Rihanna Rumours, AI Kate Bush, and Lola Young Gets in Touch

Do the charts have the same relevance they once did? Annie and Nick discuss the potential reasons why there are no UK artists in the annual global top 10 for the first time since 2003. Elsewhere, Kate Bush is one of a thousand musicians behind a silent album to protest the government's proposed changes to copyright law. Should we be worried about artists having their identities stolen, or should we embrace change? Plus, Rihanna is set to release new music but it won’t be “radio digestible”, Lola Young has a tough question, and Nick’s back on the radio. Get in touch with Annie and Nick!
