October 1, 20215 yr This is deservedly in the top 10 but could it not have taken off last year when I first enjoyed it?!
October 1, 20215 yr 07 | 03 | 10th week Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow INDUSTRY BABY 2nd single from MONTERO Released: 23rd July 2021 Label: Columbia Records Chart Statistics NE (05/08/2021) | 13-11-11-7-7-5-8-9-3-7 Sales: 200k+ Certification: Silver Status: Standard Chart Ratio 25 Sales 04 Audio Streaming 08 Video Streaming Video UTHLKHL_whs Biography Lil Nas X The way Lil Nas X tells it, it sounds simple, almost mystical. “I was just kinda bored,” he told Apple Music. “I wanted to put something up. So that’s what I did.” Not only did the “it” in question—“Old Town Road”—become a global phenomenon (and 2019 Apple Music Award winner for Song of the Year), it prompted surprisingly pertinent conversations about how we define and classify music. Was it country? Was it rap? Cowboy anthem or LGBTQ camp? TikTok novelty or legitimate pop song? It was, of course, all those things, and pity those who couldn’t live with the contradictions. Born Montero Lamar Hill in 1999, Nas grew up outside Atlanta but came of age on the internet, turning to social media and meme-making out of boredom and teenage loneliness—feelings compounded by his struggle to resolve his sexuality. (He later became the first artist to come out while his record was at No. 1, though he’d figured that between the rhinestones and rainbows and the general vibe, it would’ve been obvious.) “I didn’t know it was gonna do what it did,” he said of “Old Town Road” and its companion EP, 7. “But it did what it did.” - Apple Music Jack Harlow “I still wanna be one of the greats,“ rapper Jack Harlow tells Apple Music about his commitment to his craft. “I’m very ambitious about this. And I think I have what it takes to really make a mark because I love the art.” Harlow, born in 1998 in Kentucky, is well on his way to turning that dream into reality. Growing up in Louisville, Harlow started writing and rapping at the age of 12 and released his bouncy first EP before graduating from school in late 2015. Since his more fully realised mixtape, 18, dropped in 2016, Harlow has continued to inject his chill party rap and poppy beats with “addictive, candy-coated qualities,” as he described it to Apple Music. “It’s good on the ears.” With 2017’s Gazebo, he established a more mature sound, moodily riding through his hometown with the intense “Dark Knight” and keeping things dreamy using synth pulses on the regret-laden “Wasted Youth”. It’s a vibe he honed on multiple mixtapes in the late 2010s, keeping with a feel he says is representative of Louisville—smooth and laidback—while exploring elements of trap, which is native to his adopted home base of Atlanta. With every beat on 2020’s punchy, swaggering Sweet Action, Harlow moved closer to the place he sees as his inevitable destination: “On top.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History Lil Nas X 2019 01 Old Town Road -1- MILLIONAIRE 2019 21 Panini -2- 2019 55 Rodeo (Lil Nas X & Cardi B) -AT- 2020 23 HOLIDAY -NAS- 2021 01 MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) -1- 2021 42 SUN GOES DOWN -PS- 2021 03 INDUSTRY BABY (Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow) -2- 2021 10 THATS WHAT I WANT -3- 2 x #1 | 3 x Top 5 | 4 x Top 10 | 4 x Top 20 | 6 x Top 40 | 8 x Top 100 Jack Harlow 2020 25 WHATS POPPIN -1- 2021 03 INDUSTRY BABY (Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow) 0 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 2 x Top 40 | 2 x Top 100 Social Media Lil Nas X Jack Harlow http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
October 1, 20215 yr The heatwave that never ends anyone up for another TikTok revival of this in the new year? Girls Want Girls dropping off fast :o given how bland/awful it is I assumed it would just hog the top 2 along with Shivers for ages
October 1, 20215 yr 'Meet Me At Our Spot' is a decent enough song but it feels wrong that it has now outpeaked 't r a n s p a r e n t s o u l', hmm ~ Not a particularly exciting chart week here. The movement I am most happy about is SHOUSE debuting and that should have happened like a month ago :lol: pretty much all of the other climbers/new peaks are ranging from mediocre to terrible (why is that Guetta abomination still climbing x). I guess good to see Public Service Broadcasting hanging onto #2 in the albums, well done to The Lathums though I've only heard 1 or 2 songs by them so far and they strike me as a very uninteresting ten-a-penny indie band but hey, they must be doing something right to have attracted such a fanbase in time for their first full album.
October 1, 20215 yr 06 | 05 | 14th week Ed Sheeran Bad Habits 1st single from = Released: 25th June 2021 Label: Asylum Records UK Chart Statistics NE (08/07/2021) | 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-3-5-6 Sales: 1,000k+ Certification: Platinum Status: Accelerated Chart Ratio 01 Sales 01 Audio Streaming 01 Video Streaming Video orJSJGHjBLI Biography There’s a lovely moment a little ways into Apple Music’s Songwriter documentary about Ed Sheeran in which Sheeran, jet-lagged and carrying a cup of tea, straggles out into a yard in Malibu at dawn, sits down at his laptop and begins writing a song about the moment right in front of him: the crisp air, the birdsong, the hot tea, the day ahead. He gets a full verse in, melody and all, then pauses. “Songs are weird things,” he says. “How so?” an interviewer asks. “They just come and go,” Sheeran says, smiling. “And they never give you any warning.” For Sheeran, they seem to come pretty reliably. Born in 1991 in Halifax, England, he started out gigging on the UK pub circuit before releasing his first studio album, +, in 2011, and has since become one of the most unstoppable singer-songwriters in music, forging a light blend of folk, pop, hip-hop and dance that feels slick but lived-in, intimate but universal. Whether on his own (“Sing”, “The A Team”, “Shape of You”, “Perfect”) or in collaboration with artists from Taylor Swift to Eminem to Justin Bieber, Sheeran has a unique ability to strike a chord that feels both bittersweet and redemptive, good-natured and genuine: the hopeless romantic who convinces you he might just be right. In 2017, he was made a Member of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, touching Prince Charles on the arm while shaking his hand—a breach of royal protocol, and an appealingly human one at that. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2011 03 The A Team -1- MILLION SELLER 2011 35 Hush Little Baby (Wretch 32 feat.

October 1, 20215 yr Love Nwantiti in the Top 5! One of the only interesting movements this chart week tbh.
October 1, 20215 yr Wonder if this has relinquished #1 without ACR after 13 weeks (just like Shape Of You did in the pre-ACR days)?
October 1, 20215 yr 05 | 04 | 3rd week Central Cee Obsessed With You 2nd single from forthcoming studio album Released: 10th September 2021 Label: Central Cee Chart Statistics NE (23/09/2021) | 5-4-5 Sales: 60k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 38 Sales 05 Audio Streaming 06 Video Streaming Video 3k2J7eavWiM Biography Shepherd's Bush-based Central Cee made his first steps in music toward the end of the 2010s, debuting with 2017's Auto-Tune-laced "Over You." His early career was characterized by the D-Block Europe-esque melodic trap of the era, with Cee opting for bouncy instrumentals and Auto-Tune-driven melodies on tracks like "TRANSITION" and "JUGG." However, in 2020 the rapper found himself drawn to a different style entirely -- U.K. drill. Kicking off the year with the guitar-laden "Day in the Life," Cee's skating flows proved a natural match for the genre's faster-paced sonics, which he continued to develop with the gritty "Molly" and a bold showing on Kenny Allstar's Mad About Bars. All prior successes were eclipsed in October of that year, though, when Cee released his breakout hit, "Loading." Landing at number 19 on the U.K. charts, the track secured the rapper his first Top 40 hit with its inventive drill production, active flows, and a magnetic performance on the mic. This success followed him into early 2021: January's "Pinging (6 Figures)" offered a more traditional take on drill, while February's "Commitment Issues" secured Cee a number nine spot on the U.K. charts. His debut mixtape, Wild West, arrived that March. Debuting at number two in the U.K., the tape expanded Cee's vivid drill sound with forward-thinking production and a wider range of narratives. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2020 19 Loading -2- 2021 44 Pinging (6 Figures) -3- 2021 09 Commitment Issues -4- 2021 44 Day In The Life -1- 2021 16 6 For 6 -5- 2021 62 The Great Escape (Blanco & Central Cee) 2021 17 Meant To Be (Stay Flee Get Lizzy, Fredo & Central Cee) 2021 34 Little Bit Of This -1- 2021 04 Obsessed With You -2- 0 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 2 x Top 10 | 5 x Top 20 | 6 x Top 40 | 9 x Top 100 Social Media Central Cee http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
October 1, 20215 yr Damn, this is dropping so slowly I can see it staying in the top 40 for months and months. I do really like it (or did) but the complete overplayment on radio has just made me a bit sick of it…
October 1, 20215 yr I maintain that Bad Habits is bang average for both Ed Sheeran's discography and in general. There's nothing wrong with it, I don't mind listening to it but it doesn't feel like it deserves the title of biggest song of 2021.
October 1, 20215 yr So the Top 10 starts with 6 fallers :lol: no desire to hear this over the original once it leaves the chart

October 1, 20215 yr I just can’t get into this at all after several listens, I really hope it doesn’t end up being a surprise #1…
October 1, 20215 yr Fast climb for this! Not a huge fan but good to see the something from the genre do well
