Lewis Capaldi still sending people to sleep with his dull music. :zzz:

If this is the chart success he gets from being an apparent cure for insomnia then I think he'll be delighted :magic:

I'm also in Anglesey and I can confirm it is torrential rain ;)

I hope you've visited Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. It was the cause of much amusement with my students last week.

Biography

 

Birmingham-based grime MC Mist rose out of the mid-2010s grime resurgence, proving that you don't have to be from London to be taken seriously in U.K. rap circles. Mist, like most grime artists, started out by dropping numerous mixtapes and freestyles, which very quickly started racking up millions of views online. Although Mist's lyrics contained well-worn tropes concerning making money and life on the streets, he also delivered very honest bars about the loss of his parents and how his life changed as a result. During his early career, Mist collaborated with fellow Birmingham resident and producer Shadow, who would create languid yet melodic beats for Mist to navigate. In 2016, Mist really began to break through; early in the year he stepped up to Fire in the Booth, a renowned feature on Charlie Sloth's BBC Radio 1Xtra show. The end of the year saw the release of the M I S to the T EP, which featured two standout singles "Karlas Back" and "Ain't the Same." 2017 found Mist embarking on a U.K.-wide tour, including stops at Koko, London, and Manchester O2 Ritz. - iTunes

I will never get over songs like this flying into the Top 10 with ease whilst great pop songs in 'Find U Again', 'Never Really Over', 'Mother's Daughter' and many others failed :(.

Fredo has got to be the most miserable artist in UK rap, the guy never smiles :lol:

 

 

The female voice in the chorus does make me laugh :lol: , definitely not one of the best UK rap tracks out there.

Biography

 

Samuel Frederick Smith (born 19 May 1992) is an English singer-songwriter. He rose to fame in October 2012 when he was featured on Disclosure's breakthrough single "Latch", which peaked at number eleven on the UK Singles Chart. His subsequent feature—on Naughty Boy's "La La La"—earned him his first number one single in May 2013. In December 2013, he was nominated for the 2014 Brit Critics' Choice Award and the BBC's Sound of 2014 poll, both of which he won.

 

He released his debut studio album, In the Lonely Hour, in May 2014 on Capitol Records UK. The lead single, "Lay Me Down", was released prior to "La La La". The second single, "Money on My Mind", became his second number one single in the UK. The album's third single, "Stay with Me", was an international success, reaching number one in the UK and number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, while the fourth single "I'm Not the Only One" reached the top five in both countries. The fifth single, "Like I Can", reached number nine in the United Kingdom. He made his United States debut on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, followed by a performance on Saturday Night Live in March 2014.

 

In December 2014, Smith was nominated for six Grammy Awards, and at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards in February 2015 he won four: Best New Artist, "Stay with Me" for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, and In the Lonely Hour for Best Pop Vocal Album. At the 2015 Brit Awards, he won the awards for British Breakthrough Act and Global Success. At the 2015 Billboard Music Awards, Smith received three Billboard Awards: Top Male Artist, Top New Artist, and Top Radio Songs Artist. His musical achievements have also led him to be mentioned twice in the Guinness World Records.

 

For his and Jimmy Napes' song "Writing's on the Wall", the theme for the James Bond film Spectre (2015), Smith won the Golden Globe Award and the Academy Award for Best Original Song. His second studio album, The Thrill of It All, was released in November 2017, and debuted atop the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200. The lead single, "Too Good at Goodbyes", reached number one in the UK and Australia and number four in the US. - Wikipedia

I disagree, it's one of the best around right now!

 

Yog will be thrilled Sam is finally top 10. I'm pleased too, this song is too good to miss out!

Sam Smith finally makes it into the top ten! I can think of a certain poster who will be very relieved right now.

11th top 10 hit for Sam Smith, lets hope he makes it a 8th number 1, yes EIGTH!

I will never get over songs like this flying into the Top 10 with ease whilst great pop songs in 'Find U Again', 'Never Really Over', 'Mother's Daughter' and many others failed :(.

Sign of the times now, the chart is mainly catered towards people who stream UK urban songs nowadays. Those songs that you mentioned probably would have been shoo ins for the top 10 in the sales climate.

So High is getting better with each listen for me.

 

Like the Sam track too but the video is horrific.

Biography

 

West London grime MC Che Wolton Grant (aka AJ Tracey) rose through the ranks of pirate radio, becoming one of the leading figures in U.K. grime's second generation of artists. Grant knew from a young age that he wanted to pursue a career in music, due in part to his parents; not only was his dad a former rapper from Trinidad & Tobago, his mother was a former drum'n'bass DJ from Wales. By age six, Grant had started writing rhymes, coinciding with the first great boom in grime. Although the genre temporarily lost its way, Grant soldiered on, unwilling to give up on his passion for grime. By the time he had reached his early twenties, grime had started another upswing. During this time Grant became proactive in his pursuit of radio spots, working his way up through pirate radio before scoring appearances on Rinse.DM, NTS, and eventually even BBC Radio One. With his reputation in the world of radio firmly cemented, Grant released a string of EPs, beginning with The Front EP in July 2015, followed by the Alex Moran EP later the same year. In 2016, he further solidified his status as an emerging talent, with a combination of solid collaborations, more radio appearances, and the release of the Lil Tracey EP. The end of 2016 culminated with Grant's nomination on BBC's Sound of 2017. - iTunes

Find You Again was Post Album was it not? So it may have struggled a bit more but yes urban is huge in terms of streaming.

AJ Tracey still sounding good! B-)

Whitney top 5! :wub:

Interested to see if Higher Love is 4 or 5?!

hoorah! Sam's best track since the Disclosure/Naughty Boy collabs

 

He hates everyone because the public think he's gay after some incident on Instagram Live...

Even before that incident he was still always unhappy. When you see videos and interviews that he did a few years ago he still always looked grumpy then as well.
