Strang hero
HERO WORSHIP: It's time for another music-biz superhero from our 28th Anniversary Issue, which recently plopped on industry desks; the comic-themed ish features a gallery of caped execs rendered by our own Van Arno. We post this mighty illustration of Warner Bros. chief Cameron Strang (click the pic for a bigger view) as the label enjoys a #1 bow by Blake Shelton and two Prince debuts, one at #3 and one at #10. The three releases give Strang the top spot in this week's frontline marketshare competition. Meanwhile, Strang's promo chief Peter Gray and team are crushing it as Nico & Vinz follow up their smash, Echosmith prepares to go Top 10 at Pop, Jason Derulo's "Trumpets" blasts at multiple formats, The Black Keys stay strong and tracks from Big Data, Priory and Death From Above 1979 make noise at Modern Rock.
