U.K. CHARTS: SCOTT SCORES FIRST #1
8/4/23

Travis Scott has his first U.K. Official Albums #1 with UTOPIA (Epic) while Dave & Central Cee’s “Sprinter” is the longest-running U.K. rap #1 in chart history.

UTOPIA, which had the biggest streaming week for an LP this year, topped Scott’s previous best of #3, achieved with Astroworld in 2018.

After a neck-and-neck race, Anne-Marie’s UNHEALTHY (Atlantic) lands less than 1.5k sales behind at #2. It’s the fastest-selling album for a U.K. female solo artist in 2023; 84% of its total is made up of physical sales.

Post Malone’s AUSTIN (Island) bows at #3, while DexysThe Feminine Divine (100 Percent Records) lands at #6.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart, “Sprinter” (Live Yours/Neighbourhood) has a ninth consecutive week at #1. If the track remains on top next week, Dave and Central Cee will tie with “Flowers” (RCA) by Miley Cyrus as the longest-running #1 singles of 2023.

“What Was I Made For?” (Interscope), Billie Eilish's Barbie soundtrack contribution, rises one to #2. The track is one of three entries from the soundtrack in today’s Top 5: “Dance the Night” (Atlantic) by Dua Lipa is up one to #3 and “Barbie World” (10K Projects/Capitol) by Nicki Minaj, Ice Spice and Aqua is up one to #4.

Following the release of UTOPIA, Scott has this week’s highest new entry with “MELTDOWN” at #10.

“Disconnect” (Polydor) from Becky Hill and Chase & Status is up two to #15, while “Desire” (Sony) by Calvin Harris and Sam Smith debuts at #18.
