Number two of Mariah Carey's five remixes of "#Beautiful" has arrived. This time, the Miguel-assisted track gets a "Spanglish" reworking and becomes "#Hermosa"—she's not done with hashtags.
Yes, pop legend Prince has worked with Janelle Monáe on her upcoming album, The Electric Lady, but he apparently didn't stop there. The singer has retooled Ms. Monáe's latest single, "Q.U.E.E.N.," featuring Erykah Badu, putting his own twist on it.
Mariah Carey is not satisfied so far with the performance of her hashtag-sporting single "#Beautiful." The R&B diva, who holds the record for solo artist with most No. 1 songs, was likely expecting her latest track to skyrocket to the top, but it has stalled at No. 15 for the past couple of weeks (new charts will be revealed Thursday). Thus, she has released the first of five new remix versions of the track. A new version featuring A$AP Rocky premiered on Wednesday.
You probably didn't think you'd be hearing new K-Ci & JoJo today, but sometimes Mondays work out that way. The brothers return this week with a sensual bedroom jam, "Knock It Off," a taste of their forthcoming record which is expected in the fall. It's been 16 years since the duo debuted.

Two unexpected acts collide in this fresh, new tune from Avicii, featuring the vocals of Aloe Blacc. An unfinished version of "Wake Me Up" has been floating around the Internet for a few weeks, but the final product debuted over the weekend on BBC Radio 1, and it's pure magic. Avicii ditches his usual DJ-synth mixes for a folksy blend of dance that surprisingly meshes very well with Blacc's unique, soulful voice.
John Legend has unveiled a new single off his forthcoming album. "Made to Love," co-written by Legend and Dave Tozer, describes the song's subject (fiancée Chrissy Teigen?) as a work of art.
