It’s shaping up to be a close race for this week’s Official UK Number 1 single, with Cardi B’s WAP ft. Megan Thee Stallion poised to take the Number 1 spot from Joel Corry’s Head & Heart ft. MNEK.
In today's Official Chart First Look (Aug. 30), WAP is currently ahead by less than 80 chart sales, meaning it's still all to play for this week's chart crown.
WAP has been eyeing up the top spot since its release, debuting at Number 4 in mid-August and spending the last two weeks at Number 2.
Boosted by viral success on TikTok, US rapper and singer 24kGoldn is on track to score his first UK Top 10 single with Mood ft. Iann Dior, so far up six places to Number 5.
Meanwhile, K-pop girl group Blackpink are off to a strong start with their new single Ice Cream ft. Selena Gomez, currently at Number 12 and on course to be the group’s highest charting single yet.
Calvin Harris’ brand-new collaboration with The Weeknd, Over Now, is also on course for a Top 20 debut, currently at Number 19. As things stand, it's set to become Calvin's 35th UK Top 40 single.
The final Official Chart Top 40 will be unveiled on BBC Radio 1’s Official Chart with Scott Mills this Friday from 4pm, with the full Official Singles Chart Top 100 published on OfficialCharts.com from 5.45pm.

and is bts gonna go #1 in the uk anytime soon?
Sunshine Gal
hey what's up everyone :))))) haven't been here in a LONG time. how does everyone like the new bts song? it's upbeat and all, but some of their earlier songs are better in my book...anyway, it entered @ #1 on the hot 100...so good for them.
Blank
Sad indictment of the country for this sort of expression to be at #1.
Who knew Cardi B could be such a successful prostitute? Luckily I've only heard video reviews and not the song audio.
Dignity has left the building.
crunch2k
Soo happy to see BLACKPINK debuting so high, I'm loving the song and it's such a great collab!
JoeNak
Maybe Mood can become a #1 in the future? 11 to 5 is a big climb
Piran
No offence to Cardi B, but if this was just Megan Thee Stallion, it'd be absolutely lit! :D
Seriously though, her two verses (especially the first one) are incredible.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
i love megan in general. her flow is awesome!
Piran
'Savage' came so close to getting #1 in the UK too! :P
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
that and say so were robbed.
Piran
'Say So' really deserved it! :O
Augustus Doministrix
Oh dear god no. That is not even a song. So so and absolutely trashy with god-awful lyrics, I get people have their own tastes but I cannot comprehend how ANYONE on Earth can like this.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
i’m sorry guys, but this is one of my favourite songs at the minute. unverification adores it too. i rate it a strong 8/10.
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
get in there!!! let’s keep it this way, great song! will be nice to see rap on top again. 😜
new acc - disqus.com/afrog69
I agree with u on rap. What do u think of Mood and Tick Tock?
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
mood is awesome; strong 8/10.
tick tock, i find quite forgettable, but the beat is dope; light 5/10.
Piran
Eh... well, it was fun while it lasted!
I'd have loved 'Head & Heart' to remain at #1, but I guess I'm fine with 'WAP' getting there for now.
I'm absolutely buzzing about 'Mood' going Top 5, but man, that BLACKPINK & Selena Gomez collaboration came out of nowhere! :O
🧡 oliviasnoodles 🍜
we got wap at number 1 though, so i’m not complaining too much.
i’ve heard a bit of ice cream and it sounds like a trap-inspired song from memory. need to hear over now though!
Piran
As BLACKPINK's last charting song really disappointed, I'm going in with slightly lower expectations than normal sadly! :/
I could deal with 'WAP' being #1 for two or three weeks, but any more would annoy me, haha.

2 Would well annoy me
Piran
I'm happy to see 'Tick Tock' & particularly 'Mood' climbing so fast! :D
Sunshine Gal
hey mate, surprised to see me here :D as usual, don't know most of the chart here :D
Piran
Hey Sunshine Gal! :)
Finally, you made it back here, haha.
Did you check out some of the songs in our chart? Most of them are either UK rap, pop or EDM!
Sunshine Gal
yeah, but as usual i don't know too many uk acts :P
Piran
I'll have to recommend some more British acts to you when you're next online then! :P
Sunshine Gal
👍 sounds good! I’ll keep you updated on when I get my laptop back.
Piran
Did I tell you that I got a new laptop lately? :)
Sunshine Gal
oh good! i remember you telling me your previous laptop was too slow on fb...that's what was happening to me, but i don't know if i was on during peak times...you know me and my politics ;) but there's a lot of russian trolls posing as trump supporters on there...so i don't post that much...but we'll see after the upcoming election ;).
Piran
I wonder how Trump contracting the virus is going to affect his campaign to retain the presidency! For as much as I don't wish it on anyone, I really hope he learns from this & doesn't downplay the pandemic anymore, i.e. by actually wearing face masks in more places. :/
Sunshine Gal
well he's technically president until jan. 21st *or sometime around there*. so let's say joe biden wins on nov. 3, he technically won't be inaugurated *sworn into office* until mid-jan. but if trump's health subsides and he can't function, then mike pence *his vice president* will have to step in momentarily.
and i totally agree with you mate...i'm sorry for ANYONE who has this virus...but he asked for it. do you know who nick cordeiro is? he was around my age and a broadway star...he died from this virus. and it's not just that, the pain and suffering he went thru...he had to have part of his leg amputated! i myself have seen covid patients go into temporary paralysis!! i mean, if you don't have this virus, don't go out and get it.
and i still see trump supporters here proudly wearing their stupid trump hats and NOT wearing masks! seriously, people like that get the virus...good! and now so many in trump's circle all have the virus. but they all disregarded the medical advice and wouldn't wear a mask...but see how easy it is to wear a mask!?? can't wait for joe biden to be president and set a better presidential example for the u.s. and world!
