2015 is set to be a killer year for music! It‘s already solid for great live performances, with Taylor Swift, Maroon 5, Ariana Grande, and One Direction getting’ ready to tear up the concert circuit.

BASTILLE TEARS IT UP LIVE! [PHOTOS]

Not all bands can rock the stage as well as the studio but Bastille does it with wicked skill and has been tearin’ up the U.S. on tour! We all know Bastille from their monster hit Pompeii, which climbed to #5 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and sold more than three million singles. They’re hoping to hit the charts again with their recently unveiled single, Torn Apart, set to drop November 30^th.  

Between touring gigs Bastille is hard at work on their second album. The group says they made their first album not knowing if anyone would hear it so they made if for themselves. They say the same will be true with their next album stating, “We want to make a record we love. But it’s weird to know that there are potentially a whole load of people waiting to hear it”.

You don’t have to wait to hear sick beats, bangers and all your faves. Tune in all weekend long when I’ll be blowin up the ones and twos with custom HK remixes on Iggy Azalea featuring Rita Ora – Black Widow, Jeremih featuring YG – Don’t Tell Em, Pitbull featuring John Ryan – Fireball, Tove Lo – Habits, Calvin Harris featuring John Newman -  Blame, Clean Bandit featuring Jess Glynne– Rather Be and so much more!

HOOK-UPS AND BREAK-UPS!

Despite being on top of the world and now in the NFL Hall of Fame, Michael Strahan and his longtime girlfriend Nicole Murphy officially broke up. Nicole decided to drop the news just as Michael was being inducted. Woman scorned or coincidence? You decide. In the meantime, there's been a lot of rumors about Beyonce and Jay Z entering splitsville. Lady B was spotted checking out a new apartment alone, and in a brand new remix she blasts the Hov! Maybe we'll eventually find out what really lead up to the now famous elevator brawl. In another hotel incident Ed Sheeran sings his heart out and bares all in his latest hit single Don't, which is all about a break up for him and a hookup for his ex!

On a positive note – while frolicking in Ibiza, Spain Michelle Rodriguez and Zac Effron made out like two horny teenagers in a club. That hookup took place just a day after Michelle was frolicking on a boat with Justin Bieber. Ahh, to be young, famous and wealthy!

This weekend on IN THE MIX WITH HK™ I'm gonna bring you a taste of the good life by hooking you up with bad ass breaks and non-stop music mixes! Be sure to tune in to hear what I've done to Charlie XCX – Boom Clap, Enrique Iglesias – Bailando, Becky G – Shower and Mr. Probz – Waves.

THE GIRLS ARE ON TOP!

This summer there is definitely a small group of ladies who are on top of their game and on top of the charts. You know who they are. You can hear them everywhere. Ariana Grande, Iggy Azalea, Charli XCX and Rita Ora. They've got hits on their own and hits together. Ariana teamed up with Iggy for arguably one of the summer's biggest hits - Problem and now has Break Free with Zedd shooting up the charts. But wait! This pint sized little powerhouse just dropped a slammin' new collab with Jessie J and Nicki Minaj entitled Bang Bang. And I suggest you get out of the way cause this one is gonna explode. Iggy has the other contender for #1 song of the summer with Fancy, which she did with Charli XCX, and that song just won't go away. Charli also has her solo hit Boom Clap sitting in the top 10 and it's still climbing. Meanwhile, Iggy has her new collab with Rita Ora - Black Widow rushing up the chart. Which takes us to Rita, who has her own I Will Never Let You Down blazing high up the charts.

See what I'm talking about. These ladies are on top with multiple…simultaneous…HITS! 

So with that in mind, I'm gonna bring you multiple eargasms while you're IN THE MIX WITH HK™ all weekend long all around the world.
