ON THE COVER:
BENSON BOONE
Warner’s Benson Boone has enjoyed an extraordinary run with “Beautiful Things,” which has earned north of 1 billion streams on Spotify alone; his Fireworks & Rollerblades album has also yielded several other big-streaming cuts. As one of the year’s true breakout acts, he likewise looks likely to earn some serious Grammy love, which would garnish an already sweet year for label co-bosses Aaron Bay-Schuck and Tom Corson. One experience Boone may not find so beautiful: Appearing on the cover of the misbegotten thing we call HITS.
