June 22, 20232 yr Lol if a 90 year old person release a new song it's also In New Music We Trust lol :D
June 23, 20232 yr While I am elated at Kylie being playlisted, I do want to apply this quote from The New York Times after Halle Berry won her Best Actress Oscar for Monster's Ball in 2002 (and can apply to Michelle Yeoh's win this year as well): When interviewed by The New York Times two days after the ceremony, Reuben Cannon, the first Black casting director for a major movie studio, tempered his enthusiasm. “I am thrilled about what took place last night,” he said. “It is significant. But we should not mistake a moment for a movement. It’s a significant moment. Whether it’s a movement, only time will tell.” Much in the same way racism is not eradicated, I don't think ageism will ever completely end at Radio 1 either.

Oh for sure. This is a complete one-off because of the song. I notice Adele Roberts has just been replaced by two predictable young presenters.
June 23, 20232 yr Author To precisely nobody's surprise, the TBC has been confirmed as Stormzy feat. Fredo - Toxic Trait. It's a bit of a snoozefest tbh.

Exactly. Hence why I don’t appreciate being told to apologise to Radio 1!
June 24, 20232 yr Pretty sure this is the first time JoJo has been playlisted on R1 since "Anything" in March 2007. 16 years! Hope she makes a few more smart collabs happen. Edited June 24, 20232 yr by Golowhore
June 25, 20232 yr Author I wonder if Peggy Gou will go straight from the C-list to A-list next week? Been a while since we had one of those!
June 25, 20232 yr ‘VIRGO’S GROOVE’ did so just a couple months ago and we’ve also had Lizzo’s ‘Special’ this year. I believe only ‘Afraid To Feel’ went C-A last year. Edited June 25, 20232 yr by J14C

June 25, 20232 yr For what it’s worth, I can only see two songs being removed from the A-List this week (one of Niall Horan, Royal Blood or Taylor Swift, probably Niall, joining Rudimental) with Olivia Rodrigo being insta A-Listed and Nothing But Thieves moving up with their album out Friday. Peggy Gou then moves C-B-A.
June 25, 20232 yr Author Yeah, Niall will almost certainly be gone this week, along with either Taylor or Rudimental. I'd also be very susprised if Olivia isn't insta-A-listed!
June 26, 20232 yr Do we think They will add CS on this Friday? They must... And for sure Olivia going straight to A-List.
June 26, 20232 yr Author Do we think They will add CS on this Friday? They must... No, I don't think Cat Stevens has been on R1's radar for a few years now. Seriously, I wish people would stop using initials unless it's obvious from a previous post what you mean, it took me a little minute to work out you were talking about 'Cruel Summer', although maybe that's just me!

Ok, relax… and I’m sure Cruel Summer was more of an easy guess than Cat Stevens, but maybe it’s just me…
