Dean has just fallen into the same spot as Jamie and Vick. He’s so frequently off that it leaves me wondering why he still has a spot. Nat is also falling into this spot but its a newer habit of hers. Granted i’d much rather her be in weekdays anyways and there’s the added bonus of nat actually being a good presenter! As with KISS I 100% agree that Tatum needs to go, she’s too good a presenter to not even be on FM radio anymore. Rio and Talina are right there and can get carried over easily. I think a major R1 lineup change is on the way cause most weekday presenters have had these slots for like 2-3 years now iirc (Dean, RMC, M&M, VKJ; with Greg having the Breakfast slot longer as one of UK radio’s biggest names now). also forgot to mention but it looks like Danni is gonna solo the breakfast show tmrw. Although the anthems slot is listing Sam too, breakfast only lists Danni. she’s definitely top 3 r1 presenters so i’m fully behind this!

oh i forgot to check that. damn it 😭. Point still stands though don’t rely on breakfast shows as lock ins.

also: December 10 - Infinity (123) Ellie Goulding - Black Prada Dress Olivia Rodrigo - the cure all of these could be 125, alongside ‘Dai Dai’. also ‘Eurosummer - Girls Trip’ isn't a single.

was loving Lau but also loved Sam on KISS so very open to this change!

no clue 😭 i know Mellow Magic whenever they play Stay With Me lists it as by Sam Smith (not Calvin ft Sam) so idk why the others cant

one off plays in the breakfast show don’t mean anything. You have to start paying attention from 10am on for global stations

im assuming buzz artist will be revealed on monday rather than this week

biggest ragebait ever 😭 how they gonna bring it back to capital and riviera and still bait us. glad we got smth new tho

Sabrina Carpenter - Espresso Sam Fender - People Watching Shaboozey - A Bar Song Teddy Swims - The Door Tom Grennan - Higher (unsure of this one, might have been an accidental play) not Ariana and Stella showing up after 84 years 💀. Gracie insta-replace caught me so off guard cause even ‘Hit The Wall’ took a little bit of time to get onto the playlist. Opalite is also back up to Main Playlist (girl got two plays in the first 4 eligible hours of the day she is BACK). Still no Stupid Song or Earrings but HTIMYLM took a few weeks so…

given what happened with Stay (IYWD) it’s possible! Keep an eye out for Gabriela

assuming they will add slayyyter at some point in the week or weeks coming, super happy its there to begin with

yea get ready lol free your mind is coming for the top 10 😭. but i think its 21st May: Malcolm Todd - Earrings (Peak rn is 17, position 21), this one is another one that could get top 10 but lets hope not 4th June: Fleetwood Mac - Dreams (peak/position 18) 11th June is Earrings again, positioned at 19, as will be the 18th June and also the 25th 2nd July: Silva Bumpa - On 2nite (peak/position 14), this one will most likely be top 10 in the following weeks too

the trend i noticed is riviera bringing back a song would usually mean a song is close to being added to heart, and then if the song returns to capital, it more than likely is going onto heart, so Gabriela might be next? Take That have come and gone for heart and the Cat Burns song flopped so…

we dont want him at hits. Shove him to heat radio and hits radio pride.

WOAH CAPITAL ADDED SLAYYYTER???? KATSEYE came back yesterday (as a recurrent) and now this? yea its def pride month

always bare minimum with riviera. KATSEYE’s only back cause capital brought it back as a recurrent 🫩

both her songs released this era were both so good, its actually devastating shes getting left behind. I wanna be delusional and say maybe she’ll pull an Ellie but i don’t believe myself when i say that.

dammed shame cause this one is actually really good. Best we can hope for is dean to do something good and make it his TOTW 🫩

adding on top of this. They are definitely giving ‘DON'T BELIEVE IT’ airtime so its weird it’s not made it yet. Would take it any day of the week over ‘Self Aware’. and still no Tyla?

Slayyyter is SHOCKING. hoping this one goes far. Sigh at Alessi and Maisie already out. Pretty much every A list replacement is much worse than what we had bar Stupid Song. Alex, Bleachers and F3miii all stuck on C list damn… also nice to see Phoebe, Ella and FLO. was hoping for some adds for Katy Perry and John Summit x Absolutely but maybe not right now.

yes i noticed these returns too! Very happy they are going back to more grungier recurrents as thats as good as they come!

flo again 🫩. Can they just playlist it now it gets excessive. I still think Therapy at the Club would be a better single too so… nice to see Ella finally pushing another song here… shame it’s not Bottom Of Your Boots tho.

weve already told him its not the same vocals or production so it can't be AI. just won’t listen.

i stopped doing kiss xtra a while ago cos it got stale (and cluttered with Drake). Kiss K-Pop is a rotating playlist thats yet to be updated since a few weeks back) (notable absences of KATSSERALLIT with all their solo releases too (bar katseye), CORTIS, aespa etc.) but since launch they added in a few extra stuff like Anyma/LISA, a song from K/DA and some random tracks from ARIRANG. so an update isnt off the cards she stays KISS’ best presenter.
