EDM TAKES OVER THE POP CHARTS…AGAIN!!!

Long long ago in a galaxy far far away artists like Acraze, The Chainsmokers, Tiesto, Alesso and Diplo were known only to fans of EDM. Their songs were confined to the Dance charts and those tripping the light fantastic. That all changed years ago when upbeat dance music took over the airwaves and souls of everyone with a heartbeat. Once again, there is overwhelming proof that a great pop vocal and melody over a pulsating dance track is a winner for artists and fans alike. All of the aforementioned artists are in this week’s In The Mix with HK™ along with new music from Jena Rose, Em Beihold, SZA, The Walters and MORE! Plus EXCLUSIVE HK remixes on Post Malone & The Weeknd, Doja Cat, Imagine Dragons and more of your current faves!

Kesha’s dropped the lead single Raising Hell from her upcoming album High Road due out January 10^th.

LIZZO'S WORLD DOMINATION

Lizzo’s Truth Hurts is the #1 song in the country for six straight weeks in a row and as of this week Good As Hell  has become her second Top 40 hit! It’s been a whirlwind year for this hard working classically trained flutist turned world-conquering music star, powerhouse rapper/vocalist and inspirational personality. Lizzo’s currently out wowing her diverse and passionate fans on her sold out Cuz I Love You Too tour. She also recently was ruled eligible to compete for the Best New Artist Grammy. And if that’s wasn’t enough to make Lizzo feel as Good As Hell-Truth Hurts has doubled the record for the longest run at #1 on the Hot 100 for a rap by a female artist unaccompanied by another act. Of that track she says; It’s “a song I put out two years ago, and it was a song I really believed in and wrote when I was crying. It was such a pivotal moment in my life. I feel like it was destiny that it was my first platinum song ever.” 

I feel it’s my destiny to get the weekend party started by remixing the Hell out of Lizzo’s Truth Hurts for you. Also on tap are exclusive HK remixs of Ariana Grande, Ed Sheeran & Justin Bieber, Post Malone, Shaed, Normani, Diplo & Jonas Brothers, Lewis Capaldi, Sam Smith, Kygo & Whitney Houston. Plus new jams from Why Don’t We and Halsey, amped up mashups and so much more! The beats are massive, the party is epic and it’s all going down this weekend.

WHO IS BILLIE EILISH

Billie Eilish with her angst, bleak lyrics, heavy on creep factor music videos and too-cool-too-care look is far from the new Brittney Spears but she maybe a Madonna/Nirvanaadaptation for Gen Z. She’s the anti-pop edgy artist who has grabbed the pop universe by the throat and is ready to take it home. This girl’s got skills! At 13 Billie recorded her first viral hit. Prior to turning 17 this December her songs had been streamed over a billion times. Eilish’s critically acclaimed debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where do We Go?, which dropped last month, debuted at No.1 and she currently has 8 tracks in the Hot 100! Billie and her 21 year old brother Finnias wrote and produced the songs almost exclusively in their childhood bedrooms. She designs her own merchandise and insists on near-complete control. Billie Eilish may not be the traditional pop star of old but she is a supernova that is rising fast and fans are obsessed!

I’m obsessed…with bringing you the BEST party soundtrack of the weekend! Get ready for exclusive HK remixes on Billie’s top 10 hit Bad Guy, plus remixes on H.E.R., Mabel, Post Malone, Ellie Goulding & Diplo, The Jonas Brothers, Lauren Daigle, Lil Naz X featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, Ava Max, Ariana Grande, Lauv & Troy Sivan. Plus new singles fromBTS with Halsey, Jennifer Lopez featuring French Montana, mashups to turn up, a few surprises from the vault that will make your rump shake and so-much-more!

CAN SIA STRIKE GOLD WITH REJECTION?

Sia, the highly prolific hit maker, vocalist and songwriter is dropping her latest album This Is Acting next week! It’s comprised of songs she wrote for - and were rejected by - such stars as Katy Perry, Rihanna and Adele. With Sia’s incredible talent and passion chances are good that their loss will be Sia’s gain. The album’s first single Alive was written by Sia, Adele and Tobias Jesso Jr. and produced by Jesse Shatkin who also co-wrote and co-produced Sia’s huge four-time Grammy nominated smash Chandelier. I’m hoping Sia will have us swinging from a chandelier again with her latest outing.

I’m gonna have you swinging from chandeliers when I drop the needle on this weekend’s In The Mix with HK™! Get ready for exclusive HK remixes on…Elle King, The Weeknd, Selena Gomez, The Chainsmokers, Ellie Goulding and tons more! Plus brand new bangers from David Guetta/Sia, Diplo & Sleepy Tom, Shawn Hook and G-Eazy feat. Bebe Rexha. I'm also gonna revisit a classic from David Bowie and pull another surprise out of my road bag.

BIG ALBUMS ABOUT TO DROP!

It’s my favorite time of the year or as I like to call it… Big Album Droppin’ Season! Yes, killer albums are about to drop. Selena Gomez's second solo album Revival is splashing down this Friday! Her ex, you know, that guy Justin Bieber. He has one presumably entitled Purpose (based on his latest tat) that drops the same day as One Direction’ s fifth album Made In The AM on November 13th. Not sure that having the same release date is such a good marketing idea. The Biebes sure doesn’t like it, saying the only reason that 1D chose that date was to bring them publicity. On November 20th Adele’s much anticipated sophomore album 25 will be on the shelves. Hopefully soon after, and most likely prior to the Christmas buying season, Rihanna will deliver her eighth studio album called Anti. The anticipation is too much!!! I suggest we shower ourselves with current hits till these babies are in our hands.

With that in mind tune in this weekend to hear my EXCLUSIVE remixes on Nick Jonas, 1D, Selena Gomez, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, Audien and Demi Lovato. Plus brand new bangers from Skrillex-Diplo-AlunaGeorge, Rudimental & Ed Sheeran, Romans and DNCE. Trust me, there's even more to go around so let me be the soundtrack to your weekend party!

SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE'S A DJ TODAY!

For me DJing is a sacred creative art form. I keep it pure and mix manually, not by software or computer assist. Don't get me wrong, I'm a tech head. In the studio I'll use whatever it takes to make a track sound the way I want it too. But when I’m spinning it’s all about my hands and ears and the thrill of holding a great beat mix manually without the aid of beat matching software. But that’s just me. DJ Software programs and advances in technology, combined with the popularity of DJing have made it more inviting for people to become DJs. Actors, super models and even sports figures have been drawn to the call of the 1s and 2s. Some are surprising, take “Hodor” for instance, that’s right the guy from Game of Thrones, he’s been out spinning with his “Rave Of Thrones” tour (you gotta love the name). And when Shaquille O’Neal hung up his kicks he picked up two turntables and a microphone and is now DJ Diesel. Shaq will be taking his talents to TomorrowWorld this year. Other celebrities who’ve taken a spin around the decks include: Paris Hilton (paaalease), Lindsay Lohan, Kate Moss, Elijah Wood and wait for it…. Prince Harry (WHAT???). I know some of the celeb DJ crop are seriously better at partying than mixing. But hey! The fakers make the real DJ’s look even better and the skilled bring attention to the craft.

I’m bringin' some serious attention to your fave hits this weekend with custom HK remixes on The Weeknd, Major Lazer, The Skrillex-Diplo-Bieber collab, OMI, Selena Gomez, MKTO, Zedd and Taylor Swift. Plus new jams from Nick Jonas, Jess Glynne, Kaya Stewart, Little Mix and more!

ARIANA GRANDE VS. TAYLOR SWIFT - A PUBLIC RELATIONS HOW TO

God knows I love Ariana’s voice and songs. But that donut incident was seriously messed up and Ariana’s getting a lot of shade over it. Since Taylor Swift is one of today's best loved young artists, not to mention "The Most Charitable Celeb of 2014",  I’m thinking taking her lead might be genius. So Ariana here you go:

Ariana:

1. Only lick donuts that you have purchased. The general public doesn’t like you enough to eat your  saliva.
2. Never, ever, ever say you hate America… or any country, anyone or pretty much anything. If you must hate something, hate haters. Their always safe. 
3. Do NOT by any means do an insincere video apology that just makes you look even worse.
4. Do NOT do a second insincere video apology that just makes you look even worse than you did prior to the first lame apology.

Ariana Do Follow Taylor Swift's Lead Here:

1. Do donate $50,000.00 to help pay the medical bills for a girl with cancer.
2. Do defend your fellow artists in a professional way and make Apple pay out the royalties that artist have coming to them.
3. Do ask fans to star in one of your music videos.
4. Do send Christmas care packages to your biggest fans.
5. Throw a private concert for a 6-Year-Old with Leukemia.
6. Bring waiting fans a bunch of Pizzas (I mean, who doesn’t love pizza).
7. Do visit a fan wo was hit by a car and is getting better after brain surgery (That is sooo nice. I mean, any celeb can give money but when they give their time that is really cool).
8. Do donate all proceeds from your single about NYC to the NYC public schools.
9. Study Tay-Tay’s every move and do all the sweet, kind, loving things that she does….Your welcome!

Ok, now that class is out of session, let's turn up the summer heat. Get ready for EXCLUSIVE HK remixes on David Guetta-Nicki Minaj, Skrillex-Diplo-Bieber, Tove Lo, OMI, Andy Grammer, Major Lazer, Ed Sheeran and more! Plus brand new joints from Kaya Stewart, MKTO, Jason Derulo and Jess Glynne.
