Ben Affleck assembles a who’s who of Hollywood for his latest directorial effort ‘AIR.’

Eagerly awaited, the film spotlights the genesis of the Air Jordan brand.

Indeed, the movie relays how a then-rising Michael Jordan and Nike’s basketball division changed the face of sports and culture with the launch of the iconic sportswear brand.

Affleck stars alongside Matt Damon, Viola Davis, Jason Bateman, Chris Messina, Matthew Maher, Marlon Wayans, Jay Mohr, Julius Tennon, and Chris Tucker in the must-see offering.

Ahead of its arrival in theaters on April 5, That Grape Juice‘s Samuel Eni sat down with both Affleck and Tucker – who opened up about the process of piecing together the slam dunk movie.

Drake appears to have been spending time in the studio, because he has a new song and it samples one of the world’s most famous faces.

On March 31, Drake was a guest on ‘The Fri Yiy Show,’ where he premiered his new song ‘Rescue Me.’

On the song, he raps:

“I need someone to be patient with me / Someone to get money with, not take it from me / They don’t even need to be as famous as me.“

However, halfway through the song, a clip of Kim Kardashian can be heard, where she talks about her divorce.

“I didn’t come this far just to come this far and not be happy. Remember that,” she says.

There is currently not a release date for the project as of reporting.

Xscape and SWV have had newsfeeds in a tizzy with their reality series ‘SWV & Xscape: The Queens of R&B.’

The hit series chronicles the iconic groups as they prepare for an epic joint show comprised of their biggest hits.

Beyond celebrating the music that has been the soundtrack to so many lives, the core of the chaos thus far has been Xscape’s internal issues and bubbling beef with SWV over whether their concert will be jointly billed or headlined by the ‘My Little Secret’ songbirds.

On the finale (episode 6), which airs this coming Sunday, viewers will see whether the ensembles are able to make the concert come together – all the while navigating how undone the relationship between sisters Tamika Scott and LaTocha Scott has become.

Amaka is ready for her close-up.

The eclectic singer once served as one-half of  sister duo VanJess.

Rebranding as Amaka (a nod to her Nigerian heritage), the vocalist has teamed with 2x GRAMMY winner Kaytranada for her debut single ‘Crusin.’

A delicious slice of soulful dance, the track makes clear that Amaka is staking her own claim sonically.

After rousing the capacity crowd at Raleigh’s Dorothea Dix Park with a seemingly endless array of classics, the stage blazer paused the show for a “special” moment.

Much to the excitement of the audience at the April 1 show, the performer recapped his promise to bring out a guest at the festival.

It’s been seven years since Tori Kelly last saw her name printed by its lonesome on the Billboard Hot 100 – a standing the vocal powerhouse is certainly looking to change with her March 17-released single ‘Missin U.’

And though ‘Missin U’ missed the Hot 100 during its first week of eligible charting, the R&B cut’s success narrative – if the thunderous critical acclaim that greeted it is anything to judge by – is just getting started.

To progress the story, Kelly has revamped its official music video to give the fairytale an alternate happy ending.

Titled ‘Missin U (More),’ the updated edition of the song’s accompanying clip – which interpolates elements of the original – sees its performer pay tribute even further to the late 90’s/early 2000’s in sound and aesthetic.

Look inside to see how.
