Canadian singer/songwriter and Def Jam recording artist Alessia Cara emerged onto the music scene in 2015 with the release of her iconic anthem "Here." Co-written by Sebastian Kole, "Here" garnered over 500,000 total streams in its first week and went on to crack the Top 5 on Billboard's Hot 100 list, and rose to No. 1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop and Pop Songs charts in early 2016. A JUNO award winner for Breakthrough Artist of the Year, Cara has also been nominated for an AMA for Best New Artist of the Year. She also recently completed a summer tour with Coldplay before hitting the road for her "Know-It-All" part 2 tour. A five-track EP, Four Pink Walls, was released in August 2015, followed by the full-length Know It All three months later. Her latest single, "Scars to Your Beautiful," is Cara's gut-wrenching take on female identity, on body image and on deleterious behaviors in the name of beauty. Cara walks listeners through heartache but concludes with strains of promise: "So to all the girls that's hurting/Let me be your mirror, help you see a little bit clearer," and the touching refrain: "There's a hope that's waiting for you in the dark /You should know you're beautiful just the way you are." The song recently hit the top five of Billboard's Pop Songs chart.

Bay Area rapper G-Eazy is 2016's biggest breakout hip-hop artist. He has skyrocketed to superstardom with the release of his sophomore album "When It's Dark Out" (RVG/BPG/RCA Records), which debuted at #1 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Chart and Top Rap Albums Chart and #5 on Billboard 200 Albums Chart and now is RIAA certified platinum selling over 1 million copies in the US. The album features his smash single "Me, Myself, and I" with Bebe Rexha which is certified 3 times platinum and has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. The track was #1 at both Top 40 and rhythm radio for 2 weeks and reached #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. On Spotify, "Me, Myself, and I" has over 514 million listens and peaked at #2 on the US and #3 on Global Charts.

It's easy to get lost in the numbers behind Martin Garrix's meteoric rise. From his adolescent years to the onset of young adulthood, the 20-year-old Dutch superstar has already set precedents and scored landmarks at every corner of the music industry. Backed by Scooter Braun Projects, Martin has become one of electronic dance music's youngest superstars, with his 2013 release of his smash hit "Animals" topping the charts in late 2013 at the age of 17. Just three years later, Garrix was voted #1 on 2016's DJ Mag Top 100 Poll. The young producer has made both Billboard's prestigious "21 Under 21" 3 times, as well as Forbes' "30 Under 30" list twice. Just this month, Garrix won two 2016 MTV European Music Awards for Best Electronic and Best Worldstage Performance, cementing his stature as a cross over artist to be reckoned with. In 2015, Garrix won two MTV European Music Awards for Best Electronic Act for Best Dutch Act. This year, Garrix signed a global deal with Sony Music International marking his ascent into the very highest reaches of the music industry. His first single with RCA/Sony Music Intl, "In The Name Of Love" with Bebe Rexha, has amassed over half a billion streams in just 3 months and has become a massive hit worldwide. In addition, Garrix' remixed of one the biggest pop singles of recent years, The Weeknd's "Can't Feel My Face," clocking in over 46 million plays so far across YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify alone, which followed superstar collaborations with Usher ("Don't Look Down") and Ed Sheeran ("Rewind Repeat It"). Garrix also has residencies at two of world's most prestigious clubs: Omnia Las Vegas and Ushua�a Ibiza, and in addition, hosting his own evening every Friday during the summer at Ushua�a Ibiza called "Multiply" with special guests such as A-Trak, The Chainsmokers, Marshmello, Dillon Francis, and many more.

Over the last several years, Flo Rida has pulled off a pretty neat trick. Not only has the Florida-born rapper become a chart fixture thanks to the blockbuster singles "Low (feat. T-Pain)," "Right Round," "Club Can't Handle Me," and his most recent chart-topping hits, "Good Feeling" and "Wild Ones (feat. Sia)," he's also broken down barriers by uniting millions of fans of pop, hip-hop, and club music around the world and establishing himself as an international, genre-busting superstar in the process. Released in March 2008, Flo Rida's debut album, "Mail on Sunday," spawned three singles including "Low," which spent 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to become one of the most successful digital singles of the past decade going over 6x-platinum and was one of the most heavily rotated rap singles of 2008. He scored his first two Grammy nominations for "Best Rap/Sung Collaboration" and "Best Rap Song." In March 2009, Flo Rida released his second album R.O.O.T.S. (an acronym for "Route of Overcoming the Struggle"), which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard Top 200 and was nominated for a Grammy Award for "Best Rap Album." The album's first single, "Right Round," spent six weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100. In June 2010, Flo Rida scored his fourth Top 10 U.S. Hot 100 single with "Club Can't Handle Me" (also featured on the soundtrack to the film Step Up 3D) and gave fans a taste of what's to come on third studio album, Only One Flo (Part 1). The David Guetta-produced global anthem, "Club Can't Handle Me," is 3x-platinum. Flo Rida has a remarkable over 100 million singles sold worldwide. "Wild Ones (feat. Sia)" (4x platinum) marks the superstar's sixth consecutive RIAA platinum certified single not to mention his fifth top 5 hit on the all-encompassing Billboard "Hot 100" chart. Flo Rida has recently released his newest EP My House in October 2014. Promoted by its leading single, "G.D.F.R." feat. Sage the Gemeni, "G.D.F.R." quickly broke into the Top 10 U.S. Singles and has gone 3x platinum. This was followed by My House's most recent hit singles, "I Don't Like It, I Love It" feat. Robin Thicke, and "My House" which ascended to the #1 spot on the Pop Songs airplay - his 5th U.S. chart topper to date - and remained there for 3 weeks, while also selling more than 2 million singles worldwide and being named the top selling track of 2016.
