8/20/24

TikTok has revealed the most popular tracks in the U.K. this summer across its platform, with “Nasty” (Nice Life) by Tinashe topping the list with more than 10m video creations.

Blood Orange takes second place with “Champagne Coast” (Domino), followed by "MILLION DOLLAR BABY (VHS)” (ISO Supremacy/PULSE) by Tommy Richman and “Pink Lemonade (Str8 Reload)” (Str8 Reload Ent) by London rapper LeoStayTrill & Mr Reload It.

Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” (Island), which spent five weeks at the top of the U.K. Official Singles Chart, takes fifth place. Her other seven-week #1, “Espresso,” lands at #10.

Other songs by British artists on the list include “BAND4BAND” (Columbia) by Central Cee & Lil Baby at #7, “Stargazing” (RCA) Myles Smith at #8 and “KEHLANI” (300) by Jordan Adetunji at #9.

As noted by Record of the Day, four of the songs have yet to even crack the Official U.K. Singles Chart Top 40. We’ll let you make of that what you will.

Meanwhile, the U.S. version of the same list is led by “MILLION DOLLAR BABY,” while the platform’s global Top 10 is headed by FloyyMenor & Cris Mj’s “Gata Only.”
