‘Rebel’ wailer Lauryn Hill has long proven herself a rebel against promptness, punctuality, and timeliness.  Yet, for Pittsburgh fans who opted to ignore the complaints of countless cities before them, they found out firsthand on January 31st when the songstress was so late to her own show in the ‘Steel City’ many assumed she was a “no-show.”

Appearing on stage over 3 hours after her scheduled time, angry Pittsburgh fans took to Twitter to voice their frustration and, in the process, ignited an onslaught of memes and mockery across the social media platform.  Apparently some of the negative attention reached the desk of Ms. Hill who, in response, lifted an apology to her official Twitter account recently.

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’ll press play again on ‘Together Again’ – the second single from Janet Jackson‘s #1 album, ‘Velvet Rope.’  Holding down the top spot on the Hot 100 this week 19 years ago, the house-inspired tune was birthed after the death of Jackson’s dear friend who succumbed to AIDS.  Becoming her 8th overall #1 single on the tally, ‘Together’ went on to platinum status and has endured as a fan favorite from her prized discography.

Rap trio Migos’ inaugural chart-topper, ‘Bad & Boujee,’ is proving itself no fly-by-night hit.

Flown to the top of charts (like its predecessor ‘Black Beatles’ by Rae Sremmurd) thanks to a viral response on social media, ‘Bad’ can also thank some serious streaming and fair digital sales for keeping it atop the charts for a 3rd non-consecutive week.

Billboard reports:

“The track tops the Streaming Songs chart for a fifth week with 47 million U.S. streams in the week ending Jan. 26, according to Nielsen Music. It also leads the audio subscription services-based On-Demand Streaming Songs chart for a fifth week (19.7 million on-demand clicks).

“Bad” rebounds 4-3 on Digital Song Sales (51,000 downloads sold, down 25 percent) and jumps 27-23 on Radio Songs, gaining by 20 percent to 49 million in airplay audience.”
