Another week, another number 1. Nicki Minaj becomes the first rapper to top the charts so far this year as her ‘No Frauds’ hits the top spot this week. The track’s a bit Drake-lite and fittingly, features Drake, along with Lil Wayne. Women make up the bulk of the top 5 this week as Inna, Era Istrefi, and Dreezy end the week at 2, 3, and 5 respectively. Dangerous by the XX also ascends into the top 5 from its second week in the low 20s. A slow burning track that saw a surge this week, it's the group's second charter from new album I See You, and second consecutive top 5 following three-week #1 On Hold.

New entries this week come from Clean Zara, Drake, Ariana Grande, another from Zara Larsson, a new one from Goldfrapp, Gorillaz, Møme, R3hab featuring VERITE, indie pop bands Tennis and Miniature Tigers, and TCTS’s track with Sage the Gemini and Kelis, who hasn’t had a hit on my personals in a long time. It also feels like this week’s chart has more than the usual share of left-field picks. I blame the slow-moving mainstream charts, looking forward to some more big releases – although I do enjoy all the indie discoveries I make too. On to this week’s longlist!
