All change at the top as this week sees a surprise late bloom surge from Grace and DJ Cassidy with Lil Yachty. Honor gives all three contributors their highest-peaking track and first chart topper. Last week’s #1 from Lana Del Rey slips to #2 and is joined in the top 5 by another track from latest album Lust For Life, Beautiful People Beautiful Problems featuring Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac fame, an early album standout for me. BPBP’s ascension gives Lana a 6th top 5 track running. Yungen’s Bestie also re-peaks within this week’s top 5, and is joined by Marian Hill’s Wild, which ascends to #3 to become the alternative act’s highest peaker this year of three charters.

There’s a few new movers into the top 10, Sultan and Shepard’s Nadia Ali collab Almost Home is a welcome return for both and re-peaks at #6, Steve James and RKCB ascend to #8, and DJ Khaled’s Wild Thoughts zooms back up to re-peak in the top 10 for a fifth week after a few weeks of yo-yoing. In terms of brand new entries, again this week has a bunch, mainly down the low end. This week’s highest new entry goes, surprisingly, to ex-Eurovision winner Mans Zelmerlow with latest single We Can Be The Rulers, which I actually like a lot. Other notable new entries include the return of Pink, a debut from my favourite BJSC entry from last contest Kari Kimmel, Beck, Shakira, and Camila Cabello among others.

All new entries will be getting individual video links and a bit of commentary later on in the week, so check back and that’ll save you having to search them out individually, I’ll update the thread title accordingly when those are done. Apologies also for not getting last week’s up, I ended up having a much busier weekend than I anticipated. I’ll throw something up between now and the end of the week.
