‘Small Talk’ singer Katy Perry has been all talk recently as she’s hit the promo trail running in support of the long-awaited follow-up to her last album, ‘Witness’ (2017).

Amping awareness of the set’s official lead single, ‘Daisies,’ ahead of its May 15 premiere, the GRAMMY nominee went on an onslaught of ZOOM interviews to shed light on the The Monsters and the Strangerz-produced cut and its August 14-due parent project.

A standout of her many virtual chats came courtesy of a visit to the Hits Radio Breakfast Team recently where she not only denied the longstanding rumor her former nemesis, Taylor Swift, would guest star on her new LP but also dished on wanting to go college after her daughter is born and more.

After six action-packed seasons, tonight brought with it the penultimate episode of ‘How To Get Away With Murder.’

Anchored by Oscar, Emmy, and Golden Globe winner Viola Davis (in the lead role of Annalise Keating), the Shondaland  drama became renowned  for its jaw-dropping twists, turns, and tornadoes.

But its creator Pete Nowalk saved the most potent for its final episode, which just aired on ABC. 

Heading into season six, viewers were presented with the mystery of #WhoKilledAnnalise while also witnessing the return of actor Alfred Enoch – which, of course, caused for huge question marks given what played out in preceding seasons.

Well, all was answered in seismic fashion. Watch the final moments of ‘How To Get Away With Murder’ below…

With little warning, as we reported here, Future has returned with his eighth studio effort ‘High Off Life.’

A star-studded affair lined with appearances from some of Hip Hop’s heaviest hitters like Young Thug, DaBaby, Lil Uzi Vert, Travis Scott, Meek Mill, and Drake, the project features the 4X platinum megahit, ‘Life is Good’ (which boasts Drizzy as a co-star).

Boasting a whopping 21 tracks, the DJ Esco-executive produced album is Future’s first LP since debuting at No. 1 in January 2019 with ‘The WIZRD.’

After a slew of buzz singles in the form of moderate hits ‘Never Really Over,’ ‘Small Talk,’ ‘Harleys In Hawaii,’ and ‘Never Worn White,’ Pop singer Katy Perry has unleashed the official first single from her fifth studio album.

Titled ‘Daisies,’ the tune was announced last week just days ahead of confirmation its yet-titled parent project was due to hit shelves August 14 (click here to read more about that).

A song about triumphing over trials, its lyrics beam about overcoming obstacles:

“They said I’m going nowhere / Tried to cut me out / Took those sticks and stones / Showed them I could build a house / Tell me that I’m crazy / Never let them change me / So they cover me in daisies,” she proclaims in the chorus.

Designed much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ segments, ‘Replay’ is That Grape Juice‘s retrospective segment – a written quest, if you will, to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday.

Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase entire albums (and eras) from a library of Pop and Urban Pop music hits.

In celebration of the 29th anniversary of its release (May 14), this week we’re reliving the magic of Paula Abdul‘s sophomore album, ‘Spellbound.’

If folks felt part 1 of the ‘Real Housewives Of Atlanta’ reunion brought the heat, part 2 is set to serve serve flames.

As viewers of the Bravo hit know, there’s no love lost between Kenya Moore and Nene Leakes and the latest instalment of season 12’s conclusion sees them at loggerheads.

In a new preview, Moore alleges that Leakes’ husband Gregg has been “messing around with the help.”

As we reported here, Tekashi 6ix9ine sent a warning to Billboard Wednesday (May 13) to let chart officials know his latest single, ‘GOOBA,’ should debut atop next week’s Hot 100 due to its commanding streaming lead against closest competitor ‘Stuck With U’ – the benefit single from Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande.

While not pinpointing the Scooter Braun-managed duo, it was clear who he was alluding to when discussing the “cheating” methods some artists have resorted to for chart glory (including payola and single bundling).

Its likely his stance was reinforced after Amazon announced every purchase of the Bieber and Grande’s tune would see the retail giants donate $5 to the First Responders Children’s Foundation, a nonprofit organization that supports the children and families of first responders and COVID-19 frontline workers through college scholarships and special grants.

A slick, choreographed affair that pays homage to Janet Jackson’s 1990 ‘Alright’ video, it sees Taylor dance up a storm.
