Charlie Bereal Releases New Single “Chocolate Woman”

Charlie Bereal—the GRAMMY-nominated multi-instrumentalist behind some of R&B’s most iconic hits—is back with his latest single, “Chocolate Woman.” Released via Death Row Records/gamma., the track is a masterclass in modern soul, exploring the fragile balance of love, respect, and reciprocity. Building on the success of his debut album, Walk With The Father, Bereal leans into his reputation as a “musician’s musician.” The track features a rich, live-instrument tapestry of trumpets, chimes, and his signature guitar work, evoking the timeless spirit of legends like Teddy Pendergrass and Curtis Mayfield. While he has spent years shaping the sound of industry giants—contributing to hits like Aaliyah’s “More Than a Woman” and Missy Elliott’s “One Minute Man”—Bereal is now firmly in the spotlight, blending his Pasadena gospel roots with a cinematic R&B sensibility that is both personal and profound.

Keith Robinson Releases Video For Latest Single “Foolish...

Renowned actor and recording artist Keith D. Robinson has returned with the visuals for his latest single, “Foolish Luv”. This serves as the second release from his highly anticipated album, “Love Episodic II”, which is scheduled to drop in the spring of 2026. Directed by Julius “Bigfellow” Twum and Robinson himself, the music video is a comedic, sci-fi take on modern romance. It co-stars actress Trisha Mann-Grant, Robinson’s castmate on the hit CBS daytime soap Beyond the Gates. The storyline centers on “The Man Store,” a fictional department store selling made-to-order robotic men. Chaos ensues when the “Keith D. Robinson 2.0” model sells out, forcing the store manager (Mann-Grant) and her quirky staff—security guard “Dwayne” (Robinson) and handyman “Ginger” (Twum)—to unveil the new “Teddy Boo 3T.” The video playfully explores the obsession between their TV characters, Dr. Ted Richardson and Leslie Thomas, asking the question: Is technology creeping too far into our love lives? “The irony of making this visual was the ‘out of the box’ approach we took that seems to be less and less ‘out of the box’ as the days go by,” says Robinson. “We go spiraling towards technology invading every space of humanity.” The video riffs on the chemistry found in Beyond the Gates, the CBS series set in a posh, affluent African American community in Maryland. The show follows the prestigious Dupree family and the scandals hidden behind the manicured gardens of their gated community.

Cardi B Supports Boyfriend Stefon Diggs At His...

Cardi B and Stefon Diggs are practicing wellness–and philanthropy–as a couple. The rapper continued her reign as her boyfriend’s biggest fan by supporting him at a holiday wellness event at the New England Patriots’ Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. on Monday, Dec. 15. The happy couple joined local mothers and their kids for the stadium’s first-ever “Winter Wonderland Wellness” event, which was organized by the NFL star’s nonprofit, Diggs Deep Foundation. As seen in multiple videos across on social media, the rapper and the football player took their shoes off to participate in the yoga class, flashing smiles at one another as they giggled and took direction from the teacher. While at the event, Cardi also posed for a photo with Diggs’ mom, which the proud mother posted in an Instagram dump from the event along with the caption: “Bring your mom to work day: Holiday edition.” While talking to local reporters about why he wanted to organize the event, Diggs explained that a night focused on pampering mothers was very important to him. “It’s the end of the year. I feel like everybody had a hard year, every year is a hard year, especially for moms,” the NFL star, who was raised by a single mother, said. “My mom is actually here today, special guest. So I just wanted to have a wellness day, an appreciation day.” He continued, “Everyone works extremely hard and I’m extremely blessed, so paying it forward has always been big for me. I think give them a little break, a little yoga, a little message, a little facial… a day of appreciation.” This outing for Cardi and Stefon comes just one month after the pair welcomed their first baby, a boy, together. While they have yet to reveal the little one’s name, the rapper been giving fans little glimpses of her baby since his arrival. On her Instagram Stories on Friday, Nov. 28, the former Love & Hip Hop star shared a photo of her “cuddle buddy” in a fuzzy white outfit adorned with Diggs’ name and jersey number on the back in gold letters. Cardi is also a mother to three older children, whom she shares with estranged husband Offset: daughters Kulture Kiari, 7, and Blossom Belle, 15 months, and son Wave Set, 4. This isn’t Diggs’ first time having kids, either. He welcomed his first child, daughter Nova, in October 2016. He also shares daughter Charliee Harper with model Aileen Lopera, who was born in April 2025.

Young Thug Proposes To Mariah The Scientist During...

It’s official for Young Thug and “Daddy’s baby“, Mariah The Scientist! The rapper took to the stage at his concert on Tuesday, Dec. 16, to pop the question to his longtime girlfriend, singer-songwriter Mariah the Scientist. The sweet moment happened during the former’s Hometown Hero: Young Thug & Friends – A Benefit Concert at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. As seen in footage captured by fans in the crowd, Thugger dropped down on one knee and popped the question, causing the audience to erupt in cheers as the screen behind them read, “WILL YOU MARRY ME?” The couple shared an embrace and kissed after the sweet moment before Young Thug slid a massive diamond engagement ring onto the singer’s lefthand while she yelled, “Put it on!” Guess I’m getting married!” Mariah the Scientist said excitedly before kissing her now-fiancé. Later that night, the couple posed for some photos together, with Mariah taking every opportunity to show off her new hardware. It’s no surprise to see just how excited she is about the proposal, as it comes just a few days after she talks about how badly she wants to tie the knot. Source: Prince Williams / Getty During her interview with Angie Martinez for Power 105.1 on Saturday, Dec. 13, Mariah insisted that she was ready to “settle down” and eventually have “at least one” child. “I want to be married,” she said. “Listen, that’s my plan. I can’t speak for everybody, that’s my plan though. That’s what I’m doing.” The rapper and singer have been in an on-again, off-again relationship for about four years, having been first romantically linked in 2021. Thug was incarcerated for two and a half years of that, but Mariah stayed by his side through it all. They reconciled in October after a brief breakup. Outside of the GQ Men of the Year 2025 party on Nov. 13, shortly after their reconciliation, TMZ asked if the couple was still “going strong.” That’s when the rapper confirmed he’s in this for the long haul, replying: “Of course. Just put a baby in her.” The post Always n Forever: Young Thug Proposes To Mariah The Scientist During ‘Hometown Hero’ Concert In Atlanta appeared first on Bossip.

Shanice & Kenny Lattimore Come Together For New...

The holiday season has officially gained a new soulful soundtrack. R&B legends Kenny Lattimore and Shanice have joined forces for a brand-new single, “Love at Christmas Time,” a track that serves as the musical centerpiece for their upcoming BET+ original movie, A Soulful Christmas. Released just in time for the 2025 holiday rush, the duet marks a major collaboration between the two vocal powerhouses, blending Lattimore’s signature smooth tenor with Shanice’s agile, high-octane soprano. The release of “Love at Christmas Time” is more than just a standalone single; it is directly tied to the duo’s on-screen roles. In A Soulful Christmas, which is set to premiere on BET+ on December 25, Lattimore and Shanice star as “feuding musical legends” named Ashton Franklin and Patti Young. According to press materials from the film, the plot follows the two stars as their children trick them into collaborating on a holiday song remake. The film’s narrative—moving from rivalry to romance—is mirrored in the chemistry of the new track, which critics are already calling a return to form for classic 90s-style R&B duets. “Love at Christmas Time” anchors a broader holiday campaign for BET+, which has positioned the song and the accompanying film as key parts of their “Yuletide” programming slate. Early listeners describe the track as a nostalgic, mid-tempo ballad that leans heavily on vocal harmonies and traditional R&B instrumentation, steering clear of the synthesized pop sounds often found in modern holiday playlists. The single hit streaming platforms in late November 2025, just weeks before the film’s Christmas Day debut. Fans can stream “Love at Christmas Time” on all major digital platforms now. The accompanying film, A Soulful Christmas, will be available for streaming exclusively on BET+ starting December 25, 2025.

Ne-Yo Releases New Single “Simple Things”

Grammy Award-winning R&B superstar Ne-Yo has returned with his latest single, “Simple Things,” a soulful ballad that finds the crooner celebrating the understated beauty of love and life. Released officially on November 21 via his YouTube channel and streaming platforms, the track offers a grounded perspective on romance, steering away from the glitz of celebrity life to focus on authentic connection. In “Simple Things,” Ne-Yo delivers a vocal performance reminiscent of his early career classics, blending acoustic warmth with his signature songwriting precision. The lyrics paint a picture of domestic intimacy, with the singer assuring his partner that while he appreciates the effort of “high heels and that red dress,” he is equally captivated by “sweats, a ponytail, and a smile.” The song serves as a reflective anthem for the “Miss Independent” singer, who touches on his time spent “out on the road” and the realization that “there ain’t no place like home.” The chorus drives the message home, asserting that “life is all the in-between” and emphasizing that true happiness is found in the “flowers you find on the uphill climb.” “Simple Things” is available now for streaming.

R&B veterans Kem and Marsha Ambrosius have joined forces on the collaborative single “Rock With Me,” a track that pays homage to the classic “steppers” culture rooted in Detroit and Chicago soul traditions. Originally released as a digital bonus track on Kem’s Full Circle EP, the song has garnered renewed attention for its departure from the singer’s signature ballads. “Rock With Me” offers a mid-tempo, rhythmic groove designed for the dance floor, often drawing favorable comparisons to the effortless swing of 90s R&B classics. The collaboration leverages the established chemistry between the two artists, who recently co-headlined the successful Soul II Soul Tour. On the track, Kem delivers his trademark smooth, jazz-inflected vocals, while Ambrosius provides a melodic counterpoint, showcasing a more restrained, harmonious side of her vocal range. Music critics have noted that the single serves as a bridge between traditional adult contemporary R&B and the vibrant ballroom dance culture popular in urban communities. “Rock With Me” is currently available on all major digital streaming platforms.
