A LIL BIT COUNTRY,
A LIL BIT HITS LIST

Trending industry topics meet some of the stars of our Nashville Spotlight 2019 special issue this week, as genre-bending Lil Nas X battles Nashville-based Jack White’s Raconteurs for the top of the album chart, while multitasking label heads Scott Borchetta, Mike Dungan and Lynn Oliver-Cline comprise the Music Row contingent, and Taylor Swift will always be tied the city that served as her launchpad.

Putting their claims on the remaining Top 10 real estate are the exalted Sylvia Rhone, the chart-topping Khalid, Midas-touch manager Andrew Gertler and aggressive litigator Howard King, none of whom has yet visited the Grand Ole Opry, as far as we know.
