Pitbull... smh :lol:

I think 'Unforgettable' would have peaked slightly lower, but the rest I agree. They were four of the biggest songs of last year after all.

This sounds very exciting! I thought he was veering away from the sound of his last era, so this is a pleasant surprise. I reckon it'll be 'Afrobbean' sounding considering its success in the UK at the moment and previous PARTYNEXTDOOR songs like 'Run Up' and 'Not Nice'. And to those who want 'names'... he worked with so many last era: Frank Ocean, Migos, Katy Perry, Pharrell, Nicki Minaj to name but a few.

Yeah this sounds like a hit in waiting, bit of a tune.

Too many to mention, but I always liked Wretch 32 more than anyone else I knew... he had such a cool sounding voice and generally solid, thought-provoking and infectious lyrics.

While the sample in 'Decline' was sledgehammer subtle, the sample here seems much more subtle and works very well. Really liking this!

Extending the deadline until tonight as there is currently a tie! Get your votes in...

Liking all the adds this week, 'La Puissance' was a bit of a discovery!

VhMW87avFIM Please please can this be the next foreign-language hit? :wub: French rapper MHD released the original of 'La Puissance', which translates as 'the power' last year and has been viewed 135m times on YouTube. Last week Major Lazer remixed the song and it is arguably the best thing they have attached themselves to in ages... Been on repeat since I first heard it and 1Xtra added it today to their playlist. I think I prefer this to all the Latin music that has been in the charts, but what does everyone else think?

First song this reminded me of was Starboy! Very good on first listens.

It was #1 I think! On all the major urban playlists too quite high up.

To be honest, I cannot see Radio 1 playlisting 'Ding-A-Ling'... they're probably waiting for Stefflon Don to release something else.

There's even more Not3s on the 1Xtra playlist... he's on about five separate tracks on heavy rotation there at the moment!

I totally agree that the original is my preferred track, and agree that the inclusion of Nicki Minaj has given this a boost on radio and replies here. :lol:

The Lazy Song Having not heard this for years, listening now I found myself knowing all the lyrics to this, :lol: One of those songs that takes you back to a specific time period - 'Grenade' being very illustrative of early 2011. Perhaps this is a sign also that the song has not particularly aged well either, but I imagine it is recognisable to anyone who listened to a radio or watched music channels at the start of the decade. Nice song, bit annoying and earnest (a theme in his music) and about the right time for it to depart. Gonna speed things up a bit now, so you have just under 48 hours to vote!

It sounds like a similar set-up to 'Fine Line' but slightly slower and with Latin influences. Not surprised it's been playlisted by Capital - it's a clear attempt to get into the charts.

Surely she is done, regardless of the strength of the song.

Which of course some people disagree, thinking an act can't be big if they're not in the charts.

But probably not all played I imagine. :lol: Pleasantly surprised to see Kojo Funds insta-added, probably sounds very commercial.

To be fair, most of Rudimental's output since 'Waiting All Night' has been fairly forgettable. This is one of the better ones.

It would be very West Ham to sign an injury-prone, past-his-prime player on ridiculous wages...

PMivT7MJ41M 8. That's What I Like (11 Votes) 9. Versace on the Floor 10. It Will Rain 11. When I Was Your Man 12. Young Girls 13. Gorilla 14. The Lazy Song Wow, a billion views for this on YouTube.... That is the indication of just how popular this track is. Released as the second single from '24K Magic', this was unavoidable at times last year becoming the type of song all types of radio stations playlist. In America it was even bigger, climbing to #1 in the spring and having a ton of remixes from artists like Gucci Mane and PARTYNEXTDOOR. I didn't clock its hit potential upon first listen of the album but this is impossibly catchy, if a little sweet and potentially annoying. Next round closes Wednesday, getting ever harder to choose now!

XDMGmtpvBjs One of my favourites at the moment. The original was big, but radio has started playing the remix version with Nicki Minaj and it isn't hard to see why. Complimenting the original, this is the best Nicki Minaj has sounded in a while and really fits with the song. The chorus is a hype too.

Despite this being her biggest pop single yet, I really like this! There is so much chemistry between Mabel and Not3s musically.
