THE DEATH OF
PRINT JOURNALISM, PART 14,862
The cover of our latest print edition—which now comes out every other Monday—features RCA’s Elle King, whose recent Alt radio chart-topper “Ex’s & Oh’s” is now zooming up the Pop charts. Lloyd Bishop took the cover shot while Elle was sitting in with Seth Meyers’ 8G Band the week of May 18. By the way, Late Night With Seth Meyers was the first show to book Elle to perform “Ex’s & Oh’s” last November. There’s no stopping this bodacious newcomer, not even this HITS cover appearance.
Our Contents subject, meanwhile, is none other than Her Majesty, Adele. With a date announced for her wildly anticipated new XL/Columbia album—it will begin ruling the world on 11/20—and an NBC lockout assuring massive visibility, Adele is preparing to return to the Pop throne and dominate Q4 and beyond. How big will her forthcoming set be? We look forward to finding out. But we imagine this HITS Contents shout-out will make the global megastar yearn for obscurity.
