England LOOOOVES Nicki!!!!!

Nicki Minaj's latest single Starships is ALREADY #5 on the charts in the UK, which is a big deal because the last female rapper to reach the top five was Missy Elliott and her song 4 My People!

If things keep heading in the right direction, Nicki's new single will most likely set a record as the "highest charting single by a female rapper on the UK charts!" WOW!

This is all VERY impressive…especially since her new album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded doesn't even come out until April 3rd!

We're excited for U, Nicki! Sounds like 2012 should be a super bass year for ya!!!!!

Everyone get out your skin-tight jeans!

Katy Perry is reportedly set to release a special edition of her double platinum album, Teenage Dream, titled The Complete Confection, on March 27th!

Along with the 12 tracks from the original release, there will be three brand new songs, as well as

It's been awhile, hasn't it?!

While Missy Elliot and Timbaland continue to produce hit after hit, their solo projects have taken a back seat.

Now, this producing duo will be taking their tracks into their own hands!

Timz states the following about the upcoming albums:

Famed producer Timbaland has battled many things in his career.

But he has also been a smashing sucess in the music business.

Working with the likes of Justin Timberlake, Missy Elliot, Nelly Furtado, and Dr. Dre, he has been a force since the early 90s.

With E!'s True Hollywood Story, Timbaland reveals some of his demons.

He admits to loving the late Aaliyah but chose to be a big brother type.

He states the following:

When I first met Aaliyah—it time for the world to hear this, I'm gonna give a little secret—I was in love with her. I said, But I'm not…She just a baby, I'm old. I said to myself, 'I'm just gonna be her brother.' Oh man, I was fightin', I was fightin' a lot—a big war. But I loved Aaliyah.

Aaliyah signed a record deal at 12 and allegedly married R. Kelly at 15.

She tragically passed away at 22 in a 2001 plane crash.

Timbaland also talks about his weight and his suicidal thoughts.

I was almost 400 pounds. Who wants to be a 400-pound black man? I'm looking in the mirror, my breast is bigger than a girl breast. And I was saying, ‘That ain't cool.' So I got very depressed, like suicidal depressed.

But now, the superstar producer is married and healthier.

Timbaland's Story airs Tuesday, December 20th.

Nicki Minaj's single Super Bass is an official hit, everybody!

It's been rising on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, weeks after its initial release, and has become the highest-charting Hot 100 rap hit by a solo female since Missy Elliott's Work It, which reached Number 2 in 2002.

It's also only one of eight rap singles by a solo female to reach the top 10 in the chart's 53-year history.

Cash Money co-founder Ronald "Slim" Williams isn't surprise. He says:
