This week’s biggest climbers are Timaya and Illbliss who each move up one place to number 4 and number 9 respectively, with “Ekoloma Demba” and “I’m Sorry”.
Skuki, Olamide and Dr Sid all remain locked in the same positions as last week, while former number one “E Mi Ni Baller” by Chidinma stays in the number three position for the second week running.
On the downward slide are DJ Xclusive (down one place to number 5) and Dammy Krane now at number 10 with “Xteristics”.
