Here at That Grape Juice, we love all things R&B! So, fittingly, we’ve teamed up with DJ Ace – one of the UK’s most revered R&B connoisseurs and host of BBC 1Xtra‘s weekly series Everything RNB (which airs Sundays at 10pm).
Each week he’ll be rounding up his latest show and previewing what’s upcoming on the next episode. Right here on That Grape Juice.
Without further ado, check out the latest installment with DJ Ace below…
If you missed #EverythingRnB last week, I was joined by Manchester’s very own Children Of Zeus. The R&B duo sat down with me to discuss their second album ‘Balance,’ and how it feels to have their music reach different countries across the globe. Mereba also stopped by the show to discuss her new project ‘AZEB.’ Brum Town’s Relley C delivered the #RNB1TAKE with a live performance of her track ‘PLT.’ [CLICK HERE TO LISTEN]
This week is of course, yet another huge show! I’ll be chopping it up with Asiahn about her single ‘OMW,’ and signing to the legendary Motown Records. Duchess will also be handling the #RNB1TAKE this week a dope live performance from home.
You can catch up on last week’s show, as well as ‘The Story Of Soul,’ a 3-part documentary hosted by yours truly, via the BBC Sounds app.
My picks for this week’s #SPOTLIGHT3 tracks are:
Asiahn – OMW
This sexy, soulful track is the first single taken from her upcoming album. Her amazing vocals showcase exactly why she has 3 Grammy nods under her belt.
Tone Stith – When You Love Someone (ft. H.E.R)
Taken from Tone’s latest project ‘FWM.’ I’ve been playing the title track on my show for weeks but this one is my new favorite. Check out the full project. It’s fire. This is a beautiful collaboration.
Alana Soul – Issues
‘Issues’ has a real summery vibe. The perfect kind of track to play at full volume, while driving around on a hot day. Alana’s new EP “Love in London” continues to show the South Londoner’s amazing vocal range.
Check them out and don’t forget to look out for next week’s #SPOTLIGHT3 here on That Grape Juice.
