January 4, 20197 yr If The Greatest Show had been reset, it would have been #6 :o :oso is this another Ocean scenario or is this just a special case
January 4, 20197 yr so is this another Ocean scenario or is this just a special case It is an Ocean scenario but considering so much of the chart is on ACR right now, it's quite a distorted field!
January 7, 20197 yr Amazing that US rapper Russ has never had a top 100 entry and meanwhile a relatively obscure UK rapper with the same name has entered the top 40. Another L for Russ... This was basically my exact thought process when I first saw 'Gun Lean' making waves in the chart haha. I wondered how Russ was suddenly getting a UK hit only to look it up and of course it's not even him. I've never heard anything by (American) Russ, only know him via Reddit ruthlessly taking the piss out of his every move :lol: I've never understood the strong reactions to Ring Ring against Jax's other stuff. I prefer the three preceding singles but Ring Ring was good too! I like Play a lot also, Jax just keeps delivering the bops. I posit that it may have something to do with the 'featuring Rich The Kid' part :P (I agree with you though, I don't quite get why that one gets so much worse reviews on here than the rest of his discog). ~ A little disappointed that R1 didn't play 'Gun Lean', it's a bop. Hope it sticks around and gets a play in the future. On the other hand pleasantly surprised they actually played 'Mo Bamba' again (to the same rapturous applause on BuzzJack as ever - I wonder if these people who have presumably only heard it on the chart show would find it better or worse in uncensored form? :D) and it was great to hear 'SICKO MODE' again too! Plus 'Going Bad' has really grown on me after initially finding it mediocre so yay for that being played too. And I really quite like 'Money', think it's had a bit of a bad rap on here. That's it for this week's edition of me popping into the thread days later to defend all the hip-hop songs. Some of these chart runs are absolutely hilarious. 'Woman Like Me' was my fave I think :D Great to see a few good songs coming straight back at new peaks ('Hold My Girl' and 'Baby' hopefully still future top 10s?) and of course 'Baby Shark' hunting down all non top 5 faves *.* and finally yasss at Posty getting top 3 with 'Sunflower' and hanging onto top 5 with 'Wow.', gonna need the latter to now peak at #2 tbh (or them to climb to peaks of #2 and #3 respectively) so he has one each of #1 to #6 peaks with his 6 top 10 hits *.
January 7, 20197 yr I posit that it may have something to do with the 'featuring Rich The Kid' part :P (I agree with you though, I don't quite get why that one gets so much worse reviews on here than the rest of his discog).I'd say Rich The Kid's part is too minimal to make a difference either way. For me it's that the song doesn't suit Mabel's vocals at all, actually makes her sound quite bad, and I don't find the production to be to Jax's usual standard either. But of course I can't speak for everyone else.
January 7, 20197 yr 'Ring Ring' is basically substandard Spotify pandering crap. That's the reason why I dislike it so, that and it's also immensely grating. I suppose also because we only get one single from him every 6 months, I want at least one artist to rely on to bring the bangers. That's what makes him stand out from all the other stuff in the charts usually. Edited January 7, 20197 yr by Tawdry Hepburn

I agree, I'm just being cynical. x I quite like 'Ring Ring', it does fall into the Spotify pandering bin but I'd say that applies to all of his other hits as well apart from 'Breathe'. People make Jax out to be a more interesting artist than he is.
