In the crowded music business, it’s often hard to make one’s voice heard above the roars of chart titans and the whispers of others on the come-up.
However, for talented Tori Kelly 2015 has seen the masses sit up and pay all sorts of attention.
Having massed a loyal following online, the vocal powerhouse was swiftly snapped up by industry force Scooter Braun and recently released her debut album ‘Unbreakable Smile.’
Powered by rousing singles ‘Nobody Love’ and ‘Should’ve Been Us,’ the well-received set has helped cement Kelly as a name that’ll undoubtedly be here for the long haul.
With new single ‘Hollow’ out now, That Grape Juice caught up with the 22-year-old to talk her meteoric rise, show-stopping performances at the BET and MTV Video Music Awards, and possible collaborations with fellow members of Team Braun – Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber.
Watch above as TGJ talks to the name on everyone’s lips!

Her voice is much more powerful than Ariana’s.
Who is she? I didn’t come here for this TGJ give me an update one that Beyonce Adele duet…

I just wish she would experiment with new music all her stuff is folk with a guitar and her performances are all the same
She has 1 album.. give ha a chance
I’m really happy for Tori. Especially her Pepsi deal ! Come thru ma
great talent, but i don’t understand her use. like how is she booking all of these performances and deals, but album is not certified, has no hit single or massive fan base. where on God green Earth do they do that at? a talented artist gets so much push and yet she has no success and they keep pushing her like she was doing britney spears “BOMT” numbers or something. her team is on point, but I’m not understanding the lack of success that is coming from the huge push
Totally agree she has ahd little success. She has no singles that have charted in the top 40 her album probably sold 100,000 at most. Scooter Braun her manager really likes her and pushes the hell out of her like she’s actually a star. It’s obvious people don’t care about her though. Even her new song she just relesed is 63 on itunes. sometimes talent isn’t enough.
Her music is very boring and she doesn’t really have a gimmick to capture the publics attention. She can sing her curly haired ĀŠŠ off but you need more….unfortunately.
No shade, but…who??? Everyone is touted as a superstar these days
she has a good management that pushes her really hard but most ppl don’t know who she is don’t worry.
Great voice, boring music.
The same is said about the person you stan for. And no lies are told
Oh, but you speak LIES! Michael Jackson & Mariah Carey has some of the greatest music on POPular music. BYE
The problem is.
You can have a voice. But you CAN’T be unique. there is no signature sound, no originality.
All these basic b****** these days are copies of mimi, xtina, bey’s music. ITS NOT GONNA WORK!
As much as I hate gaga, but she is the best performer of her generation. WAY better that rihanna katy nicki taylor. Ariana has a better voice, but she is BASIC AF.
I cannot connect with these bitchs tbh. NEXT
*PLAYS XTINA’S CRUZ*
I like her. She’s genuinely is a sweet girl and very talented, so I wish her well
Cute girl and amazing vocal talent but Jojo is back now, we don’t need this curly haired chick.
You’re speaking as if Jojo is slaying right now. Her singles have made no impact and people dont care about her comeback.
lol stop. Tori has already done more than Jojo with this 1 album and Pepsi Commercial.
She should keep releasing singles from this album. She should be over a hundred k also. She’s beautiful & very talented. All she needs is that one breakout song. She’s done alright for not having a huge single.
Rolling my eyes in the deep, she’s no Adele, Next…
An impressive share! I’ve just forwarded this onto a colleague
who has been doing a little research on this.
And he in fact bought me dinner simply because I stumbled upon it for him…
lol. So allow me to reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!!
But yeah, thanks for spending time to discuss this matter here on your website.
