THE DEATH OF PRINT JOURNALISM: RAINBOW BRIDGE EDITION

Kemosabe/RCA’s Kesha graces the cover of our most recent print issue. Her return after a dramatic personal and professional ordeal, brings a hit single, “Praying,” and an album, Rainbow, that appears headed for a very splashy #1 chart bow. It would all seem to add up to a happy new chapter for the star, though you know she was praying she wouldn’t end up on the cover of this rag.

Our Contents Page VIP, meanwhile, is Capitol Music Group ruler Steve Barnett. Steve just presided over his yearly Capitol Congress, gathering the troops for a lively exchange of new music and ideas—while also celebrating current successes from Niall Horan, Halsey and more, and new music coming from Sam Smith. Steve’s feeling tip-top at the Tower; if only his Congress could repeal and replace us.
