2018 without a doubt is ‘The Year of Cardi B’ where the artist’s larger than life personality dominates on Pandora’s biggest station, Today’s Hits and has over 535 million spins making her the #1 artist with the most station adds across all listeners. Additionally, her track “I Like It” from her #1 debut album Invasion of Privacy claims the #3 Pandora song overall. Since releasing her Grammy nominated debut single, “Issues,” and recent Today’s Hits playlist favorite, “Jump” ft. Trippie Redd, Julia Michaels has amassed over 223 million spins on Pandora. Prior to making her debut as a solo artist, Michaels became one of pop music’s most in-demand songwriters. The cumulative worldwide stream tally for songs she has co-written is 20 billion to date, with 21 titles that have charted on the Billboard Hot 100, eleven of which have hit the Top 40, including “Issues.” DaniLeigh, the emerging R&B singer and songwriter who appeared on Pandora’s Predictions Chart, has landed on two of Pandora’s biggest stations, Todays’ R&B and Hip Hop Hits as well as Today’s Hip Hop and Pop Hits with her current single “Lil Bebe”. A regular on the NYC DJ circuit with his energetic club remixes being requested by some of the most well-known celebrities, DJ Big Ben rounds out the entertainment for the evening.
In conjunction with our partners Clorox®, Glade®, Lane Bryant, Mattress Firm, Shutterfly, Inc., Spectrum, Tony Chachere’s® Famous Creole Cuisine and Ulta Beauty, Pandora will build out an interactive event for guests including custom activations to compliment music provided by the lineup of extraordinary talent.
