Welcome to the latest TGJ Roundtable!

Over the years, That Grape Juice has established a distinguished voice that – whether loved or loathed – sparks discussion, debate, and on occasion drama!

Though comprised of seasoned writers who share a similar outlook on Urban Pop culture, the idiosyncrasies of the TGJ team members often lend for quite heated debates “behind the scenes” about the hottest topics.

Now, we give you a front row seat to the show. In a format similar to ‘The View’ or ‘The Real’, TGJ editors – Sam, David, Rashad, and Joe – get real in a very candid way.

Today’s roundtable topic asks…

What were your Grammy Awards 2015 Hits & Misses?

When they aren’t impressing TV lovers on VH1’s ‘Love & Hip Hop Hollywood’, R&B royals Lil Fizz and Omarion can be found in and around the city of Los Angeles…and this week was no different.

For, this weekend saw the pair enjoy Grammy festivities with an appearance at Greystone Manor (which was rendered all the more hotter thanks to Hennessy). There they rubbed shoulders with O’s Maybach Music boss Rick Ross, posing for the picture posted above sans B2K members Raz B and J. Boog.

Cop a gander of Beyonce!

The superstar diva and husband Jay Z got playful with their poses backstage at the Grammy Awards last night.

It’s no surprise why King B is buzzed; not only did she win three awards (including Best R&B Song for ‘Drunk In Love’), she hit a total of 20 Grammy wins in the process, and became the most nominated artist in the show’s 57 year history.

Word has it the recording of Rihanna‘s eighth album has been anything but smooth, hence the myriad of delays that have plagued the project.

However, it seems the star may have found her musical knight in shining armour in the form of Roc Nation comrade – Kanye West.

The #Beyhive are in overdrive tonight!

Indeed, before attacking 2015 ‘Album of the Year’ winner Beck for besting Beyonce‘s self-titled album in the coveted category, the group had their sights set on powerhouse vocalist Frenchie Davis for reportedly slamming the Grammy committee for picking the ‘Single Ladies’ singer to sing as part of its ‘Selma’ tribute.

As reported here, despite the film featuring singer Ledisi portraying Mahalia Jackson and covering her popular version of ‘Precious Lord’ for its accompanying soundtrack, the ceremony opted for Bey to perform the tune…even with Ledisi sitting in the audience.

Before the show took place, Entertainment Tonight caught up with the ‘Pieces of Me’ singer to get a piece of her mind on the decision.  This, as the #Beyhive continued a two day attack on the former ‘American Idol’ contestant, Davis, for lending her support via Twitter:

What started as a dream come true for ‘Loser’ singer Beck is turning into a Twitter nightmare as the multi-Grammy award winning rocker – who has over 2 decades of hits included two albums listed aboard Rolling Stone’s ‘500 Greatest Albums of All Time’ list – has found himself on the receiving end of a bevy of #Beystings as imparted by the ever-faithful fanbase of songstress Beyonce.

After his most 2014 release ‘Morning Phase’ trumped the 20-time winning diva’s self-titled effort for ‘Album of the Year’ at this Sunday’s ceremony,  the #Beyhive went into attack mode on Twitter…even updating the singer’s Wikipedia page with insults.

As the #Beyhive keeps Twitter abuzz over Beyonce‘s ‘Album of the Year’ loss, one of its more famous members – Kanye West – joins in the fight for #justiceforBeyonce via a fiery interview with E!.  

After ‘Loser’ hitmaker Beck won Album of the Year over the ‘Drunk in Love’ diva at Sunday night’s ceremony, the unpredictable Yeezy jokingly rushed the stage in what appeared to be a repeat of his infamous Taylor Swift upstage at the 2009 MTV VMAs.

After laughing off the joke, Beck continued to accept his award – much to #Beyhive dismay.  Later, a backstage interview proved that Yeezy wasn’t in much of a laughing mood, despite letting the rock singer have his moment on television:
