Barely a month after Nicki Minaj made headlines for tying the all-time record for most #1 digital hits (thanks to her out-of-the-box smash ‘Red Ruby Da Sleeze’), the Rap Queen has become the title’s sole owner.
Details inside.
Jacquees isn’t letting that pesky petition (signed by over 50,000 people) stop him from putting his unique spin on the jams of other artists.
Despite being greeted with mixed reviews over the years for his takes on Brandy‘s ‘I Wanna Be Down,’ Michael Jackson‘s ‘Dirty Diana,’ Ella Mai‘s ‘Trip,’ Chris Brown‘s ‘Yo,’ Deborah Cox‘s ’Nobody’s Supposed to Be Here,’ and many other memorable numbers, the 29-year-old is hoping his rendition of rising R&B starlet CoCo Jones‘ breakout hit is received differently.
Taking a break from the promo trail in support of his December 2022-released studio album, ‘Sincerely For You,’ hop inside to hear the ‘Quemix’ of CoCo’s ‘ICU’ (which arrives alongside an official video directed by BPace).
Just as Ice Spice‘s previously highest-charting hit, ‘Boy’s a Liar’ (with PinkPantheress) readies its exit from the Hot 100’s top 10, the rising rapstress replaced it thanks to help from Nicki Minaj.
Look inside to see the numbers that powered their duet, ‘Princess Diana (Remix),’ to being crowned this week’s top debut on the hit list.
Jack Harlow sprung a surprise on fans this week with the release of his new album ‘Jackman.’
The project, which follows 2022’s ‘Come Home The Kids Miss You,’ was announced just 48 hours before its arrival, and saw the lion’s share of its buzz centered around its unorthodox release strategy rather than a preceding single.
With the first week predictions in, the scale of the hype is becoming clearer.

Drake is as in demand as ever!
Riding high from the momentum of releases such as ‘Her Loss’ – his joint album with 21 Savage the Hip-Hop titan is gearing up to hit the road on the ‘It Was All A Blur Tour.’
The summer trek, which kicks off on June 29, will see the Canadian force journey across North America – rocking arenas in a multitude of cities.
To meet the sheer magnitude of the demand, Drizzy has added several new dates to the tour. This after already expanding the initial itinerary for the same reason.
Head below to see the updated list of dates:
The “Ed Sheeran takeover” is revving up in celebration of the release of his May 5-due new album, ‘Subtract.’
Kicked off by previously released singles ‘Eyes Closed‘ and ‘Boat,’ the era’s seen the GRAMMY winner take to TV, Web, print, radio, and more in promotion of the forthcoming opus – his first studio effort since 2021’s ‘Equals.‘ As if that’s not enough, Sheeran’s dedicated fans – affectionately called #Sheerios – are anxiously awaiting the premiere of his four-part Disney+ documentary, ‘‘Ed Sheeran: The Sum of It All,’ that will begin streaming on May 3.
Just in case music lovers need even more from the chart-topping superstar, he’s set to begin the North American leg of his global ‘Mathematics‘ stadium tour on May 6 – a massive jaunt that’s now incorporating more intimate, theater dates in its itinerary.

Post Malone is setting the record straight.
The ‘Rockstar’ chart-topper took to social media to address the chatter around his body. Specifically his weight loss.
Currently rocking stages on the ‘Twelve Carat Tour,’ the performer’s new look has magnetized ample discussion.
Now, the 27-year-old has broken his silence on the matter.

Big Freedia has unleashed a big collaboration.
The Queen of Bounce has teamed with Ciara for her brand new single ‘$100 Bill.’
A melodic empowerment anthem, the track sees the forces trade verses over production that blends their unique styles.
Speaking on the track, Big Freedia said:
“’$100 Bill’ is about feelin like new money hot off the press! Big money! Feelin fresh and extra fabulous, but mostly about feeling good in your own skin. Owning your walk, your talk, your scent, your ride, anything that makes you feel like your best self.
Ciara and I have been talking about working together for a while, so this track was perfect with her.”
CiCi, who teased a collab of her own with Freedia named ‘Winning’ earlier this year, added:
“The first time I heard this song I thought the melodies were infectious. But also, even before that, Freedia and I have had such an amazing chemistry since we met, we both talked about working together. I asked Freedia to join my song ‘Winning’, and we definitely had winning energy on that record, and I feel like that energy has continued on $100 Bill. The record is melodic, it’s a song for everyone from little kids to the grandmas, it just makes you feel joy.”

Readers of That Grape Juice know how passionate we are about music – whether that be past or present.
However, unlike our other segments – Retro Rewind, TGJ Replay, and From The Vault – The Pop Stop is the most in-depth look at Pop songs that may have flown under the radar over the last week that you should know, rather they be from music’s biggest stars or those on the rise.
This week, we want to highlight cuts from Jess Glynne, Jackson Wang, Taeyang, and JOSEPH .

Jason Derulo is dropping hot new music just in time for summer courtesy of his latest release, ‘Glad U Came.’
Produced by Pink Slip, Jakke Erixson, Sam Martin, Spencer Bastian, and Tor Eimon, the sizzling tune tells the story of being at the right place at the right time for love.
“Ooh, if we wouldn’t have danced all night (All night, danced all night) / Ooh, then we wouldn’t have talked outside (Outside, outside) / Out of all the things you could have done I’m glad you came tonight (Tonight),” Jason croons on the dancefloor-ready track.
Taking to the Web, Derulo doubled down on the song’s meaning.
“‘Glad U Came’ is beautiful love story about the power of destiny,” he said. “It’s one of my favorite songs I’ve ever done. Some songs come easy and some are real work records. I worked on this one for a couple years (started November 2021) chipping away at it, spending time away from it to get fresh perspective then attacking it again. I did this till I felt it was right.”
Arrived to streaming outlets in full on April 28 after ample teasing, dive inside to hear ‘Glad.’
Weeks before Jack Harlow is set to make his first slam dunk at movie box offices with his starring role in the 2023 iteration of ‘White Men Can’t Jump,’ the Kentucky-born rapper is looking to do the same on music charts with his third studio album, ‘Jackman.’
Delivered less than a year after its chart-topping predecessor ‘Come Home the Kids Miss You,’ ‘Jackman’ comes just days after its surprise announcement – an unveiling that sent fans into a frenzy due to being shrouded in mystery (no tracklist, no revelation about contributors).
The lid was officially lifted at midnight on Friday (April 28), however, when the 10-song affair was loaded to streaming outlets.
