Only went silver but Love Myself by Hailee Steinfeld peaked at #180 - not sure I can think of any more off the top of my head

Harry Styles' new album 'Fine Line' is out 13th December.

Liam Payne's debut album is (finally) coming December 6th... #45 peak incoming

As much as I'd love Lana to get it (the album is sensational), I can't see her doing over 25k, and I'd say Tool would be pushing over 30k.

As much as I hate the JP Cooper and Astrid S effort, I'm grateful for any exposure that Astrid S can get, some of her output is absolutely fantastic, particularly 'The First One' which she released recently.

Completely agree, initially thought that delaying the album was a bad move, but if 'Mad Love' continues to gain traction it could really work in her favour.

She's literally never released an album outside of October/November

I think I agree that it'll be around #8 if their streams hold up across the week. I'd welcome them debuting in the top 5 but can't see it unfortunately.

Delighted that Becky Hill is looking to get another hit to her name, she still needs a solo hit though!

I know 'Without Me' took ages to peak, but I thought Halsey might be a little higher by now with 'Nightmare' - I don't expect it to be a hit like 'Without Me' was, it's a bit meh IMHO, but still, has it even cracked the iTunes top 10 at all?

Pleasantly surprised that Marina is still top 10 on iTunes and top 20 on Apple Music. Maybe she won't have a complete and utter disaster this week after all.

Zara hasn't exactly struck gold so far with the new single, has she? Hopefully it rises a bit in the coming weeks. Shame because I think it's a step up from Ruin My Life.

Am I going mad or does anyone else hear any similarities between "Walk Me Home" and Avril's "Head Above Water" :blink:

Ariana has confirmed that her album will be out February 8th.

Future's new album "The Wizrd" is being released January 18th

Meghan Trainor's album is still up for pre-order for January 25th, is there any source regarding it being pushed back to February?

With the longest song title ever conceived 😂

Yes, I can definitely see The Weeknd returning in the first half of the year, especially as he’s already teased that he’s working on new music. I can see Madonna having a similar performing album to Rebel Heart in Q1/Q2 and Rihanna has confirmed her next album will be out in 2019 and can see it performing better than ANTI did.

I agree to an extent, but their album has somewhat underperformed, it hasn’t even been certified silver yet.

Fleur East is releasing her new single "Favourite Thing" on 4th January, it's just gone up for pre-order (didn't even think they were still a thing)

The Chainsmokers new album "Sick Boy" is also out tomorrow, though it'll likely miss the top 40 given the lack of any hits or hype.

It was a very different performance from previous ones though, a bit more stripped back, no Nicki, and you could actually hear the live vocals this time. Definitely suited Strictly better!

First number one album to drop out of the top 40 in week 2 perhaps? Coming for The Vamps record? :dance:

Good to see Sigrid is finally releasing an album, I thought it would never come!

Rising nicely, it hasn’t clicked with me yet though, definitely weaker than some of his previous efforts
