Top of the Pops, 2nd May 2024

In a week with such a high profile new release, it was inevitable that the number 1 spot would of course be taken by the world-shaking cultural icon Post Malone - and of course Taylor Swift, on whose song he is kindly invited to guest.

Elsewhere the influx of Swift has pushed most other songs down a few places, so we have to look a fair way down the chart for other climbers. That's good news for Shaboozey and Lay Bankz, and even Pozer down at number 41. Also of note is the new entry from Headie One and Stormzy - with a perhaps surprisingly low-key chart position for such a big-name team-up, but of course they bring the energy to the TOTP studio.

Debuts: Lay Bankz, Shaboozey

Pozer - Malicious Intentions

In at number 41

Drake - Push Ups

In at number 14

Bryson Tiller - Whatever She Wants

Up 2 to number 22

Shaboozey - A Bar Song (Tipsy)

Top of the Pops, 28th March 2024

It's quite a male line-up this week, with only Ava Max flying the female flag - even the first lady of country and western Beyonce has been knocked off the top spot in favour of Benson Boone and his questionable gender politics. Still, there are fairly storming performances from hoary growlers Teddy Swims and Rag 'N' Bone Man, and a more polished offering from V.

Noah Kahan makes a surprise return to the show, and the show is somewhat stolen by none other than Mark Knopfler and a stage full of six-string virtuosi.

The big winner at the BRITs is also the big performer on Top Of The Pops this week: Best New Act (among other things) RAYE celebrates ten years in the biz with three chart climbers, performed in an exclusive medley.

Also performing two tracks are Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign, whose latest batch of hits seems to have more chart staying power than usual. And there are new chart peaks for Djo, and Benson Boone's throaty woman-as-object anthem. Beyonce remains at number 1 and is joined by another classic country act for extra authenticity.
