January's Top 40 Singles poll saw apparently everyone's favourite indie-pop stalwarts Belle & Sebastian clinch the top spot with 17 ticks and 54.8% of the vote, with Jose Gonzales, Mylo ft. Freeform Five and Will Young all languishing in joint second place with 13 ticks each. A traditionally weak month there, but things are starting to hot up a little in February, maybe?

But there have only ever actually been about 10 crunk'n'b singles, like, ever!

I mean yeah it DOES apply, usually when the artist in question is not being crunk'n'b enough - ie something like Amerie's 'Touch' works as a generic crunk'n'b setpiece so well because it ticks every genre box, whereas, I dunno, 'Gotta Be You' by the Sugababes is clearly based on crunk'n'b but doesn't manage the signifiers well enough? (though I think 'Gotta Be You' works very well in other ways)
