KDWB's Star Party lands hot, hot hitmakers

Ke$ha (top) and B.o.B.

We've made a big fuss over the lineups landed by 89.3 the Current for Rock the Garden and Cities 97 for Basilica Block Party. But let's hear it, too, for KDWB. For its annual Star Party, the station has booked five of the top 9 artists on this week's Billboard Hot 100.

And the other four hot stars -- Rihanna, Lady Antebellum, Lady Gaga and Usher -- are touring in arenas, not clubs like Epic, where Star Party will be presented on May 20.

Here's the Star Party lineup:

B.o.B., the Atlanta rapper whose debut single "Nothin' on You" is No. 1.

Ke$ha, the party girl who scored with "Tik Tok" and is in the Top 10 again with "Your Love Is My Drug."

Jason Derulo, the Miami singer who soared last year with "Whatcha Say" and is hot again with "In My Head."

Taio Cruz, the British singer/rapper whose debut US. single "Break your Heart" (featuring Ludacris) went to No. 1.

Train, the veteran California rockers known for 2001's "Drops of Jupiter" who have rebounded with "Hey, Soul Sister."

Also appearing are Orianthi, Michael Jackson's guitarist from "This Is It," and Lifehouse, which has done these KDWB shows before thanks to the 2001 smash "Hanging by a Moment."

Tickets are not for sale, but KDWB (101.3 FM) is giving them away.
