As his talent and hit-making habits continue to place him at the forefront of R&B, Trey Songz‘ journeyed to the new technological heights recently, when he joined mentor Kevin Liles to trial ‘Google Glass.’

Led by a company spokeswoman during his time there, Songz’  ‘Google’ arrival saw him receive a detailed explanation on how the ‘wearable computer’ works, as he continues work on his hotly anticipated sixth studio album.

Whoa!

In an age where so many R&B belles fail to shoot and release album artwork striking enough to attract passing trade, Ashanti gets it righter than right this time around…doing so for her new LP ‘Braveheart.’

For, perhaps in realising that it takes far more than an album’s material to turn a doubting shopper into a willing customer, the ‘Happy’ vocalist takes the breath right out of our lungs with a brand new cover shot in support of the aforementioned project, still set for an independent release later on this year.

If so, why?

1) Toni Braxton & Babyface – Sweat

2) Christina Aguilera – WooHoo (ft. Nicki Minaj)

3) Usher – Euphoria

4) Trina – Don’t Trip (ft. Lil Wayne)

5) Beyonce – Drunk In Love

After a lengthy break on the bench, ‘TGJ Replay’ is back!

Designed much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ segments, ‘Replay’ is That Grape Juice‘s newest retrospective quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday.

Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase entire albums (and eras) from a library of pop and Urban pop music hits.  With the ten year mark swiftly approaching since its release, today’s ‘Replay’ goes back to ‘Afrodisiac’ – R&B beauty Brandy‘s 4th studio album:
