‘A Star Is Born’ is losing none of its shine at the box office – a month on from release.

Indeed, the Lady Gaga led flick and its accompanying soundtrack have remained in the upper echelon of charts across the globe. So much so that it’s widely being touted as a top contender at the Oscars, Grammys, and many other awards.

One of the songs powering its domination is ‘Always Remember Us This Way’ – a video for which has just been unwrapped.

Sure ‘Shallow’ has been the project’s undeniable touchdown, however it’s notable that ‘Always’ has been a firm fixture in the iTunes top 10 in the US and globally. Has the LP birthed its next big smash? Watch the video below and let us know…

The ever-elusive Sade has made a rare return to the spotlight in support of Steve McQueen‘s new movie ‘Widows.’ 

She’s produced an all-new track titled ‘The Big Unknown,’ which plays during the end-credits of the Viola Davis led flick.

As with most things “Sade,” this wasn’t a musical submission by the numbers. The semantics of the film – which is rooted in female agency and independence – informed the creation of the song.

That Grape Juice attended the MOBO screening of ‘Widows’ in London and were privy to a Q&A with McQueen.

During the sit-down, the award-winning director discussed deep conversations about the importance of the movie’s message with Sade, her love for the TV original, and more.
