A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie feat. 6ix9ine - Swervin

16 weeks top 40 and no play!

Might be wrong on this but I think the only 6ix9ine top 40 hit to get a play was FEFE, but I know GOOBA got a short snippet on both of its top 10 weeks.

I would guess this is the record! (at least for after the period where they only played the top 25.) I want to say XXXTentacion didn't get any of his songs played either? Not 100% sure as I only started listening to the show halfway through 2022

I think a few XXXTENTACION songs got played - Falling Down definitely did, and True Love (with Kanye West, from 2022). Can't remember if Arms Around You got played but I'm quite sure the rest didn't, SAD! got a Newsbeat snippet when it went top 5 to explain his death.

The Jackson 5 - Santa Claus Is Coming to Town (3 weeks)

^ I think this one hasn't had a chart play, the chart is normally replaced by the EOY countdown on the week it's finally managed to make it in!

There's bound to be one or two D-Block Europe ones but I can't remember which ones were played and which ones weren't, until I started scrobbling the chart show to my last.fm account a few years back! Elegant & Gang (7 weeks) didn't get played seemingly.

Digga D - Chingy (It's Whatever) (5 weeks) - possibly one or two of his other songs, Toxic springs to mind as a possibility

Eminem - Killshot (3 weeks) - I think anyway!

Juice WRLD - Wishing Well (9 weeks) - but I can't remember if this ended up getting a stray play one week?

Lil Mabu - MATHEMATICAL DISRESPECT (2 weeks)
Taylor Swift - the 1 (2 weeks) - the chart didn't air when it debuted at #10 and I'm not sure it got played the week after

A few that came to mind from 2015-2016 that missed out on a play during the "top 25" era due to peaking between #26 and #40:

Charlie Puth - One Call Away (11 weeks)

Fifth Harmony feat. Fetty Wap - All In My Head (Flex) (7 weeks) *

Fifth Harmony - That's My Girl (7 weeks)

Shaggy feat. Mohombi, Faydee & Costi - I Need Your Love (2 weeks)

Cheat Codes & Dante Klein - Let Me Hold You (Turn Me On) (7 weeks)

*peaked at #25 but the chart was cut short to a top 20 due to the summer mix that continued until 4:15...!

KIKA also got a snippet in its sole week top 10.

Another one I remembered is YNW Melly - Murder on my mind (8 weeks)

I replied to you about this on Discord but for posterity - fairly sure both 'Arms Around You' and 'Don't Cry' got at least one play on the chart show too.

Noah Kahan's Doors added assuming they don't play it on Friday. Also the two Ye tracks that charted!

The fact 6ix9ine was allowed to even briefly become a thing is a seriously dark indictment on humanity.

Ding Dong the witch is dead was skipped when it charted following a viral campaign in the aftermath of Margaret Thatcher’s death. I think a short news report was played instead explaining why it was being skipped.

Some more from the Top 25 era:

• Matoma & Becky Hill - False Alarm (6 weeks)

• Offaiah - Trouble (4 weeks)

• Kideko et al - Crank It (3 weeks)

I also remember the massive sigh of relief when Tilted by Christine & The Queens got to #20 during that period when they were only playing the Top 20 and thus received its sole chart play

All 3 are absolute BOPS

Don't remember the Kideko song at all but it's apparently on one of my playlists so must have liked it at the time. Trouble is a stunner though one of the best dance hits of that era.
