1. Ariana's album will be massive, but not critically acclaimed.
2. Cardi B's profile will get a lot smaller and she may not have any top 10 solo hits.
3. Miley Cyrus will release a new album along with a banger lead single and it'll outperform her last album.
4. Little Mix will have another top 10 hit, but a quiet year other than that.
5. Christina Aguilera will collaborate with a major artist, maybe Mark Ronson/David Guetta, and it'll do fairly well.
6. Leona Lewis will release and do better than I Am or Glassheart with a top 40 single.
7. Adele will tease a release but'll end up waiting until early 2020.


COME ON #5!! That’s the post I most want to come true from

I think Dua Lipa could have her Teenage Dream era if she nails it for album 2.

The Weeknd will have a prolific year, with at least one #1. Drake's presence will fade. Kendrick Lamar will release an album that gets huge levels of critical acclaim.

I expect Billie Eilish will have a big year too, 'When The Party's Over' will set her up well for her next single to be a big top 10 and her album will do well.
Called it! biggrin.gif

(not that it was a particularly bold prediction lol, it was very clear she'd be doing well this year, glad it's happening though as her new song's great)

A bit late but thought I might as well:

1. Rihanna will return with a giant #1 and an album which will sell poorly at first but have big longevity; the singles era will be cut short (the rest will underperform).
2. Stormzy will have a massive album campaign with his first top 5.
3. Beyoncé will return with solo music and have a few top 20 hits but the album will underperform.
4. Little Mix will struggle with the rest of their current era and will quickly start the next album campaign which will be massive (#1 album, single etc.).
5. Ariana's album will have outstanding streaming numbers and have decent longevity but the album will be heavily negatively received.
6. Miley Cyrus will have a critically acclaimed album but it will underperform.
7. Nicki Minaj's album will be critically panned and the era will be canned quickly.
8. Justin Bieber will return with a DJ collab that will be a slow burner hit; his album will be massive in Q4.
9. Ariana will collab with a male artist which will break streaming records.
10. the Spice Girls will have a flop single (due to streaming) but the album will have big pure sales.
11. Another musical will have big soundtrack success but not to the extent of The Greatest Showman
12. Cardi B will struggle to have another solo hit
13. Drake’s return will be big but muted compared to his past era
14. Adele will return with a completely different sound - massive success but not anywhere close to the past
15. Mabel will reach #1 with a later single and her album will perform moderately
16. Billie Eilish will snuggle for single success after the album release
17. Due Lipa will have a muted year and Ava Max will find success as a featured artist on a song
18. Katy Perry and Lady Gaga will return with pop albums which will be somewhat big with good longevity
19. None of the 1D boys will happen this year
20. Calvin Harris will drop a massive album with high profile collabs (ie. Drake, Ariana, Ed Sheeran, Post Malone etc.)
21. Sam Smith will have a mixed reception this era with slightly disappointing sales

Further predictions. UK CHART.
1. Camila Cabello will continue to be the most successful 5H girl. Album 2 and its lead single will both chart within the top 5.
2. Normani will have a successful single where again she is a featured artist. Her solo single without features will miss the top 75, and her album will flop despite receiving critical praise.
3. Cheryl will release a further two singles which will make the top 40. Her album will be teased but unreleased.
4. Dalton will be more successful than Rak-Su and Matt Terry with his post X Factor single.
5. The Voice UK still won’t produce a star. Last year’s winner Rutis album will make top 40 for one week before dropping out.
6. A film will be made regarding a deceased music legends life or disbanded group will be a big hit with its soundtrack and that artists discography having a large resurgence to a new audience.
7. Ellie Goulding’s album will become her lowest selling album.
8. Mark Ronson, Miley Cyrus and Gaga will record a duet what will go top ten.
9. Katy Perry won’t release an album but will revert back to her old image and style in terms of appearance.
10. Zara Larsson will fall foul of the second album curse.
11. Billie Eillish and Khalid will both have another big sleeper hit which doesn’t chart top 20 but stays in the chart for months.
12. The Weeknd will release another album which will be more like his earlier material. It’ll sell consistently.
13. Any singles from LM5 will feature a newly recorded version of the single with a rapper or a international artist, only female artists however.
14. Anne Marie will have a quieter year after a BRITs performance.
15. Jess Glynne will get that 8th UK #1 as a feature.
16. James Arthur will release an album which sells well over Q4 but only has one hit single from it.
17. Leona Lewis will comeback to bigger success than I Am but only slightly bigger.
18. Dua Lipa will have a number one album with her second album and her debut will still be in the top 100 year end.
19. Another young rapper will be killed causing them to take over Spotify for a week following the death.
20. Clean Bandits album will recover and eventually go top ten for one week.
21. Calvin Harris will release an album what goes top ten.
22. Sigrid, Marina and The Diamonds, Charli XCX and Kesha will all release albums what go top 40 for one week before dropping out.
23. Duffy still won’t make a return
24. Jax Jones will release a big summer single.
25. Coldplay will return with a #1 album.



Already got two of these right.

Omg I’m so tired I didn’t even read it properly I just knew I said newly recorded version.

Here’s hoping they release a further Ms Banks version after BRITs so I can half claim it haha.

No way LM can have a massive NEW era this year so soon after LM5 underperforming, that'd be unprecedented in modern pop music (the 1980s onwards).

Looking back on my own predictions.

QUOTE(danVember @ Nov 16 2018, 03:30 PM) *
what songs do you expect will really take off in the new year?

let's start with the obvious, 'Sweet But Psycho' will be top 10 by January. this took off a lot sooner than I expected

I expect Billie Eilish will have a big year too, 'When The Party's Over' will set her up well for her next single to be a big top 10 and her album will do well. that happened

Lewis Capaldi 'Grace' or Tom Grennan 'Found What I've Been Looking For' could be the big 'indie' hit of Q1. lovelytheband 'Broken' could potentially be a late crossover hit too as that's doing well in the US. Grace did well, the others not

Rihanna to finally come back with new music next year and get a multi-week #1 too. never happened sad.gif



QUOTE(danVember @ Nov 17 2018, 03:40 PM) *
nah I reckon we'll continue to get a load of UK urban hits. it'll be a big year for Dave and Stormzy particularly. big years for both of them



QUOTE(danVember @ Nov 27 2018, 04:44 PM) *
This will be the next random US rap hit to cross over here which just about everyone on Buzzjack will dislike...

Flipp Dinero - Leave Me Alone made top 40 but wasn't really a big hit



QUOTE(dancember @ Dec 1 2018, 09:33 AM) *
Also, expecting more soundtracks to get big, The Lion King remake particularly. and that produced no top 40 hits oops



QUOTE(dancember @ Dec 25 2018, 09:20 PM) *
Rihanna is one of those people who could drop a song/album out of nowhere after ages and have tons of hype. I hope she does a sudden album drop in Q1 as she'll do insanely well on streams, go straight to #1 and get decent album sales too as she'll have very little competition. could happen in 2020?



QUOTE(danuary @ Jan 7 2019, 03:53 PM) *
Rihanna will surprise drop her album all at once before the end of Q2 which will get record first week streams for a female artist. One of the songs enters at #1 and spends a few weeks there. still nothing from her
Ed will release a 3 track EP, which will take up the UK's top 3 positions for a month. At least one of the tracks will have a big UK rapper on it (Stormzy or Dave). single with Stormzy and album track with Dave happened, full album was released instead of EP and he never took up the entire top 3
Cardi B will get a #1 single, either as lead or featured artist. Nicki Minaj meanwhile has an off year. no Cardi #1, but I was right about Nicki
Stormzy will get a #1 debut single upon his return. that happened
If Adele returns her comeback single will break UK streaming records. no Adele return
Little Mix will announce their hiatus following a LM5 repackage in Q4. no hiatus announcement or album repackage
Calvin Harris has another big #1 single. #2
Dua Lipa returns with a #1. #2
Justin Bieber has a big comeback with two #1 singles. no JB comeback aside from some features
Taylor Swift goes back to her country roots which results in her comeback missing #1, but it is still a reasonably sized hit and has more longevity than 'Look What You Made Me Do'. her comeback missed #1, but had slightly less longevity, and it wasn't country
Drake releases a 'mixtape'/ 'playlist' which gives him a few top 10s but he is held off #1 by another big release. no album from Drake, and his one random release of the year didn't make top 10
The Greatest Showman soundtrack refuses to ever leave the top 10. it finally did!
The Weeknd, Bruno Mars and Kendrick Lamar all have big eras. Weeknd only starting new era, other 2 haven't released
Billie Eilish gets bigger and she gets a very big hit. Bad Guy provides her with said very big hit

As for ex-1D members;
Harry Styles' comeback single will briefly make the top 20 on hype but it won't be Spotify friendly and won't last long. Album makes the top five but doesn't have much staying power. Harry does even better this time around than in his first era despite lack of a #1 hit
Niall gets a big radio hit and the single spends a few weeks in the top 20. Album comes shortly after and makes top five. Subsequent singles underperform. comeback single missed top 20
Liam's album eventually comes out and bombs, spending one week top 40. He gets one or two more top 40s from collaborations. no more top 40s and album is a flop
Zayn gets dropped following his album bombing and doesn't release anything of his own. He features on a soundtrack single or dance track that flops. featured on Aladdin soundtrack and was on a dance track with R3hab that went nowhere
Louis continues to not release any music. new music happened but made little impact
Reunion does not happen until 2020, when they (but probably not all five) will do a reunion tour/greatest hits album to mark ten years since their formation. no reunion yet


QUOTE(danuary @ Jan 7 2019, 10:10 PM) *
Don't get why people seem to think Cardi B is going to underperform this year.
She's got a new song coming out with Bruno Mars and someone else soon which will no doubt be a big top 10 hit.
Just because 'Money' isn't doing too well doesn't mean she won't get more big hits. Bruno collab missed top 10 and she didn't have as big of a year as 2018, oops!

Checking some more predictions from others though:

QUOTE(WhoOdyssey @ Nov 16 2018, 05:58 PM) *
I predict The 1975 will have their first UK top 10 with their next album (and it might be a collab).


They collaborated with the devil to make 'People' and it thankfully missed the top 10 and indeed top 40.

QUOTE(dobbo @ Nov 16 2018, 06:35 PM) *
Bicep will get their first top 40.


I wish.

QUOTE(Suedehead2 @ Nov 16 2018, 08:42 PM) *
Ten Tonnes (George Ezra's brother) will have a hit single and album.


Didn't happen but the somewhat similarly named Tones And I did rise from the gutter, I blame this prediction.

QUOTE(JosephAvery @ Nov 27 2018, 04:51 PM) *
Providing this is pushed, I can see this being huge in the new year:



Joseph wins this thread.

QUOTE(cantthinkofaname @ Dec 1 2018, 01:20 PM) *
Yes Aladdin and especially The Lion King are bound to do some damage to the charts. Wouldn't be surprised to see either Can You Feel The Love or Circle Of Life top the chart even given the huge nostalgia factor (as well as the names involved).


Combined 0 top 40 hits from these two soundtracks.

QUOTE(CodySleighBell-y @ Dec 24 2018, 05:36 PM) *
iI can see Ava doing a Mike Posner rather than a Julia Michaels: one huge hit (SBP), one minor follow-up hit and then nothing else onwards. Sweet But Psycho would set Ava up well but I don’t think her follow-up would have the same momentum.


Pretty much bang on.

QUOTE(Petivity @ Dec 26 2018, 05:12 PM) *
- Lewis Capaldi will get one Top 10 hit, another long-running Top 40 hit then never be heard of again


Hahahahahahahaha

QUOTE(WhoOdyssey @ Jan 4 2019, 07:27 PM) *
I think Yungblud could have a hit, he blends rock, pop and hip-hop very well and he hasn't been around long and already has a big fanbase.
He's also dating Halsey, so hopefully they collab tongue.gif



Thank the lord this hasn't happened yet. Also he and Halsey split up (presumably when Halsey realised how intolerable he is), but they did collaborate before that and thankfully still didn't get a big hit from it.

QUOTE(MÿrtleSnow @ Jan 5 2019, 08:38 PM) *
Nicki will have a pretty bad 2019 and may take a hiatus +/ social media blackout.


Jupiter predicted ha retirement!

Coldplay definitely won't be back next year - their manager said recently it would be 2020 at the earliest wink.gif

interestingly enough the closest thing Zayn has to a hit this year was Trampoline and that’s mainly due to SHAED gaining traction rather than his name power

Little Mix will split. They are terrified of releasing a 2nd single. This smacks of late Spice Girls


I was so close!! No second single. They'll split next year.

Let's stick a load of predictions down in the hope that some will stick:

- Lewis Capaldi will get one Top 10 hit, another long-running Top 40 hit then never be heard of again
- The 1975 'It's Not Living (If It's Not With You) will give them their first Top 10 hit
- Rag'n'Bone man will make a grand return and get a low Top 40 out of it.
- There will be a point this year in which Drake plays some part in 6 songs all in the Top 100
- In the summer the OCC will do a complete rehaul of the charts and introduce the 10:1 ratio and 10 song cap a bunch of us have been banging on about for ages. ACR will go although not before a song falls from #1 to outside the Top 15 because of it.
- Post Malone's 'Sunflower' will avoid ACR like the plague
- Musicals will continue to do well and clog up the charts
- We'll never hear of Dalton Harris again

Well barring the last one all of these were way off the mark, especially Lewis Capaldi oops blush.gif

It was only as a featured artist of course, but Giant was a pretty big comeback for Rag'n'Bone Man this year.
And Sunflower being reset to SCR and re-entering the chart after Post Malone's album was released could potentially count as 'avoiding ACR like the plague' at a stretch biggrin.gif

I think in my mind Sunflower was going to have a Girls Like You-style run when in reality it hit ACR a few weeks after its peak.
