21st May 2022
The Global Soul chart broadcast on Sat 21st May as it is every Saturday
between 5pm-7pm (GMT) on Global Soul Radio.
Each week around a dozen or more 'Breakers' are interspersed with chart entries. These will be posted
separately.
On only his second week on the chart, entering last week at #2,
Raheem Devaughn inevitably leapfrogs
Reuben James at the top after only one week there. The
killer track is "Waiting For Your Love" which is one of those that
just gets better and better with each play and will almost certainly
be a candidate for the end of year selections which I'm afraid is
looking pretty thin so far this year.
Eight risers, eight fallers and four new entries, the highest is
Thais Lona with the album "CUBE" and two very good entries
from Morgan Munroe which was Soulstrutter Selection of
the Week two weeks ago which only just pipped the other new entry
from Gavin Holligan for the selection the same week.
Two of last week's new entries dropped straight out (Conor Albert
and Sanura & Raheem Devaughn) along with two predicted to go
(Samuel Archer and Tigga Bounce) but two other predicted to go (Gwen
Bunn and Sierra Sellers) hung on for another week but will more than
likely be gone next week with Desmond Parson, Kayla Amor (almost
definitely) and it could be bye bye for Sly Johnson and Clowette.
Therefore, it looks likely that there will be at least six new
entries or more next week.
The only two I'm not personally 'feeling' in the current chart are
Zay Blaze (the only track not posted) and PJ Morton's album as there
are only a few of tracks that appeal to me, albeit one of them is
one of my picks of 2021 (i.e. "Please Don't Walk Away").
A few 'goodies' around that might see an entry are
Sidibe, Tamara Dos Santos, Kadeem Tyrell, Jordan Lee, Jazlynn Soul, Freekind., Juanita Wynn (but probably not for a week or two as
it's only just been released). Pip Millett's chances of airplay are
scuppered by expletives which may mean it doesn't get a chart
entry. I'm surprised Tahay hasn't made an appearance
yet and it might be too late now. I'm also surprised that
Jessiqca Jones "REHAB" has not done better.
