‘That don’t make me no slut’.

K. Michelle turns up the R rated heat with her brand new single/video ‘I Just Wanna‘- released to coincide with the launch of ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’s return last night.

With fresh year comes fresh goals; and for Mary Mary star Erica Campbell “solo success” is one of hers.

Still going strong with sister Tina as part of the Grammy winning duo, Erica is stepping out alone for a solo side-project — the first single of which receives its exclusive online premiere on That Grape Juice.

Titled ‘A Little More Jesus’, the funky cut sees Campbell once again remind that Gospel needn’t be tedious nor tiresome. Instead, the track is full of flavour and fuses the best aspects of the genre with a contemporary kick.

Fans fearing a break-up should fret not. Reliable sources (as well as Campbell herself) confirm that Mary Mary are still very much a unit and are presently shooting season 3 of their hit WE tv reality show.

For now, though, take a listen to ‘A Little More Jesus’ below…

Lady GaGa sent Hollywood into a frenzy hours ago, snapped leaving the Chateau Marmont in a convertible driven by what appears to be a close friend.

Enjoying time away from the stage as she recovers an operation to repair a labral tear in her hip, the ‘Starstruck’ philanthropist was spotted as she continues crafting her long awaited new album, ‘ARTPOP’, alongside Grammy award winning producer DJ White Shadow.

Shadow, being the producer behind her groundbreaking single ‘Born This Way’ which has now been certified 2x Platinum in Japan, 3x Platinum and 4x Platinum in Australia, since dropping on February 1st 2011. More below! (more…)

Ciara is in all-out promo mode for new single ‘Body Party’.

With R&B serving as her musical mainstay on her new self-titled album (due July 9th), it was inevitable that a trip to BET’s 106 & Park was in the pipeline.

Naturally, many have been anticipating the stage blazer’s return to the show given ex-boyfriend Bow Wow‘s new gig as a host there. Last night brought with it “the “moment” when Cici stopped by the countdown show to formally introduce the video for ‘Body Party’.

‘When I See You’ songstress Fantasia has seen herself aboard a media rollercoaster since the turn of the decade.

Indeed, kicking it off with her Grammy-award winning, 2010 top-seller ‘Back To Me’, the singer shortly thereafter found herself back atop headlines for a spectrum of a reasons – many of which, she tells That Grape Juice, nearly led her to walk away from the very platform that brought her fame.

Now, as her fourth album ‘Side Effects of You’ hit shelves today, Tasia talks exclusively about why it is her most personal to date (addressing those issues “head-on”), the future of her once-scheduled Mahalia Jackson biopic,  and so much more.

It all awaits below…

With major stops still to go in London, well as both North and South America, the diva has released a teaser reel for the the global trek (which is almost entirely sold-out).

Last month saw teen sensation Ariana Grande shock and awe with surprise hit ‘The Way (ft. Mac Miller)’.

Beyond rocking to the top of the iTunes chart, the catchy Pop-Urban cut notably saw many a Mariah Carey comparison made, thanks to its composition and vocal delivery. Indeed, for a number of folk, the former Nickelodeon star bears shades of an early Ms. Carey-Cannon.

And while the Mimi debate rages on, Z100 ploughed through the speculation and simply put Grande to the test.

At the tail end of their recent interview with the 19-year-old, they requested an acapella of ‘The Way’, which she agreed to. How did she fare? The answer awaits after the jump…
