Demi Lovato may have nabbed the highest chart opening in five years with her new album ‘Dancing with the Devil…The Art of Starting Over,’ but she isn’t resting on her laurels.
Her latest stop was Tiny Desk (Home) Concert.
There, the songbird took flight with a diverse array of tracks from the project, as well as a number of known and loved gems from her catalog.
Watch after the jump…
Contemporarily, commercial comebacks don’t come any bigger than Mariah Carey‘s seismic return to chart dominance with ‘The Emancipation of Mimi.’
A legendary body of work that is now celebrating its sweet 16th anniversary.
Prior to its release on April 12 2005, the diva’s career was on uncertain terrain.
The underperformance of 2001’s ‘Glitter’ (which has become a legend in and of itself) effectively KO’d the star’s colossal Virgin Records deal; and then 2002 follow-up ‘Charmbracelet’ (her first release for Island Def Jam) did not deliver commercially either — despite favorable reviews and her omnipresence on the media promo trail.
Fortunately for the songbird, the latter LP – her first to be shepherded by LA Reid – would prove to be the calm before the showstopping storm.
For, following the one-two punch thrown by ‘Emancipation’s preceding singles ‘It’s Like That’ and ‘We Belong Together,’ Carey would go on to light the match on one of the hottest streaks of her iconic career. Unquestionably, the album saw her blaze her way to the top of the Pop cultural landscape once again.
With ‘Mimi,’ the star earned her 16th and 17th #1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, was certified 6x Platinum in the US (pure sales), and sold over 12 million copies of the album worldwide. For many, the era served as a millennial mirroring of Tina Turner’s’ ‘Private Dancer.’ And arguably such a comeback story and level of success that has yet to be seen since.
In salute of the set’s 16th anniversary, That Grape Juice has tallied our top tracks from ‘The Emancipation Of Mimi.’

Less than 2 weeks before H.E.R. is set to fight for her first Academy Award, she’s given ‘Fight For You’ another rousing live rendition.
The heart-tugging tune, which is competing in the ‘Best Original Song’ category at the award show’s 93rd annual ceremony (April 25), is set to battle the likes of ‘Hear My Voice’ (from ‘Chicago Seven’), ‘Husavik’ (from ‘European Song Contest’), ‘Io Si’ (from ‘The Life Ahead’), and ‘Speak Now’ (from ‘One Night in Miami’) for the OSCAR gold.
Ahead of the showdown, the GRAMMY winner was spotted on the ‘Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon’ (April 12). While there, she dished about her dream of EGOT status, her history with the Apollo Theater, and more before launching into a stunning take of ‘Fight’ (originally found aboard the soundtrack of the film ‘Judas & the Black Messiah’).

Justin Bieber may be on top of the charts with new album ‘Justice’ and single ‘Peaches,’ but he takes the upside-down approach on the May 2021 cover of GQ Magazine.
And while the tagline reads young and free, the singer is keen to make clear that this period of life is about being free from the drama of his past.
Speaking to the publication, the 27-year-old said:
“I don’t want to let my shame of my past dictate what I’m able to do now for people. A lot of people let their past weigh them down, and they never do what they want to do because they think that they’re not good enough. But I’m just like: ‘I did a bunch of stupid shit. That’s okay. I’m still available. I’m still available to help. And I’m still worthy of helping.’ ”
