New Video Podcast ‘SUPERFANS’ Brings Music Fans Together for the Concert Experience of a Lifetime
Hosted by Billboard’s Lyndsey Havens, the series features fans of Kid Cudi, Peso Pluma, Stray Kids, Big Boi, KATSEYE and A$AP Rocky, with surprise artist encounters along the way
NEW YORK, OCTOBER 22, 2026 — Two strangers. One favorite artist. A concert they'll never forget.
SUPERFANS, a new video podcast premiering October 27 on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts, brings together people from different walks of life who share a love for the same artist, revealing the stories, memories and experiences behind their fandom.
Hosted by Billboard’s Executive Editor Lyndsey Havens, each episode follows two superfans as they meet for the first time and head to a concert together. Along the way, they trade favorite songs, share what the music has meant to them and discover unexpected common ground, with surprise artist encounters making the experience even more memorable.
The inaugural season opens with Kid Cudi fans, followed by episodes featuring fans of Peso Pluma, Stray Kids, Big Boi, KATSEYE and A$AP Rocky.
"I've spent my career reporting on and championing music, so getting to hear from the fans who love it most has been incredible,” said Lyndsey Havens, Executive Editor at Billboard and host of SUPERFANS. “Each episode takes us inside a different fandom to meet the people whose lives have been shaped by the music and artists they love. From the pride Peso Pluma inspires in his fans to the infectious energy of Stray Kids' STAYs and the people who found their career paths through Kid Cudi's openness about mental health, it's been so special to see how deeply music can impact our lives. I can't wait for everyone to hear these stories.”
SUPERFANS is co-produced by Magnet Originals and Live Nation. The series follows Living for the City, hosted by MacArthur Fellow and New York Times bestselling author Hanif Abdurraqib, whose first season explores Detroit through its neighborhoods, record stores, clubs and the people behind its music.
