Rising star Dua Lipa dominates this week's Official Trending Chart, holding the Top 2 places on the Top 20 rundown.

The singer's Sean Paul collaboration No Lie logs a second week at the top of the chart as it looks set to reach the Top 10 on this week's Official Singles Chart, currently at 10 in the latest sales flash. 

Meanwhile, her current headline single, Be The One, is at 2 on the trending Top 20 and is on the cusp of entering the Official Singles Chart Top 10 this Friday, up ten places to Number 11 in yesterday's update. The only other artist to hold spots 1 and 2 on the trending chart is Ed Sheeran with Shape Of You and Castle On The Hill.  

The Official Trending Chart tracks the most popular songs making an impact in the UK each week, based on movement up the Official Singles Chart (more at the bottom of the page on how the chart is compiled).

Lipa also features on Martin Garrix's new single Scared To Be Lonely, which is set to make a strong debut on Friday's Top 40. The song doesn't feature on this week's Official Trending Chart as a maximum of two tracks by the same artist (or credited) are eligible.

Elsewhere on this week's trending Top 20, brand new tracks making a big impact include Major Lazer's Run Up, Rag'n'Bone Man's new single Skin, and Jamiroquai's first release in seven years Automaton.

About the Official Trending Chart

The Official Trending Chart is a brand new chart launched for 2016 to highlight the hottest new tracks beginning to make an impact in the UK every week.

The Top 20 rundown, published on OfficialCharts.com every Tuesday, based on the first four days’ sales of each chart week, is designed to highlight emerging hits as they begin to scale the Official Charts and build buzz.

The Official Trending Chart ranks titles which are showing week-on-week chart growth, and is the only “new music” chart to reflect audio track sales and streams comprehensively across all services.

Devised by the Official Charts Company in close consultation with labels, retailers and media, the chart since launch has highlighted emerging hits such as Number 1 single One Dance by Drake, and The Chainsmokers & Halsey's chart topper Closer.

The chart is designed to help highlight hit singles in their early stages of their growth, in the light of the shift in release strategies of record labels over the past six months. Under “On Air On Sale”, labels have started to release new music for consumers to buy or stream on the same day as those tracks are released to media (including radio stations and TV).
