Objectively, I'd also suggest these: B.o.B. ft. Bruno Mars - Nothin' On You David Guetta - Gettin' Over You Flo Rida - Club Can't Even Handle Me Nicole Scherzinger - Don't Hold Your Breath Jason Derulo - Don't Wanna Go Home Dappy - No Regrets Cover Drive - Twilight Chris Brown - Turn Up The Music Maroon 5 - Payphone will.i.am - This Is Love Ne-Yo - Let Me Love You (a lot of trend-hopping dance-pop in this section) The Saturdays - What About Us Aloe Blacc - The Man will.i.am - Its My Birthday (jokes this even got to #1, but terrible song) Rixton - Me and My Broken Heart Cheryl - I Don't Care Tinie Tempah - Not Letting Go (like this song but completely forgot it went #1) ZAYN - Pillowtalk (considering the hype I barely remember how this goes) Generally speaking, streaming has eliminated these non #1s that were so common earlier this decade. This list also goes to show that chart position isn't as important as a song's real impact. Also, getting to #1 seems more of an achievement now so perhaps the chart-toppers from recent years have a better chance of being remembered than some of the entries here.

'Blurred Lines' not getting enough recognition here.

No worries man! Liking the adds for J. Cole.

Great to see Shakka doing so well here, as has been mentioned he's only really had 1Xtra support! The song has been floating around for months and is a very summery record. He's a prolific artist too, so this will hopefully be his biggest hit since 'Say Nada'.

Nines, Not3s and Tom Misch :wub: In a way I'm glad to see Yungen flop this time, couldn't imagine anybody over the age of 15 seriously enjoying that song. Could have been released any time this decade and pales in comparison to 'Bestie'.

Hope to see Post Malone do well!

Album out today! Sounds interesting on first listen, production varied and very melodic as to be expected. 'Better Now' is on the NMF playlist and is very catchy, and the Swae Lee song sounds potentially big. Post your thoughts here, dependent on interest an album rate can be arranged!

That sounds more like it!

O-fydBL9g_k After scoring a hit with 'iSPY' this time last year (to the dismay of large swathes of Buzzjack), US pop-rapper KYLE. is on the verge of achieving another hit with this effort. Linking-up with Kehlani, 'Playinwitme' is a catchy pop-rap record that should sound very good in the summer months to come. Personally, this is more instant than 'iSPY' ever was but I'm not sure it will have any longevity. However, this does sound like it belongs on the Capital playlist at the very least.

Excited for this!

I've heard rumours that the Swae Lee featuring track sounds big! Looking forward to this album.

Lots of very good songs been mentioned so far! Here's one more of mine: zI339U6GS9s Really reminds me of Euro 2004 in Portugal, the first tournament I was immersed by.

Forrest Gump :wub:

Yeah 2003 was a hot summer and there were so many R&B anthems that came to dominate the zeitgeist that year! Off the top of my head, there was Ignition, Crazy In Love, Get Busy, In da Club, Never Leave You....

To celebrate the arrival of the warmer weather, I want to know people's go-to R&B/Urban anthems when the sun arrives! Could even turn this into a song contest dependent on interest! My #1 go-to song would be: vPLXEXXq_k8 Stone-cold classic that only sounds right when the sun is shining! A few others would be: Snoop Dogg ft. Pharell & Uncle Charlie Wilson - Beautiful Kendrick Lamar - Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe Gyptian - Hold Yuh Busta Rhymes ft. Mariah Carey - I Know What You Want Calvin Harris ft. Frank Ocean & Migos - Slide Fetty Wap - Trap Queen French Montana ft. Swae Lee - Unforgettable Blu Cantrell ft. Sean Paul - Breathe Ja Rule - Livin' It Up

Not forgetting a new J. Cole album! The Naughty Boy song doesn't sound like a hit.

Intrigued what this'll do for the career of Ray BLK... I rate her, but her last single was a bit disappointing. 'My Hood' remains her best offering.

Promising link-up!

Was just coming to post this, hyped for this! His albums are normally solid, really liked Deja Vu and Neighbours from the last one amongst others. His favourite of mine is 'Power Trip' though. :wub:

Good to see Migos on the rise, the video to 'Walk It, Talk It' has really enhanced my enjoyment of the song!

It was still a huge festival hit, even if it has been overshadowed by 'That's Not Me'. Still, I'd argue it was the song that kick-started the mainstream grime revival.

One of the best things about this song is the referencing of this: OHZRHEJHS2k My tune back in early 2014.
