Is social media strangling music? This week we look at Mariah Carey, Thicke and Busta Rhymes’ recent #hashtag tracks and see if there’s something too all that chatter or if it’s just a way to keep the kids interested. We time travel back to Jonno’s first ever online writing with Midnight Juggernauts, learn about Polish-American models with Robin Thicke, make fun of Mark’s parents’ obsession with Simply Red and discuss why everyone’s taking a punt on Chance the Rapper.
