Azealia holds the top spot for a second week against strong risers from Rebecca & Fiona, Lily Allen and Nicki Minaj. Jorja Smith also scores her first top ten this week with the brilliant Blue Lights which is for me, so many orders of magnitude better than her Stormzy collab Let You Down. Lily's Higher has really grown on me this month and ends up outpeaking Trigger Bang, while Rebecca & Fiona hit heights they haven't seen since I discovered them back in 2012. Chun-Li is also really lining up to be a top spot threat next week - if it made it, it would only be Nicki's third chart topper for me, probably not a great show for a Nicki forum mod!

Highest new entry this week goes to the return of Ariana Grande; No Tears Left To Cry debuts just outside this week's top ten. It's Grande's ninth top 40 and 8th top 20 appearance for me, only Focus missed that milestone.
Other brand new tracks debuting this week come from GoldFish, Cardi B, a posthumous one for Avicii that I've been using as a tribute of sorts, Basenji, Lykke Li, BoTalks, Zapata, En Vogue, Kimbra, Nitty Scott, Warpaint, Bjork, Young Thug, and Dita Von Teese, who's released a solo album. Who knew?
I'll link the videos to those a bit later in the week to save you having to imagine what they sound like

If you can't wait of course, feel free to check out my (linked) spotify playlists at the bottom of this post where you'll find them and a bunch of other great tracks
