Biography

 

“We’re the ones that are pushing this boundary,” D-Block Europe’s Young Adz told Apple Music. “People who are signing urban music over here—they call it urban, we call it pop in the streets—that ain’t street music. We’re doing street, UK, wavy music, front-lining it.” They might not consider themselves pop, but by the most literal definition, DBE are just that. Chart positions, sold-out arenas and a nomination for the 2020 BRIT Award for British Group (before they’d even released a debut album) all make them one of UK rap’s most popular acts. D-Block Europe was originally a collective that called upon various London MCs, but Adz and childhood friend Dirtbike LB have emerged as both the engine room and executive board of the operation. They met at Sedgehill School in South London, where Adz was dropping mixtapes from the age of 13. He signed an ultimately fruitless major-label deal at 15 before coming under the patronage of NY rap heavyweight Jadakiss, who offered features, support slots and license to use The LOX’s D-Block Records name. With a series of self-released singles and mixtapes, Young Adz and Dirtbike LB took their place at UK rap’s top table during the late 2010s. Leavening trap’s chilly textures and portraits of road life with sticky Auto-Tuned hooks, their music is notable for its nimble wordplay and candour. While D-Block quickly gathered notoriety for their unfiltered bedroom braggadocio (“Kitchen Kings”), their willingness to open up about mental health and therapy (“Prescription Drugs”) has made them a standout presence in UK rap. It’s all been done independently by the industrious duo (63 new tracks released across three mixtapes during 2019 alone). They’ve continuously waved away offers from labels, confident that no one can guide their career as well as they can. Every award, Top 5 release or filled arena only strengthens their self-belief. “When you see Messi kick ball, it’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing,” said Young Adz. “Sometimes, the people have to choose you because they’re like, ‘We ain’t never going to see this again—from their sounds, from what they talk about.’ Our personalities shine through our music. We’re bigger personalities than rappers.” - Apple Music

Biography

 

Lost Frequencies

Felix De Laet, better known as Lost Frequencies, has soared to phenomenal success in recent times. Releasing his global smash hit ‘Are You With Me’ back in 2014 and quickly cementing himself as a name to watch, the track rapidly ascended by hitting multi-platinum status and taking the #1 spot in 18 countries. Add to this Lost Frequencies was the first Belgian artist to secure his first 5 hit singles charting at the #1 spot on the Ultratop official Belgian charts, as well as the first Belgian artist to hit #1 in the UK, he went on to release his long-awaited debut album ‘Less Is More’ in 2016. The album, with notable singles’ ‘Beautiful Life’ and ‘What Is Love 2016’ dazzled globally, certifying a future star for a new generation. Lost Frequencies also firmly established himself as one of the strongest, fastest rising talents with his debut entry in the 2017 Top 100 DJ Poll at #26; ‘highest new entry’ that year. As the accolades multiply for Lost Frequencies, counting wins for ‘Dance International’ and ‘Hit of The Year’ at the ECHO award ceremony (comparable with the U.S. Grammy's) amongst his awards, he has also become a leading light in the world of streamed music. To date his music has received over 1 billion plays and counting as every release, from his remix of Major Lazer, Justin Bieber & MØ’s ‘Cold Water’ to his most recent release ‘Crazy’ with Zonderling (already a #1 airplay hit in Belgium, Germany & Poland), continues to receive support from fans across the world. - Spotify

 

Calum Scott

Calum Scott honed his huge, honeyed pipes singing other people’s songs, but he didn’t fully find his voice until he began creating his own intimate pop vignettes. Born in 1988, in the Northern England city of Kingston upon Hull, Scott first took up the drums, while his sister Jade became the singer of the family. Eventually, Jade discovered her brother’s natural way with a fierce falsetto and chilling vibrato and signed him up for a local singing competition in 2013. He sang Paolo Nutini’s “Last Request” and won. Following that thrill of performing in front of a crowd, Scott joined Maroon 4, a Maroon 5 cover band, before tagging along with Jade at an audition for the ninth series of Britain’s Got Talent. There, with a stunning, slowed-down version of Robyn’s “Dancing On My Own,” he blew away the judges, especially the notoriously scathing Simon Cowell, who pressed the “Golden Buzzer,” sending Scott directly to the live semifinals. Nerves got the better of him in the finals, and while he didn’t win, the singer used that exposure to launch his solo career and start writing material for his 2018 debut album, Only Human. Like his showstopping Robyn cover, Scott’s original songs are both poignant and empowering, especially the swaying, gospel-tinged celebration “You Are the Reason” and the piano-powered tearjerker “No Matter What,” a raw retelling of his experience coming out to his parents. Such personal tales bring out a sincerity and soulfulness that show Scott’s songwriting to be just as moving as his voice. - Apple Music

Luude at top 10 :dance:

Lost Frequencies returning to top 5 :yahoo:

Awww Calum so deserves a top 5 hit (even though he had a millionaire despite not even getting top 40). He deserves to be a big chart star.

It's strange it wasn't in the top 5 on Sunday.

 

Also, why did Scott say "Felix from Lost Frequencies" even though Felix is Lost Frequencies?

Biography

 

Following the success of 2016’s Moana, Lin-Manuel Miranda reunites with Disney as chief songwriter for Encanto, a celebration of family that also pays loving tribute to Colombia’s rich and diverse musical tradition. But there’s another name on the bill that’s just as exciting and noteworthy: Germaine Franco, the first female-identifying composer to score a Disney animated feature-length film. - Apple Music

the Encanto songs really are single-handedly saving this top 10 lmao 💀 everything else besides SGU is grim
It's strange it wasn't in the top 5 on Sunday.

 

Also, why did Scott say "Felix from Lost Frequencies" even though Felix is Lost Frequencies?

 

Scott caught out by the old solo artist with a plural name trap. :lol:

Not a fan of LF song yet sounds very like alot of other dance songs for me, but like Belters and Ludde is ok.
Awww Calum so deserves a top 5 hit (even though he had a millionaire despite not even getting top 40). He deserves to be a big chart star.

 

I love Calum but this feels like a one off - his first two singles from this era didn't trouble the charts, and the new one he released today looks like following that trend.

Lost Frequencies was not an act I was expecting to see back in the top five any time soon. Good for him and Calum.

 

Sounds like a lot of those dance hits that smash all over Europe but barely make a dent here. Interesting to see those two new top 10 dance songs too, I don't love either of them really but always good to see the genre throwing up some surprise smashes.

 

Family Madrigal <3 I got the Encanto soundtrack on CD yesterday, one of Disney's best of recent times for sure.
