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…
It’s your boy Ace and of course, I’m back to put you onto all the freshest R&B. Let’s get into this week’s #SPOTLIGHT3.
Daniel Caesar – Please Do Not Lean (ft. BADBADNOTGOOD)
Daniel Caesar had been relatively quiet for the past couple of years, so it’s good to see him back with some new music. ‘Please Do Not Lean’ features BADBADNOTGOOD, an instrumental band hailing from Toronto. Caesar recently premiered the new track at Coachella.

Blxst – Let It Be Known
‘Let It Be Known’ is taken from Blxst’s latest project ‘Before You Go,’ which dropped this week. The set features the likes of Rick Ross and Zacari. If you’re going to Wireless this year, make sure you catch Blxst’s performance alongside a whole host of other R&B artists, hosted by me!

Tora-i – Lounging
We’re bringing it back to the U.K with my last #SPOTLIGHT3 selection. Tora-i is a London-based R&B/Soul singer-songwriter who has recently taken her talents on the road, playing a number of gigs across the U.S.
