After taking a minute to recoup after the mis-shot that was their TLC cover ‘Waterfalls’, British R&B outfit Stooshe are back with new single ‘Slip’.

The Supremes flavoured cut is the fourth to be lifted from the trio’s self-titled debut which, following a brief re-working, is now slated for a May 27th release.

Having already racked up two top tens out of three releases (see: ‘Love Me’ and ‘Black Heart’), can Alexandra, Karis, and Courtney do it again? You decide after the jump…

Since her arrival last year, we were hoping Rita Ora‘s immaculate vocal stylings would rub off on her older yet far less skilled ROC sister, Rihanna.

Unfortunately, between not writing her own songs and patrolling the mean streets of Instagram, the ‘Fading’ singer seemingly hasn’t found the time to learn from Rita live outings.

Anyway, in joining Elijah Blake to prove the label does have an ear for authentic talent, March 19th  saw Rita rock ‘Premium Live’ in Japan with a performance of her song ‘Been Lying’, putting the ‘We Found Love‘ bleater to total shame.

And…the gloves are off.

Just moments ago comedian Mike Epps set Twitter alight with jabs at fellow comedian Kevin Hart for a recent episode of his hit BET series ‘Real Husbands of Hollywood’.  The particular episode had a number of gay-themed incidents in it (including a scene where basketballer Shaquille O’Neal performed “rape motions on Hart”(see photo below):

To which Epps had this to say:

To which Kevin Hart replied:

Mike Epps continued, stating:

Fans may remember this isn’t the first time Mike Epps avoided using spellcheck and Hart had a spat on the social network.  Back in January the dueling standups battled it out on Twitter after Epps took offense to a comment wielded by Hart.

Epps said, “@KevinHart4Real looks like a bald headed chipmunk that slid down a dusty chimney!”

Can’t we all just get along?

With just two days remaining before the first-week numbers for Justin Timberlake‘s new album ‘The 20/20 Experience’ are tallied up in total, retailers have once again revised the sales predictions.

Much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ segments, readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.  So in a quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday we introduced a new retrospective segment – ‘TGJ Replay’.

Unlike its ‘Rewind’ and ‘Vault’ predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase albums (and eras) from a library of pop music hits.  Today, we rewind to the genesis of Cece Winans solo career – 1995’s award-winning ‘Alone In His Presence’:
