Last year’s American Idol winner Candice Glover returned “home” last night.

The vocal powerhouse lived up to her billing, serving up a stirring rendition of ‘Cried’ – which is lifted from her debut album ‘Music Speaks’.

With the LP having landed in stores this, can the performance help shift units? Time will tell. What is certain, though, is that Candice’s performance awaits after the jump…

VICKIE WINANS-THATGRAPEJUICE

We’re certain if you’ve even heard a hint of gospel music over the last three decades then you’ve encountered at least one gem from the genre’s legendary songbird Vickie Winans.  Her catalog is equipped with an arsenal of hits like ‘Already Been To The Water’, ‘Long As I Got King Jesus’, ‘Shake Yourself Loose’, and ‘No Cross, No Crown’ just to name a few.

Now, with 14 albums, a trophy case of top industry honors, comedy albums and DVDs, and fashion under her decorative belt, the belter still finds ways to venture into new territory.  This time, the gospel diva follows her dreams of acting.

Making her debut aboard the Lionsgate Home Entertainment inspirational film ‘Dreams’ (available everywhere January 28th), That Grape Juice recently caught up with the hardest working woman in the gospel music industry to talk about the film, her dream of starring alongside Robert De Niro, new music, her love of pop superstar Beyonce, and so much more!

Responsible for many a cool sound spawned by Beyonce, Brandy, Usher and Kelly Rowland, Rico Love’s habit of building R&B music that transcends genre lines has brought him more success than most maybe aware of.

Now, in an interview with ‘The Feature Presentation‘, the ‘Sweet Dreams‘ producer has detailed his journey to the top, going a long way help aspiring creatives understand the lucrative business that is music publishing, soundtrack building and his enviable arrangement with Jimmy Iovine‘s ‘Interscope.’

The above, being one of the reasons we’ve billed this interview a ‘must see.’

For, his time with the outlet also saw him dish on the criticism Jay Z faces for continuing his business dealings with  Barney’s, a company now under fire following claims they falsely accused two African-American shoppers of committing credit card fraud after they made large but legal in-store purchases.

Love’s thoughts on the matter? An interesting explanation as to why boycotting one company on the grounds of racism does little to combat the problem, and why the African-American community should turn its attention to the gun-selling pawnshops, alcohol pouring liquor stores and lack of inner-city education resources that stifles the progression of its youth.

Just over two months before the 56th Annual Grammy Awards take place at LA’s Staples Center, Hits Daily Double have revealed which acts they believe are most likely to score nominations and pick up awards on the star studded night.

Which acts they believe the committee will honour next year?

She may lack the acclaim afforded to the Pink‘s, GaGa‘s and Beyonce‘s of the world, but there’s no denying the power that lies in Pop sensation Rihanna and ever fruitful brand.

Indeed,while she’s yet to spawn a performance or cultural movement that earned Janet Jackson and Madonna their ‘icon’ badges, the power that lies in the singer’s name has seen her top Billboard’s ‘Hot Tours’ tally, after her ‘Diamonds World Tour’ reached heights that may give many of her rivals good reason to consider her a potent threat.

Good news below…

Following the Platinum flavoured success of Justin Timberlake‘s album series ‘The 20/20 Experience’, it’s little surprise that the Pop force has been a staple at every major US award show this year.

It’s a trajectory that looks set to continue; for, it has just been announced that JT will be taking to the stage at the 2013 American Music Awards on November 24th.
