It's a
new year and we have a lot to look forward to in the music world. Dua Lipa,
the London dark pop singer/songwriter is dropping her self-titled debut album
in February. Also early this year Drake will deliver More Life . This
next album promised to be the exclamation mark to the end of Drake’s wickedly
successful 2016. Can't believe he's already throwing new music at us! Spring is
expected to end the four year long wait for Lorde’s much anticipated
sophomore outing. Also this spring, Charli XCX plans to drop her next LP
saying “Most of the songs on the album are about partying or about falling in
love with someone after partying”. Sounds like a solid album plan to me! Kelly
Clarkson is setting a summer release that is a return to classic soul.
Saying it is “the record that has been in me since junior high”. Seems
like it’s been since junior high since Christina Aguilera’s last
full-length. Rumor has it this is the year she will present a new LP. And can
we seriously go a third year without a new Taylor Swift album?! I have
my money and my hopes on Taylor LP6 arriving before Christmas. After a very
explosive split from Fifth Harmony and a huge hit with Machine Gun
Kelly, Camila Cabello is on track (be it just whispers) to drop her
first solo endeavor. Another past group member that shook things up upon
departure, Niall Horan says his upcoming work will have a “folk-with-pop
feel to it”. Justin Timberlake reportedly has at least six great tracks
in the can but will we see his album this year? Justin says… "I guess I’m
resigned to the fact that I’m a tortoise when it comes to this process.” So I’m
sticking with cautious optimism. Back in 2015 Katy Perry’s manager said
the pop star’s fourth album would be out by 2016. Since then studio update
tweets have hinted at a not so far off release that I am counting on!
This week
you can count a weekend party that will shake the walls! I’ll be droppin’ the
needle on your fave chart toppers in custom HK remix style. Plus get ready for
new bangers from The Chainsmokes feat. Phoebe Ryan, Dua
Lipa, Fitz & The Tantrums, Flume and Lady Gaga.
It’s all going down right here this weekend.

wanna move…you're In The Mix with HK™.
