Official Charts Report

 

Eminem looks set to score a second consecutive week at Number 1 with Houdini. The first track lifted from the rapper’s upcoming 12th studio album The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce), Houdini could become Eminem’s longest-running chart-topper in the UK.

 

Virginia country star Shaboozey’s breakout hit A Bar Song (Tipsy) shows no sign of slowing down, tracking to lift one to its previous peak (3).

 

Billie Eilish’s HIT ME HARD AND SOFT cut BIRDS OF A FEATHER is on the ascent midweek, hoping to claim a brand-new peak this Friday (4).

 

Following her recent five-week stint at Number 1 with Espresso, Sabrina Carpenter is expected to bag this week’s highest new entry with Please Please Please (5). The Jack Antonoff-produced track, lifted from recently announced sixth LP Short N’ Sweet, could earn Sabrina her second UK Top 10 single.

 

RAYE’s genre-bending seven-minute social commentary Genesis. is on course to become the South London singer-songwriter’s 15th Top 40 single, currently predicted to make a Number 12 debut.

Think Raye will struggle to get top 25

 

Albums

 

1. Bon Jovi

2. Taylor Swift

3. Charlie xcx

 

 

I think raye will go 1

 

would be a dream come true but sadly i doubt she'll even scrape top 10 :( hopefully shes sold decent vinyls to grab top 20? ill be happy with top 40 though, she'll be #1 in my personal chart at least lol

What’s driving Birds of a Feather to outperform Lunch when it’s not a single but Lunch is?
It’s the one the public like more. Same as with 1989tv - Taylor pushed slut but the general audience preferred is it over now and that became the hit getting to #1

Lunch has so far peaked higher though - it's too early to tell which one will be the bigger hit in the long run. I suggest "Birds" if it gets proper radio push etc.

 

The Spotify streams are currently 196M vs. 175M

What’s driving Birds of a Feather to outperform Lunch when it’s not a single but Lunch is?

 

BIRDS is becoming one of the biggest viral songs right now. It's #3 on the Tiktok charts in the US.
