It's been nearly a decade since Rihanna released a studio album—and fans and critics alike have wondered when, if ever, a follow-up to 2016's Anti might arrive. Which is ironic, because in her heyday, Rihanna was the most productive hitmaker on the charts. Churning out at least one album a year in the late aughts and early ‘10s,  Rihanna's approach to the charts was closer to early Motown or the Beatles than Beyoncé or Taylor. The result: the Barbadian pop deity scored more No. 1s than any 21st century artist, from “SOS” and “Umbrella” through “Diamonds” and “Work.”  Join Chris Molanphy as he traces Rihanna's journey from tropical tyro to commanding chart queen and explores how she found hits at a boundless pace.

Lovebugs: 25 Jahre Hitparade und das neue Album «Heartbreak City»

Swissmade

Fast zehn Jahre nach ihrem letzten Studioalbum melden sich die Lovebugs mit «Heartbreak City» zurück. Es klingt, als wären sie nie weggewesen. Das liegt vor allem daran, dass Musik für Sänger Adrian Sieber und seine Band nicht nur Freude bringt, sondern ihr Lebenselixier ist. Von der Teilnahme an einem Bandcontest bis zum neuen Album der Lovebugs sind über 30 Jahre vergangen. Songs wie «Coffee And Cigarettes», «Bitter Moon» oder auch «Music Makes My World Go Round» waren zwar keine Hits, fühlen sich aber bis heute durchaus so an. Es gab erfolgreiche Tourneen, erfolgreiche Nummer-1-Alben und es regnete Gold- und Platinauszeichnungen für zehntausende verkaufte Alben. Doch nach dem Album «Land Ho!» (2016), spätestens aber nach dem Live-Album «At The Plaza» (2018), stockte der Zug. Nicht alle Weggefährten der Band hatten den gleichen Drang weiterzumachen wie Sänger Adrian Sieber. Offiziell hat sich die Band zwar nie aufgelöst, wie er immer wieder betonte, doch die Jahre zogen ins Land und er veröffentlichte Musik ohne seine Lovebugs. Doch im Oktober 2024 meldete sich die Band in neuer Besetzung und mit dem neuen Song «Coraline» eindrucksvoll zurück – gerade so, als wären sie nie weggewesen. Mit «Heartbreak City» folgt nun ein Studio-Album, 25 Jahre nach ihrem ersten Album, das in den Charts landete. Wer jetzt ein verstaubtes Album erwartet, sieht sich getäuscht. Die Lovebugs klingen nach Lovebugs, mit grossem Wiedererkennungswert, aber jederzeit frisch und dynamisch. 11 neue Songs für alle Lovebugs-Fans und solche, die es noch werden wollen. Es ist nie zu spät! Adrian Sieber, Lovebugs-Urgestein, und Florian Senn, der 2001 zur Band stiess, sind live zu Gast bei Moderatorin Marietta Tomaschett.

Willkommen zur Hitparade! In Teil 2 unserer Four Tops räumen wir mal gründlich auf mit dem Vorurteil, wir würden immer nur obskure und unbekannte Songs vorstellen. Nachdem Linus mal kurz die Grenzen von Torstens Musikgeschmack ausgetestet hat, spielen wir nur noch Songs, die bestimmt fast jede*r kennt. Kaum zu glauben, dass es bis Folge 44 gedauert hat, bis die Fab Four mal in unseren Four Tops vorkommen. Des weiteren enthüllen wir, wer sich hinter dem Decknamen "Mr Yacht Rock" verbirgt und fragen uns, was eigentlich aus Benny Santini geworden ist. Vielleicht kann uns da ein englischer Musiker Auskunft geben? Hier findet ihr den in der Folge erwähnten Podcast über Yacht Rock ("The Yacht or Nyacht Podcast"). Ob ein bestimmter Song dem Genre Yacht Rock zugeordnet werden kann oder nicht, erfahrt ihr hier. Mehr über das Phänomen "Doobie Bounce" gibt es auf dieser Website.

When you think of music in the 1960s, some groundbreaking artists probably come to mind: Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix and the Jefferson Airplane, for example. But the pop charts paint a very different picture of that decade, which embraced easy listening, groovy bubblegum, novelty and instrumental records—even a guitar-strumming Belgian nun.  In other words, the soundtrack of the era was more like Mad Men and less like Forrest Gump.

In the late 1980s, the English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys dominated the U.K. pop charts and staged an invasion of the American charts. Years later, founding member Neil Tennant dubbed this streak of creative and commercial supremacy the group's “imperial phase”—a term that eventually caught on among music critics and pop fans. So, what does it take for an artist to achieve imperial dominance? Why might Fleetwood Mac in the 1970s or The Weeknd in the 2010s qualify, while Cher or Lizzo don't quite fit the bill? Are there rules for imperial phases? Hit Parade's Chris Molanphy says yes—he's got chart rules for determining when an artist is at peak imperiality. And he says Madonna's late '80s streak of hits might be the ultimate imperial phase.

Dylan not only kept recording. He actually started topping the charts—in the 1970s, the era of Led Zeppelin, not Pete Seeger. And several of his chart-topping albums came decades later, in the 21st century. Bob's voice got rougher, but loyal audiences kept buying his music. Several of these platinum Dylan LPs are among the most acclaimed in rock history—from Blood on the Tracks to Time Out of Mind. And Dylan stayed an object of fascination through all his changes—as a road warrior, a born-again Christian, a Traveling Wilbury, a JFK conspiracy theorist.

And several of his chart-topping albums came decades later, in the 21st century. Bob's voice got rougher, but loyal audiences kept buying his music. Several of these platinum Dylan LPs are among the most acclaimed in rock history—from Blood on the Tracks to Time Out of Mind. And Dylan stayed an object of fascination through all his changes—as a road warrior, a born-again Christian, a Traveling Wilbury, a JFK conspiracy theorist. Join Chris Molanphy as he walks through Bob Dylan's career decade by decade, from his '60s folkie years to his 21st-century revival. With the biopic reviving interest in rock's poet laureate, there's never been a better time to get tangled up in Bob. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis. Learn more about your ad choices.

Today on an encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to siblings Deb Scott Studebaker & Stan Warnow about their musician/inventor Raymond Scott. Like our good friend Ernie Kovacs, some of you might have heard the name Raymond Scott but don't really know who he was or what he did. Others however, might be salivating knowing that one of the 20thCenturies musical geniuses is the subject of this episode. Either way, both Deb and Stan graciously sat down together to do this interview & wowed us with tales of their complex genius dad. Vintage cartoon fans might know Scott from his songs “Powerhouse” and “Toy Trumpet,” classic television and radio fans may know him and his orchestra from the show “Your Hit Parade” and others may know him as the Godfather of the modern synthesizer & inventor of the Clavinex & Electronium. A performer, a demanding band leader, a composer and the Director of Motown's electronic and research department, Raymond Scott was nothing if not prolific. In addition, we discuss Deb's mother, entertainer Dorothy Collins who was a Broadway star, a nightclub performer and a television star on shows like The Hollywood Palace. We get the lowdown on a father so driven by his creations he gave up performing for tinkering in his office and being one of the founders of electronic music as well as fax machine – decades before it became a reality. It's positively Looney Tunes on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.

That damned jingle! In that infernal commercial trying to sell you cars, sneakers, soda, gum! Can't get it out of your head? Well, what if we made it longer, had a famous singer perform it, and put it on the radio? How would you like it then? A surprising number of hits across chart history got their start in advertisements: the Carpenters song that was originally a promo for a California bank. The '70s country-pop smash by a character who didn't exist, and was selling you sliced bread. The Sting song that began as a Japanese beer jingle. The Chris Brown song that sneaked a chewing-gum slogan into the chorus. And that's beyond all the songs and artists whose trajectories were changed by an ad placement—whether it was the R&B classics licensed to sell you Levi's jeans or the indie-rock songs anointed by Apple to make iPod-wearing silhouettes bop.

You know her honorific: Queen of Soul. And heavy is the head that wears the crown. In her lifetime, Aretha Franklin didn't just want to be revered. She wanted hits. But Franklin made pop come to her, not the other way around. When showtunes and standards didn't work in the '60s, Aretha switched to gritty R&B and gospel harmonies—and started topping the charts. When she recorded a live album in a church in the '70s, it became her best-seller. When the MTV era changed the game in the '80s, she did New Wave synthpop her way—and topped the charts again. In the '90s, she tried house, hip-hop and New Jack Swing, scoring hits deep into her fifties. Join Chris Molanphy as he explains how Aretha Franklin earned her regal title, one hit at a time. She won our respect by infusing the charts with a holy spirit and amazing grace—and she always remained a natural woman. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis. Learn more about your ad choices.
