You could say Iman "Mateo" Jordan is a hopeless romantic. "I know it sounds cliché," the Ohio singer-songwriter-pianist tells The BoomBox with a hint of amusement in his voice. "But I have to describe my music as love. I think everyone can relate to that."

Indeed, the crooner, who was signed by producer Kerry "Krucial" Brothers and Grammy-winning superstar Alicia Keys to the Krucial Noise imprint in 2010, wears his heart on his sleeve.

His 2011 mixtape 'Love & Stadiums' is huge on love, breakups and redemption. With his official EP debut, 'Love & Stadiums II,' led by the Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz-featured track 'Say It's So,' Mateo sat down with The BoomBox to discuss his rising career, working with a modern day R&B icon and why today is the best time to be a musician.

Beyonce fans hoped the '4' creator would pop out Jay-Z's offspring this weekend, however, it looks like the singer hasn't gone into labor just yet. The 'Countdown' performer's sister is setting the record straight about rumors the star gave birth within the last few days.

Solange Knowles singled out her big sister in a post via her Twitter page. "Shout out to my sister for being THE cutest pregnant woman ever!" she wrote Sunday (Jan. 1). Apparently, Beyonce is still very much sporting a baby bump and welcomed 2012 without going into labor.
