The 60th Annual Grammy Awards certainly provided many a notable moment courtesy of the host of music stars who took to the stage.
Now, after show-stopping performances from Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar and more, see who walked away with the show’s biggest star – its coveted trophies!
A full winners’ list awaits below…
Britney Spears is still big business 20 years into her career.
The Pop icon announced an limited run of US and international dates for her ‘Piece Of Me’ residency and has now had to add more shows to her calendar due to overwhelming demand.
Full story below…
Over the years, That Grape Juice has established a distinguished voice that – whether loved or loathed – sparks discussion, debate, and on occasion drama!
Though comprised of seasoned writers who share a similar outlook on Urban Pop culture, the idiosyncrasies of the TGJ team members often lend for quite heated debates “behind the scenes” about the hottest topics.
Now, we give you a front row seat to the show. In a format similar to ‘The View’ or ‘The Real’, TGJ editors – Sam, David, Rashad, and Joe – get real in a very candid way.
Today’s roundtable topic asks each anchor…
What Is On Your 2018 Wish List?!
The journey to Tinashe‘s sophomore album has been anything but a ‘Joyride.’
Indeed, its title has proven quite ironic given the amount of speed-bumps and stop-signs its encountered since starting its commute in 2015.
Release dates have come and gone, as has a succession of “lead” singles. And yet…nothing.
That may be set to change imminently, though.
Find out why below…
The creative duo Bradley and Pablo are to thank for delivering one of the best Nicki Minaj looks her fans have received in some time.
Charismatic, innovative and show-stopping, the rapper’s delivery (vocally and visually) in Migos‘ hit ‘MotorSport’ has inspired her fans to recreate what they saw and share their versions of her verse with their fellow fans.
Nicki ate that verse on Motor Sport, idc. She may have slacked off due to lack of comp, but sis def not giving up her spot that easily..& always will be legendary. I don’t like her or Cardi over each other; I like em both, Cardi still new so I am excited to see her capabilities.

Scribbled in history books for some good and not-so-good reasons, 2017 brought with it some of modern music’s most memorable moments. Now, as the year draws to a close, TGJ is reflecting on our favorite moments that rocked – and to some degree reshaped – the Urban and Pop musical landscape as we know it.
Next, we look back at the unfortunate terrorist attack on Manchester, England that brought the whole world together in unity thanks to no small effort from pop diva Ariana Grande:

Fact: Nicki Minaj is coasting.
A pill that many of her die-hard fans are unwilling to swallow, Minaj’s habit of neglecting international markets in recent years has seen her brand jog in the same enviable spot.
Fortunately, that’s done little to stop her from continuing to outperform her predecessors Missy Elliott and Lil Kim globally with pure sales.
Why Minaj will be forced to spend more time outside of the U.S. if she doesn’t want her next album to fail?
Good news below…
Fifth Harmony are pressing ahead spreading festive cheer.
The Pop quad’s latest stop was Showtime At The Apollo on FOX, where they soared with a rousing rendition of ‘Can You See’ from animated holiday movie ‘The Star.’
Watch Ally, Lauren, Dinah, and Normani live up to their group name after the jump…
After earning a surprise Hot 100 hit with unlikely collaborator Macklemore, pop songstress Kesha has apparently grown very fond of the ‘Thrift Shop’ hitmaker – a feat evidenced by today’s announcement the duo are set to hit the road together in support of their latest respective projects, ‘Rainbow’ and ‘Gemini.’
Titled ‘The Adventures of Kesha & Macklemore’ tour, the summer 2018 outing – which kicks off in Phoenix on June 6 – is set to touch every corner of United States with stops in Las Vegas, Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta, Miami, and many more before closing in Tampa on August 5.
Tuck in below to see if their adventures will be making their way to a location near you:
The nominations for the 2018 Golden Globe Awards have been announced – and it’s good news for the likes of Mary J. Blige, Viola Davis, Denzel Washington, Issa Rae, Daniel Kaluuya and Mariah Carey.
As some of Hollywood’s leading names, they have racked up noms for their efforts in titles including ‘Mudbound,’ ‘Insecure,’ ‘Get Out,’ and ‘Roman J. Israel, Esq.’
Find out below who’s up for what at the 75th annual spectacle, which airs live on January 7th 2018 on NBC.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned… or Justin Timberlake, it seems.
Today’s From The Vault pick is JT’s infamous Grammy winning expose, ‘Cry Me A River.’
Masterminded by Timberlake, Timbaland and Scott Storch, ‘River’ was released as the second single from the crooner’s solo debut ‘Justified’ in 2002.
The lyrics, depicting a guy confronting his cheating girlfriend, were the cause of ample controversy at the time; notably as they allegedly relayed the end of Justin and Britney Spears’ high profile relationship.
A global smash, the track fared better than its predecessor ‘Like I Love You’, not only in the US where it peaked at #3 but also worldwide with a #2 placement both in the UK and Australia. It also won him a Grammy for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.
***********
If there any doubt as to who JT was aiming for beforehand it was dispelled by the time its accompanying visual was released.
Directed by Francis Lawrence, the video presented Justin in all his stalking glory, trying to get revenge on his lookalike ex by destroying her Malibu house. All while Timbaland waits for him in the rain.
The clip’s was showered with praise and was the most resonating step towards shedding JT’s clean-cut image.
Now on the eve a brand new era – that includes a headlining performance on the Super Bowl stage – we’re glad some of the following are on the cusp of being answered:
Will he go full on Pop with material akin to ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’? Or will he re-tread the Urban route? And how will he handle the inevitable Janet Jackson questions in an era is ready and willing to call out “cultural appropriation” and other injustices? The list goes on…
Anyhow, what is for sure is that we’re in for a series of very interesting Pop moments courtesy of JT. Something we’re not mad at considering the lack of “event” releases in 2017.
It’s a bit early, but welcome back Justin!
