Ever keen to spotlight fresh new talent, That Grape Juice introduces you to Gail Scott.

Signed in a joint venture between Universal Motown and Jeep Boys Ent, the 19 year old Bronx native is making quite the buzz behind the scenes. Indeed, one look and listen makes the reasoning for such attention immediately apparent. For, not only is the singer-songwriter stunning, she – most importantly – is immensely talented. A fact folk get a taste of on her sassy new teaser single ‘Jack N Jill’.

The hotter than hot cut was produced by Soundz (Rihanna, Ciara, Kelly Rowland) and is but a sample of what to expect from her debut album. Tentatively titled ‘Tuff’ (Scott’s nickname), the set is expected to arrive in stores later this year and boasts production from the likes of Tricky Stewart, Infinity, Soundz, Drumma Boy, among others. Put simply Ms. Scott is poised to make a splash. A big one at that.

Take a listen to ‘Jack N Jill’ below and let us know what you think…

It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything from Solange; however, the youngest of the Knowles clan has been busying herself with many a project. Indeed, as well as recording her third studio album, the 24 year old joined forces with Twin Shadow and Chris Taylor (of the Grizzly Bears) to record charitable track ‘Kenya’.

The release is designed to generate awareness of the world’s water crisis, benefitting charitable efforts of Coca-Cola Africa Foundation’s RAIN (Replenishing Africa Initiative). Proceeds from the track will be used to establish clean water standards for a number of African countries such as Uganda, Cameroon, and Rwanda.

Speaking of the record, Solange said: “To me it inspires hope when it’s more upbeat and spirited, and I think that that is what the conversation should be about.”
