November 11, 20223 yr Was hoping Lavender Haze would get another week top 10 but oh well :( What a bop and another fab track from Midnights <3 Can't wait for the video to hopefully be released sometime soon!
November 11, 20223 yr In case nobody else checked, this is only the second top 40 hit to have 'Lavender' in the title, the first being Marillion - Lavender, which peaked at #5 in 1985!
November 11, 20223 yr I don't mind 'Lavender Haze' but it's probably one of my least faves off the album. Hopefully 'You're On Your Own Kid' enters next week now.
November 11, 20223 yr Author 10 | 07 | 4th week Stormzy Hide & Seek 1st single from This Is What I Mean Released: 14th October 2022 Label: 0207 Def Jam Chart Statistics NE (27/10/2022) | 7-7-7-10 Sales: 80k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 08 Sales 09 Audio Streaming 01 Video Streaming Video BXd62mMu1UY Biography Grime attracts big personalities, but even by the genre’s imposing standards, Stormzy isn’t so much a rapper as a force of nature: a 6’5” lyrical whirlwind boasting a powerhouse voice and one of the most impressive ascents in pop music, stepping up to headline Glastonbury within five years of his debut EP. Born Michael Ebenazer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr. in 1993, Stormzy was still a boy when grime was in its infancy, and he came up battling fellow teens at youth centers in his native Croydon, London. By the time he was 20, he had launched his “WickedSkengMan” series, uploading freestyles over classic grime beats, and he swiftly developed a rep for his tough staccato flow and pugnacious attitude. Fittingly, Stormzy performed his 2015 single “Shut Up,” one of his earliest hits, at a heavyweight boxing match. “I set trends, dem man copy/They catch feelings, I catch bodies,” he raps on the song, and it’s true that when he throws down the gauntlet, he tends to make history: 2015’s “WickedSkengMan 4” was the first freestyle ever to break into the UK Top 40, and in 2017, his debut album, Gang Signs & Prayer, was the first grime album to go to No. 1 in the UK charts, 14 years after Dizzee Rascal’s Mercury Prize-winning Boy in da Corner first carved out a space in UK pop for the upstart underground genre. But Stormzy quicky proved himself interested in more than just besting his rivals, instead using his platform to become the voice of conscience for young and marginalized people across the UK. At Glastonbury 2017, he delivered a moving tribute to the victims of that summer’s Grenfell Tower fire; at the 2018 BRIT Awards, he aimed a scathing freestyle at Prime Minister Theresa May, whose government he accused of negligence after the fire. Musically, too, Stormzy has shown a willingness to push beyond grime’s traditional limits, dipping into R&B and gospel as he vacillates between taunts and introspection. “I would be a bit fake if I just gave you pure grime albums,” Stormzy told Apple Music. “I’m going to embrace my musicality because that is true to me as well. I love melody and I love R&B and I love pop music. Bruv, I’m going to do whatever I like.” - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2015 49 Know Me From -NAS- 2015 18 WickedSkengMan 4 -NAS- 2015 08 Shut Up -1- MILLIONAIRE 2015 49 Dude (Lethal Bizzle & Stormzy) 2017 06 Big For Your Boots -2- MILLIONAIRE 2017 21 Cold -3- 2017 22 Bad Boys (feat.

November 11, 20223 yr Absolutely love 'Hide & Seek' :wub: I'll agree it's not Stormzy's best effort as a rapper but the vocalists really, really elevate it for me!
November 11, 20223 yr Hide & Seek is nice enough, but some of the vocals sound like D-Block Europe which is definetly not a good thing.
November 11, 20223 yr Stormzy would have had 4 weeks at #7 if it weren't for that meddling Drake & 21 Savage x
November 11, 20223 yr Author 09 | 11 | 7th week venbee and goddard. messy in heaven Non-album single Released: 23rd September 2022 Label: Sony Music Entertainment UK Chart Statistics NE (06/10/2022) | 53-38-20-14-14-11-9 Sales: 90k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 15 Sales 19 Audio Streaming 22 Video Streaming Video kq0esXnc29k Biography venbee Venbee, a twenty-one-year-old from Chatham, Kent (UK), started writing music at the age of 8 after watching her grandad play the piano. By the age of twelve, she had already decided she wanted to be a musician. ‘Music has always been my strong point, it’s one of the only things that help me get through the ups and downs of life,’ says Venbee. ‘If I didn’t do music I’d probably be working a dead-end job, only thinking ‘what ifs.’’ Looking up to artists like Carol King, Lola Young, Adele and Billie Eilish for sonic and lyrical inspiration, Erin also looks up to Demi Lovato’s sense of self and the familiarity she brings as a role model. She states, ‘I am and will always be unapologetically myself. I’m a bit of a nutter. When people listen to my songs, I hope they can relate.’ Freestyling and memorizing the lyrics alongside rhythm guitar to combat her dyslexia, Venbee is currently working on her debut EP set to release in 2022. - Soundcloud goddard. 'goddard.' is an electronic music producer and DJ from Kettering, United Kingdom. An artist with an impressively varied sonic palette, Goddard has travelled an interesting path before arriving at his current resting place within the electronic community. The artists relationship with electronic music has seen him hold a presence in House, Techno and ambient genres - creating a platform for an exploratory journey into emotive and enriching sound. Citing influence from artists like Maribou State, Bonobo, Chase & Status. Goddard now finds himself fusing the experience of his past with his love for Drum and Bass to create a boundless end product that can be described as limitless and freestanding electronic music - not defined by genre or concept. Very much a musician’s musician, he is a firm believer in the ‘fewer samples and more writing’ ethos - allowing him to harness a standout sonic signature and set him apart from the crowd. - Spotify Top 100 Chart History venbee 2022 59 low down (venbee & Dan Fable) -NAS- 2022 09 messy in heaven (venbee & goddard.) -NAS- 0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 2 x Top 100 goddard. 2022 09 messy in heaven (venbee & goddard.) 0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 Social Media venbee goddard. http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
