U.K. CHARTS: MUSIC TO HIT #1 BY  

Eminem has scored the double on the U.K’s Official Charts, hitting the top of both albums and singles with Music to be Murdered By (Polydor) and “Godzilla” f/Juice Wrld.

Music to be Murdered By is #1 on the Official Albums Chart today on 36k combined sales, extending Eminem’s record-breaking run of consecutive top-charting albums to 10. “Godzilla” has also achieved a feat rarely won these days by going in straight at #1 on its debut week; only three acts did that last year.

Courteneers settle for second place with More. Again. Forever. (Ignition), which topped the vinyl chart. Bombay Bicycle Club claim the third highest new albums entry with Everything Else Has Gone Wrong (Island) at #4.

Halsey’s Manic (Virgin EMI) opens at #6 and the posthumous Mac Miller album, Circles (Warner), is #8.

Louise's comeback album, Heavy Love (Lil Lou Records/Warner), finishes at #11, and the debut album from drill rapper DigDat opens at #12 with the U.K.’s biggest opening week for a drill album.

On the Official Singles Chart, Roddy Ricch ends the week just 93 chart sales behind Eminem with “The Box” (Atlantic) at #2. The track has climbed four places thanks in part to a viral dance challenge on TikTok.

The Weeknd lands his fifth Top 5 song with “Blinding Lights” (Island) rising four places to #4, and DigDat f/Aitch’s “Ei8ht Mile” is his first Top 10 single, coming in at #9.

Eminem has two further entries in this week’s Top 40: “Those Kinda Nights” f/Ed Sheeran at #12 and “Darkness” at #17.
