Sidetracked with Olly Alexander

Tyler, the Creator's New Music Monday, Eurovision lessons and Liam Payne's legacy.

Olly Alexander joins Nick to discuss meeting Rihanna, the highs and lows of Eurovision and why he wants to ‘do a Kate Bush’. They also pay tribute to Liam Payne and reflect on the legacy he has left behind. Elsewhere, Tyler, The Creator is bucking the trend by releasing new music on Mondays - should other artist’s lean into this or does New Music Friday serve a purpose? Plus, Charli XCX’s Brat has finally gone to Number 1 (sorry James Blunt), Olly and Nick get their head around the hidden lyrics in Rihanna’s ‘SOS’ and the excitement for new Lady Gaga is palpable.
