"Latest Trends" is the debut single by UK Drill duo A1 x J1. It was originally previewed in late 2020 before being officially released on 4 February 2021. It later found viral popularity on TikTok[1] before reaching a peak of number two on the UK Singles Chart in March 2021 after being remixed with a version featuring Aitch[2] or a version with A Boogie wit da Hoodie.

Composition

The song has been described by GRM Daily as having "a feel-good vibe with its upbeat, guitar-based production" as well as "clever lyrics including pop culture references and Instagram caption worthy lines".[1] The duo also contribute "smooth vocals from A1 on the chorus and his verse" before "J1 comes through with clever wordplay and bars".[3]
