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. Finally, we go back to Next Selection/Bad Boy beauty Cassie‘s eponymous debut…
As he gears up for the September 17th release of his new album ‘Nothing Was The Same‘, Drake‘s found himself on the receiving end of a ‘gift’ this weekend…sent to him by ‘A Girl Like Me’ singer Rihanna.
Indeed, while her time would have been better spent cleaning up ‘dem vocals’, the performer shared an Instagram video of herself shaking her ‘donk’ to the performer’s ‘Problems‘- a song led by A$AP Rocky.
Watch Ciara‘s biggest fan in action after the jump!
As if the heavy dose of girl power announced earlier wasn’t enough to send viewers into a frenzy for this year’s BET Awards, it appears the folks at BET just keep adding more ingredients to the pot.
Indeed, Grammy winning songbird India.Arie – whose new album ‘Songversation’ hits shelves June 25th – just saw her name added to the bill’s line-up of performers. The news was shared not long after Arie shared the album’s tracklist with fans.

Want to know how?
Our Saturday morning chart check below!
It’s that time of the week again!
Half an hour after this week’s UK Charts were publicised, TGJ rounds up a number of the week’s highest rising releases in the nation- which now sees Daft Punk & Pharrell Williams top the overall tally with their Dance hit ‘Get Lucky’.
Meet us below!
With Urban radio helping the cut generate further steam this year, Elijah Blake‘s ‘XOX’ has found a new home in mass media company Viacom this week.
For, in continuing on in their efforts to shine light and support new talent, the company have inked a deal with The Island Def Jam Group, ROC Nation and Stephen Hill‘s BET to premiere and place the single’s video on heavy rotation on the latter company…this week.

US music lovers have spoken…and the names on their lips are Rihanna and Ariana Grande!
That’s right, thanks to their ever loyal respective fan bases and the support of many a casual listener, the Pop Princesses have made significant chart gains in the last week.
Good news below!
‘Goin’ In’ singer Jennifer Lopez is goin’ to a new label if newly surfaced reports are to be believed.
Shortly after sending fans into a frenzy with the announcement of her new RedOne produced, Pitbull-assisted single ‘Live It Up’, now the rumor mill is spinning stories indicating Lopez’s already extensive resume with the producer just got one more notch…
With Hurricane Beyonce fast approaching, it seems her one time heir apparent Rihanna has smartened up and decide to work on that voice.
We kid you not.
Last night, for the first time since performing ‘Stay‘ on X Factor UK last winter, the Pop Princess served a decent vocal showing at the Montreal outing of her ‘Diamonds World Tour’, despite arriving 70 minutes after initially scheduled.
Sure, while her voice is still enough to strike fear in the drum of many an unsuspecting ear, her delivery yesterday evening was kind of decent- clearly inspired by the acclaim afforded to real vocalists like Rita Ora, Ciara and of course…Queen Beyonce.
Not sure what we mean?
