9/11/20

The Rolling Stones have leapt ahead of Declan McKenna to secure this week’s U.K. Official Albums #1 with a reissue of Goats Head Soup (Polydor). Over on singles, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion claim a second week at the top.

Goats Head Soup tops the chart today as it did back in 1973. In doing so, The Stones have set a new record as the first band in Official Chart history to score a #1 across six different decades. The album finished just 800 sales ahead of McKenna, who lands a personal best with Zeros (Columbia) at #2 today.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart, “WAP” (Atlantic) by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion remains at #1 with a lead of 12,000 sales. Overall this week, it racked up 62,000 chart sales, including 8.1m streams.
