With SZA‘s musical star burning bright, the songstress has been tapped to shine in other arenas.

Case in point, her status as the new face of GAP.

Joined by the likes of Metro Boomin and British beauty Maya Jama, the ‘Love Galore’ singer stuns in the clothing brand’s new TV commercial spot.

 

Set to a remix of the Thompson Twins’ ‘Hold Me Now,’ the commercial sees the SZA-led clan celebrate the various logos the company has worn over its 50 year history. All of which form part of a fresh range.

Speaking on the venture, the Grammy nominee said:

“I definitely don’t know how I low-key got gifted the opportunity to be involved [with GAP], just because they’re super iconic and have only worked with iconic people.

It ended up being something really beautiful. It’s like anything is possible. “

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

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

This week we’re cruising back to 2000 for a look at Missy Elliott‘s ‘Hot Boyz.’  Found on her 1999-released sophomore effort, ‘Da Real World,’ the Lil Mo-featured album cut of ‘Boyz’ was already a fan favorite before it was officially released in November of that year.  Thanks to a remix featuring fellow rappers Nas, Eve, and Q-Tip, and a cinematic-style visual the rapstress was quickly becoming known for, the tune blasted to #1 peak on rap charts and #5 peak on the Hot 100 (where it was found this week the following year).

Becoming her first top 5 single as a leading act, the song – some 18 years later – remains a leader among her wealth of hits and still gets crowds moving.  Your reminder awaits inside:
