Jack Harlow's Lovin On Me becomes UK's Number 1 Trending Song

Jack Harlow's Lovin On Me debuts at Number 1 on the Official Trending Chart today, as it currently challenges The Beatles for Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart. 

Described by Jack as a "new era" for his career - and the first solo single he's released since dropping his third album, Jackman, earlier this year - Lovin On Me is a bouncy rap track, which twists a provocative sample from 2005 R&B track Whatever (Bass Solique) by Cadillac Dale, repurposing the song's first verse as it's chorus; "I don't like no whips and chains, you can't tie me down, but you can whip your lovin' on me..."

Originally predicted to debut at Number 2 on the Official Singles Chart, but is now currently in contention to leapfrog past The Beatles' record-breaking current chart-topper Now And Then and claim Number 1 for itself. It would be Jack's first UK Number 1 single. He previously reached the Top 10 on three occasions; with First Class (2),  Industry Baby with Lil Nas X (3) and 3D with Jung Kook (5).
