Surely it’s no different to Nero? Their #1 song also has uncredited vocals.

Alana is considered to be a member of Nero whereas the no name vocalist on the LF System song isn’t a member of LF System

Yes I think they're a different case to Clean Bandit and Rudimental whose #1s were all "featuring" other present artists - if we overlook the OCC's lack of crediting on Rockabye.

As I started this thread, I'd better put my opinion in. I've never heard the song before. It seems to be a disco song from 1979 that two people have speeded up a bit. Who can blame me for not listening to the top 40 nowadays if this is the best that is on offer. Thank goodness, a classic from Kate Bush has been number 1 for the last few weeks.
So my verdict is : this cannot be added to the list as LF System are not a group with a regular lead singer. |

Has anyone mentioned Little Mix and Wham! in early 2021 yet?

^ yes they were mentioned on the previous page, also LadBaby just before them (not sure whether they really count as a group at all / for their previous #1s as well).
Honorable mention to the self-contained group who've had the longest running chart hit since then *.* |

I'm not sure I'd exactly call Roll Deep a "self-contained" group either. The girls singing the choruses on their number-ones weren't part of the group, and not only that but a lot of the actual group members aren't in the songs.

but the definition is very biased against dance groups
I'd rather have LF System than Ladbaby tbh |

Maybe the AI-enhanced Lennon is additional member of the group so it doesn't count.

Or maybe just change the criteria to self-contained group whose members are all still alive lol
