Gym and General Fitness Thread
I am determined to get back into this, I do plenty of exercise but I think I spend too much time lying on my bed or sitting down. Need to tweak my diet to accommodate this and just be more active during the day.

HATECHART 2017 RESULTS
Bodak Yellow, Shape Of You, HUMBLE, iSpy, XO Tour Llif3 & Bad & Boujee have no place in the Top 10 - more a reflection of Buzzjack taste than the thankfully better taste of the general public.

Potentially yes! Maybe send me a PM explaining it in more detail and I'll see what we can do.

I am more than happy to recommend one track a week on here (on a Friday would be good I think).

Predictions for music in 2018
I'm not sure that Stormzy will release new music next year, but he definitely has the widespread appeal to get to #1. Maybe Skepta would get a big hit if he released or even someone like Stefflon Don.

Predictions for music in 2018
If a UK rap artist does get to #1, I hope it is actually with a rap song. Not a pop-dance hybrid like Heatwave.

I wish this would blow up in early 2018... nhNqbe6QENY

A very judgemental, patronising opinion with unfounded assumptions.

GoldLink - Crew (feat. Shy Glizzy & Brent Faiyaz)
nhNqbe6QENY Turning out to be quite the sleeper hit... this was a New York summer anthem but is quite high on American Rhythmic formats right now and now its started to crossover to the UK. B-Listed on 1Xtra, this is one of the catchiest hip hop songs I've heard all year (just listen to the wavey chorus). Would love for this to get more exposure in the UK, GoldLink is a very talented rapper who is poised to feature on the new Craig David album having previously worked with Kaytranada. One to watch.

Predictions for music in 2018
Think UK Rap will continue to be successful through the first half of the year before peaking commercially in May/June time. I predict a big year for Chance the Rapper, Justin Timberlake, Khalid, Mabel, MoStack and Steel Banglez particularly.

Not3s - My Lover/Mabel Remix
XataOVgLvEQ Video for the Mabel version has dropped. They seem to have good chemistry here and I know that Not3s features on a future Mabel single!

BBC Radio 1Xtra Playlist
I think they must have done the playlist meeting before Christmas - with only three additions and the playlist in danger of looking stale. I think they do their playlist meetings on the Monday or Tuesday which obviously this year was Christmas! Pleased to see Fredo/Not3s added, very catchy track. Less pleased to see Post Malone on there - a 2016 song on the 2018 playlist isn't a great look as much as I like the song.

Dance Music In 2018
Most of his album has apparently been produced by The Neptunes, so I think it could well sound something like this!

Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot
I'm amazed at the longevity this has had. Honestly, this was doing the rounds during September. How much bigger can it possibly get?

Big Shaq - Man's Not Hot
A UK Allstar remix has just premiered featuring Lethal Bizzle, Chip, Krept & Konan and JME!!

2017/18 FA Premier League
The bottom of the table is where its at anyway, glad people are finally realising! :lol: Swansea and West Brom look in danger of being cut adrift at the moment. Pardew will get them on a run eventually though.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 22nd December 2017
In what way?

Dance Music In 2018
I can't really see a fully fledged Garage revival next year - even Craig David isn't making Garage music anymore.

R&B and Urban Music in 2018
Oh yeah Khalid will be huge. Even 'Location' is quite well-known considering it did nothing in the UK. I wouldn't be surprised if he had a #1 hit actually.

iTunes Weekly Thread W/C 22nd December 2017
The first year I really remember musically is 2003 - so many classics released around that time! I think 00s influences will make a comeback sooner or later.
-
R&B and Urban Music in 2018
I'd almost forgotten about Tinashe tbh. I've heard the remix a lot recently so I think it could certainly have a second wind! That or 'Plain Jane' by ASAP Ferg/Nicki Minaj - both equally catchy.

R&B and Urban Music in 2018
Cardi B seems to be popping up on every other song at the moment, I think she has momentum. Just needs that second hit to cement herself, or to show some diversity in her music. Stefflon Don has the million pound record deal, so I expect she'll get the biggest push. Needs to recover from 'Ding-A-Ling' though, that was a huge mis-step commercially. Mabel has just been placed on the R1 'Brit List' which guarentees three straight playlist places and one record guaranteed R1 A-List. She's got a good niche with mainstream British R&B, so I'm expecting big things from her.
