Capitol Music Group's
BET Awards weekend party at
Casa Madera at L.A.'s
Mondrian was packed with beautiful people. Fortunately, a few
HITS staffers were there to balance things out.
"Hey, remember when we lived in our sweatclothes for two years and only brushed our teeth if there was a Zoom?" riffed
Capitol Music Group President
Arjun Pulijal. "Me neither." Seen sporting footwear that we could only dream of pulling off are (l-r) VPs A&R
Kenoe Jordan and
Chris Turner, Pulijal and CMG EVP/
Priority Records President
Orlando Wharton.
The dazzling artist
Doechii, who is slated to perform on the BET telecast, is flanked by promo boss
Greg Marella (r) and SVP promo
Dixie Tipton, who say the call-out research on this photo is outstanding.

Tamla Records/CCMG SVP Marketing
