Global Soul Chart 19th Mar 2022 (Week 11)

19th Mar 2022

The Global Soul chart broadcast on Sat 19th Mar as it is every Saturday between  5pm-7pm (GMT) on Global Soul Radio.

No "Essential 5" this week but the 'Breakers' will be posted separately.

Ego Ella May takes over the top spot from Mary J. Blige after two weeks at the top for MJB and only the second week on the chart for Ego Ella May boosted by the release of her new EP on 8 March. The second and third spots rooted to Krishawna and Royalty Duo respectively. There are four new entries with the highest being Jermaine Hardsoul. The highest climber is Otis Kane up twelve places and biggest faller is Moonchild dropping ten places.

After predicting the loss of Robert Glasper and Nanette Maxine last week both have actually gone up the chart! It's harder to call this week but I would guess Centric and Moonchild are probably definites to go. I'm not personally a big fan of the lowest three new entries so it remains to be seen if they stay or go!

Summary: 10 risers, 4 fallers, 2 non-movers and 4 new entries

New Entries: Jermaine Hardsoul, Soultri, Poet22, Kadeem Tyrell & XVR BLCK

Highest Risers: Otis Kane (+12), Muni Long (+7) , Robert Glasper (+6)

Biggest FallersMoonchild, (-10), Centric (-7), Mart J. Blige (-4)

Losers: aimi, B. Golden, Melba Moore & Carmichael Musiclover, Sound Of Superbad

Todd Breed Feat. Jermaine Clarke [2022] - Give Me the Reason [Self Released]


Todd Breed is the urban alter ego of headRocka (aka Jeff McDonald) from Dudley, West Midlands (UK). He featured on the blog for the first time last month with his single "The Way You Move" featuring Christopher Hall & Indigo. He is back a month later with his latest single "Give Me The Reason" which is another collaboration with Jermaine Clarke. When I first saw the title I wondered if it was going to be a cover of the Luther Vandross song, but it isn't.
