A week of steady rain in L.A. hasn’t dampened the voracious enthusiasm of industry chatterboxes. They’ve been chattering about inveterate multitasker Irving Azoff, pied piper of streaming Daniel Ek, marketshare Pac-Man Steve Barnett and the seasonally overdriven Ken Ehrlich. For these luminaries, as well as the rest of this week’s top 10, neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays them from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.
Meanwhile, the stars of Future, Lady Gaga and Post Malone are shining so brightly that they gotta wear shades, despite the prevailing gloom. We also have people with shiny new titles—namely, Julian Petty and JP Evangelista—while Justin Lubliner is a newcomer to HITS List, but the way Darkroom flagship artist Billie Eilish is going, we expect to see him in this space again.
