THE FALL GUYS
OF HITS LIST
The first full week of autumn has been an eventful one in the music biz—no debating that. Monte Lipman’s Republic empire puts the spotlight on a trio of Toronto starboys in Island’s chart-topping 18-year-old Shawn Mendes, OVO superstar The Weeknd and YMCMB Sultan of Streams Drake. Grammy season officially kicks off with the 9/30 end of the eligibility period, whereupon Grammy whisperer Paul Grein gives his latest fearless forecast. A pair of SYCO mainstays bid adieu to their longtime home and head to Hollywood. And the entire civilized world utters a collective WTF as YouTube selects Lyor Cohen as its Global Head of Music. You can’t make this shit up.
