And now the lists: Local List
1 Sometime (Yuh Nuh Easy)– Vybz Kartel- In the number one spot this week is the ‘ViKing’ himself Vybz Kartel with ‘Sometime’. Kudos to the incarcerated artiste for staying productive while in prison.
2 On Fleek– Alkaline- Slipping into second place this week is Alkalione with On Fleek. Still no confirmation as to whether or not the deejay’s trademark optical tattoos are fact or not, but the picture that has been floating around social media has caused quite an uproar. So we leave it to you, do you think he did it or is it possible that the pic is question was not recent? Decide for yourself.
3 Answer Me– Masicka ft Ishawna- Moving in to the third place spot this week is Ishawna and Masicka with Answer Me. The love song has been waking waves in the industry and is going be a favourite for these warm summer nights. This collab has our stamp of approval, and all we have to say is keep ’em coming.
4 Text Message– Busy Signal- Holding down the fourth place spot this week is Busy Signal with Text Message.

The simmering local song to listen to this week is
1 Slow Motion-Trey Songz- Topping the international list this is ‘Mr Steal Your Girl’ Trey Songz with Slow Motion.
2 All Eyes On You– Meek Mill ft Nicki Minaj and Chris Brown- In the second place spot this week is All Eyes On You. Actually, all the moment all eyes are currently on Chris Brown, who came under fire recently from his child’s grandmother who lashed out on Instagram about his child support requirements. The situation is currently being mediated in the custody battle. Good luck Chris and shout outs to all the grandmas who have their own IG pages.
3 BBHMM– Rihanna- In the third place spot this week is Rihanna with her monster hit BBHMM. The song is the ultimate club banger for summer, and is a must for any proper teenAGE ‘turn up’.
4 R.I.C.O– Meek Mill and Drake- Breaking into the top five to hold the number four spot this week is Drake and Meek Millz with R.I.C.O. We wonder if there was any awkward feeling in the studio during the making this song, as Drake was once romantically linked to Nicki Minaj who is currently engaged to Meek Mill. This question needs an answer.
5 Stitches– Shawn Mendes- Rounding out our top five this week is newcomer Shawn Mendes with Stitches
6 Yoga– Janelle Monae ft Jidenna
7 Where Are U Now– Skrillex ft Diplo and Justin Bieber
8 Watch Me Whip (Whip/Nae Nae)– Silento
9 The Night Is Still Young– Nicki Minaj
10 Five More Hours– Chris Brown Cool For The Summer– Demi Lovato
