Disciples - 48hrs
So after being really disappointed at first, I have to say this has really grown on me - fingers crossed R1 get on board!

How long will The Greatest Showman soundtrack stay at #1?
Blossoms' second album could challenge for number-one when released on April 27th (the debut spent two weeks, albeit during the dead of summer).
-
Ben Howard - Noonday Dream
He’ll need to come back with something strong, else he’s going to go under the radar; what with George Ezra and James Bay, and newcomers like Tom Walker and Sam Fender getting radio (R1 specifically) support.
-
Kojo Funds ft. RAYE - Check
All signs point to this being a decent hit then. It’s just been added to the R1 playlist too!

Nuh Ready Nuh Ready • Standalone Release
“My Way” always felt soul-less, so I’m glad to hear that he wasn’t actually that excited by it either. Came across as a dig at Taylor following their break-up anyway, which I never liked. Here for “Nuh Ready Nuh Ready” though, getting garage and dancehall vibes from it; sounds fresh!

Sound of 2018 / artists to watch
I did not call IAMDDB nor Rex Orange County being in the top 3 when there’s the likes of Alma, Sigrid, Not3s, and Tom Walker still to feature in the top 5! So hard to call a winner now. If the amount they are hammering Sigrid, Not3s and Tom Walker’s new singles are anything to go by though, perhaps Alma or someone else will be crowned winner. Convinced it won’t be Superorganism in any case, sadly, as they are Annie Mac’s tune of the week already. The Sound of poll really is one of the most exciting reveals in music (to me anyway!)

Sound of 2018 / artists to watch
Very surprised to see them place Pale Waves in the top 5 actually, though I do really like them. Torn about who I think they’ll give the remaining spots to, but for now I’ll predict Not3s, Sigrid, Tom Walker, and Alma. The fact that Superorganism were a Hottest Record for Annie last Tuesday makes me think that they’ve just missed the cut sadly.

Streaming Platforms
Paid for Apple Music - haven’t had any problems to make me look elsewhere, and like that it is all intergrated with my pre-streaming age Apple library.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 24th November 2017
Sounds Like Friday Night 12. Craig David - I Know You (feat. Bastille) 57. Tom Grennan - Found What I've Been Looking For 67. The Killers - The Man 68. Craig David - Heartline 92. Anne-Marie - Heavy Great performances from all this evening. Am I correct in thinking this is the first time Tom Grennan's been in the T100 with a solo hit? Admittedly not the current single ("Royal Highness"), but glad FWIBLF is getting some more exposure.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 15th September 2017
Jessie J and Labrinth both releasing comeback singles... I had no idea. Wonder if either will turn into hits further down the line.
-
Lorde - Perfect Places
This is the best thing she's released to date, wish it had been a big hit for her.
-
Ella Eyre - Ego (feat. Ty Dolla $ign)
Big feature for Ella, especially after the Feline era went a bit quiet after the album was actually released. Hope it does well for her, "Came Here For Love" is a tune!

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 14th July 2017
Extremely sad circumstances, but it would be great to see "Heavy" re-peak. "I keep dragging around what's bringing me down. If I just let go, I'd be set free" :cry:

Another Drake single coming out? There are so many great songs on More Life that he didn't even get round to pushing properly!
