Gearing up for money moves acts as the driving force behind âBig Plays.â With their pockets going from Wiz Khalifa to Rick Ross, Patrick and McFly know they need to keep the energy high. Gassing themselves up on their verses gives them the fuel to burst on the chorus, a rousing victory lap set over a humble yet driving beat. The visuals, set in sunny Los Angeles, lets Patrick show off his newfound strength. He pulls luxury cars on his backside and thrusts barbells into the air one-handed, physical demonstrations of the many feats heâs now capable of.

Aaron Bishop selects his highlights from the UK underground scene including projects and singles from names such as DC, Central Cee, M1llionz and Enny
It is a well-known fact that London is the birthplace of grime and UK drill. For years London artists have served as the gatekeepers of the scene and the main beneficiaries of the music industry and all it has to offer – money included.
But more recently we’ve seen a changing of the tide. Over the last five years we’ve seen the likes of Manchester’s Bugzy Malone and Aitch, Northampton’s Slowthai, Nottingham’s Young T & Bugsey and Coventry’s Pa Salieu all achieve monumental success, both in the UK and overseas and that’s only a few examples.

If you re looking for the Ultimate Banger or Hottest Record in the World - you ve come to the wrong place.
Instead, think tingles, soothing soundscapes and music to help you unwind as Radio 1 launches its new Relax stream on BBC Sounds.
The idea is to help listeners deal with life s challenges - especially after the tough times many of us have had throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
It s also an attempt to stay relevant to younger audiences. The challenges of the last year have meant more young people than ever are seeking out content centred around well-being and relaxation, says Radio 1 chief Aled Haydn Jones.

Last year I became a staunch Radio 1 listener again for the first time since my teens. I needed the ceaselessly refreshing joy of pop music during the pandemic, but also the pastoral bump on the shoulder from its presenters looking out for audiences considerably younger than me: the pure, giddy fun of phone-ins and running jokes, the gentle mood-guardrails and circumspect parcelling out of the dayâs events on Newsbeat. It frequently made me sentimental, and still does: just this week I had a moment at a sunny roundabout as Greg James played the new Wolf Alice song. Its entire presenter cohort deserves to join the national role call of pandemic heroes â and in particular Annie Mac, who yesterday announced that she was leaving the station after 17 years.
