That link does not work unless I'm missing something. :unsure:

 

He posted the link on his twitter :)

Monster is gonna be huge, Rihanna has that hook and chorus down as usual. I'd love it if Rihanna convinced Eminem to do the X factor for it.

Icona Pop getting a shock second week in the top 40.

Urgh. I hate 1D, the sooner they break up the better

36. Change Your Life (feat. T.I.) - Iggy Azalea

 

This should have been a huge hit :(

After just one listen, "The Monster" is sounding absolutely incredible. If "Rap God" could hit iTunes #1, this should have no problem. Hope he releases it as a single like the last three, the sooner it charts the better.

 

Re: X-Factor, I'd say Eminem was the least likely person to ever appear on there. He has no need surely, people support his material regardless.

6. Children of the Sun (feat. John Martin) - Tinie Tempah

This is still gaining quite quickly, if it continues that tomorrow it should be able to get to #3/4 on iTunes. Won't hold my breath for that though.

 

(Well that'll be #4/5 as Eminem will almost certainly be going straight to at least #2).

I don't think Eminem needs it, I just think it could be amazing. Also Rihanna appears every year and if she agrees to appear with him it might be something special.

'Monster' is brilliant on first listen! Assuming he's releasing it as a proper single, I reckon it will be a close battle for #1 between him and 1D. Another exciting chart week then :)

There is no chance 1D won't be #1 this week. The Monster is excellent, but doubt it will be able to sell 100k in 5 days.

My sentiments exactly.

I don't know, Rihanna released we found love on a Wednesday and it still managed to block 1D from #1 I seem to remember.

Yeah Rihanna has that power in the UK she Beat them to #1 in the albums chart with Talk That Talk I believe as well :) Is the UK Rihanna's biggest fanbase? Like all her albums/singles seem to do pretty well over here and her sales are HUGE!

Glad to see 1D above 'Royals' - MUCH better song :cheer:

Actually that was when 'Moves Like Jagger' was infamously blocked from #1 the week it looked like they might finally get it.

Glad to see 1D above 'Royals' - MUCH better song :cheer:

 

 

One of these acts produces meaningful, beautiful music.

 

The other releases any old manufactured pop fluff that Simon Cowell can get his hands on as he knows it will sell under their brand regardless.

 

Lorde is an actual artist and doesn't need the charts to validate that, unlike the other.

:lol:

 

Glad 1D are #1, really like their single.

 

I hope Leona's single gets put up for pre-order soon, I need something to track (even if it is on the pop chart :lol: )

Think Story of My Life has too much wide appeal. They're arguably the biggest act in the world right now. Can't see them being beaten this time around.
