different countries including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and more. It wasn’t until three years later that the remix featuring the late Dirt McGirt made its way on the scene repositioning its status as one of the greatest R&B and hip-hop collaborative efforts of all-time. 

In the video posted to her Instagram account, Mariah and her children can be seen aggressively washing their hands over a gold-plated sink. During the clip, Mariah prepares her children to perform stating, “Are you ready? We got 20 seconds.” Carey and Cannon kids belt out ODB’s initial bar, “Me and Mariah Go back like babies with pacifiers,” before seemingly forgetting the rest of his classic verse, as the 5x Grammy Award-winning artist continued to encourage her kids to get their rap on. Eventually, the hand-washing timer goes off and the video comes to a close. 

With the novel coronavirus officially a national emergency, some patrons are beginning to panic preparing for the worse, when proper sanitization practices and social distancing should allow the masses to remain in healthy standings. With that said, don’t be alarmed, stream your favorite music, and watch Mariah and the Cannon twins rap one of the greatest R&B rap verses of all-time in the video provided below. 

Mariah Carey and her former assistant were unable to agree on a settlement in legal battle, in which Mariah has accused her ex-employee of attempting to blackmail her for $8 million using intimate videos taken without her permission. Mariah filed the lawsuit against her old assistant, Lianna Shakhnazaryan, last year, citing that Lianna had filmed her in a compromising position without her consent. She then alleged that Lianna tried to extort her out of $8 million by threatening to leak the tapes. Lianna fired back with her own lawsuit against Mariah, accusing her of wrongful termination. According to court documents, Mariah and Lianna were unable to settle their differences, after they each recently attended separate mediation dates in an attempt to work out some kind of compromise to avoid a court trial. Their lawyers informed the judge that “the parties were unable to resolve these matters,” and the two of them will now have to prepare to go to trial.

In Mariah’s lawsuit, she explains that, after she hired Lianna as her assistant in 2015, the woman “turned out to be a grifter, a Peeping (Tom)asina and an extortionist.” She is seeking $5 million in damages. Lianna has denied any wrongdoing and has argued that any mental or emotional distress suffered by Mariah were the result of her own behaviour.

Blueface is fresh off the release of his debut album Find The Beat, which came out today. With features from DaBaby, Lil Baby, Gunna, Ambjaay, and more, this is the first time we get to hear the Los Angeles native on a full-length display. He has been on somewhat of a local press run, visiting all of the West Coast-based media staples and, of course, that meant a trip to Nick Cannon‘s radio show. Answering questions about his sex education and the new album, Blueface also revealed who his childhood crush was, trolling the host in the process.

When met with the question, Blueface gave it some thought before explaining that Mariah Carey is his biggest crush.

“This n***a,” uttered Nick Cannon under his breath. “I don’t think she’s single. I could hook it up for you though. She got a little dancer boyfriend.”

In case you somehow forgot, Nick Cannon was famously married to Mariah Carey for eight years. On the real though, Christina Milian earned a legit stamp of approval from Blueface before he found out that she actually just had a baby. He admits that he’s not particularly into famous girls, telling Cannon that most of the women he interacts with are “regular.”

Watch the full interview below, and fast-forward to the Mariah Carey mention at the 8-minute mark.
