Jesus Christ Charli XCX’s new record, ‘how i’m feeling now’ is an absolute MASTERPIECE. Her magnum opus. Personal highlights: Anthems, Party 4 U, the bulldozing album-opener Pink Diamond and of course the two singles Claws and Forever. What a ride listening to it was... VROOM VROOM indeed.

Harry Styles’ label could have ceased this opportunity of low album sales and discounted Fine Line to £3.99 to finally snatch that U.K. number one. The album feels much bigger than its number 3 peak...

I hope Dua can at least clear the 7k mark.. will make the blow softer if she’s at least within the same thousandth as Blossoms sales for lowest-album sales for a NO.1 album.

Sadly it looks like Dua Lipa will hold the unwanted record of the lowest-weekly sales for a U.K. NO.1 album; Ms.Lipa needs to achieve over 7,948 sales to not claim the undesired title... Turns out my prediction of Rockstar claiming the number-one spot has proven true. Although I didn’t expect Drake to be in the runner-up position flanked by Ari/Bieb and the aforementioned Rockstar. The sales between 3 and 4 are very tight to I expect Ari/Bieb to finish in a very unexpected fourth place. Shocking as I thought this song based on name alone would be a surefire number one. I guess neither Bieber or Ariana have that star power we initially thought they did... Let’s hope Gaga/Ari can fare better in a fortnight.

Also Stuck With U has clicked with me today so hoping it gets the number one this week; maybe Scooter can do some magic?

Charli XCX should be able to muster up 2-3k of sales? Her fanbase or not that robust but surely they can collectively stream enough for 2-3k worth of chart sales (enough to get her a top-ten).

With album sales this low, Charli XCX is all but guaranteed a top-ten debut for her album released this Friday. I wonder how much Lady Gaga will be debut with in a few weeks. Anyone know what Joanne opened with?

Based on the current sales trajectory, this is my final prediction for Friday. Extra weighting has been given to Grande & Bieber as they are doing well on YouTube. 1. DaBaby’s Rockstar with 38,800 sales 2. Grande & Bieber with 36,800 sales 3. Drake’s Toosie with 35,900 sales Could be close but I think DaBaby is all but guaranteed his first UK NO.1- interesting that this track has come out of the woodwork considering we initially thought it would be a battle between Grande/Bieber and Drake.

Looks like it’s more of a battle between DaBaby and Drake considering Ariana and Bieber are free falling.

Also considering how poor album sales are, do you think Charli XCX has a high chance of scoring her first top-ten album next week? Her last album opened with around 4K I believe.

Thankfully Scooter Brauns farce of a label will not be adding another number one to their catalogue after Drake overtakes the travesty that is ‘Stuck With U’’.

I would imagine that tomorrow’s anticipated PM’s statement will eclipse the 23/3 rating.

Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia has sold 90,574 copies in the U.K. as of 8/5/20. Miss Lipa’s sophomore effort should be certified GOLD by next week or the week after; this will have been achieved in just 7/8 weeks!

Highly unlikely that will happen considering the Grande/Bieber duet is out.

Stuck With U isn’t sticking with me!

Is this the most urban top-ten (bar TLT) that we’ve ever had?

Doja Cat getting a top-two hit... we love to see it!

It’s a shame Break My Heart isn’t doing as well as Lipa’s previous singles :/

I wonder how far Lipa’s Physical and Dont Start Now have fallen? :(

Do you think the new Gaga and Ariana track released in a fortnight will be insta-added to the A-List?

Apologies, I don't know why it posted my reply so many times.

Stuck With You is a guaranteed number one albeit with a song no one can extol.
