| 7 | LOVE WINS EVERYTIME - McMaster and James | |
| 8 | GOT TO GET IT - Sisqo | |
| 9 | BRING IT ALL TO ME - Blaque | |
| 10 | THE MESSENGER - Tea Party |
Andreas Johnson, New Generation and LFO graduated from here to the main list. Blaque is the only survivor from last month, when they were 8.
All the UK releases look to have missed the boat: Q-Tip and Sisqo are US rappers, Joey Negro an Essex DJ, Taka Boom the sister of Chaka Khan. (Natalie) McMaster and (Andrew) James are a Canadian pairing, and the Tea Party is also from that country.
