Looks like Usher V is getting back to normal.  And his mom Tameka Raymond is posting picture updates to let everyone know his progress.  Check out what's going on inside, plus Chris Brown's seizure explanation....

Cutie Usher V is resting up in the hospital and is expected to get out in a few days, according to reports.  And his mom Tameka, after losing her request for emergency custody of her and Usher's two sons, is still keeping it positive.  She posted the above pics of her sons Ryan, Jr. and Naviyd chillin' with their brother in the hospital saying:

Don't ask me about the box cut on @rg2point0 w/his hyper brother. #KidNPlay #OldSchool #Family #Myhearts

And it seems like Cinco is more concerned with "Fresh Prince" than anything else:

Woke up cheerful, happy and hungry. Watching Fresh Prince... What does he know about the Fresh Prince? Intense face. Lol

Cute.  Glad to see he's doing A-Ok.  But Tameka has more fights on her hands.  She returns to court August 27th for a full custody hearing.  And she and Usher have been battling it out over child support payments since before this pool accident.

TMZ reports Usher filed docs earlier this month asking to pay a lower rate than his $8,000/month child support payments for Usher V & Naviyd.  Why?  Because he and Tameka never re-adjusted the payment requirements since Usher gained full primary custody of the kids.  So he feels he's been overpaying for the last 7 months, and wants to lower that ish.

And as for Chris Brown, he refused treatment after his seizure on Friday.  But now, we've learned why the seizure happened in the first place.

Breezy's rep told Us Weekly that it happened in the studio Friday morning and it was a non epileptic seizure (NES) brought on by stress.  The rep added:

"His doctor tended to him this afternoon and attributes the NES to intense fatigue and extreme emotional stress, both due to the continued onslaught of unfounded legal matters and the nonstop negativity."
 

That explains why Chris threatened to quit the music biz just a few days ago saying it would make mainstream America happy. 

Meanwhile, Chris just shot his "Love More" video featuring Nicki Minaj.  And he was spotted above doing a technical scout of the location. 

Keep ya head up Breezy.

Ciara joined her new bestie Nicki Minaj on the Miami set of the "I Wanna Be With You" video yesterday.  Check out who all was on set doing what they do best--Instagram Flexin'--inside...

The track "I Wanna be With You", which stars Nicki Minaj, DJ Khaled, Rick Ross & Future, is already getting a video treatment.  The newest single off Khaled's Suffering From Success album already has some buzz due to Khaled's public marriage "proposal" to Nicki.  So we guess that video will follow that whole PR stunt.

Future rocked a Balmain look and Giuseppe sneakers for the vid.  And was sure to let his IG followers know.

Music chicks K.Michelle & Elle Varner celebrated their albums this week.  K. hosted an album release party in Atlanta Friday night, while fab chick Elle had a secret show in NYC for her fans.

 

Check the pics inside....

Ah yes.  This is what we would expect K.Michelle to be pretty happy about receiving as a gift.  A shirt that mentions sex & paychecks.  The "V.S.O.P." singer had an album release party last night at Frank Ski's restaurant in ATL. 

She rocked a cute yellow short jumpsuit with gold caged sandals for the occasion:

The blondie got some support from her "Love & Hip Hop: ATL" cast members Mama Dee, Lil Scrappy & Buckeey:

We guess Scrappy's switched back over to his always-available side piece Buckeey now that he and Erica Dixon are on the outs.

And y'all already know Mama Dee is cheering THAT on.

The Queen of the "Palace" offered up hugs and support for her co-star at the event.  And K.Michelle posted a pic of the two saying she's always held her down.  We're sure...

K posed it up with Frank Ski himself.

Her Rebellious Soul album drops August 13th.  You coppin' it?

 

And recently in NY, cutie Elle Varner had a secret show with 75 of her biggest fans.  And they all celebrated the 1-year anniversary of her debut studio album Perfectly Imperfect:

She posed for a few portrait pics before taking the stage at OZ studios in midtown Manhattan with her guitar and singing cuts off the album:

Glad she stole some time away from canoodling with her NBA baller boyfriend Iman Shumpert to rock an intimate performance.

 photo DSC01170_zpsda72430e.jpeg

Congrats on a year Elle!  By the way, she and Wale have a song on deck together called "Rover (I'm Coming Over)".  And she gave her fans at the secret show a preview.  Nice.

Here's a clip of Elle belting out "Number One" & an acoustic version of "Refill" off the Perfectly Imperfect album:
