The Streets are heading for their first #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart in 14 years with mixtape None Of Us Are Getting Out Of This Life Alive (Island). Over on singles, “Come & Go” by Juice WRLD f/Marshmello (Victor Victor/Interscope) is currently the highest new entry at #10.
The Streets are out in front by almost 3,000 chart sales on today’s midweek update, leading on vinyl sales. Juice WRLD’s posthumous album, Legends Never Die, is #2 and rapidly gaining ground—it’s the most-streamed release so far this week.
Australian rock band DMA’S are heading for a peak position in the U.K. with The Glow (Infectious Music) at #3 after selling the most downloads over the weekend. At #4, Laura Marling’s Song For Our Daughter (Chrysalis) is vying to become her sixth consecutive Top 10 album, having arrived on CD and vinyl on Friday. (It reached #22 when released digitally in April.)
Rufus Wainwright could claim his first U.K. Top 10 album in eight years with Unfollow The Rules (BMG) currently at #9.
