US rapper 24kGldn is heading for a third week at Number 1 on the UK Official Singles Chart with Mood.

Highest new entry of the week after 48 hours comes courtesy of London hip-hop collective D-Block Europe and Manchester rapper Aitch, their new collaboration UFO starts at Number 13. The single is taken from D-Block Europe’s forthcoming 29-track debut album The Blueprint – Us vs. Them, out this Friday 9 October.

Former chart topper Savage Love (Laxed – Siren Beat) by Jawsh 685 and Jason Derulo sees the biggest climb of the week so far, up 10 places to 11 since Friday boosted by a remix from K-pop stars BTS who have added a new verse to the song in Korean.

Elsewhere, Sigala & James Arthur’s Lasting Lover advances four places midweek to a potential new peak (14), while a five-place tumble lies ahead for both Justin Bieber ft. Chance the Rapper's Holy (15), and Drake ft. Lil Durk’s Laugh Now Cry Later (18).

And finally, just outside the Top 20 is a midweek re-entry for the iconic Blue Monday by New Order (26). The 1983 album Power, Corruption & Lies from which it is taken is reissued this week along with a remastered 12" vinyl release of the signature single - could this propel it all the way to a first Official Chart Top 40 appearance in over 25 years on Friday?

Disapointed that the new Blackpink song doesn't look like it will make the charts :/ Hopefully the album will do a lot better!

No, not "Mood" at No.1. Pls guys don't make this song No.1 again. I want "Looking For Me" to be No.1. Please listen to that song so it can definitely have a first week at No.1.

It is stupid that "Tick Tock narrowly missed out on the Top 10 this week and it is supposed to be No.12 next week. Stream the out of that song to ensure it goes on the top 10.

Very little action in the Top 10, but at least 'Head & Heart' should be returning to the region! :D

For the USA market, no doubt. They are current number one there with Dynamite.
