JOHN JANICK

Interscope Geffen A&M boss John Janick had an absolutely stellar 2023, with killer market share, huge chart success and a knockout showing among the Grammy noms. Meanwhile, his Geffen and Interscope Miami divisions blossomed and his HYBE partnership bore fruit. Janick, whose artist-development chops are a marvel of the biz, discusses all of the above and more in a wide-ranging interview in this issue. Our cover image, meanwhile, finds him serene before an ocean panorama. Then we rowed ashore on our rubber raft.
