Zane Lowe

Zane Lowe's greatest achievement may be the countless artists he has helped launch and the way he has reshaped music interviewing. His "Hottest Record in The World" segment on BBC Radio 1 broke Ed Sheeran, The 1975, and many others. At Apple Music, he has conducted landmark interviews with nearly every major artist of the past decade, earning a reputation as the interviewer who gets artists to open up like no one else. In 2025, The Atlantic called him "The Happiest Man in Music," and Billboard dubbed him "The Rock Star Whisperer." His emotional, sweater-clad approach has become iconic in music media.
