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 Kacey Musgraves, Troye Sivan, Yebba, and Phoebe Bridgers.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are official…again.

The couple stepped out for their first public appearance together since rekindling their romance.

And the event definitely suited the occasion.

The power pair left jaws ajar as they rocked the red carpet at the 78th Annual Venice Film Festival, where Affleck’s new movie ‘The Last Duel’ premiered.

Etched in pop culture history, folk will recall that the pair previously dated in 2002 and were famously billed “Bennifer” by the media. A 2003 wedding was postponed just days before it was meant to take place and the stars officially went their separate ways in 2004.

17 years after first splitting, love has prevailed and we must say they wear it well.

Drake made his grand return to the stage at the 2021 Wireless Festival. 

Armed with the momentum of his chart-topping new album ‘Certified Lover Boy,’ the Hip-Hop titan sprung a surprise on the sold-out crowd at Crystal Palace Park when he appeared during the apex of Future‘s set.

That Grape Juice was on hand and witnessed the eruption of excitement from the 50,000 in attendance when the lights dimmed and the screen projected the message: “Hey Wireless The Boy Is Home.”

In an impassioned speech, Drizzy said:

“I would not have wanted my first show back to be anywhere other than Wireless. I miss you with all my heart. It’s been way too long, I forgot what this feels like.”

Thereafter, he launched into a blazing set comprised of much-loved bops and new gems such as ‘Way 2 Sexy’ from ‘CLB’ – which  Future joined him for.

Wild thoughts is exactly what Rihanna and team must’ve had when conceptualizing the eccentric photo shoot that accompanied her most recent spread in ‘Dazed’ magazine.

Acting as the mag’s covergirl for its 30th anniversary issue, Rih turned heads in a number of designer threads including a ‘joint dress’ – that’s right – a dress designed like marijuana.

When not taking fashion to higher (*ahem*) heights via that custom Jawara Alleyne x Raw Materials outfit, the GRAMMY winner lit up the pages of ‘Dazed’ in Mugler, Burberry, Christian Louboutin, and more.

Look inside to see highlights from the out-of-this-world feature.
