LF SYSTEM are currently on track to score an eighth consecutive week at Number 1 with summer anthem Afraid To Feel – but they’ve got some tough competition.

London DJ Eliza Rose and Mancunian producer Interplanetary Criminal’s crossover hit B.O.T.A. (Baddest Of Them All) is nipping at their heels midweek.

Should LF SYSTEM hold on, they’d surpass Encanto track We Don’t Talk About Bruno’s seven-week stint to become the year’s second-longest-running Number 1.

OneRepublic’s Top Gun: Maverick tune I Ain’t Worried looks set to continue its steady ascent, on course to reach the Top 5 for the first time this week (5).

Aitch and Ed Sheeran’s collaboration My G could storm straight into the Top 10 this week, currently tracking for a Number 7 debut. The Manchester-born rapper has already scored two Top 10 hits this year; ArrDee collab War (6) and Ashanti team-up Baby (2).

K-pop superstars BLACKPINK could claim their first-ever UK Top 10 single with Pink Venom this week. The lead single from the group’s upcoming album Born Pink currently tracks for a Number 8 entry.

Aussie producer Luude and Mattafix are set to reach a new peak with their team-up Big City Life. The track jumps five spots to Number 11 midweek.

BLACKPINK at #8... then turns out they're outside Top 40 on Friday, because the First Look actually had incomplete sales info.

Nope. It has been on No.1 long enough that there needs to be a new No.1 next week.

'My G' is probably going to climb in the final chart & 'Pink Venom' will likely fall. 🤔

Thought the exact same thing as I was reading the update

It's because the former is fuelled by streaming & the latter is more based around sales. :)
