‘Blame It on Baby’ hitmaker DaBaby says he’s been falsely blamed (yet again) for assaulting an unsuspecting victim.
Not even two months after catching a lawsuit for slapping a woman at a Florida concert (click here to read), the 28-year-old (born Jonathan Kirk) allegedly laid hands on a Las Vegas driver after a heated argument.
As the story began making its rounds, Kirk and his attorney took to social media to defend his good name.

May 19 marks the 22nd anniversary of one of the most successful singles of all time – Brandy & Monica‘s iconic duet, ‘The Boy Is Mine.’
For commemoration of that occasion and other reasons (see: purported rivalry, occupying similar spaces in music history, etc.), the divas’ longtime fans are calling for them to participate in the ‘VERZUZ’ battle craze to highlight gems from their respectively prized discographies.
As both ladies are hot on the promo trail for their most recent ventures (see: Bran’s new single ‘Baby Mama,’ Mo’s VH1 reality series ‘Friends & Family Hustle’), they’ve both been quizzed on their interest in engaging on the platform.
Look inside to see their responses:
JoJo is strutting on full steam to the release of her fourth studio album ‘good to know,’ which arrives on May 1st.
Ahead of its landing, the singer has unwrapped ‘Lonely Hearts’ as the latest taste of the project.
A scintillating slow jam, the track also packs plenty of knock.
The promo track’s premiere follows the release lead single ‘Man.’

In 2016, singer-songwriter Linda Perry – famous for songs like Christina Aguilera‘s ‘Beautiful,’ P!nk‘s ‘Get the Party Started,’ and more – got drama started when she took to press to say Sheila E. was ‘not relevant’ enough to tribute Prince at the Billboard Music Awards in place of Madonna.
Fast forward to 2020, another performer is echoing Perry’s sentiment – Apollonia Kotero.
Kotero, one of the Purple One’s most memorable female protegés, took to social media ahead of the GRAMMY’s recent CBS salute to the Pop icon to call out Sheila for milking his legacy for attention. She even had a few choice words for the event’s organizers for not inviting his band, The Revolution, to participate in the tribute.

Social media is giving the world access into the minds of racists and their twisted obsession with black people.
This week, a racist teen was expelled from high school after they used Tik Tok to attack the African-Americans community.

As we reported here, John Legend reported his yet-titled seventh studio album would be his sexiest yet. Proof of that has come courtesy of its latest single, ‘Bigger Love’ (believed to be the project’s title track).
The song shares the name of his forthcoming North American tour, which was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The follow-up to the critically acclaimed cut, ‘Actions’ (click here to listen), look inside to hear Legend’s ‘Love’:
With his hit, ‘Toosie Slide,’ Canadian rapper Drake became the second artist in history to debut a single atop the Hot 100 three times over his career – an accomplishment only ‘Queen of Billboard’ Mariah Carey could boast at the time. Later, Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande were able to as well (click here to read more).
Granted, the feat of nabbing multiple openings at the tally’s summit is ultra rare, but many will be surprised to know – even in the current era of streaming – how infrequently any act has premiered a song at the hitlist’s peak position at any point in his or her career. In fact, among the 1,120 #1 hits in Hot 100 history (which dates to Aug. 4, 1958), only 51 of them debuted at the top.
To celebrate Drizzy’s addition to the growing index, That Grape Juice thought it a great time time to salute the hitmakers who broke the ground before and after him.

{Updated 4/8/2021}
Toni Braxton is back!
The R&B legend delivers a care package in the form of new single ‘Do It.’
A delicious slice of grown R&B, the track is the first offering from the GRAMMY winning icon since 2018 album ‘Sex & Cigarettes.’
Speaking on the song, Braxton said:
“I wrote this song about a year ago when a friend was going through the struggles of trying to end a relationship that wasn’t good for her. We have all been through situations like this, when there is really nothing more to say, you know he’s not right and you just need to do what you need to do. There is also an element of hope in the song, that after you do what you need to do things will get better.
During these unprecedented times, make the most of your time indoors with some self-reflection. Now might be a good time to quarantine your heart as well in order to examine what it really needs.”
What are you waiting for? Listen to new Toni below…
Though earning no shortage of critical acclaim upon its January 9 release, Alicia Keys‘ ‘Underdog’ – the second single from her long-awaited seventh studio album, ‘A.L.I.C.I.A.’ – was commercially panned.
Struggling to a #93 peak on the Hot 100, the Johnny McDaid-produced cut – which boasts chart-topper Ed Sheeran among its list of songwriters – seemed poise to suffer the same fate as its Miguel-assisted predecessor, ‘Show Me Love’ (which peaked at #90).
In an ironic twist of fate, ‘Underdog’s chart story could be set to reverse. Response to the global coronavirus pandemic, the very reason the release date of the song’s parent project was postponed (click here to read more), is giving it an unexpected second wind.
