U.K. MIDWEEKS: KINGS OF LEON SET FOR #1

5/13/24

Kings of Leon are heading towards #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart with Can We Please Have Fun (Polydor). Over on singles, Post Malone and Morgan Wallen are headed for the top with their debut country collaboration.

If Can We Please Have Fun holds on to its lead by Friday, it will be Kings of Leon’s seventh U.K. #1 album.

Meanwhile, Keane are celebrating 20 years of their debut, Hopes and Fears (Island/UMR), which has re-entered at #3 thanks to a deluxe anniversary reissue.

Gunna could have his fourth Top 10 with One of Wun (300) at #5, while Queen’s Rock Montreal (UMG) is at #6 following a reissue.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweeks, “I Had Some Help” (Republic) by Malone and Wallen is on track for #1. It would be Malone’s third U.K. #1 single and Wallen’s first.

Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby” (ISO Supremacy/PULSE) is up two to #5, while Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” (Interscope) is expected to jump three to #7.

“Stargazing” (Sony) by soul singer Myles Smith could debut as his first U.K. Top 20 entry at #11.

We are still at #1 for most jokes made about Liam Gallagher.
