When he isn’t guiding the force that is Christina Aguilera‘s career, music manager Irving Azoff can be found building the machine he no doubt hopes will churn out success for his new client Gwen Stefani.
On Monday, the industry power player spoke in a panel at New York’s Advertising Week where he handed the world brand new details on the singer’s comeback album, even going as far as to say where she is recording it!
Everything he said, and more, below…
His debut EP may have pulled in 15 million streams since December 2012, but fans of R&B singer Elijah Blake would have been a tad delusional if they believed that would guarantee success on a sales front when he made his new music available for purchase.
For, as Jennifer Lopez‘ ‘Booty’ current iTunes’ position of #93 proves, getting music lovers to buy music they can stream for free is anything but a walk in the park.
Fortunately for Blake, his aforementioned fans have come through, landing him a spot in iTunes R&B’s Top 20, proving that they’re more than willing to put their money where their mouths are.
Details below…
‘2 On’ touter Tinashe will next week release her premiere album ‘Aquarius’.
Given the air of must-see created around the rising star, many have been eager to hear what her first full length project would be serving up. Would it be more club geared ala ‘2 On’ or mellower in the vain of current single ‘Pretend’?
Well, wonder more because the songstress has teamed up with our friends over at Dazed Digital to give folk a chance to try before they buy with a full stream of the LP.
Check it out below…
One is talented, gifted, and skilled at what she does. The other is Kim Kardashian.
Ciara was spotted posing it up with the socialite at Paris Fashion Week today.
Together, the stunners embraced fashion force Riccardo Tisci – who serves as the creative director of Givenchy. The ‘Body Party’ singer is his muse.
We’ve said it already this week, but we’ll continue to echo it: CiCi is looking like a bag of money and good living. Let’s hope she brings these edgy looks to the table when she returns to the music scene; a return she’s openly been working on.
New video alert!
As his sophomore EP ‘Drift’ rise on iTunes USA‘s R&B albums tally, Elijah Blake unwraps the visual for his new single ‘Strange Fruit‘, pulled from the Jhene Aiko-approved project.
With director Sean Alexander, Blake delivers an Adam & Eve inspired story set in his very own Garden of Eden, filled with snakes, temptation and a look just as dark as the haunting bop it was shot to support.
Why everyone and their mom is raving about the EP and its brand new video?
Take a bite below…
Nick Jonas sure knows how to tease and titillate his audience.
The rising star flashes flesh a-front of ‘Flaunt’ magazine, which he appears on in support of new single ‘Jealous’.
Blazing both radio and iTunes, the Urban-flavoured cut is poised to be hit for the former Jonas Brothers member. And justifiably so. We’ve had it on replay here at TGJ HQ.
It’s landed!
After weeks of waiting, fans of R&B sensation Mila J can now enjoy the official video for her new single ‘My Main’, featuring Ty Dolla $ign!
Is it any good? Does it do enough to support her forthcoming ‘M.I.LA’ ep?
The answer to those questions…below!
A multitude of festivals pervade the Summer months. However, few have the magnetic pull of the Made In America Festival.
And it’s with good reason too.
Since launching in 2012, the likes of Beyonce, Jay Z, and D’Angelo have rocked the two-day extravaganza – which was exactly that this year. For, major names such as Hip-Hop titan Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell and Kanye West were tapped to play the event that took place over the August 30th – 31st weekend in both Philadelphia and Los Angeles.
As such, we were Made in America bound. Especially, as some of our favorites and yours – including Iggy Azalea and Rita Ora – also featured on the bill. What’s more, with Lamar’s stage show – in particular – being super renown for its must-see factor, we were most certainly going to be rocking out at LA Grand Park. Kendrick Lamar will also be headlining the BACARDI Triangle event, another must see coming up this Halloween.
So, be sure to keep it all the way locked on That Grape Juice for our exclusive Made In America travel diary – which will chronicle our trip from our London HQ to the City Of Angels, LA! A departure from your “regularly scheduled programming” here? Perhaps. However, it’ll sure make for a great read.
And that’s not all. We’re giving YOU our readers the chance to win a trip of a lifetime to Bermuda courtesy of BACARDI! As ardent lovers of music, That Grape Juice and BACARDI have paired up to give you the chance to attend a once in a lifetime musical experience. In honor of the year of their creation (1862), BACARDI are sending 1862 guests to the Bermuda Triangle for a 3-day/cross-genre music spectacle featuring Kendrick Lamar, among others. And with the TDE rapper gearing up to unleash new single ‘i’ on the masses, as well as a new album, it’s a given that he’ll be bringing the fire to the already scorching bill (which also includes Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding).

The martial arts movie ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon‘ is to welcome the release of a sequel it has emerged today, set for launch via Netflix in 2015.
Details on ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Green Legend’ below…
The Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin is back at it.
As previously reported, the legendary singer will release ‘Aretha Franklin Sings The Diva Classics’ on October 21st and is leading the charge with first single ‘Rolling In The Deep’ – her take on Adele’s smash hit.
Backed by a full band which included Whitney Houston‘s mother Cissy (pictured below, left), the 72-year-old took to the stage on the Late Show With David Letterman last night to perform ‘Deep’ – which she inter-spliced with Motown classic ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’.
Peep the performance below…
Pop chanteuse Nicole Scherzinger will release her sophomore solo album ‘Big Fat Lie’ on October 20th in the UK.
And while the date of the US roll-out for the LP has yet to be confirmed, the former Pussycat Doll is giving Stateside fans a taste of the project by releasing her first American single from the set – ‘Run’.
A marked departure from the dancier songs serviced to the European audience (see: ‘Your Love’ and ‘On Th Rocks’), the track is a powerful ballad. Will it endear her home market to her cause, though?
You be the judge after the jump…
Versatility.
It’s a trait Jessie J posses in earnest. For, while able to belt out blazers such as ‘Bang Bang’ and ‘Burnin’ Up’, the skilled songstress is also capable of slowing it down and serving up restrained vulnerability. Case in point new song ‘Personal’.
The haunting cut has been debuted as a promo track from J’s hotly anticipated new album ‘Sweet Talker’ – which arrives on October 13th in the UK and a day later in the US.
