Pop Shop Podcast 12/4/14: Echosmith Interview, Jennifer Lawrence, Selena Gomez, Bruno Mars

Pop quartet Echosmith stops by to chat about the success of their Top 20 hit “Cool Kids,” their quickly growing audiences and getting paid in Chick-Fil-A platters in the group’s early years. Jason and Keith also have a ton to discuss in the charts world, including the new changes to the Billboard 200 albums chart; the Pentatonix album and the dearth of new Christmas music this year; new Top 10 singles from Selena Gomez and Bruno Mars, and what pushed them up the Hot 100 chart; and, most shockingly, actress Jennifer Lawrence’s Top 20 debut with a "Hunger Games: Mockingjay" song.
