With its #76 premiere on the Billboard 200 this week, ‘What You Expect’ – the first joint EP from Big Sean and Hit-Boy – comes as the highest placement the latter has had on the album chart to date.

In a bid to boost the project to even higher heights on the tally, the duo have given even more of its housed cuts – namely ‘The One’ and ‘Chaos’ – the single treatment.

The roll out of the former – which prominently samples SWV‘s 1996 classic, ‘You’re the One’ – was accompanied by a black-and-white clip filmed at a Hollywood Hills home studio while the latter lives up to its title via a chaotic music video laden with car wrecks, disorder, and more.

Ample excitement surrounds the release of Disney‘s new animated adventure, ‘Encanto.’ And with good reason.

The eagerly anticipated film tells the tale of a young Colombian girl named Mirabel (played by Stephanie Beatriz).

Unlike her loved ones, she is the only member of her family who doesn’t possess magical powers – a fact that frustrates her in earnest.

However, in a unique turn of events, Mirabel may be the only one able to help when their magic comes under threat.

Beyond performances from the cast, music is at the heart of ‘Encanto’ thanks to world-renowned star Lin-Manuel Miranda – who crafted the film’s resonating soundtrack.

Ahead of the movie’s theatrical release on November 24, That Grape Juice‘s Chet Kincaid sat down with Miranda, lead Beatriz, and Diane Guerrero – who all dished on the importance of ‘Encanto’ and the magic of its music.

Check out the EXCLUSIVE interview above.
