UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e May 5th 2016

UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e May 5th 2016 Drake feat. Wizkid & Kyla stays at No.1, in the UK Top 100 Music chart summary w/e May 5th 2016, with One Dance, and it’s just bland, auto-tuned blandy blandness. I find it difficult to get annoyed at such a lazy track, but I’m amazed anyone bought it.

There are no *new* entries in the Top 10, but there is a re-entry for Prince at No.6 with the classic Purple Rain. There’s also a stack of Beyonce tracks in the chart, but since they’re from her album, why would the fans buy all of them separately??
