Each week, 8 new releases are selected to go head to head, with one weekly winner which will then go up against future weekly winners later in the year at the end of each quarter of the year, and then again at the end of the year to determine the ultimate winner of 2025.

 

Last week's results;

PinkPantheress – Illegal [ 7 ]

Sophie Ellis-Bextor – Taste [ 5 ]

Tom Grennan – Full Attention [ 5 ]

Tyla – Bliss [ 4 ]

Miley Cyrus – More To Lose [ 3 ]

Calum Hood – Call Me When You Know Better [ 2 ]

Jasy J is back with a banger tbh

What a terrible selection, far from a vintage week for new music

Went with Rihanna but I'm not even massive on that after a couple of listens

Voted Skye Newman though even that's just OK for me

1 Skye

2 Morgan

3 Jessie

Voted for Rihanna for the pretty banging production but what is that doing on a Smurfs soundtrack

More votes please!

would've been Kaarija!

Going for J

Who'd have thought Jessie J would have such a comfortable lead in one of these polls in 2025... and on BuzzJack of all places!

@Jessie Where you better look away now as the next time you do she could be in double digits!
