Mini 63 - What Hits? (9x9)

Constructor's Note
Pleased with this theme, but the execution could surely be better. (Went through a lot of options, and still got just a taste of how much work and how many revisions go into some publishable themed puzzles!) Still, hope you enjoy; would really appreciate any feedback, especially on rough spots in the grid and any ways to ease the cluing. Thank you!

    I actually thinks it's fine as it is - cluing is reasonable and there's no cringeworthy fill. Nice puzzle!

    Well done!

      Thrilled to learn the term AAVE from 27A. So much better than the less than neutral term “Ebonics” that I grew up with. A very fun solve.

          Enjoyed it, thanks. I can't seem to find any info on this Chris Hemsworth track. Care to enlighten me?

            Thank you! I’m honestly not sure which “Chris Hemsworth” it is, but here’s the track on Spotify — it’s a mellow electronic instrumental, and if I did my research correctly it actually made it onto the Billboard Top 100 at some point. (This is one of the aspects that I wish I could have improved, but I finally just wanted to publish!)

              Thanks! Didn't realize it was one word.

                I was wrong, I found it on Spotify, not on the Billboard charts! Clued only that way, this would definitely be too obscure
