Jay-Z and Beyonce have topped Forbes ‘World’s Highest-Paid Celebrity Couples’ list. Drake’s collaboration with the late Aaliyah has pissed off her fans, Ne-Yo’s album will not be released next month, and Azealia Banks apologizes to Kreayshawn and wants to collab with her is what’s poppin’ in today’s Urblinks.

Maybe Drake should have left his obsession with Aaliyah to just that — an obsession because fans are not happy with his collaboration. It doesn’t stop with fans though. Aaliyah’s friend and producer Timbaland also weighs in on Drake executive producing a posthumous album by the singer. [AllHipHop]

A lot of skeptics have debated whether or not some R&B singers whose heyday is dead and gone could be interesting but when you add lesbians, clingy spouses, and colorful weaves into the equation, TV One’s R&B Divas might end up being must-see TV. [Eb]

For the Ne-Yo fans of the world you are going to have to wait a little while longer for his fifth studio album R.E.D. (Realizing Every Dream). He announced during his GMA performance on Friday, August 3rd that his album will no longer be released in September and did not give a new release date. He did promise that the album will be released this year though. [ABC]

Not sure how you go from turning down opening up for the biggest female in Hip Hop right now, Nicki Minaj but agree to do a song with the lackluster talent of Kreayshawn Miss Azealia Banks. A lot of recent decisions she has made have been questionable lately. [Rap-Up]

We’ve been waiting all summer and it’s finally almost time for Brandy and Chris Brown to show us how they “Put It Down” so we can fall in love. Check out the trailer to their video that will be released soon. [Youtube]
