CHESTER: GRIN AND BARRETT

Warner promo boss Mike Chester is doing the responsible thing and wearing his mask—a particularly wise choice when venturing near us—but underneath that thing he's wearing a huge smile as Gabby Barrett's "I Hope" flies into the Top 10 at Pop radio. Gabby is now #8 on the Mediabase Real-Time Classic chart as this smash continues to work its powerful magic. Mike and team (including Dave Dyer, Ko-Fung Shih and Josh Reich, seen below) are instituting new protocols now, whereby they clean their phones with bleach after we call.
