Rah Ali‘s time on ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘, ‘Love & Hip-Hop’ and ‘Black Ink Crew’ makes her one of Reality TV’s more recognisable faces.

Unfortunately, said notoriety hit a sour note recently when she was accused of betraying her friend Remy Ma by appearing in ‘No Frauds‘, the song and visual Ma’s nemesis Nicki Minaj created to diss her in the hottest chapter of their decade-long cold war.

However, Rah has advised those who slammed her supposed betrayal to fall back as all it is not as it seems.

How storylines on ‘Love & Hip Hop’ played a major role in the drama?

Welcome back to TGJ Replay!

Designed much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ features, ‘Replay’ is That Grape Juice‘s newest reflective segment to act as a written quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday. Unlike its TGJ retrospective predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase entire albums (and eras) from a library of pop and Urban pop music hits.

This week we’ll commemorate the 30th anniversary (August 31) of Michael Jackson‘s chart-topping 7th album, ‘Bad.’  Look inside:

That Grape Juice welcomes rising star Alex Who? to The Splash!

Born in Holland to Dutch and Tanzanian parents, the soulful songstress relocated to New York upon catching the attention of Empire Records exec Ghazi Shami.

Since signing with the renown imprint last year, she’s weaved together her mixed mesh of cultural influences (as well as a love for artists such as Nina Simone and Erykah Badu) to form her unique smokey-smooth sound.

Said sound is sonically abundant on her debut EP ‘This Is Who’ – which arrived at retail and on all streaming services today.

Aptly titled, the project – much like her artist name – celebrates the reality that she is more than one thing, more than sound, and more than one “type” of artist.

Ms. Who showcases this on The Splash, serving up stirring showings of Usher‘s ‘U Remind Me’ and her original song ‘Summer In December.’

Your thoughts?

Jason Derulo dominated the spring and summer with ‘Swalla’ and now aims to fly high this Fall with new single ‘If I’m Lucky.’

Issued as the latest taste of the singer’s fifth studio album, the track was launched today with a high-octane lyric video.

Featuring the star himself together with an army of dancers, the clip is choreography heavy and sports a zombie-esque theme.

Per Derulo’s Instagram, all will make sense when the main vid arrives.

In the meanwhile, watch him dance up a storm after the jump…
