Readers of That Grape Juice know how passionate we are about music – whether that be past or present.

However, unlike our other segments – Retro Rewind, TGJ Replay, and From The Vault – The Pop Stop is the most in-depth look at Pop songs that may have flown under the radar over the last week that you should know, rather they be from music’s biggest stars or those on the rise.

This week, we want to highlight cuts from NCT U, The 1975, Lily Williams, and Robert Finley .

Kylie Minogue turns up the heat with her new single ‘Tension.’

Unleashed this week, the release serves as the title track of the Pop diva’s 16th studio album (due September 22 via BMG).

Directed by longtime collaborator Sophie Muller, the whimsical clip sees multiple Minogue’s in action – as they call collectively release tension.

The track arrives on the heels of global hit ‘Padam Padam’ and as the superstar preps her first-ever Las Vegas residency and hosts an ITV special, ‘An Audience With Kylie.’

Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, and Nelly Furtado have reunited for new single ‘Keep Going Up.’

Sixteen years after topping the Billboard Hot 100 with ‘Give It To Me,’ the trio serves up fresh flames on what is Timbo’s first leading release in eight years.

Arriving the freshly minted pact between the hitmakers Mosley Music Group and Def Jam Recordings, the high-octane cut is lifted from the producer’s incoming EP.

Anchored in the signature sound that Timbaland varnished solo hits for JT and Furtado with, the initial beat originated from his Beatclub platform.

A community for music makers, ‘Keep Going Up’ was shaped by Brandon Stewart and Brandon Cordoba before being built on by the revered producer.

The mid-tempo sees Onika ruminate on love, loss, and moments confined to time.

However, despite being the pioneering “visual album” format for her era, the superstar has been surprised by pressing forward with the project – and its history-making tour – sans a visual component.

The mystery has been the subject of much discourse among fans.

Now, a new report appears to shed light on what has been happening behind the scenes.
