JaQuel Knight, one of the minds behind Beyonce‘s magic, is on the hunt for new talent and is launching his search this month.
Fans may have thought Grammy-nominated songstress Keyshia Cole had literally reached the ‘point of no return’ when her 2014 album of the same name not only delivered the lowest first week sales of her career to date (read more about that by clicking here), but went on to clock the lowest overall sales of any of her previous efforts. A harsh blow for an otherwise consistent seller, especially amongst her Urban counterparts, the nonperformance of the LP – in addition to a host of personal dramas – acted as catalysts for the R&B chanteuse to go back to the drawing board and regroup.
After the two years that followed ‘Return’ rendered rumored singles and reported few false starts, the late 2016 announcement of the singer’s relocation to Epic Records signaled the surest sign of a full on return. Lo and behold, by February 2017, Cole put the rumors to rest by officially lifting the lid on her long-awaited new single – ‘You’ (featuring rappers Remy Ma & French Montana)…

Over the years, That Grape Juice has established a distinguished voice that – whether loved or loathed – sparks discussion, debate, and on occasion drama!

If iTunes receipts are anything to judge by, Britney Spears and Tinashe fans are apparently snoozing on the divas’ duet, ‘Slumber Party.’
The tune – the latest lifted from Spears ill-fated 9th opus ‘Glory’ – saw its buzz reach a feverish pitch when its sexy, ‘Eyes Wide Shut’-inspired accompanying music video was unveiled. That buzz, thanks to the AMAs and more, has quickly cooled and quelled after just three days.
Stats inside:
DJ Mustard has a lot to smile about.
In a time when folk are questioning the existence of “super producers,” the California native is proving himself music’s go-to hitmaker.

It’s that time of year again!
Indeed, the air is still buzzing as yesterday brought with it the highly anticipated 2016 Grammy nominations unveiled, per usual, via an announcement special weeks before the actual showing. But, what also comes with the ‘per usual’ announcement are the jaw-dropping surprises, snubs, and all out “shut-outs” that accompany the annual spectacle.
Always a heated debate-starter, the coveted tally saw the likes of Janet Jackson, Jill Scott, Rihanna, Madonna, and more all go without mention.

In the meantime, tuck in below for our list of other surprises and snubs:

Her sighting comes after she revealed that Janet Jackson isn’t the only Pop icon she’d love to collaborate with.
