This is gonna be quite a month of Sundays, between Super Bowl LIII (2/3), the Grammys (2/10), the NBA All-Star Game (2/17) and the Oscars (2/24) all must-see extravaganzas—and all with sizable musical components, this year especially. Just ask Interscope’s John Janick, Epic’s Sylvia Rhone, mega-manager Scooter Braun and CBS’ Jack Sussman, each of whom has serious skin in the game—which is why industry lips are flapping about them.
Concurrently, regular business is being conducted, notably by the chart-topping Backstreet Boys; Columbia’s Ron Perry, who’s taking a crash course in Swedish; Halsey, who’s ready for prime time; Crush Music, whose staffers look smashing in their new teal-and-black ensembles; and three dudes who are getting snazzy new business cards printed up.
