With Christina Aguilera reportedly readying a grittier, Hip-Hop skewed LP, one has to wonder whether the chart-topping chanteuse was scoping out new sounds at Drake and Lil Wayne‘s concert last night.

The diva – who gave birth to baby Summer Rain four weeks ago, was snapped enjoying the Los Angeles stop of the tour with fiance Matt Rutler, her choreographer Jeri Slaughter, and friends.

Randomness perhaps, but are we the only ones who’d love to see Xtina team up with Drakey? If indeed, she is leaning towards a more throwback sound, Drizzy is skillfully versatile and could lend  his talents to her newest offerings in a compelling way. Just thinking out aloud.

Peep another fun pic below…

Here at That Grape Juice, we have a penchant for serving up the new-new on some of your favourite artists. Yet, we’re ever keen to spotlight the new names making waves.

As such, our latest Freshly Squeezed talent is…Jharee Stephens.

Aged just 18, the singer, songwriter, and dancer triangulates her abilities in a way that has the industry a’buzzing. Indeed, she omits a confidence beyond her years and performs in a manner than commands attention.

She showcases this in earnest on her  brand new single ‘Pull Up’ – which was penned by Kaleena Harper (Dirty Money) and produced by Ambience. 

We’re liking what we see from the rising star. Are you? Peep the video for ‘Pull Up’ above and let us – as ever – know what you think below…

Having wrapped up a collaboration with one queen, is Nicki Minaj readying a duet with another?

The diva shared a snap of herself posing it up with Pop royal Madonna early today with the caption:

My trip to New York isn’t the same unless I bump into the Queen. #BitchItsMadonna

Of course, it’s anyone’s guess what the stars were up to. But with both cooking up new albums, ‘The Pink Print’ for Minaj and ‘Unapologetic Bitch’ for Madge (tentative title), a collaboration wouldn’t go amiss – if…it’s better than their previous efforts ‘Give Me All Your Love’ and ‘I Don’t Give A’. Two mediocre tunes from the dreadful ‘MDNA’.

Love & Hip Hop’ alum K. Michelle may be hard at work on a new album with the backing of former Lady GaGa manager Troy Carter, but it would seem she still has enough time in her day to clap back at any who choose to slam her online.

Tonight, Soulja Boy learned that lesson and is unlikely to ever forget it.

What went down?

*Pinned: Posts Resume Below As Normal*

With many hailing Brandy as the definitive Vocal Bible, it’s only natural that a bellowing buzz has greeted the news that she’s working on her seventh studio album.

The singer/actress has made no secret of the fact that her life has “changed” of late, with the emotions she experienced following said occurrence set to serve as the foundation of the new LP.

As such, when we caught up with the star at the Hollywood Confidential event in Los Angeles recently, we had to ask about the project and, of course, her other upcoming plans – including her return to ‘The Game’ on BET.

Check out our EXCLUSIVE interview with Brandy above and be sure to let us know what you think below…

With Fifth Harmony‘s debut album ‘Reflection’ now due in December (following an initial November release), it appears the quintet are putting weight of their promotional push behind lead single ‘Bo$$’.

The ladies latest stop was BET’s flagship countdown show 106 & Park today, where they performed the high-octane number and chatted it up with host Keisha Chante after.

Watch Normani, Camilla, Dinah, Lauren, and Ally in action below…

Smash hit is likely to be the the first words that come to mind when one hears Azealia Banks‘ brand new single, packing a sound that flaunts her vocal chops and ability to release radio-friendly jams following her departure from ‘Interscope.

Its name? ‘Chasing Time’, delivered to the world minutes ago!

Why it won’t be long before this lyric juggling performer reaches the heights she should have arrived at in 2011?

Good music below…
