Barbra Streisand has announced the new album titled ‘The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two’, which will include collaborations with Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Hozier, Ariana Grande, Mariah Carey and more.

‘The Secret Of Life: Partners, Volume Two’ features 11 duets with additional artists including James Taylor, Sting, Sam Smith, Seal, Josh Groban, Tim McGraw, and Laufey. The album comes as the long-awaited sequel to the chart-topping 2014 album ‘Partners’, and is set for release on June 27. Pre-order HERE.

Among the 11 songs will be McCartney on ‘My Valentine’, while Bob Dylan sings on ‘The Very Thought Of You’, and Josh Groban sings on ‘Where Do I Go From You?’, and ‘One Heart, One Voice’ will see Streisand collaborate with both Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande.

Streisand said in a statement: “I’ve always loved singing duets with gifted artists. They inspire me in unique and different ways … and make our time in the studio a joy. My new album ‘The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume Two’, gave me the chance to work and play with some of my old friends, label mates, and new artists too. I admire all of them … and I hope that you’ll enjoy listening to our collaborations as much as I enjoyed recording with all of my wonderful partners.”

The album’s first single “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” features Streisand’s collaboration with Hozier.  Hozier said, “To be asked to join her on a duet was a huge honour and came as a wonderful and welcome surprise. Barbra Streisand is one of the most enduring and iconic vocalists of our time, and somebody who defined an era with the sheer force of her voice, her talent, charisma and vision. Ewan MacColl’s ‘The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face,’ made famous by the stunning Roberta Flack recording, has always mystified me. It is, to me, one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. Along with the honour I have to sing on this record with Barbra, I hope this duet offers something of a gesture to Roberta Flack’s incredible legacy.”  See the lyric video: HERE.

Chris Brown has been ordered to remain in custody until mid-June following a court appearance in the United Kingdom related to a nightclub incident that took place last year.

Brown’s upcoming world tour is now also in jeopardy after a judge in the U.K. ruled Friday that he must remain in custody while facing accusations that he assaulted a music producer with a bottle at a London nightclub in 2023. The artist is facing a charge of inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent, stemming from an investigation conducted by London’s Metropolitan Police. If convicted, Brown could face a prison sentence ranging from two to 16 years.

The 36-year-old artist appeared in Manchester Magistrates’ Court to respond to the charges, and was denied bail. Judge Joanne Hirst denied the request for bail after prosecutor Hannah Nicholls described the incident as “extremely serious.”  Nicholls told the court that during a visit to the U.K. in February 2023, Brown allegedly launched an unprovoked assault on music producer Abe Diaw at the Tape nightclub, located in London’s upscale Mayfair district. According to her statement, Brown struck Diaw multiple times with a bottle before chasing him and continuing the attack by punching and kicking him. The entire incident was reportedly captured on the club’s security cameras, with numerous witnesses present.

Brown’s lawyer, Grace Forbes, argued that the artist posed no flight risk and urged the court to grant him release; however the judge ordered Brown remain in custody until his next court date on June 13 in London—which coincides with a scheduled performance in Frankfurt, Germany, which is part of the early leg of his international tour.  The judge also ruled that the case would proceed to Southwark Crown Court in London.

Brown’s international tour was set to begin June 8 in Amsterdam, featuring Jhene Aiko, Summer Walker, and Bryson Tiller. The North American leg is scheduled to kick off in July.
