ASAP Ferg is back and he insists that he is still part of the ASAP Mob.

The Harlem rapper returned Thursday with his track ‘Big ASAP,’ which features Monica.

While the song does not take shots at ASAP Illz and ASAP Bari, who recently claimed Ferg was no longer part of the collective, it does make it known that he is still part of the group.

In the song he raps:

“They gave me promo I couldn’t pay for / That A is still in my name, that A is still tatted on me.”

Welcome to 4th quarter!

We thought August 28 was the most jam-packed music release date of the year (due to many acts rushing to meet the GRAMMY eligibility deadline), but boy were we wrong!  October 2 brought it with a plethora of Pop, Hip Hop, and R&B gems to kick off the last quarter of 2020.

While the likes of BLACKPINK delivered their highly anticipated new LP ‘The Album’ (click here to stream), Bryson Tiller unveiled ‘Anniversary’ (click here to stream) – his first studio effort since 2017.  The project’s title acts as an ode to self of sorts as it arrived exactly 5 years after the premiere of his debut, ‘TrapSoul.’

Speaking of odes to self, Mariah Carey – just days after the release of her long-awaited memoir ‘The Meaning of Mariah Carey’ – gave fans a peak inside her prized vault by unleashing a set of previously unreleased tunes in a compilation album titled ‘The Rarities’ (click here to stream).

Those projects will duke it out for the top spot on the Billboard 200, but the Hot 100 has the fiercest competition as it will not only contain gems from the previously mentioned LPs but also rival new songs from Dua Lipa, Shawn Mendes, Megan Thee Stallion, Jason Derulo, and many more for top billing.

With this delicious buffet of new music laid out for consumption, That Grape Juice wants to know:

Who will get your coins (or streams) in the all-star battle?

At writing, BLACKPINK sits at #1 on the Worldwide iTunes chart with their new LP ‘The Album’ – a feat accomplished by monster first-day sales in top markets around the world, including the U.K. and the U.S.

As fans are still loving previously released singles ‘Ice Cream (featuring Selena Gomez),’ ‘How You Like That,’ and the recently unveiled ‘Lovesick Girls,’ they’re becoming acquainted with new content on the studio effort – including the Cardi B-assisted ‘Bet You Wanna.’

“You wanna touch, wanna touch? Of course you wanna / You wanna run with my love, I know you wanna / From the club to the tub, you said you wanna / Give me an all night hug, I bet you wanna,” group members Jennie and Rosé croon near the song’s chorus.

Teased over the past few days on social media by the ‘WAP’ performer, listeners finally got a chance to hear the cut in full when its parent project dropped at midnight October 2.

#BTSWeek continues at ‘The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,’ much to the delight of the group’s dedicated fans.

Last night (September 30), the K-Pop septet rocked the late night talk show with a live performance of their global hit, ‘Black Swan’ – the follow-up showing from Monday (September 28) and Tuesday’s (September 29) high octane live renditions of ‘Idol’ and ‘Home’ respectively (as we reported here).

For Thursday (October 1), they’ve lifted a new live of their tune ‘Mikrokosmos’ (found aboard their 2019 album, ‘Map of the Soul: Persona’).

Do you know what today is? It’s the release date of ‘Anniversary’ – the long-awaited third album from Bryson Tiller.

Arriving exactly 5 years from the October 2, 2015 premiere of his critically acclaimed debut LP, ‘TrapSoul,’ the new set is reportedly the first of a “wave of new music” coming from the GRAMMY nominee (who had been largely quiet over 2019 and early 2020 following the birth of his second child).

Officially back to business, the last few weeks have seen the  27-year-old whet appetites for the coming of ‘Anniversary’ by releasing housed cuts ‘Inhale,’ ‘Always Forever,’ and more.

Now, the full course is available for fan consumption.

Boasting Rap superstar Drake as the sole guest feature, look inside for the 10-song project:

Shawn Mendes is back!

It’s been over two years since fans could boast ownership of a new official body of work from the Canadian Pop star, but that’s set to change December 4 when he unleashes his highly anticipated fourth studio effort – ‘Wonder.’

To ramp up excitement for the LP, the 22-year-old took to social media Wednesday (September 30) to tease the music video for its title track by unveiling a captivating preview.  The next day, he shared the album’s official cover artwork and tracklist.

Now, after much ado, fans are inviting to see the ‘Wonder’ music video in full.

Thanks to a viral Tik Tok challenge, ‘Savage Love’ has become one of the biggest hits of Jason Derulo‘s career.

In addition to being his first Platinum single since 2017’s Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign-assisted ‘Swalla,’ the Jawsh 685-produced cut is Derulo’s first Hot 100 top 10 hit in 5 years (as we reported here).

Now, in an effort to push the tune to higher Hot 100 heights, the Miami dance machine has enlisted fellow stage blazers BTS to assist with its remix (as we reported here).

Will help from the K-Pop septet (who are currently sitting at #1 on the charts with their tune ‘Dynamite’) be just what’s needed to hoist ‘Savage Love’ to similar heights?

Despite salute from fans and critics alike for being a standout cut from her sophomore album, ‘Future Nostalgia,’ Brit-born beauty Dua Lipa‘s song ‘Levitating’ has yet to live up to its moniker on the Hot 100.

Although blessed with a remix that featured Blessed Madonna alongside Rap royal Missy Elliott and Queen of Pop Madonna (found aboard the LP’s deluxe edition ‘Club Future Nostalgia’), the tune’s still failed to crack the hit-list – a surprising fate given the success of its predecessors ‘Physical,’ ‘Break My Heart,’ and the top 5 hit, ‘Don’t Start Now’ (as we reported here).

In an effort to turn the tide on ‘Levitating,’ Lipa’s enlisted serial hitmaker DaBaby for a new remix.  Will his inclusion be just the trick to rev up consumer interest?
