Afternoon all! Remember the chart begins at 3pm today for the Christmas countdown!

As always, NO SPOILERS PLEASE! This involves anything that has not yet been revealed on the Radio 1 countdown, and applies site-wide. Don't risk a temporary suspension by ruining it for others!

Now my cassette and CD R of this is definitely going to fill up to the fullest!

Also it's going to be live streamed on the BBC News app and website so you can see Jack on what we used to call the chart cam!

Edited Friday at 14:065 days by Stephen Emmett

Fingers crossed Kylie’s made it!

Will be interesting to see the sales regardless and if it ends up being close or not

Honestly this is the first Christmas I've spent on Buzzjack and I've never seen the Christmas chart threads in real time before.. having started joining in March.

Come on Kylie (can’t even believe I’m saying that!)

Haven't been this excited (and incredibly nervous) about the chart in a long time!

COME ON KYLIE ❤️

XMAS!

KYLIE FOR NO.1 AND MARIAH FOR NO.2!!!!! It'd be the first ever top two solo females with Xmas songs in chart history!!!! Unless you count River

Looking forward to tuning in and commenting along with you all!

Afternoon all

Kylie's last #1, 'Slow', is actually my favourite song of hers but I was a bit too young to remember it topping the chart. So it would be cool to hear her getting a #1 for the first time and a great chart story!

As for the throwback charts, I loved Taylor's 'willow' from five years ago, evermore feels like quite an underrated era for her standards

Ready for Kylie to become the first woman to top the charts in four separate decades!

The day I thought would never come, my Queen vying for another #1 22 years later

Preparing for the chart and it's unusual to hear the normal 1-3 show before the chart instead of the hour long party anthems. At least in my recording lifetime.

If Kylie makes it today, she would also only the sixth solo female to have a Christmas #1!

Not on the radio today so I can actually listen to the chart! Hoping anything but Wham is number one

Slow isn't a very memorable no.1, so it would be good for her to have another.

All The Lovers should have been her most recent no.1 tbf ... well that then Padam

and the third if you exclude X Factor winner's songs?

Biography

Whispering betrays an intimacy—a shared acknowledgement of something sacred. And 21 Savage, rap’s ASMR wordsmith, uses the technique to intimidate and taunt, to threaten and destroy. Violence was quite literally Shéyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph’s introduction to rap: He started after his best friend was killed (and he himself sustained gunshot wounds) in a shootout on Joseph’s 21st birthday. This is music born in the streets, desensitized to tragedy because any other coping mechanism would result in unending heartbreak. His breakthrough, 2016’s Savage Mode, produced entirely by Metro Boomin, showcases the rapper’s deadpan delivery and ambivalence toward the stories he tells. With the EP, 21 emerged as one of rap’s great stylists, with his flow and Metro’s minimal beats giving the album an almost ambient feel. When 21 took his signature sardonic style to its logical extreme on Metro Boomin’s “Don’t Come Out the House,” he betrayed a playful willingness to engage with our image of him. With 2018’s I Am > I Was, though, 21 proved he was more than a single, captivating style. The album boasts a diversity of ideas, homing in on post-trap and club anthems and heightening the impact of his signature snarl, which grows in menace as it’s used less frequently. He used to shroud his apathy entirely in hushed sneers, but now, when 21 Savage lulls us with a whisper, the quiet is deafening. Between 2020 and 2022, he only reaffirmed his penchant for club-ready street raps, with his Metro Boomin and Drake joint albums (SAVAGE MODE II and Her Loss, respectively) all leaving an impression on the culture. Of course, those were only appetizers for 2024's american dream, a project that sees 21 explore his upbringing while rapping alongside a diverse cast of collaborators like Doja Cat, Travis Scott, Lil Durk, and more. Imbued with the ease and subtle finesse of a mob boss, the LP proves that the most powerful voices are sometimes the quietest. - Apple Music
