Show by Slate Podcasts
For decades, America’s Hot 100 pop chart has been regularly invaded by Canadian artists like Paul Anka, the Guess Who, Bryan Adams, Céline Dion, Justin Bieber, and Drake. Yet in Canada, some of these Canucks’ biggest hits aren’t considered fully “Canadian.”Join Chris Molanphy for a look at how the country’s requirements for Canadian content, or CanCon, on radio, television, and other cultural outlets has influenced the music industry and entire careers on both sides of the border. From Kon Kan’s “I Beg Your Pardon” to Tate McRae’s recent “Housewife,” Chris explores how much credit, or blame, Canada’s radio rules deserve for what Americans hear on the pop charts.For more chart history for the Great White North, check out Hit Parade’s recent episode on Celine Dion.Get more Hit Parade with Slate Plus!
