00:00:07.990 --> 00:00:11.949
Hey, welcome to stream state,
your weekly podcast all about the state of
2
00:00:11.990 --> 00:00:15.429
music and streaming. My name is
Carla, and here's your update on the
3
00:00:15.509 --> 00:00:19.309
top songs, artists and music videos
of the week across the streaming platforms we
4
00:00:19.510 --> 00:00:23.379
love to use. Today we're starting
off the episode in the same way that
5
00:00:23.460 --> 00:00:27.940
we've started every single episode of stream
state so far, with stay by the
6
00:00:27.980 --> 00:00:32.820
kid the Roy, featuring Justin Bieber. This song from Sydney's record breaking eighteen
7
00:00:32.859 --> 00:00:36.490
year old indigenous music artist the kid
Le Roy, has been the number one
8
00:00:36.530 --> 00:00:40.649
song in the world for nine weeks
straight now. Stay has received seven hundred
9
00:00:40.729 --> 00:00:44.649
sixty million streams on spotify, while
on its way to joining the billions club,
10
00:00:44.929 --> 00:00:48.130
and the sound has been used in
six and a half million videos on
11
00:00:48.289 --> 00:00:54.000
tick tock and you just you say
it's right. Wait, come a wait.
12
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.679
This week news also came out that
the kid the Roy is changing management
13
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.280
teams, leaving Scoota Braun, who
still manages Justin Bieber, and heading to
14
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.150
Adam Leeber's new management company, rebel, where he'll join the likes of miley
15
00:01:04.230 --> 00:01:08.430
Cyrus and little NAS x. The
second song this week is industry baby by
16
00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:11.510
a little NAS x, featuring Jack
Harlow, and the song has moved from
17
00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:15.109
fifth place on the global two hundred
to number two, being pushed up by
18
00:01:15.109 --> 00:01:19.260
the release of little NAS's album Montero. It was a really interesting interview that
19
00:01:19.340 --> 00:01:23.099
came out this week on inside with
one of the producers of the song,
20
00:01:23.379 --> 00:01:26.340
twenty four year old jazz musician Nik
Lei, who produced the horn loops for
21
00:01:26.420 --> 00:01:30.900
industry baby. The main producer of
the song, Denzel Baptist and David Byral,
22
00:01:30.939 --> 00:01:34.569
who make up the Jewey take a
day trip, went to the same
23
00:01:34.689 --> 00:01:38.569
college as Nick Lei's manager, who
put them in contact. So basically the
24
00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:42.049
story is little NASAX was looking for
some trombone loops for the song industry baby,
25
00:01:42.250 --> 00:01:45.969
and Nick happened to have a folder
full of Horn loops that he'd made
26
00:01:45.969 --> 00:01:49.280
during the pandemic. Once he sent
them over and Little Nas was happy with
27
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.840
what they sounded like, Denzel reached
out again, asking him to make a
28
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:56.560
fresh one that sounded like a king
entering a stadium, and he sent over
29
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:10.270
this scene from Shrek to as a
reference. Enough, I magine nick got
30
00:02:10.310 --> 00:02:15.229
the job done and that Shrek reference
was one that inspired the horns in industry
31
00:02:15.270 --> 00:02:25.020
baby. That's a pretty fun fact. I reckon a Liuna's used to play
32
00:02:25.020 --> 00:02:28.819
the trumpet in High School and in
an interview with take a day trip,
33
00:02:28.860 --> 00:02:31.530
they said that it was something can
really gravitated towards. They said when we
34
00:02:31.689 --> 00:02:36.729
use the loop in industry. Baby, he immediately snapped into full inspiration mode
35
00:02:36.729 --> 00:02:39.930
and essentially freestyl the entire song.
The third most stream song this week,
36
00:02:40.009 --> 00:02:45.080
bought two polar opposite music groups together
who are both huge in their own right,
37
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:50.280
the British pop rock band cold play
and the globally renowned kpop group bets,
38
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:53.719
release their Song My universe on the
twenty four of September and then gifted
39
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:58.750
us with the colorful, cosmic,
well produced music video about a week later.
40
00:02:59.270 --> 00:03:02.789
My Universe is cold plays third single
released from their upcoming night studio album
41
00:03:02.949 --> 00:03:07.349
music of the spheres, which is
set to come out on October fifteen.
42
00:03:07.150 --> 00:03:12.710
The collaboration between bets and cold play
started earlier this year in February, when
43
00:03:12.789 --> 00:03:16.819
bts covered cold plays fix you on
MTV unplugged, which is really a beautiful
44
00:03:16.860 --> 00:03:25.659
cover, I must say, and
then cold play responded to this on twitter,
45
00:03:25.740 --> 00:03:30.090
showing their love for the cover.
This got fans of both cold playing
46
00:03:30.169 --> 00:03:34.969
bts very hopeful for a potential collaboration
between the two groups. Then a couple
47
00:03:35.009 --> 00:03:38.650
of months later, in April this
year, rumors started swirling when the lead
48
00:03:38.729 --> 00:03:42.080
singer of cold play, Chris Martin, was spotted at an airport in South
49
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.879
Korea. UNBEKNOWNST to fans, Chris
was there to record the chorus of my
50
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:50.919
universe with bets. During an interview
about cold plays first release, higher power,
51
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.840
from the upcoming album, Chris address
the rumors, saying I love them
52
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:57.509
a lot and so if the right
song came along, I wouldn't ever say
53
00:03:57.550 --> 00:04:00.430
no. This did absolutely nothing to
squash the rumors that a collaboration might be
54
00:04:00.550 --> 00:04:04.949
in the works. Then the song
was officially announced on the thirteen of September
55
00:04:05.310 --> 00:04:09.949
and in a following interview on the
Cali Clerks and show, Chris Martin said
56
00:04:10.219 --> 00:04:13.819
we really don't believe in any boundaries
or separation of anything really, and so
57
00:04:13.979 --> 00:04:16.540
the song my universe is about someone
being told they can't love a certain other
58
00:04:16.620 --> 00:04:18.939
person, or can't be with this
race, or they can't be gay,
59
00:04:19.259 --> 00:04:21.740
whatever it might be, and we
thought it would be good to sing this
60
00:04:21.899 --> 00:04:26.490
with bts, because maybe we're not
supposed to be together, and it turned
61
00:04:26.490 --> 00:04:30.209
out to be one of the most
fun things ever. My Universe is an
62
00:04:30.250 --> 00:04:33.449
uplifting pop rock song that uses cosmic
analogies to sing about love and all the
63
00:04:33.529 --> 00:04:39.319
positive and sometimes difficult aspects that come
with being with someone that you consider to
64
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:44.240
be your universe. After Chriss,
chorus rm from bts reflects on the idea
65
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.399
of not being able to be with
someone you care about because of your differences.
66
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.759
The intergalactic music video is directed by
Dave Myers, who was also the
67
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:56.589
man behind edge Shearon's music video for
bad habits and also doja Kats and Sowedi's
68
00:04:56.670 --> 00:05:00.230
best friend, and the music video
is about to superstar music groups who are
69
00:05:00.269 --> 00:05:04.670
exploring the galaxy of the spheres,
when music happens to be illegal, but
70
00:05:04.750 --> 00:05:08.740
the two music groups find a way
around this when they join a group of
71
00:05:08.779 --> 00:05:14.139
aliens called super over seven viral Hologram
and start performing together, showing the galaxy
72
00:05:14.220 --> 00:05:25.449
that their music cannot be silence.
It's a really fun music video and I'll
73
00:05:25.449 --> 00:05:27.769
put a link in the show notes
you can go check it out. This
74
00:05:27.930 --> 00:05:30.449
song has been a huge success for
both cold play and bets, with thirty
75
00:05:30.449 --> 00:05:34.050
eight million streams on spotify at the
time of recording this and the number one
76
00:05:34.089 --> 00:05:39.480
trending music video on Youtube. Both
groups have had huge success in their own
77
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.800
right before recording this song, breaking
records and releasing heaps of chart topping hits,
78
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.680
and I think it's cool that they
can release a song that brings together
79
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.990
their own unique sounds while staying true
to what they're completely different. Fan Bases
80
00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:55.589
Know and love them for. A
really nice quote published on distractify said the
81
00:05:55.709 --> 00:05:59.949
new collaborative effort from the too music
giants stands as testament to the notion that,
82
00:06:00.069 --> 00:06:03.029
no matter what cultural divides keep people
apart, anyone can come together over
83
00:06:03.149 --> 00:06:08.100
a love of genuinely good music.
Back to the top songs this week,
84
00:06:08.180 --> 00:06:11.980
the fourth most stream song is way
too sexy by drake, which was released
85
00:06:11.980 --> 00:06:15.379
on his album certified lover boy about
a month ago. This song is here
86
00:06:15.500 --> 00:06:18.089
a hundred and five million streams on
spotify and the music video has thirty eight
87
00:06:18.170 --> 00:06:23.089
million views and, most notably,
features a sample from right said Fred's early
88
00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:30.050
s hit I'm too sexy. Yeah, well, to safety, but it
89
00:06:30.129 --> 00:06:33.040
is, sir, to safety for
you. The music videos purposely corny and
90
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:38.160
has as the rest of Drake's album
received pretty mixed reviews, but despite that,
91
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:42.160
no one can deny that the song
has had huge commercial success and it's
92
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.319
probably going to be a DJ's go
to Bango when clubs reopen. The fifth
93
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:48.790
most Dream Song this week is bad
habits by Ed Shearing, which is currently
94
00:06:48.790 --> 00:06:53.430
number three on the global two hundred
and is now spent thirteen weeks on the
95
00:06:53.470 --> 00:06:59.910
chart with half a billion streams on
spotify. It's Lee to nice car the
96
00:07:00.149 --> 00:07:03.699
stations, they're the strange. On
Wednesday, the six of October, we
97
00:07:03.819 --> 00:07:09.139
have Tom McClary's birthday, who was
the lead guitarist in the American funk soul
98
00:07:09.220 --> 00:07:13.300
band commodores. And No, I'm
not sorry for talking about soul music again,
99
00:07:13.740 --> 00:07:15.490
but I will try harden next week
to increase a variety of jhenres I
100
00:07:15.610 --> 00:07:21.009
discussed the six man band performed when
two music groups got together from Tuskegee University
101
00:07:21.050 --> 00:07:25.689
in nineteen sixty eight and when they
couldn't decide on a name, they opened
102
00:07:25.730 --> 00:07:29.689
a dictionary and pointed a random word, obviously being commodores. And back in
103
00:07:29.730 --> 00:07:32.439
the late s commodores actually referred to
a ranking in the US Navy. So
104
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.720
who would have thought that by the
twenty one century it would have resembled such
105
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:41.800
an important part of Ozi culture,
the frequently lowered and very versatile holding commodore
106
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:45.910
the band had rotating members for about
twenty years, but they were at their
107
00:07:46.029 --> 00:07:49.149
peak in the late s and early
s when the American funk soul singer and
108
00:07:49.230 --> 00:07:54.670
Songwriter Lionel Ritchie was their lead singer. commodorees caught the public eye when they
109
00:07:54.670 --> 00:07:58.149
were on tour with the Jackson five
and they signed on to motown records in
110
00:07:58.470 --> 00:08:03.139
nineteen seventy two. They went on
to release fourteen albums in just under twenty
111
00:08:03.220 --> 00:08:07.060
years, with her song easy being
the group's biggest track, hitting number four
112
00:08:07.100 --> 00:08:18.089
in the US. Easy was written
by Lionel Ritchie and in the song he
113
00:08:18.170 --> 00:08:20.730
sings about giving up on a relationship
because it's not doing him any good and
114
00:08:20.889 --> 00:08:24.329
after breaking up, he finally feels
easy, like a Sunday morning. And
115
00:08:24.889 --> 00:08:28.000
you might be thinking, well,
Sunday mornings aren't often that easy, but
116
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:31.320
this notion, linel said, applies
to anyone who lives in a small southern
117
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:37.360
town where everything shuts by thirty PM. LINEL was from Tuska Jean, Alabama,
118
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.360
and he said there's no such thing
as a for in the morning party.
119
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:50.230
Yeah, yeah, this makes you
know. Saying my song of the
120
00:08:50.269 --> 00:08:52.870
week has no relation to anything in
this episode whatsoever, but it is a
121
00:08:52.990 --> 00:08:58.299
classic crowd pleasing, lockdown, Spirit
lifting, bloody ripper of a song that
122
00:08:58.460 --> 00:09:01.980
will help us manifest being able to
travel overseas because it's called all around the
123
00:09:01.019 --> 00:09:05.340
world by Diddy, biggie smalls and
maze. Okay, let's go back to
124
00:09:05.379 --> 00:09:07.379
one thousand nine hundred and ninety seven, when puff daddy was at the top
125
00:09:07.419 --> 00:09:11.450
of the rap game and biggie smalls
had tragically been murdered in April that year.
126
00:09:11.929 --> 00:09:16.210
After biggie's death, puff daddy released
the song around the world on his
127
00:09:16.330 --> 00:09:20.409
album no way out did he,
also known as puff daddy or Shawn Combs,
128
00:09:20.649 --> 00:09:24.009
was a high powered music executive and
the head of a record label called
129
00:09:24.090 --> 00:09:26.000
bad boy, which is now owned
by Sony, and was one of the
130
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.960
biggest rappers in the world through the
late s and early s. After biggie's
131
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.039
death, the album no way out
had to be redone. It couldn't be
132
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.750
this whole Party album without speaking to
the impact biggie's death had had on his
133
00:09:37.870 --> 00:09:41.870
close friends did. He said the
album's more serious now than when I first
134
00:09:41.950 --> 00:09:45.950
got into it. There are still
days when I just wake up and feel
135
00:09:45.990 --> 00:09:48.830
like I don't want to do this
anymore, but it's because come a situation
136
00:09:48.950 --> 00:09:50.509
in which I have no choice.
This is what I do. I have
137
00:09:50.669 --> 00:09:54.340
no way out. When it was
released in July, one thousand nine hundred
138
00:09:54.379 --> 00:09:56.139
ninety seven, that album debut,
is number one on the billboard, two
139
00:09:56.139 --> 00:10:01.100
hundred, defeating the rival album utan
forever by the group Utan clan. In
140
00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:05.580
the song around the world, Biggie
Puff, daddy and Mace rap about going
141
00:10:05.700 --> 00:10:09.610
from living in a one bedroom with
big dreams to driving a Mercedes and having
142
00:10:09.610 --> 00:10:13.809
rock tons of gold. After massive
success in the hip hop industry, TIMES
143
00:10:13.929 --> 00:10:18.049
gonna F roll the way you want
to roll. An it's samples David Bowie's
144
00:10:18.049 --> 00:10:28.639
let's dance, another s classic,
and Lisa stands fields song all around the
145
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:37.509
world. No way out. One
a Grammy Award for the best rap album
146
00:10:37.750 --> 00:10:39.789
and the success showed did his strength
to not give up in the face of
147
00:10:39.830 --> 00:10:43.350
adversity but to push through and keep
going, making one thousand nine hundred and
148
00:10:43.350 --> 00:10:46.149
ninety seven one of the most successful
years of his career. But one of
149
00:10:46.190 --> 00:10:50.940
the hardest to go through personally.
That is all for stream state this week,
150
00:10:50.059 --> 00:10:54.700
go and have a listen to all
around the world while manifesting international travel.

Check it out in start and have
a bloody ripper week and I'll see you

00:11:01.059 --> 00:11:01.580
next Monday.
1
00:00:07.990 --> 00:00:11.949
Hey, welcome to stream state,
your weekly podcast all about the state of
2
00:00:11.990 --> 00:00:15.429
music and streaming. My name is
Carla, and here's your update on the
3
00:00:15.509 --> 00:00:19.309
top songs, artists and music videos
of the week across the streaming platforms we
4
00:00:19.510 --> 00:00:23.379
love to use. Today we're starting
off the episode in the same way that
5
00:00:23.460 --> 00:00:27.940
we've started every single episode of stream
state so far, with stay by the
6
00:00:27.980 --> 00:00:32.820
kid the Roy, featuring Justin Bieber. This song from Sydney's record breaking eighteen
7
00:00:32.859 --> 00:00:36.490
year old indigenous music artist the kid
Le Roy, has been the number one
8
00:00:36.530 --> 00:00:40.649
song in the world for nine weeks
straight now. Stay has received seven hundred
9
00:00:40.729 --> 00:00:44.649
sixty million streams on spotify, while
on its way to joining the billions club,
10
00:00:44.929 --> 00:00:48.130
and the sound has been used in
six and a half million videos on
11
00:00:48.289 --> 00:00:54.000
tick tock and you just you say
it's right. Wait, come a wait.
12
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:57.679
This week news also came out that
the kid the Roy is changing management
13
00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:00.280
teams, leaving Scoota Braun, who
still manages Justin Bieber, and heading to
14
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.150
Adam Leeber's new management company, rebel, where he'll join the likes of miley
15
00:01:04.230 --> 00:01:08.430
Cyrus and little NAS x. The
second song this week is industry baby by
16
00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:11.510
a little NAS x, featuring Jack
Harlow, and the song has moved from
17
00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:15.109
fifth place on the global two hundred
to number two, being pushed up by
18
00:01:15.109 --> 00:01:19.260
the release of little NAS's album Montero. It was a really interesting interview that
19
00:01:19.340 --> 00:01:23.099
came out this week on inside with
one of the producers of the song,
20
00:01:23.379 --> 00:01:26.340
twenty four year old jazz musician Nik
Lei, who produced the horn loops for
21
00:01:26.420 --> 00:01:30.900
industry baby. The main producer of
the song, Denzel Baptist and David Byral,
22
00:01:30.939 --> 00:01:34.569
who make up the Jewey take a
day trip, went to the same
23
00:01:34.689 --> 00:01:38.569
college as Nick Lei's manager, who
put them in contact. So basically the
24
00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:42.049
story is little NASAX was looking for
some trombone loops for the song industry baby,
25
00:01:42.250 --> 00:01:45.969
and Nick happened to have a folder
full of Horn loops that he'd made
26
00:01:45.969 --> 00:01:49.280
during the pandemic. Once he sent
them over and Little Nas was happy with
27
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.840
what they sounded like, Denzel reached
out again, asking him to make a
28
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:56.560
fresh one that sounded like a king
entering a stadium, and he sent over
29
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:10.270
this scene from Shrek to as a
reference. Enough, I magine nick got
30
00:02:10.310 --> 00:02:15.229
the job done and that Shrek reference
was one that inspired the horns in industry
31
00:02:15.270 --> 00:02:25.020
baby. That's a pretty fun fact. I reckon a Liuna's used to play
32
00:02:25.020 --> 00:02:28.819
the trumpet in High School and in
an interview with take a day trip,
33
00:02:28.860 --> 00:02:31.530
they said that it was something can
really gravitated towards. They said when we
34
00:02:31.689 --> 00:02:36.729
use the loop in industry. Baby, he immediately snapped into full inspiration mode
35
00:02:36.729 --> 00:02:39.930
and essentially freestyl the entire song.
The third most stream song this week,
36
00:02:40.009 --> 00:02:45.080
bought two polar opposite music groups together
who are both huge in their own right,
37
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:50.280
the British pop rock band cold play
and the globally renowned kpop group bets,
38
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:53.719
release their Song My universe on the
twenty four of September and then gifted
39
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:58.750
us with the colorful, cosmic,
well produced music video about a week later.
40
00:02:59.270 --> 00:03:02.789
My Universe is cold plays third single
released from their upcoming night studio album
41
00:03:02.949 --> 00:03:07.349
music of the spheres, which is
set to come out on October fifteen.
42
00:03:07.150 --> 00:03:12.710
The collaboration between bets and cold play
started earlier this year in February, when
43
00:03:12.789 --> 00:03:16.819
bts covered cold plays fix you on
MTV unplugged, which is really a beautiful
44
00:03:16.860 --> 00:03:25.659
cover, I must say, and
then cold play responded to this on twitter,
45
00:03:25.740 --> 00:03:30.090
showing their love for the cover.
This got fans of both cold playing
46
00:03:30.169 --> 00:03:34.969
bts very hopeful for a potential collaboration
between the two groups. Then a couple
47
00:03:35.009 --> 00:03:38.650
of months later, in April this
year, rumors started swirling when the lead
48
00:03:38.729 --> 00:03:42.080
singer of cold play, Chris Martin, was spotted at an airport in South
49
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.879
Korea. UNBEKNOWNST to fans, Chris
was there to record the chorus of my
50
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:50.919
universe with bets. During an interview
about cold plays first release, higher power,
51
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.840
from the upcoming album, Chris address
the rumors, saying I love them
52
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:57.509
a lot and so if the right
song came along, I wouldn't ever say
53
00:03:57.550 --> 00:04:00.430
no. This did absolutely nothing to
squash the rumors that a collaboration might be
54
00:04:00.550 --> 00:04:04.949
in the works. Then the song
was officially announced on the thirteen of September
55
00:04:05.310 --> 00:04:09.949
and in a following interview on the
Cali Clerks and show, Chris Martin said
56
00:04:10.219 --> 00:04:13.819
we really don't believe in any boundaries
or separation of anything really, and so
57
00:04:13.979 --> 00:04:16.540
the song my universe is about someone
being told they can't love a certain other
58
00:04:16.620 --> 00:04:18.939
person, or can't be with this
race, or they can't be gay,
59
00:04:19.259 --> 00:04:21.740
whatever it might be, and we
thought it would be good to sing this
60
00:04:21.899 --> 00:04:26.490
with bts, because maybe we're not
supposed to be together, and it turned
61
00:04:26.490 --> 00:04:30.209
out to be one of the most
fun things ever. My Universe is an
62
00:04:30.250 --> 00:04:33.449
uplifting pop rock song that uses cosmic
analogies to sing about love and all the
63
00:04:33.529 --> 00:04:39.319
positive and sometimes difficult aspects that come
with being with someone that you consider to
64
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:44.240
be your universe. After Chriss,
chorus rm from bts reflects on the idea
65
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.399
of not being able to be with
someone you care about because of your differences.
66
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.759
The intergalactic music video is directed by
Dave Myers, who was also the
67
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:56.589
man behind edge Shearon's music video for
bad habits and also doja Kats and Sowedi's
68
00:04:56.670 --> 00:05:00.230
best friend, and the music video
is about to superstar music groups who are
69
00:05:00.269 --> 00:05:04.670
exploring the galaxy of the spheres,
when music happens to be illegal, but
70
00:05:04.750 --> 00:05:08.740
the two music groups find a way
around this when they join a group of
71
00:05:08.779 --> 00:05:14.139
aliens called super over seven viral Hologram
and start performing together, showing the galaxy
72
00:05:14.220 --> 00:05:25.449
that their music cannot be silence.
It's a really fun music video and I'll
73
00:05:25.449 --> 00:05:27.769
put a link in the show notes
you can go check it out. This
74
00:05:27.930 --> 00:05:30.449
song has been a huge success for
both cold play and bets, with thirty
75
00:05:30.449 --> 00:05:34.050
eight million streams on spotify at the
time of recording this and the number one
76
00:05:34.089 --> 00:05:39.480
trending music video on Youtube. Both
groups have had huge success in their own
77
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.800
right before recording this song, breaking
records and releasing heaps of chart topping hits,
78
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.680
and I think it's cool that they
can release a song that brings together
79
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.990
their own unique sounds while staying true
to what they're completely different. Fan Bases
80
00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:55.589
Know and love them for. A
really nice quote published on distractify said the
81
00:05:55.709 --> 00:05:59.949
new collaborative effort from the too music
giants stands as testament to the notion that,
82
00:06:00.069 --> 00:06:03.029
no matter what cultural divides keep people
apart, anyone can come together over
83
00:06:03.149 --> 00:06:08.100
a love of genuinely good music.
Back to the top songs this week,
84
00:06:08.180 --> 00:06:11.980
the fourth most stream song is way
too sexy by drake, which was released
85
00:06:11.980 --> 00:06:15.379
on his album certified lover boy about
a month ago. This song is here
86
00:06:15.500 --> 00:06:18.089
a hundred and five million streams on
spotify and the music video has thirty eight
87
00:06:18.170 --> 00:06:23.089
million views and, most notably,
features a sample from right said Fred's early
88
00:06:23.529 --> 00:06:30.050
s hit I'm too sexy. Yeah, well, to safety, but it
89
00:06:30.129 --> 00:06:33.040
is, sir, to safety for
you. The music videos purposely corny and
90
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:38.160
has as the rest of Drake's album
received pretty mixed reviews, but despite that,
91
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:42.160
no one can deny that the song
has had huge commercial success and it's
92
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.319
probably going to be a DJ's go
to Bango when clubs reopen. The fifth
93
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:48.790
most Dream Song this week is bad
habits by Ed Shearing, which is currently
94
00:06:48.790 --> 00:06:53.430
number three on the global two hundred
and is now spent thirteen weeks on the
95
00:06:53.470 --> 00:06:59.910
chart with half a billion streams on
spotify. It's Lee to nice car the
96
00:07:00.149 --> 00:07:03.699
stations, they're the strange. On
Wednesday, the six of October, we
97
00:07:03.819 --> 00:07:09.139
have Tom McClary's birthday, who was
the lead guitarist in the American funk soul
98
00:07:09.220 --> 00:07:13.300
band commodores. And No, I'm
not sorry for talking about soul music again,
99
00:07:13.740 --> 00:07:15.490
but I will try harden next week
to increase a variety of jhenres I
100
00:07:15.610 --> 00:07:21.009
discussed the six man band performed when
two music groups got together from Tuskegee University
101
00:07:21.050 --> 00:07:25.689
in nineteen sixty eight and when they
couldn't decide on a name, they opened
102
00:07:25.730 --> 00:07:29.689
a dictionary and pointed a random word, obviously being commodores. And back in
103
00:07:29.730 --> 00:07:32.439
the late s commodores actually referred to
a ranking in the US Navy. So
104
00:07:32.480 --> 00:07:35.720
who would have thought that by the
twenty one century it would have resembled such
105
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:41.800
an important part of Ozi culture,
the frequently lowered and very versatile holding commodore
106
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:45.910
the band had rotating members for about
twenty years, but they were at their
107
00:07:46.029 --> 00:07:49.149
peak in the late s and early
s when the American funk soul singer and
108
00:07:49.230 --> 00:07:54.670
Songwriter Lionel Ritchie was their lead singer. commodorees caught the public eye when they
109
00:07:54.670 --> 00:07:58.149
were on tour with the Jackson five
and they signed on to motown records in
110
00:07:58.470 --> 00:08:03.139
nineteen seventy two. They went on
to release fourteen albums in just under twenty
111
00:08:03.220 --> 00:08:07.060
years, with her song easy being
the group's biggest track, hitting number four
112
00:08:07.100 --> 00:08:18.089
in the US. Easy was written
by Lionel Ritchie and in the song he
113
00:08:18.170 --> 00:08:20.730
sings about giving up on a relationship
because it's not doing him any good and
114
00:08:20.889 --> 00:08:24.329
after breaking up, he finally feels
easy, like a Sunday morning. And
115
00:08:24.889 --> 00:08:28.000
you might be thinking, well,
Sunday mornings aren't often that easy, but
116
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:31.320
this notion, linel said, applies
to anyone who lives in a small southern
117
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:37.360
town where everything shuts by thirty PM. LINEL was from Tuska Jean, Alabama,
118
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:39.360
and he said there's no such thing
as a for in the morning party.
119
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:50.230
Yeah, yeah, this makes you
know. Saying my song of the
120
00:08:50.269 --> 00:08:52.870
week has no relation to anything in
this episode whatsoever, but it is a
121
00:08:52.990 --> 00:08:58.299
classic crowd pleasing, lockdown, Spirit
lifting, bloody ripper of a song that
122
00:08:58.460 --> 00:09:01.980
will help us manifest being able to
travel overseas because it's called all around the
123
00:09:01.019 --> 00:09:05.340
world by Diddy, biggie smalls and
maze. Okay, let's go back to
124
00:09:05.379 --> 00:09:07.379
one thousand nine hundred and ninety seven, when puff daddy was at the top
125
00:09:07.419 --> 00:09:11.450
of the rap game and biggie smalls
had tragically been murdered in April that year.
126
00:09:11.929 --> 00:09:16.210
After biggie's death, puff daddy released
the song around the world on his
127
00:09:16.330 --> 00:09:20.409
album no way out did he,
also known as puff daddy or Shawn Combs,
128
00:09:20.649 --> 00:09:24.009
was a high powered music executive and
the head of a record label called
129
00:09:24.090 --> 00:09:26.000
bad boy, which is now owned
by Sony, and was one of the
130
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.960
biggest rappers in the world through the
late s and early s. After biggie's
131
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.039
death, the album no way out
had to be redone. It couldn't be
132
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.750
this whole Party album without speaking to
the impact biggie's death had had on his
133
00:09:37.870 --> 00:09:41.870
close friends did. He said the
album's more serious now than when I first
134
00:09:41.950 --> 00:09:45.950
got into it. There are still
days when I just wake up and feel
135
00:09:45.990 --> 00:09:48.830
like I don't want to do this
anymore, but it's because come a situation
136
00:09:48.950 --> 00:09:50.509
in which I have no choice.
This is what I do. I have
137
00:09:50.669 --> 00:09:54.340
no way out. When it was
released in July, one thousand nine hundred
138
00:09:54.379 --> 00:09:56.139
ninety seven, that album debut,
is number one on the billboard, two
139
00:09:56.139 --> 00:10:01.100
hundred, defeating the rival album utan
forever by the group Utan clan. In
140
00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:05.580
the song around the world, Biggie
Puff, daddy and Mace rap about going
141
00:10:05.700 --> 00:10:09.610
from living in a one bedroom with
big dreams to driving a Mercedes and having
142
00:10:09.610 --> 00:10:13.809
rock tons of gold. After massive
success in the hip hop industry, TIMES
143
00:10:13.929 --> 00:10:18.049
gonna F roll the way you want
to roll. An it's samples David Bowie's
144
00:10:18.049 --> 00:10:28.639
let's dance, another s classic,
and Lisa stands fields song all around the
145
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:37.509
world. No way out. One
a Grammy Award for the best rap album
146
00:10:37.750 --> 00:10:39.789
and the success showed did his strength
to not give up in the face of
147
00:10:39.830 --> 00:10:43.350
adversity but to push through and keep
going, making one thousand nine hundred and
148
00:10:43.350 --> 00:10:46.149
ninety seven one of the most successful
years of his career. But one of
149
