Drake is obviously Hadji.

Personally I think the one that'll hold up the most is '24K Magic'.

Gorilla 14. The Lazy Song Close run thing, but 'Treasure' falls just short of the semi-final. A song that wouldn't sound out of place on his latest album, I actually really like this one! Partly for memories (this was on the radio the day I passed my driving test) and partly because this is classic Bruno Mars: a track that sounds both retro and modern. Relentlessly catchy, I am not surprised to see this one so high up. Votes for the semi-final close at midnight on Tuesday so get voting! Would be great if we could manage 40 votes...

Very good remix I agree, Jorja and Wretch both add something different to the track. I can understand why they've pushed 'Location' here again - it wasn't a hit at all I don't think, but the problem for me is that this is such a 2017 song I can't get too into it again.

Currently a tie and half an hour left to vote! Make a difference.

Would blow up this forum anyway! Thinking outside the box a little, I've heard Jax Jones and Mabel are working together... on paper that sounds like a hit in waiting.

Surprised that 'Barking' is off already, although it is being heavily supported by commercial radio so maybe 1Xtra felt they didn't need to support it anymore. Nice adds for Migos, Burna Boy, H.E.R., Khalid, Ms Banks, Octavian & Tom Misch too - 'Party Here' has been a favourite of mine for the last month or two.

Shock leader so far!

I got 2-Step Garage vibes from this too, refreshing to hear such an established artist making fresh music like this!

It's a very trippy video isn't it? :lol: Think this will be more of a university club and house party song than a chart hit personally, but it's pretty great.

The 'I only love my bed and my momma' line has been endlessly quoted on social media and nights out by people I know. It's already a very popular song in this demographic.

Worth it for the potential reactions on here to be honest. :lol:

Good week for adds here... The Weeknd/Kendrick, Khalid, Kojo Funds, Migos and MIST!

I went for 'Finesse', although it's a banger the other three have the advantage of holding up very well for me personally.

The Lazy Song Half surprised this lasted so long, but 'Just The Way You Are' finally falls and by a significant margin. Another Bruno Mars video with a billion YouTube views, this song was an absolute monster back in 2010 becoming one of those songs you would hear just about everywhere. Listening after all this time, it is clearly a strong pop song but I would suggest it hasn't aged too well. However, with Valentine's Day just around the corner, expect this to be dusted off by Heart FM for the day. Votes close midday on Sunday, so get voting! I think we are left with the four best Bruno Mars songs personally so becoming very hard to pick now.

A remix of 'Location' featuring Jorja Smith and Wretch 32 has been released - a sign this will be pushed in the UK!

I love it, can see quite a lot of people hating it. :lol: No idea how it'll do commercially.

The snippet I've heard sounds very similar to 'Run Up'!

I agree that Can't Hold Us is the best Macklemore song - a perfect example of pop rap!

Got until midnight to get your votes in!

Here's my selection of urban music that deserves exposure this week... T Mulla - Dollar Pound Cake ryEFyW_YIh8 Recently added to UK Hot Hits on Spotify, this looks likely to become the next UK rap song to be pushed... this has been floating around for a few months now but was recently signed. Decent listen, I think it sounds very similar to 'Unsigned' which was a tune and bodes well for this. Lil Xan - Betrayed EbfK7dei7ec Another song added to UK Hot Hits and another song that has been floating around for a few months. This has really grown on me, I like the melody and vibe of the song and wouldn't surprise me to see this do well. Someone said this would prove very divisive on Buzzjack, but I honestly think there are worse offenders than this! Mahalia ft. Little Simz - Proud Of Me nnkRDMKEY4E Second song of Mahalia's to appear here, she reminds me of Lily Allen vocally for some reason. She's linked up with Little Simz on this one, which has a laid-back feel and another sign of a potential breakthrough artist. Capleton ft. Chronixx - Help The Weak VlD2GYtD29Q We finish with a little bit of reggae this week, a real sing-a-long track that epitomises the best of the genre. Chronixx has been on top of his game for years (remember Who Knows?) and provides a solid verse and melody to this one that makes me yearn for the warmer months to come.

Some great taste here!!

The Lazy Song It was close, but 'Marry You' departs a respectable 6th. Seeing as I personally only remember the melody of the chorus, I would suggest that the song has done this well. Giving it a quick listen, it sounds very inoffensive which may explain why its held on so long. Heating up now, the next round closes Wednesday night.

151. Bazzi - Mine I'll be amazed if this doesn't end up as a huge hit... sounds like the perfect crossover pop song for 2018.
