2025 BPI Certifications
6x Platinum for Justin Bieber’s “Sorry” is insane - his best single in any case imo.
-
MK & Clementine Douglas - Come Find Me
On paper, this should be huge, but I said the same about Sonny Fodera and Jazzy’s “All This Time” and that didn’t hit T40.

Ed Sheeran - Play
Loving Symmetry!

Listening back to Jack Saunders’ show from last Thursday and he announced it already… Gorillaz.

2025 BPI Certifications
Sam Smith & Burna Boy’s My Oasis getting certified, lovely!
-
Olivia Dean - Man I Need
Happy to see Olivia looking to debut within the T10 with this - album’s going to do well at this rate!
-
Tom Grennan - Everywhere I Went, Led Me To Where I Didn’t Want To Be
Happy to see Tom likely to get another #1 album, but I miss Tom’s original sound - this album isn’t for me.

Estimated ACR status updates 2025
Feels too early for the likes of Calvin, MK, and Olivia Dean, but happy to see some of the others ready to go on ACR.

Indie/Rock/Alt Track of the Week 2025: Week 30
Some great ones this week, but Lola Young is my favourite of them all - hope this can be another hit for her.

New CMAT track sounds great, would be here for that being a hit. Lola Young and Sombr’s new tracks sound like they could (and would deserve to) be big!

On paper, Sonny Fodera and Jazzy’s new single should be a hit. Interested to see how high Skye Newman debuts with single #3.

Ed Sheeran - Sapphire
Had this on repeat all day, this is such a great track from Ed!

The Giver sounded huge, everyone was/is just still too caught up on Pink Pony Club. Not even a Sabrina fan, but will take pretty much anything being #1 over Ordinary.

Surprised Friendly Fires wasn’t certified already!

I had to scroll for ages to find Sleep Token’s album under New Releases on Apple, which won’t help it pick up casual listeners. In any case, great to see it doing well, and PinkPantheress too!

2025 BPI Certifications
Always here for MARINA getting more certifications, such an underrated artist!
-
2025 BPI Certifications
Another two certifications for Fontaines, yay! The 1975’s best song, imo, going Platinum this week too.

Not blown away by any of the ‘big’ new releases this week really - Sugababes and Tom Grennan were probably my favourite of the releases that might trouble the T100.
-
dearALICE - Ariana
This is stuck in my head.
-
Jazzy & Kilimanjaro - No Bad Vibes
I am still not bored of this, so good!
-
Tom Grennan - Shadowboxing
Cannot get into this one at all. Now he’s popular can we go back to the original sound please, it was so good!

Radio 1's Sound Of 2025
Pretty sure R1 will want to be attached to the ‘breakthrough’ of Doechii, so will be surprised if she’s not #1 at this point.
-
Who will have the next big era in 2025?
I’m eager to see what Bruno Mars has lined up; all signs seem to point to whatever he comes back with - solo - being huge.
