The i am OTHER/Interscope Records’ Alabama duo, WATCH THE DUCK , rings in 2018 with a unique blend of future R&B and nostalgic feels with their new single, “There You Are.” The track continues duo members Jesse and Eddie’s new musical venture, with a more intimate and personal sound starring Jesse’s R&B vocal. “There You Are” is a feel-good record that encourages listeners to stay in the moment, and move with whatever feelings come from being in the present. Directed by Watch the Duck’s own Eddie, the accompanying visual inspires us with the magic of the everyday by closing the gap between typical music video fantasy and the mundanity of an ordinary work environment. “As artists in this very competitive space, we’ve realized that our best chance at standing out comes from our ability to humanize everything, and that’s what we wanted to do with ‘There You Are.’” What did you think of the song and video?

As TLC preps for their self-titled fifth studio album, the two members are taking the time to reflect on their careers. They dished on the past and the present in a new Billboard magazine story.

The push present is the latest trend among fabulously wealthy people in search of new reasons to lavish each other with extravagant presents and then brag about said presents on social media. Technically it’s a gift for pregnant women who are about to give birth, but when it’s taken to opulent extremes, it’s really just an excuse for the Kardashians of the world to flaunt their wealth. Kim’s push present was a $1 million diamond choker, but because Blac Chyna is expecting a baby with an unemployed stoner and not a world-famous rapper she had to go a bit cheaper – and buy the damn present for herself. That’s Blac with the new love of her life – a $400,000 Rolls Royce. She captioned the pic: “A little gift to myself for working this hard all year! Cant wait to bring my baby girl home!” Hey, we’ve been known to spend the day in bed just because we’re carrying an unusually large food baby, so we have the utmost respect for pregnancy and pregnant women. Really, if there’s any feat that deserves a present, it’s creating a freaking life. That said, maybe it doesn’t have to be a $400,000 luxury automobile? Especially when your primary source of income is a reality show whose ratings have been steadily plummeting since its debut? We know Blac has other revenue streams, but all of them are based on her social media popularity, which could go up in smoke over night. And we hate to rag on Rob, but the fact is, Blac’s engaged to an emotionally troubled recovering addict who’s soon to be a first-time dad. We’re just saying, it might be a good time for Rob and Blac to focus on creating the most stable possible environment for little Kym Kardashian (that name won’t help), and maybe spend a little less time thinking about themselves. Blac is absolutely right in that she hustles hard, and she deserves to enjoy the finer thing in life. But her latest extravagant purchase isn’t the only indication that Rob and Chyna are thinking more about Rob and Chyna than about the challenges of starting a new, blended family in the constant glare of the media spotlight. Earlier this week, Rob said he plans to drop some “pregnancy weight” after Chyna gives birth. View Slideshow: Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian: Their Relationship In 15 Photos We suppose it’s funny that he’s using Blac’s pregnancy as an excuse for why he packed on the pounds. But it’s a little unnerving that he thinks raising an infant for the first time will leave him with ample time and energy to start a new diet.
The year of Lady Gaga will officially conclude with the superstar scaring the living ish out of television viewers once again. On Thursday, American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy Tweeted that “Lady Gaga is so brilliant in AHS Season 5 that [he] officially asked her to join Season 6.” Murphy then beseeched Gaga to say “yes,” which is the exact word she used when asked this morning during a Z100 radio interview if she would appear on the FX smash hit again this fall. She did add as a qualification, however: “I can’t promise you how or when, or anything like that.” Lady Gaga, who brought the Academy Awards crowd to its feet last week, starred on American Horror Story Season 5 as The Countess. She won her first-ever Golden Globe for the role, as you can see here: Lady Gaga Wins First-Ever Golden Globe! Not many details regarding American Horror Story Season 6 have been released, although FX President John Landgraf told reporters at the Television Critics Association winter press tour in January FX that the new chapter would be “set in the present” with “echoes of the past” mixed in. He added: “It’s set in two time periods, but principally in the present.” We’re sure roles and characters are still being hashed out, but it would be very hard for us to believe that Lady Gaga isn’t once again one of the leads. In the meantime, you can watch American Horror Story online to catch up on her performance from last year… … and you can also watch Gaga absolutely slay the Super Bowl national anthem last month, along with a David Bowie tribute at the Grammys: Lady Gaga National Anthem at Super Bowl 50 Lady Gaga Pays Tribute to David Bowie at 2016 Grammy Awards
