Readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.

So, as our retrospective segments, ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay,’  allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, our latest feature –  Chart Rewind – serves as a variation of our Retro Rewind assay to salute an entire era of music history.

In honor of her 39th birthday, this week we’re revisiting ‘Baby Boy’ – the second single from Beyoncé‘s debut solo album, ‘Dangerously In Love.’

As of hopping on the remix to Chloe & Halle‘s signature hit, ‘Do It,’ wasn’t enough to make Doja Cat fans smile (click here to listen), the ‘Say So’ hitmaker’s pounced on yet another highly anticipated tune:  Ozuna‘s ‘Del Mar.’

Bringing ‘Chandelier’-swinging singer-songwriter Sia along for the ride, the tune is found aboard O’s fourth studio album ‘ENOC.’

Big Sean enlists his boo Jhené Aiko and fellow hitmaker Ty Dolla $ign to play assistants on his new song, ‘Body Language.’

Found aboard his September 4-released new album ‘Detroit 2,’ the song samples Shawn Harris‘ hit ‘Soulful Moaning‘ and sees Sean show off his vocal prowess.

“Don’t just take your clothes off / Take the problems off, take the armor off, take all the drama off,” he sings.

Ahead of the premiere of its accompanying, Devin Williams-directed music video, the 32-year-old has invited his devoted fans to take a sneak peek at the clip.

Only a week after announcing his album would drop before Fall arrived, controversial rapper 6ix9ine‘s lifted the lid on a 13-track LP titled ‘TattleTales.’

8 years after unveiling the ‘Detroit’ mixtape (arguably his most critically acclaimed effort to date), Big Sean lifts the lid on its conceptual successor – ‘Detroit 2.’

A 21-track affair featuring an all-star list of guest stars including Lil Wayne, Post Malone, Eminem, Travis Scott, Wale, Jhené Aiko, Young Thug, and more, ‘Detroit 2’ comes as his first studio effort since 2017’s Billboard 200 chart-topping, ‘I Decided.’

Preceded by well-received singles ‘Harder Than My Demons,’ ‘Deep Reverence’ (featuring Nipsey Hussle), and more (click here to watch their respective music videos), look inside for your first listen to Sean’s new project.

Finally!

It’s been three years since SZA dominated R&B radio with tunes from her uber-GRAMMY nominated debut album, ‘CTRL.’

In the time since, the songstress has seen most of her releases tied to specialty projects and soundtracks – a move that’s only increased calls for her inaugural LP’s official follow-up.

Despite recently describing the relationship with her label as ‘hostile’ (as we reported here), she’s finally lifted the lid on new music.  Enter ‘Hit Different,’ the Ty Dolla $ign-assisted new track presumed to be the first single from SZA’s yet-titled new project.

It’s ladies night and feeling’s right!

A little over a month ago (as we reported here), Doja Cat went on record to say she’d love to do a remix to Chloe x Halle‘s breakout hit, ‘Do It.’ The tune, which serves as the first single from the sister act’s sophomore album, ‘Ungodly Hour’ (click here to stream), is the first and only song in their short but storied discography that’s impacted the Hot 100 (to date).

In an effort to push the Scott Storch-produced bop past its previous #83 peak on the tally, they not only granted Cat’s wish but added fellow femcees City Girls and newcomer Mulatto on the remix and made it an all-female affair.

Curious to hear what the trio of acts added to ‘Do It’? Click below to hear:
