He grew up in the South Bronx, where the tradition of hustlers-turned-rappers is less a myth than an everyday reality. Born in 2001, though, Tjay was also deeply obsessed with the culture of the internet; his two favourite artists are Justin Bieber and Lil Wayne. This duality is his greatest strength. The MC, born Tione Jayden Merritt, isn’t afraid to rap about both sides of his childhood. “I was just an innocent kid, but I still had that street view,” he explained to Apple Music. “I had that balance. I just rap about things that I’ve been through.” His first hit, 2018’s “Resume,” was a SoundCloud sensation, released when Tjay was just a teen. He credits his sharpened pen to his stint in prison on robbery charges a year earlier. On the track, he touches on the fragility of his success when he raps, “I bug out on all instrumentals/It might be my time, but I can't go.” As his career progressed, though, he became more comfortable with his fame and supplemented his melodic flow and infectious, unforgettable bars with talk of designer clothes and foreign cars. His biggest hits, like “F.N” from 2019’s True 2 Myself, move from lamenting his past to celebrating the present. “Cartier glasses, 20/20, got a clear view/You a man, I don't fear you/Act up, we gon' mask up, boy, I dare you,” he raps. Lil Tjay is honest in discussing his path because he knows it’s what makes him him. “All my songs are relatable to my story,” he told Apple Music. “I just hope they’re relatable to my fans, too.” - Apple Music 6LACK In his Up Next interview for Apple Music, 6LACK remembered the night he pulled up next to a car and heard the driver playing his music. Not talking. Not on her phone. Just nodding her head, chilling, connecting. He’d had some lean years—at one point, he’d thought about scavenging food from the trash. So to get a glimmer that all of his work had been worth it? That a quiet kid from East Atlanta who felt like music was his only mode of expression was getting heard? Even he had to admit that was pretty cool. “One of those moments where it’s just, like, ‘OK, that’s kind of dope.’” Born Ricardo Valentine, Jr., in 1992, 6LACK—pronounced “black”, but a reference to the police precinct covering East Atlanta—started battle-rapping as a kid. As he developed, his sound got softer but also more focused, splitting the difference between the muscle of trap and the minimal side of modern R&B. Like Drake or The Weeknd, he can be cold. But his best tracks—“Unfair”, “Nonchalant”, “Outside”—mix that coldness with a sense of modesty and self-reflection that make him relatable even when he’s being a little unlikeable. Or, as he puts it on “Sorry”, “I’ma write when I’m wrong.” Yet however painful his experiences have been, turning them into art makes them worth it. “In, like, 25 years when I’m 50 and wrinkly as s**t,” he says, “I’ll know this was my favourite part.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Lil Tjay 2019 81 Slide (French Montana feat.

February 26, 20215 yr 01 | 01 | 7th week Olivia Rodrigo drivers license 1st single from forthcoming EP Released: 8th January 2021 Label: Olivia Rodrigo Chart Statistics NE (21/01/2021) | 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Sales: 400k+ Certification: Gold Status: Standard Chart Ratio 01 Sales 01 Audio Streaming 01 Video Streaming Video ZmDBbnmKpqQ Biography Hi!!! My name is Olivia!! I'm a songwriter, an actress, and a huge Swiftie. Writing music is my favorite thing in the whole world. I've been doing it ever since I can remember. My parents have old VHS videos of me making up ridiculous songs when I was too young to even know how to write words. I've always loved telling stories and songwriting is the perfect medium to tell them in a really vulnerable, personal way. You might have heard my song “All I Want” that I wrote for Highschool Musical the Musical the Series, which is a show I also get to act in. I wrote that song in my living room during finals week of sophomore year. I was truly just so grateful the producers of the show let me have any part in making the music, I didn't think about anyone hearing it let alone liking it. The outpouring of support the song got was insane. I know people write songs to make their listeners feel less alone but reading everyone's stories and reactions to the song actually made ME feel so seen. It was an experience I wouldn't trade for the world. The song has opened up so many doors for me and as I'm writing this, I am putting the finishing touches on my first EP. Figuring out what I want my own music to sound like has been hella challenging but so much fun. I still write songs in my bedroom almost every day too. I learn more about myself and songwriting every day, and I think that's so fun. I feel really lucky. I'm so stoked for the future and I feel so grateful that I get to make music. - Spotify Top 100 Chart History 2020 32 All I Want -OST- 2021 01 drivers license -1- 1 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 2 x Top 40 | 2 x Top 100 Social Media Olivia Rodrigo http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png

February 26, 20215 yr Next week's contender? Joel Corry, RAYE and David Guetta BED Non-album single Released: 26th February 2021 Label: Perfect Havoc Video 8mOPFGfJ5WQ Biography Joel Corry “Back Again” might seem like a strange title for a debut single, but not for Joel Corry: When the British DJ/producer dropped his first record in 2015, he was already well known to UK audiences from his appearances on the MTV reality show Geordie Shore. While that program captured its cast members’ romantic misadventures with tongue firmly in cheek, Corry has treated his musical career with far more seriousness, faithfully updating the sounds of classic house with a sleek contemporary touch. Born in London in 1989, Corry was just a boy when the slinky sounds of UK garage catapulted underground dance music into British pop around the turn of the millennium, but he brings the same crossover spirit to his own productions. While 2015’s “Back Again” and “Light It Up” flirted with big-room EDM, Corry looked to the past for his breakout hit, a 2019 cover of Monsta Boy’s 2000 UK garage classic “Sorry” that paired soulful vocals with crisp, jittery drum programming. He’s pursued a similar approach on subsequent singles like “Lonely” and “Head & Heart”, updating the piano chords and organ stabs of ’90s dance pop with 21st-century production values. While Corry’s timeless hooks are perfect for radio, he’s careful to always have something special for the dance floor. As he told Apple Music: “With all my records I like to do my own VIP mix”—that is, a club-ready version that’s a little tougher and heavier. With reality TV in the rearview, these days Corry’s simply keeping it real. - Apple Music RAYE Croydon, South London-based R&B singer Rachel Keen (aka RAYE) started her career at the age of ten, guided by her father and her guitar teacher. Her interest in music quickly led to small charity gigs and bouts of singing at her local church. By 2012, RAYE had enrolled in the prestigious BRIT school for music and singing, spending two years perfecting her craft, but she left in 2014 due to the limitations she was being taught and the desire to create her own rules. The following year, RAYE released her debut EP, Welcome to the Winter. The lead single, "Hotbox," was noticed by Olly Alexander (Years & Years) on Hype Machine; he got in touch with RAYE to discuss music, and arranged a meeting with the A&R department at Polydor. With major-label backing, RAYE kept busy in 2016, including co-writing her single "I, U, US" alongside Charli XCX, appearing as a guest vocalist on Jonas Blue's "By Your Side" single, and releasing the SECOND EP. She was back working with Charli XCX the following year, guesting on the singer's tracks "Girls" and "Dreamer." RAYE also delivered her own single, "The Line." The singles "Check" (with Kojo Funds) and "Cigarette" (with Mabel and Stefflon Don) were released in 2018. The following year saw RAYE issue the emotionally charged single "Love Me Again." - Apple Music David Guetta From his early days playing Chicago house in French discotheques to his long reign atop the pop charts, David Guetta has revolutionised dance music multiple times. Born in Paris in 1967, Guetta began DJing in the late ’80s, when the shimmery sound known as the “French touch” was taking shape. By the early 2000s, at his F*** Me I’m Famous parties in Ibiza, he had translated that melodic style into a clever merger of pop sass and club swagger. He parlayed that mix into pure platinum with hits like 2003’s “Just for One Day”, an energy-stoking rework of David Bowie’s “Heroes”, and 2002’s “Just a Little More Love”, a sultry bump-and-grind featuring R&B singer Chris Willis. That versatility—along with a knack for killer hooks—would become one of Guetta’s principal calling cards, and as EDM exploded across pop culture at the end of the 2000s, Guetta’s shapeshifting style led the way, yielding ecstatic affirmations (“When Love Takes Over”), feisty come-ons (“Sexy Bitch”) and unstoppable singalongs (The Black Eyed Peas’ “I Gotta Feeling”, which Guetta produced). Since then, his collaborations (Sia, Nicki Minaj) have kept listeners guessing even as his choruses—triumphant as a bottle of bubbly blowing its top—have proven one of pop’s most dependable pleasures. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Joel Corry 2019 06 Sorry -NAS- 2020 04 Lonely -NAS- 2020 01 Head & Heart (feat.

February 26, 20215 yr Next week's contender? Pop Smoke AP Soundtrack single from Boogie Released: 26th February 2021 Label: Victor Victor Video Xp_UAqf3gZI Biography When his life was cut short in the early hours of February 19, 2020, Brooklyn rapper Pop Smoke was, at the age of 20, more famous than he’d ever been, yet nowhere close to where he was likely to end up. He exploded onto the scene in 2019 with “Welcome to the Party,” a song that somehow plays as enticing as it is menacing, exemplifying Brooklyn’s rising drill music scene at its sharpest. His voice across it—gruff and road-worn beyond his age—carries the delivery of a supervillain, daring his adversaries to try and stop the mayhem he has planned for the city. Pop Smoke was from the far-flung Canarsie neighborhood, and his verses radiate a singular kind of Real Brooklyn energy. (A great deal of his "Welcome to the Party” video takes place in front of the long-standing jerk chicken staple Peppa’s.) His slang (“sturdy,” “dap me up”) was largely New York City-centric, which helped songs like “War,” “Christopher Walking,” and “Dior” reverberate quickly through, and beyond, the five boroughs. Fans worldwide got indoctrinated upon accepting his 2019 debut project’s invitation to Meet the Woo; a sequel, Meet the Woo 2, was released just weeks before his death. Pop Smoke worked well with the stars of his city, nabbing collaborations with Nicki Minaj, Bronx heartthrob A Boogie wit da Hoodie, and fellow ascending voices Lil Tjay and Fivio Foreign. He’d even have no problem setting his own tone on his Travis Scott collaboration “GATTI,” from the JACKBOYS project. Canarsie had Pop Smoke famously calling friends and associates his “woos,” but his enemies mostly went nameless, barely worth mentioning. As fast as things were moving for him, he couldn’t have had a second of spare time to give to anyone who didn’t believe. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2020 59 GATTI (JACKBOYS, Pop Smoke & Travis Scott) 2020 76 Shake The Room (feat.

February 26, 20215 yr Oh gosh, heck no, I love the remix. The original is drab and dull I just think the remix sounds like alot of other dance songs already in the chart.
February 26, 20215 yr drivers license has been at #1 for too long now. Do you guys agree with me? Definitely but at least it is better than what is at #2 :lol:
February 26, 20215 yr drivers license has been at #1 for too long now. Do you guys agree with me? Nope, I still think it's better than any of the songs that have been at #2 during its run!
February 26, 20215 yr JLS have finished at number 57! :D :D :D (Fortunately the OCC have at least given them a separate artist page)
