The Global Soul Chart - 7th Jul 2021

Eight new entries this week, all of which have already been posted. D.Folks and Jewell Booker remain at #2 & #3 respectively and, as suspected last week with the advantage of her new album "See Me", Leela James leap frogs over them from #4 to the top.

The big surprise was Tygressa dropping like a stone from #1 to #13 and D Mills dropping out of chart completely from #8.

None of my recent tips have yet made it into the chart except for Samm Henshaw who was the second highest new entry at #8 (beaten by Angela Rose who's album "Rose To The Occasion" entered at  #5) and Durand Jones & The Indications who I suggested last week was a certainty. Also, as suspected, no entry for GarciaWalker&Durrell, but there's time yet.

My current fav for this week, which I will be pleasantly surprised if it gets in the chart, is the new single from Cherise "Remedy", posted today but released on 30 Jul, and also a couple of deep ballad tracks on Anthony Lofties' album "Sincerely, My Fault" i.e. "!'m So Sorry" and "Go Back" are excellent and real 'growers'.

Losers:

D Mills, Adeline Feat. Joshua J, Snoh Aalegra, Dawkins & Dawkins, Kadeem Tyrell Feat. Omar, Mike De'Cole, MELONYX, Jerome Thomas

Highest Risers:

Portrait (+6), Sidibe  (+5), Regi Myrix Feat. NexXxUP (+5)

Biggest Fallers:

Tygressa  (-11), Hil St. Soul & Noel Gourdin (-10), The Realm (-10)
