February 12, 20215 yr Author New Dua could have been B- or even A-listed tbh but great to see it on there anyway, love the song already! Good to see Ava moving up to the B-list quickly although I'm still not convinced they'll A-list it. Still no Clean Bandit but I'm pretty confident they'll add it next week. Looks like the C-list has been permanently shortened to 11 songs now :unsure: What's the point of them keeping both Ari songs on there? Do they actually still play the solo version?
February 12, 20215 yr Looks like 'Wellerman' isn't climbing up then :lol: Great to see Rag 'N' Bone Man added
February 12, 20215 yr Another good week for songs moving into the B list - Ava, Griff and Obskur are all fantastic. Surprised that Dua and Cardi are only on the C list, and I'm actually enjoying the new Silk City one. I've been loving the BBC Introducing track for a long time now, and whilst it does seem very late to be adding it (it came out in November 2020), I'm just happy it's getting more exposure.
February 12, 20215 yr Interested to see if that Silk City one can pick up, I don't particularly like the track though.
February 12, 20215 yr Anyone know what the Tune of the Weekend is? I don’t think I’ve ever heard it or the artist and I haven’t heard Radio 1 play it at all before.
February 12, 20215 yr Anyone know what the Tune of the Weekend is? I don’t think I’ve ever heard it or the artist and I haven’t heard Radio 1 play it at all before. It's a dance tune (and quite a good one!), hovering around the #500 mark on Apple Music atm
February 12, 20215 yr Liking nearly all of the new adds today. Nice to see Tom Grennan, Silk City and Rag'N'Bone Man at last. There is still a lot that they could have added that they haven't - I think it's probably too late for Kings of Leon now unfortunately, especially as they have moved onto their next single. Also good to see Riton, Okskur and Doja Cat all moving up to the B List and nice to see an unexpected A List move up for Slowthai. I might be wrong but isn't this his first time on the A List? Good to see Radio 1 giving him lots of support anyway.

Good to see Radio 1 giving him lots of support anyway. Almost a year on when we debated whether Radio 1 would ever support him again after the NME incident!
February 12, 20215 yr I’m surprised there’s no sign of Kings of Leon. Wasn’t it Arielle’s Tune of the Week a couple of weeks ago?
February 12, 20215 yr don't get how Foo Fighters are on both R1 and R2 but Kings of Leon is on none :/ I can understand the R1 snub as they're not a new band anymore, but at leats they should be getting R2 support
February 12, 20215 yr Author Also good to see Riton, Okskur and Doja Cat all moving up to the B List and nice to see an unexpected A List move up for Slowthai. I might be wrong but isn't this his first time on the A List? Good to see Radio 1 giving him lots of support anyway. He was A-listed in 2019 as featuring artist on Mura Masa's 'Deal Wiv It' but yeah it's his first A-list appearance as primary artist. don't get how Foo Fighters are on both R1 and R2 but Kings of Leon is on none :/ I can understand the R1 snub as they're not a new band anymore, but at leats they should be getting R2 support Yeah I have to agree, it is very odd that KoL are neither on R1 nor R2.
February 12, 20215 yr Almost a year on when we debated whether Radio 1 would ever support him again after the NME incident! I completely forgot about that, everyone seemed to move on from it pretty quickly and I’m glad he didn’t get ‘cancelled’ because of that!
February 14, 20215 yr I’ve only just noticed this but Headie One - Siberia is also on the bbc sounds playlist with everything that they’ve added this week. So maybe that’s taking the 12th slot on the C List this week?
February 14, 20215 yr Author If it is then whoever's been updating the playlist recently needs their job evaluating, there's been so many mistakes!
