This week’s Pop Shop Podcast previews Billboard’s inaugural Hot 100 Festival, with special guests/fest performers MKTO and Lights stopping by the show. MKTO discusses its new EP, Lights talks about new music and her tour, and both break down the benefits of playing the pop extravaganza that will be Hot 100 Fest. Before that, Jason and Keith discuss the Weeknd giving way to OMI at the top of the Hot 100 chart (but still scoring another Top 5 hit with “The Hills”), Luke Bryan dominating the Billboard 200 albums chart, Little Mix and Hailee Steinfeld making their Hot 100 starts, soon-to-be hits from Alessia Cara and A Great Big World, and a promise from Jason to buy anyone who recognizes him at Hot 100 Fest a soda!
