Top of the Pops, 19th May 2022

There's a rare sighting of Kendrick Lamar this week, and an even rarer non-festive sighting of Mariah Carey, who gamely comes along for her guest spot on the Latto track. Benzz is new, and Cat Burns and George Ezra reprise two of the tracks of the moment. Harry Styles has a Poirot-influenced look as he marks the magic six weeks at number 1.

Harry Styles continues to fry all opposition with the force of his pure loveliness, even Jack Harlow who can only reach number 2 (still hugely impressive from him). Not too shabby either is Cat Burns, who makes the top five for the first time.

There's a raft of new tracks on the show this week, including Digga D, Vibe Chemistry and Becky Hill and Ella Henderson trying to out-belt each other, plus a Tyga/Doja Cat collaboration that's spent a few weeks in the lower reaches already. Doja sticks around to exclusively do the Fergie bits for Jack Harlow as well, which is nice.
