Doechii Hits No. 1 For The First Time On Several Charts
Doechii just keeps getting bigger, seemingly by the day, and Alligator Bites Never Heal is growing by leaps and bounds on the charts. The rising hip-hop superstar's mixtape, which dropped in August 2024, has only picked up steam since its release. Months after winning the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album, the project is still reaching new heights, and this frame, it surges back onto several U.K. rankings – even leading the charge on several rosters.
Alligator Bites Never Heal appears on five U.K. music charts. It didn't land on any of them just a few days ago, though it's also not new to any of the lists. Doechii doesn't just reclaim space on these tallies — she manages a new career best on every single one where her breakout effort can now be found.
Among the five tallies where Alligator Bites Never Heal reappears, two stand out above the rest. This week, the mixtape hits No. 1 on both the Official Vinyl Albums and the Official Hip-Hop and R&B Albums charts. These wins mark Doechii's first-ever No. 1 placements on albums rosters in the U.K.
As if two No. 1s weren't enough, Doechii also earns a pair of top 10 appearances on other tallies. Alligator Bites Never Heal reenters the Official Physical Albums chart at No. 4. Meanwhile, it settles at No. 5 on the Official Albums Sales roster. Both placements are new personal bests for the rapper.
Over on the U.K.'s most competitive album ranking, the Official Albums chart, which blends sales and streaming data, Alligator Bites Never Heal also scores a major new win. The Grammy-winning mixtape reenters at No. 40, and this week marks the first time it's cracked the top 40.
While Alligator Bites Never Heal continues climbing, the set's big single "Denial Is a River' remains on four U.K. charts, helping keep attention focused on the Grammy winner's current era. However, it's an older tune — "Anxiety" — that's managing an even bigger resurgence.
Originally released as a standalone single years ago, "Anxiety" recently went viral, and a brand new music video Doechii dropped to capitalize on its newfound popularity is helping it continue to soar. The Gotye-sampling track is truly thriving in the U.K., appearing on five separate tallies this frame. It even debuts on one and sits comfortably inside the top 10 on four others.

Grammy-winning artist Victoria Monét says she was encouraged to have an abortion after unexpected pregnancy
R&B singer-and-songwriter Victoria Monét revealed she was pressured to have an abortion after learning she was pregnant with her daughter, during an appearance on former First Lady Michelle Obama's podcast on Wednesday. Monét, who won Grammys in 2024 for best new artist, best R&B album and best engineered album, shared about how motherhood impacted her career after giving birth to her daughter Hazel in 2021. Advertisement Not everyone in her professional circle was supportive of her pregnancy, she recalled. The singer explained it was difficult to share the celebratory news because she understood it might not be received well by her business associates. 'So when I got pregnant, I was an independent artist. I was working with this company called Platoon working out of the UK. And when you're an artist, though you're a human, you're technically the business,' Monét said on the podcast. 'So, to have to explain to someone who is a partner in your business that your business may slow down because of pregnancy, is difficult, but it's also something that you're supposed to feel celebratory about.' Advertisement Platoon is a London-based music distribution and creative services company which helps boost independent artists before they sign deals with major labels. After breaking the news to her business partner over Zoom, Monét said she was given a presentation telling her how difficult and expensive it was to raise a child. 3 Victoria Monet accepting the Grammy Award for Best New Artist.

'And the finale of the presentation was, what's the rush? So, it felt like an encouragement to get an abortion. So that was really, really hurtful,' she shared. 3 Monét explained how people close in her professional circle were not supportive of her carrying on her pregnancy.

She didn't believe the person meant to 'harm' her but wanted her to understand that having a child was a 'big decision' that would impact her career. 3 Victoria Monet holding three Grammy Awards on Feb. 4, 2024.

'She's been the biggest blessing,' Monét said of her daughter. 'I had these preconceived notions that having a child would suspend my career or make things even more difficult, but God just was like, 'nope,' but it's been so fun.'

Jazz legend Chuck Mangione, known for ‘Feels So Good,' dies at 84
Two-time Grammy Award-winning musician Chuck Mangione, who achieved international success in 1977 with his jazz-flavored single "Feels So Good" and later became a voice actor on the animated TV comedy "King of the Hill," has died. He was 84. Mangione died at his home in Rochester, New York, on Tuesday in his sleep, said his attorney, Peter S. Matorin of Beldock Levine & Hoffman LLP. The musician had been retired since 2015. Perhaps his biggest hit, "Feels So Good," is a staple on most smooth-jazz radio stations and has been called one of the most recognized melodies since "Michelle" by the Beatles. It hit No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the top of the Billboard adult contemporary chart. "It identified for a lot of people a song with an artist, even though I had a pretty strong base audience that kept us out there touring as often as we wanted to, that song just topped out there and took it to a whole other level," Mangione told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 2008. He followed that hit with "Give It All You Got," commissioned for the 1980 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, and he performed it at the closing ceremony. Mangione, a flügelhorn and trumpet player and jazz composer, released more than 30 albums during a career in which he built a sizable following after recording several albums, doing all the writing. He won his first Grammy Award in 1977 for his album "Bellavia," which was named in honor of his mother. Another album, "Friends and Love," was also Grammy-nominated, and he earned a best original score Golden Globe nomination and a second Grammy for the movie "The Children of Sanchez." Mangione introduced himself to a new audience when he appeared on the first several seasons of "King of the Hill," appearing as a commercial spokesman for Mega Lo Mart, where "shopping feels so good." Mangione, brother of jazz pianist Gap Mangione, with whom he partnered in The Jazz Brothers, started his career as a bebop jazz musician heavily inspired by Dizzy Gillespie. "He was also one of the first musicians I saw who had a rapport with the audience by just telling the audience what he was going to play and who was in his band," Mangione told the Post-Gazette. Mangione earned a Bachelor's degree from the Eastman School of Music, where he would eventually return as director of the school's jazz ensemble, and left home to play with Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He donated his signature brown felt hat and the score of his Grammy-winning single "Feels So Good," as well as albums, songbooks and other ephemera from his long and illustrious career to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in 2009.
