Definitely! Just a quick glance through the list of Top 10s in 2012 proves that. :lol: A lot of it seems like disposable EDM-Guetta pop.

I actually found 'God's Plan' more instant than this, but I reckon this will sound great in the sun! Sounds like FIFA music too :lol: I don't think it'll do quite as well as God's Plan.

Swimming Pools is better remembered than half the Top 10 hits released in the same year! :lol:

I think the Yungen song may recover and do well in May/June but I did think it'd be doing better considering its been playlisted on the major stations.

Um, yeah? I could sit here and say loads of pop songs sound the same but that would be dismissive and patronising.

Good adds this week for Hardy Caprio and Yxng Bane! 'Vroom' is one of my favourite songs right now and its perfect for Spring. Like the RAYE song but it's quite weak considering the artists involved. Wish Sean Paul would go back to dancehall-crossover songs rather than this Pitbull reject track.

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2018/apr/...odern-superstar As claimed in the article above. I think his holds more credibility than Ed Sheeran does, so while he's probably not the biggest I can support the argument that he is the definitive pop star of this generation. The article raises some good points but what does everyone else think?

Come through Drake! A song like One Dance or Passionfruit to rule the summer please.

Yeah I can see this being big, got an earworm of a chorus. Perhaps a similar trajectory to 'Barking' and 'Jumanji'.

Prefer 'Bad Company' to this but still a tune! Looking forward to the album.

I wish it was 'Loyal' that would have gone to #1 but this is an enjoyable track in its own right. However, it is definitely the video and novelty aspect of the song that has helped it blow up. I think I'm at the point with Chris Brown where I can enjoy a couple of his songs but the thought of listening to a whole album from him does not appeal at all.

I miss dancehall Sean Paul.

'Let Me Blow Ya Mind' is not overrated. :lol: I've heard it on many nights out, always gets a reaction. A couple of 90s classics there from Mark Morrison and Luniz. Been listening to a lot of 90s music recently (Cypress Hill, A Tribe Called Quest, 2Pac, Fugees, Nas etc...) so I welcome their inclusion!

I actually think the features add greater appeal to the song personally. Let's not forget after the group changes it would have been hard for M.O. to get a solo hit. The features were very well chosen, as both Lotto Boyzz and Mr Eazi are upcoming artists who have released very popular songs over the last twelve months. 'No Don' went from a song by unsigned artists to a place on the R1 playlist within six months, propelling the profile of Lotto Boyzz. These type of trajectories are the definition of success for artists like these. Mr Eazi had a big underground hit last year with 'Leg Over' which was remixed and re-released with high profile artists like French Montana and Major Lazer. They add credibility to 'Bad Vibe' and broaden its appeal. It was urban radio that supported this song from the off (video premiere on GRM Daily and instant 1Xtra support) and I would have been surprised if that had happened without the features. Remember Mabel has used Kojo Funds and Not3s on her charting hits, Stefflon Don featured French Montana on 'Hurtin 'Me' and Jorja Smith linked up with Stormzy. None of these artists have charted in the Top 40 with a solo single. Just because Lotto Boyzz and Mr Eazi haven't had hits (a subjective opinion anyway) it is hard to deny the strategic importance of their feature on this song.

Thankfully wrong! We were excellent in the first half, and the third goal was a sight to behold. We should be okay, provided we get four more points from somewhere (hopefully Stoke at home). However, that shouldn't detract from the season we've had.

Good to see some of the long-running songs on the A-List removed and liking the adds for The Weeknd, AJ Tracey, Mishlawi, Not3s and Rich the Kid!

The Mabel song is much better, so fair enough I say.

Agree with this! Liking the EP on first listen, reminds me of his earlier work.

Whenever I hear 'These Days' it's a sad reminder about what's happened to Rudimental - they were so fresh when they first emerged and alongside Disclosure defined British commercial dance music in that period. Especially when 'Feel The Love' came out of nowhere and became one of the biggest songs of the year. Now they are releasing safe pop music (the Ed Sheeran collab to save the second album was the turning point I think).

'Pray For Me' got old quickly, but the last album was great and had so many highlights! Considering all the festivals he is headlining this summer it makes sense to put some new material out. Interested to hear where he goes next, always struck me as an artist prepared to innovate.

Can't see her being an album artist to be honest (I mean, has any Nicki Minaj album become a classic) but one or two songs could be decent.

I think the 'Mans Not Hot' comparison was very apt - it's novelty for sure but also very credible (the beat in particular is irresistible).

How delightfully patronising.
