Hello poppies, on Today’s episode we celebrate National Pop Chart Day with a slew of super hits and the first set-o-mystery of the year. Yes, all of these monster hits have one thing in common. Plus we will delve a little bit into how streaming has diluted the charts and helped the monolithic mono-genre grow.
PopOff! is an “anything goes” musical show hosted by me DJ Bear. Every episode is a unique sonic road trip through the multitudes of genres, eras, and musicians in recorded music. So if you have an open mind for musical exploration climb into the PopOff! Bubble and let’s get to it!!
Also, you can catch PopOff! live Thursdays from 7-10 on KBear Radio. Featuring more songs and after parties with more songs. Plus my other live streamed shows occurring throughout the week. I put the roar in more musical variety. Just join me here at KBear Radio.
