U.K. CHARTS: A FIRST FOR DIGGA D

London rapper Digga D has claimed his first #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums chart with Noughty by Nature (CGM/EGA). Over on singles, Harry Styles reigns for a third week.

Noughty by Nature is the fifth independent #1 album of the year and second for a consecutive week, following Wet Leg’s success last Friday.

Little Mix’s Between Us (RCA) returns to the Top 5 at #5 today, while Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia (Warner Records) rises 12 places to #16. Both acts enjoy sales boosts as their respective tours kick off in the U.K.

Further down, The Police’s 1992 Greatest Hits (A&M) returns to the Top 40 at #32 thanks to a 30th anniversary vinyl release. Kurt Vile’s (watch my moves) (Verve) is new at #33.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles chart, “As It Was” is now Styles’ longest-running solo #1 in his home country. The track counted more than 7.3m streams this week.

Jack Harlow holds steady at #2 with “First Class” (Atlantic), while Aitch f/Ashanti’s “Baby” (Capitol) rebounds one to #3. Camila Cabello and Ed Sheeran’s “Bam Bam” (Epic) hits a new peak of #8.

Outside the Top 10, Tate McRae’s “she’s all i wanna be” (RCA) climbs three to #14, and David Guetta, Ella Henderson and Becky Hill are up three to #17 with “Crazy What Love Can Do” (Warner Music U.K.).

This week’s highest new entry is “Flowers” (UMG) from Lauren Spencer-Smith, which debuts at #18.
