Lola Young’s ‘Messy’ hits number one

This Brit nominated singer songwriter has had an extraordinary start to the year celebrating her first number one hit with her single Messy.

Lola Young was an amazing guest on the Graham Norton show and invited to perform he number one hit.

She says: her songs are a real as it gets.

The south London singer’s unflinchingly honest hit Messy reached the top in the UK after a two-month climb. And Lola’s been nominated for a Brit Award. Now she’s made a breakthrough, this could be her year.

The 24-year-old is the first current British artist to have a UK number one since Chase and Status and Stormzy in August, the youngest to do so since Dave in 2022, and the youngest British woman to score a chart-topper since Dua Lipa in 2017.

Her number one came a day after Lola nominated for best pop act at the Brit Awards.

“The response has been amazing and it’s been really exciting to see all the love that Messy has been receiving,” says Young after reconnecting the call.

“I love the song, it’s a song I wrote that’s really personal and really important to me. So I’m really happy that it’s resonating so much.”
