Rema climbs to Number 1 on the Official Trending Chart with breakthrough hit Calm Down
Rema's Calm Down has become the UK's Number 1 Trending Song, as the track climbs its way into the Official Singles Chart Top 10 for the first time.
The Afrobeats wunderkind has been a star on the rise for a long while, but his first proper breakthrough single marks this next year as potentially the most exciting of his career yet.
This is all lead by the emergence of Calm Down as a chart force to be reckoned with. After slowly planting itself inside the UK Top 20 for the past few weeks - so far peaking at Number 16 - the track is scheduled to leapfrog its way into the UK Top 10 this Friday, which would be the first of Rema's career.
It's been helped along the way by the issuing of a charismatic remix of the song featuring vocals from Official Charts favourite Selena Gomez, helping Rema crossover to an entire new audience in the meantime.

This week's highest new entry on the Trending Chart comes from Stormzy, who continues to tease the upcoming release of his new album This Is What I Mean with the release of new track Firebabe.
There are further debuts from YouTuber Ishowspeed (World Cup), Irish singer-songwriter Cian Ducrot (I'll Be Waiting) and...uh...two-time heavyweight boxing world champion Tyson Fury, who has covered Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline, to raise money for men's mental health charity TalkClub.
Elsewhere, we have three high-risers which could all vault up 20 places or more inside the Official Chart; Shack ft. Kim English (Moving All Around (Jumpin')), Nathan Dawe & Talia Mar's garage banger (Sweet Lies) and D-Block Europe (She's Not Anyone).
