Which elusive chanteuse shared this snap of herself with fans on Facebook earlier on today?
Hint: This Southern belle is said to have made a fortune from hits she penned for the likes of Ciara, Beyonce, Usher…and herself.
Still not sure who she is?
All will be revealed below!
Her fans may be confused by her current album campaign, but it’s clear that it’ll take more than confusion to get in the way of Rihanna fans and their support for the Grammy winning singer.
For, even without a supporting music video or physical promotion in the market, the star’s ‘Bitch Better Have My Money’ has found a spot in the UK’S Top 40.
Good news after the jump…
Ciara isn’t the only Sony siren making moves on TV this year.
For, Christina Aguilera has joined the cast of the hit series ‘Nashville’, set to rock the show with the character Jade St. John when she makes her debut on the platform tonight!
Fortunately, her role on the ABC series is to serve up more than a new role for the singer, as it’s also brought with it the release of brand new music!

Tonight marked the return of BET’s highly anticipated ode to women of color ‘Black Girls Rock.’
Much like its ‘BET Honors’ counterpart, the event enlists some of music’s best and brightest performers to serenade and shine light on women of color who have made impacts on and in their respective personal and professional communities.
Airing moments ago, the Tracee Ellis Ross / Regina King hosted showing honored actress the legendary Erykah Badu and many more through a collection of stage-blazing performances from the likes of Ciara, Jill Scott, Sheila E., Faith Evans, Fantasia, and more!
Tuck in below to see the highlights from one of Urban entertainment’s biggest nights:
Over the years, That Grape Juice has established a distinguished voice that – whether loved or loathed – sparks discussion, debate, and on occasion drama!
Though comprised of seasoned writers who share a similar outlook on Urban Pop culture, the idiosyncrasies of the TGJ team members often lend for quite heated debates “behind the scenes” about the hottest topics.
Now, we give you a front row seat to the show. In a format similar to ‘The View’ or ‘The Real’, TGJ editors – Sam, David, Rashad, and Joe – get real in a very candid way.
Today’s roundtable topic asks…
After building a solo force out of Justin Timberlake following his departure from ‘NSync, the music manager Johnny Wright has set his sights on One Direction dropout Zayn Malik, offering him advice he feels will help fare just as well as his ‘Cry Me a River’ client.

After seeing singles from her first two albums secure a whole lotta love from Top 40 radio, Nicki Minaj has looked on as her latest offering, ‘The Pinkprint’, struggles to see similar success on the format.
We doubt she cares though.
For, the Hip-Hop flavoured set has seen its singles catch and collect numerous Gold and Platinum certifications without it and has now seen her surpass Urban heavy weights Beyonce & Rihanna on Urban radio.

Enter Natalie La Rose!
Dutch-bred and now LA based, the rising star has been rocketing her way up the iTunes tally with infectious new single ‘Somebody (ft. Jerimih).’
The club banger marks the first release for the performer, who is making waves as Republic Records’ newest female signing.
In an industry where competition is rife, boldness is a key component to standing out from the crowd. Boldness being a trait the 26-year old is well-acquainted with. For, her journey began in 2011 when she marched up to Flo Rida at an ESPY party and informed him that they were going to work together. The next day they did.
Fast forward four years and La Rose’s plans for stardom finally are coming to fruition. Not without its stumbles (she was signed to Interscope as part of a duo only to be dropped shortly after), the singer’s persistence is paying off. Now co-signed to Flo’s imprint – International Music Group (I.M.G), the performer is poised to score a big Billboard touchdown with ‘Somebody.’
Though touting Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder, and Michael Jackson as her influences, we here at TGJ feel she is more so carved from the mould of the Janet Jackson‘s and Ciara‘s and will ultimately appeal to those with an affinity to said names.
Keen to ensure her own name leaves a mark, La Rose’s ultimately wants her narrative to inspire others to be diligent with the pursuit of their dreams. She says:
“If you want something, you have to fight for it. That’s what I did. I want to show everybody living your dream is possible. I want to leave people with smiles on their faces, inspire them, and move them.”
Check out the video for ‘Somebody’ above and let us know what you think of Ms. La Rose below…
