September 20, 200916 yr 15 Jay-Z feat. Alicia Keys - Empire State Of Mind [D] http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/JAYZBLUEPRINT.JPG Chart Run: 15 [1 wk] Format: download only track Considered one of the best lyricists to emerge in the wake of the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac's deaths, Jay-Z has since carried the flag of hip-hop narrative skill. His Roc-A-Fella family had already created a solid reputation based on Jay-Z's 1997 debut. As his fame has grown, so has his tendency to bring more R&B production elements into his work, creating a club-friendly, danceable version of east coast gangsta hip-hop that hasn't diminished his reputation as a preeminent force in rap. Perhaps even more importantly, Jay-Z has become a powerful music impresario. In his role as president/CEO of Def Jam in the early 2000s, he fostered the careers of popular R&B singers Rihanna and Ne-Yo, and enjoyed a high profile as a co-owner of the New Jersey Nets basketball team. His long relationship and eventual marriage to superstar Beyonce has further endeared him to fans - HMV Video here: Chart history (Year peak title): Jay-Z 1997 30 Can't Knock The Hustle (Jay-Z Feat.

September 20, 200916 yr 14 Paramore - Ignorance [P] http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/AT0347CD.JPG Chart Run: 14 [1 wk] Release date: 14-09-2009 Format: CDS Number of Discs: 1 Catalogue Number: AT0347CD Label: FUELEDBYRAMEN A solid, smart pop-punk band from Tennessee, Paramore has garnered positive attention from both the music press (here and overseas) and audiences, much of it centred around the band's charming, down-to-earth frontwoman Hayley Williams, who was only 17 years old when the band released their first album. Their music is effortlessly catchy, with emo undertones leavened by a sense of humour and the punky crunch of electric guitars. In the two years between their 2005 debut and its follow-up, the band had grown musically, and its audiences have grown with it. - HMV Video here: Chart history (Year peak title): 2007 31 Misery Business 2007 61 CrushCrushCrush 2008 17 Misery Business (2008 Re-issue) 2008 55 That's What You Get 2008 52 Decode 2009 14 Ignorance The first hit from Paramore to hit the UK top 40 this is not called "Misery Business", My guess that Paramore is supposed to be a big release this fall so let's see what happens.
September 20, 200916 yr 3 Madonna - Celebration [P] http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/W819CD2.JPG Chart Run: 3 [1 wk] Release date: 14-09-2009 Format: CDS Number of Discs: 1 Catalogue Number: W819CD2 Label: WARNERBROS Madonna is arguably the most popular female pop singer in musical history. Although she began her career in the late 1970s as a dancer and as drummer for new wave group the Breakfast Club, Madonna has touched upon many different styles throughout her trend-setting career, and has acted in numerous movies as well. Although her image has shifted to include looks as disparate as raunchy temptress and new age mother, the Material Girl has always maintained a fierce business sense and a remarkable knack for controversy. Few other artists--male or female--have had the phenomenal mass adulation or the staying power of this pop culture icon. - HMV Video here: track listing 1. Celebration 2.

Hailed as 'the new Babyface', the precocious Londoner earnt songwriting credits for Usher, Mya and Britney, and worked with Jazze Pha and Rich Harrison before his first release. On his debut album DEPARTURE (2008), Cruz inevitably shone in every department. From sweet and smooth vocals to the crisp and slick beats, DEPARTURE boasted individuality and style, and included the UK top five hit single "Come On Girl", a duet with Luciana. - HMV Video here: Chart history (Year peak title): 2006 29 I Just Wanna Know 2007 26 Moving On 2008 05 Come On Girl 2008 18 I Can Be 2008 20 She's Like A Star 2009 03 Take Me Back (Tinchy Stryder Feat.
