After ample anticipation, ‘BEL-AIR’ is here.

Conceived by Morgan Cooper and executive produced by Oscar nominee Will Smith, the Peacock series serves as a modern reimagining of the iconic sitcom ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.’

Anchored in the contemporary climate, the revival adds new layers to the much-loved story and to celebrate its arrival, this week That Grape Juice hosted an exclusive screening of ‘BEL-AIR’.

The Central London event saw our guests become some of the first in the country to see the series – which has already been earning rave reviews.

Guests also took home goodie bags featuring Will Smith‘s memoir (courtesy of Penguin Books) as well as must-haves from Palmers UK, Cantu, Waken, Jitterbug, Urban Veda, H!p Chocolate, Bea’s Beauty, Bells & Whistles, Olly’s Pretzels, Afrocenchix, Bourn Beautiful Naturals, Olu Olu,  and Boom Sauce (because we all need a lil’ hot sauce in our bag!)

Mary J. Blige stunned music lovers in December when she released a duo of comeback singles to kick off the era attached to her long-awaited 15th studio album.

Titled ‘Good Morning Gorgeous’ and ‘Amazing,’ the former tune would go on to top Billboard R&B charts while the DJ Khaled-assisted latter – though well-received on the critical front – failed to impel the impact of its parent album’s title track.
