AVA MAX & BILLIE EILISH BRING ATTENTION TO MENTAL HEALTH

Billie Eilish and Ava Max are using their celebrity to do good. Both are advocates for mental health in the new “Seize the Awkward” PSAs from the Ad Council and American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Eilish and Max encourage talking openly about mental health struggles. Billie’s video highlights the importance of checking in on your loved ones and taking care of yourself. Eilish says “It doesn’t make you weak to ask for help”. Ava’s video reflects on her experiences in public high school after being home-schooled when she ended up eating lunch in the bathroom. She asks fans to “Seek help when you’re not feeling mentally there. Because we’ve all been there and it’s normal”.

THE JONAS BROTHERS "COOL" COMEBACK

After 6 years without releasing a single note The Jonas Brothers comeback smash Sucker has spent six weeks in the top 10. The JoBros penned this #1 hit with Ryan Tedder who, aside from being the frontman of OneRepublic, has also written hit tracks for Adele (Rumor Has It) and Beyoncé (Halo) along with a ton more. The boys are now in good company and hitting career milestones but these reunited siblings aren’t maxing and relaxin’.

LADIES RULE THE CHARTS

2019 is shaping up to be the year of female music chart domination. In 2018 solo female stars hit #1 on the chart for 11 weeks. Just a few months into 2019 and the ladies have already matched that number with Ariana Grande and Halsey leading the charge. If Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift drop new music this year and Ariana keeps clicking off hits, plus P!nk’s new album comes out April 26^th...the ladies are gearing up for one great year!

BEBE'S "LAST HURRAH"

Bebe Rexha is climbing the charts with her latest banger and first single of 2019 – Last Hurrah. Bebe said the track was “Inspired by a friend. She was supposed to be on as diet and she ate a piece of chocolate cake and her husband was like aren’t you supposed to be on a diet? She responded to him by saying babe this is my last hurrah. Meaning it's gonna be one more night of me messing up.” Bebe says the track is all about seizing the night one last time, even if it means doing some bad things along the way. 

I’m gonna be seizing the night this weekend on In The Mix with HK™ with Bebe’s new smash. Plus custom HK remixes of Ariana Grande, Panic!

DEAN LEWIS WILL "BE ALRIGHT"

I’d say Dean Lewis is more than alright. This week the Australian singer-songwriter tops the Billboard’s Emerging Artists chart for the very first time on the strength of his breakout single “Be Alright”. Lewis’s hit also reaches a new high on the Hot 100 climbing to an impressive No. 29. His first album, A Place We Knew, is due to drop March 22^nd and he’s proud and excited about it. Lewis said “I’ve been able to write this album from what feels right.” On getting down to the 12 songs that made it on the final album he says, “I actually did about 60 songs, but…there were always ones that held their hand up.”

This weekend I’ve got the tunes to keep everybody’s hands up…and they’ll stay there! I’ll be kicking things off with a custom HK remix of Dean Lewis’s smash plus turning up the wattage on hits from Imagine Dragons, Panic! At The Disco, Ariana Grande, Why Don’t We, Sam Smith & Normani, The Chainsmokers and 5SOS, Marshmello featuring Bastille, Benny Blanco with Halsey and Khalid, Dua Lipa and so much more!

PANIC! AT THE DISCO'S "HIGH HOPES" ARE PAYING OFF

The aspirational hit song High Hopes has climbed to #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The tracks strong triumph over adversity lyrics, “Had to have high, high hopes for a living. Shooting for the stars when I couldn’t make a killing. Didn’t have a dime but I always had a vision.”, are resonating with diehard and new Panic! At The Disco fans. Frontman Brendon Urie explained the meaning behind the song and what inspired the lyrics in a tweet saying – “I spent too long not setting my expectations high enough, worried about how it felt to fail. I hit a point when I realized I had to aim high and fail, fail, fail in order to keep growing.” Congrats go out to Urie on Panic!’s success and his smash hit. 

This weekend I’m aiming high with an HK exclusive remix on High Hopes. Plus custom HK remixes on fresh Grammy nominated tracks from Silk City & Dua Lipa featuring Diplo & Mark Ronson, Travis Scott, Lady Gaga & Bradly Cooper.
