CARLY RAE JEPSEN GETS IN THE MIX WITH HK

It has been three years since Carly Rae Jepsen ruled the airwaves with her pop phenomenon single Call Me Maybe. Just thinking about that song insures that I will undoubtable be singing it in my head for the rest of the day. That track was Carly’s first foray into the music scene and what an amazing first release it was. Call Me Maybe sold over 18 million copies, went top ten in 29 countries and hit #1 in 19 countries! Now after much preparation and collaboration Carly has just released her much anticipated sophomore album Emotion to rave reviews. This week she will be joining me to talk about her new single and the different approach taken on this album vs. her first!

In addition to Carly’s new single Run Away With Me getting the HK touch, I’ll be hitting you up with EXCLUSIVE HK remixes on all your faves. Tune in to hear The Weeknd, OMI, Demi Lovato, R.City and Zedd like you've never heard them before. Plus brand new bangers from Hailee Steinfeld, Audien w/Lady Antebellum, Matthew Koma, Kygo, Icona Pop and more! 


Remember…If it's hot, if it's new and it makes you wanna move…you're In The Mix with HK™.

MARIAH CAREY CONTINUES TO MAKE IT HAPPEN


Over an astounding 25 year career Mimi has had her share of ups and downs. There’s been talk of diva behavior (no surprise there), vocal acrobatics gone wrong and being off key. But love her or hate her there’s no denying Mariah Carey is an icon with staying power. Her residency at Cesar’s Palace runs through February, this month she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and just this week she performed to an adoring crowd of thousands in Israel.

Here are 5 things I’m likin’ about Mimi:
1.    She can sing her A** off with that five octave range and has the ability to reach notes beyond the 7th octave.

2.    This lady knows how to make a hit record. Charting 18 #1’s (that’s right count them) and still putting music out there.

3.    She’s no quitter- After a devastating fail with her film Glitter she came back to deliver a “put yourself out there” award winning performance in Precious. I mean a Diva without makeup is like me without music. 

4.    During a recent press event she discussed her disdain for those reality stars who reach celebrity status without having a craft or an art that they’re famous for. You gotta love her for that.

5.    She’s hitting the small screen in Season 2 of Empire. As if there weren’t enough reasons to be glued to Empire already.
 

And you should be glued to your radio this weekend cause I'm dropping smokin’ hot HK EXCLUSIVE remixes on all your faves. Buckle up and keep your hands in the car, I’ll be taking over your ear canal with Fifth Harmony, Adam Lambert, OMI, Flo Rida, Demi Lovato, Tori Kelly, Little Mix and more! Plus new jams from Carly Rae Jepsen, Kygo, A Great Big World, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and Jess Glynne.
 

Remember…If it's hot, if it's new and it makes you wanna move…you're In The Mix with HK™.

I CAN'T FEEL MY FACE THIS WEEKND!

Is it just me or does every day now feel like The Weeknd? Let me explain, Abel Tesfaye the singer, songwriter and producer better known as The Weeknd is a young Canadian of Ethiopian decent. He entered the scene with his modern soul music in 2011 with a trilogy of free (gotta love that) mix tapes. Back in 2013 Tesfaye released his debut album and was a contributor on the Hunger Games: Catching Fire Soundtrack. Then in 2014 he helped write, produce and sang with Ariana Grande on her smash Love Me Harder. But Abel really blew up as an artist back in December with his hit from 50 Shades of Grey- Earned It (have you seen that video???). He’s also been busy  working on his sophomore album Beauty Behind The Madness set to drop on August 28th. Fast forward to today when The Weeknd landed his first #1 with a song I just can’t get out of my head, Can’t Feel My Face. Side Note: We broke that record right here In The Mix with HK™!

Your face will be numb this weekend with my custom and EXCLUSIVE HK remix on Can’t feel My Face and bangers from David Guetta, Jason Derulo, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, A Great Big World, OMI, Little Mix, Demi Lovato and so much more! 

Remember…If it's hot, if it's new and it makes you wanna move…you're In The Mix with HK™.
