He’s the mastermind behind some of Gospel and R&B’s recent chart winners. That’s right, we’re talking about the vocal wonder that is TC– the man behind Brandy‘s fan favorite ‘Wish Your Love Away’ and Justin Bieber‘s ‘She Don’t Like The Lights’.

Now, in lending that voice to the stellar cut, he’s released a cover of Fantasia‘s forthcoming single ‘Without Me’, so close to the original even we had trouble differentiating between this and the original.

For anyone old enough remember to release of Beyonce‘s debut album ‘Dangerously In Love’, its 10th anniversary will no doubt bring back many a fond memory.

Following the critical success of Kelly Rowland‘s Alternative R&B piece ‘Simply Deep’ and Michelle Williams’ speedy ascent to the top of Gospel, ‘Love’ came two years after its title track featured on Destiny’s Child 2001 LP ‘Survivor’, a classic in its own right.

Now, in celebrating the album’s tenth birthday and the moments it created for so many across the world, we ask…

While fans have been enjoying ‘Boomerang’ – the latest single from guitar wielding soul singer Lyfe Jennings, the ‘Hypothetically’ hitmaker has lifted the lid on a forthcoming reality show.

Titled ‘Our Life’, the show is set to document the daily happenings of Lyfe’s life post-3 year jail stint.  Much like rapper Shawty Lo, it is said the show’s focus will be more on Jennings’ children and “baby mamas”, but unlike Lo, the ‘Must Be Nice’ maestro promises to keep the show nice and ‘ratchet-free’.

Until we see if he keeps his promise, keep it locked to That Grape Juice for more on this story as it develops.  No premiere date or network set as of time reporting.

Believe it or not, today marks the 10th anniversary of Beyonce‘s debut album ‘Dangerously In Love’- an album that redefined Pop culture for good.

The launching pad for a career that served to birth so many after hers, the R&B project saw the entertainer rise from the comfort of Destiny’s Child, and ultimately overshadow the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Ashanti, dwarfing their run at the top with a campaign that saw Mathew Knowles exercise every tool and rule in the book to ensure its success.

Now, 11 million albums later, we celebrate the project’s greatest moment….the star’s performance of its title track at 46th Annual Grammy Awards.
