An all star line-up including the likes of Miley Cyrus, Bruno Mars, Miguel, and Ke$ha lit up yesterday’s iHeartRadio Music Festival stage, but arguably none like the show’s headliner Justin Timberlake.
Entering to his 2006 #1 smash ‘Sexy Back’, the ‘Take Back the Night’ crooner arguably did just that by dazzling the Las Vegas audience with a slew of hits and some new numbers set to be listed aboard his new album ’20/20 Experience Pt. 2′ (due September 30).
Before the ‘Rock Your Body’ beau rocked the house, fellow hitmaker Drake dazzled with hits like ‘Started From the Bottom’ and ‘Hold On, We’re Going Home’ – both from his forthcoming tertiary release ‘Nothing Was the Same’ (Sept. 23).
Get into Bruno Mars, Miguel, Drake, and Justin Timberlake‘s sets below:
Feast your eyes on ‘If We Had Your Eyes’ singer Michelle Williams’!
As the gospel hitmaker readies fans for the musical journey that is ‘Journey To Freedom’ – her fourth solo LP – she took to Facebook moments ago to unveil the single artwork for its follow-up titled ‘Fire’.
Given the heat that was ‘Eyes’, it’s undoubted fans expect no less of its follow-up to live up to its moniker. But, with Harmony Samuels at the helm of the album’s entire production, we can’t see why it won’t.
Set to make its debut in full tomorrow, click below to get a full glimpse at the single artwork before you hear it in its entirety.
This Friday, Pop’s favourite newbie Lorde will release her hotly anticipated debut album ‘Pure Heroine’, via Universal Music.
Still not sure how you feel about her?
Well, cop a gander at her moving performance of her #1 single ‘Royals‘ on the UK’s ‘Later…With Jools Holland’ and let us know what you think about it after the jump!
When Rihanna gets it right, she really gets it right.
Not sure what we mean? Well, peep this performance of her oft forgotten number ‘Take A Bow‘ in Manila, served as part of her ‘Diamonds World Tour’.
Enthused and clearly ‘feeling’ the song, performances like these have us wondering why can’t deliver at all times and low key has looking forward to whatever new music she has in store for her fans this year!
Ever eager to showcase fresh and exciting new talent, TGJ is always happy to share the acts we spin on our iPods with you- our ever loyal readers.
So, you can imagine our joy when an act we’d heard a whole lot of good about sent us a video message requesting to be introduced to and by That Grape Juice. An act, who goes by the name of Von Tae‘!
Brit Pop belles The Saturdays have stretched out the campaign out for their latest album ‘Living For The Weekend‘ to almost one year – and the LP is still not out yet.
Still, with a date finally in-sight (October 14th), the ladies are pressing on with promo for the single that’ll usher in the project’s release – ‘Disco Love’.
Sans member Frankie Sandford (who is currently on maternity leave), the group took to the stage on ITV’s Stepping Out this weekend to perform the Pop anthem.
The music world has seen numerous solo artists routinely join forces resulting in legendary combos: Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell, Donny Hathaway & Roberta Flack as well as the duo we’re saluting today: Babyface & Toni Braxton.
Their 1992 hit ‘Give U My Heart‘ is this week’s From The Vault pick.
Helmed by then-usual suspects L.A. Reid, Babyface and Daryl Simmons, the track served as the launching single of the Eddie Murphy-led blockbuster ‘Boomerang‘ OST. The song sees the two vocalist trade verses showcasing a similar vocal technique that borrows much from Jazz music.
‘Heart’ reached the Top 30 of the Billboard Hot 100 (#29) and impressively peaked at #2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop, with the track blocking its journey to the top of that tally being chart blockbuster Boyz II Men‘s ‘End Of Road‘… the second single from the ‘Boomerang’ OST… which was also written by Babyface. (Ca-Ching!)
If the song displays incredible chemistry between Toni and Kenny, its music video surely takes it up a notch. Indeed, it presents the artists coyly interacting, surrounded by spinning geometric solids upon which footage from the movie is projected. To sum up, they look as lush as they sound.
Over 20 years after they first started working together, and after much success – as a team and individually – on December 3rd Edmonds and Braxton are finally set to give the world what it has been longing for for years: a collaborative album, ‘Love, Marriage And Divorce‘.
With first single ‘Hurt You‘ already smashing Urban AC, let’s hope the duo can bring back that rich, heartfelt soul at the forefront of the industry the same way they did a couple of decades removed. One must understand that songs like ‘Un-Break My Heart‘, ‘I’ll Make Love To You‘ and ‘When Can I See You‘ left a permanent imprint on the industry, paving the way for artists such as Ne-Yo, Elijah Blake, Adele and Emeli Sandé.
Behold the mess that is Miley Cyrus, arriving at the ‘iHeart Radio Music Festival’ to promote her forthcoming album ‘Bangerz‘.
Continuing on in her efforts to pay homage to Cynthia Doll, the Pop court jester took to the stage to rock fans with ‘We Can’t Stop’ and the fan favourite ‘Wrecking Ball’, now available to enjoy-or tease- below!
Pictured alongside British chart royal Rita Ora above, Chris Brown stormed the ‘iHeart Radio Music Festival’ hours ago, hitting the stage with a killer performance and a live band/arrangements we hope to hear more of on his new album ‘X‘.
Britney Spears had the pleasure of introducing Miley Cyrus yesterday, taking to the iHeart Radio Music Festival to promote her new single ‘Work B*tch’ and introduce Cyrus to the stage to perform her smash hit ‘We Can’t Stop‘.
Watch the ill advised entertainer in all her ‘glory’ below…
Currently perched at #1 on iTunes USA, 16 year old Pop newbie Lorde is fast becoming one her genre’s more celebrated (and respected) contributors, scoring big on all fronts with her brand new single ‘Royals’.
Now, days before the September 27th release of her debut album ‘Pure Heroine’, the performer has shared her thoughts on ‘Teenage Wasteland’ belle Lana Del Rey, billing her music ‘unhealthy’.
