The virtual band Gorillaz is the brainchild of musician Damon Albarn and he is back with the band's eighth album, Cracker Island. As usual it is jammed packed with guest appearances and Damon tells us all about it.

We also hear from singer Adam Lambert. Best known as the lead singer of the band Queen, he is back with his fifth solo album, which sees him tackling some of his favourite songs.

There is music from Grace Abrams, Callum Beattie, Slow Readers Club, Nathan Dawe and The Weeknd who has teamed up with Ariana Grande.

As usual we feature all of the top five most popular songs in the UK and find out if Miley Cyrus is number one for a seventh week with her song Flowers.
