A year after threatening to retire from the music industry, Lil Uzi Vert surprised fans with the release of his long-awaited sophomore album, ‘Eternal Atake,’ on Friday (March 6).

Teased in earnest in the days ahead of its arrival (see:  short film, revelation of multiple covers, etc.), the 18-track set – originally projected to hit shelves March 13 – sees the rapper (born Symere Woods) take center stage as the effort only boasts one feature (The Internet’s Syd).

Now, after just two days of availability, industry analysts are already predicting blockbuster opening numbers for the project.  Going head to head with Urban superstars Megan Thee Stallion and Jhené Aiko, see just how many units Woods is set to shift by the end of ‘Atake’s inaugural sales tracking week:

The Billboard 200’s top 5 is set to see some serious girl power next week thanks to two of Urban music’s most highly anticipated sets – Jhené Aiko‘s third album, ‘Chilombo,’ and Megan Thee Stallion‘s, ‘Suga.’

The former, the first effort from Aiko since peaking at #5 with 2017’s ‘Trip,’ is already winning on the critical front as it’s nabbed thumbs up from some of the industry’s most respected critics.  A star-studded, 20-song affair featuring the likes of Nas, Big Sean, H.E.R., John Legend, Ab-Soul, Ty Dolla $ign, Future, Miguel, and more, analysts are reporting early reads of ‘Chilombo’s sales suggest the LP could deliver the highest Billboard 200 premiere of her career to date.

Conversely, ‘Suga’ – the newest EP from Stallion – may have a limited guest list (only Kehlani and rapper Gunna), but what it lacks in features it makes up in star power behind the board.  Boasting production credits from The Neptunes, Timbaland, Lil Ju, J-White, Helluva, Tommy Brown, and more, predictive data suggests ‘Suga’ could be the first Billboard top 5 entry of the Houston hottie’s career.

We’re pretty sure by now you are well acquainted with the fact that it is girls who run the world.

It’s International Women’s Day today, so what better way to honor all the ladies of music with an all-encompassing effort from none other than The Voice herself.

This week, we give you Whitney Houston’s take on ‘I’m Every Woman.’

The second single from 92’s monumental ‘The Bodyguard’ OST, ‘Woman’ was originally recorded in 1979 by funky diva Chaka Khan.

Written by legendary duo Simpson and Ashford, the reworking was produced by Narada Michael Walden and has a slow-paced introduction before bursting into a 90’s House music affair.

While the original version was considered a hit, peaking at #21 on the Billboard Hot 100, Houston’s incarnation bested it on the charts, reaching #4 in the US. Funnily, the project’s previous single ‘I Will Always Love You’ was still number one when the song reached its peak position.

Worldwide, ‘Woman’ strutted to #2 in Canada, #4 in the UK and #11 in both France and Australia. Talk about a global hit.

A very pregnant Nippy can be seen performing the song in an empty theater for the tune’s visual. With an all-female cast – which includes her mother Cissy, then-budding superstars TLC as well as Chaka Khan herself – Ms. Houston showed the world, like numerous women before her, that they can and should do everything they want, whenever they choose to.

As a voice, That Grape Juice has always been about women empowerment, solidarity and gender-equality. Though there is still a lot of work to be made, we’re glad more ladies are given the opportunity to be heard through their art but also beyond it.

To all the women, from those we know to the ones we intensely stan, we thank you for inspiring us over the years, and hope you can continue to fight with resilience, agility and class.
