HITS LIST: ON-RAMP TO Q4
October starts Sunday. So does Max Lousada, who inevitably tops the latest iteration of our trending-topics Top 10. Lousada’s official start date is Oct. 1, a day after the annual deadline for the Grammys release year. Feels like a pivotal moment in our corner of the world.

The dog days are over, boys and girls—welcome to Rocktober ’17.
