U.K. MIDWEEKS: BEY RULES

Beyoncé has taken the U.K. charts by storm with RENAISSANCE (Columbia/ Parkwood), set to become her fourth #1. It's outselling the rest of the Official Albums Top 5 combined. Queen Bey's “BREAK MY SOUL,” meanwhile, is challenging LF System for the top spot at singles.

Elsewhere, Maggie Rogers could claim her first Top 10 with Surrender (Polydor), which starts at #3, while Orbital’s 30 Something (London Music Stream) is new at #5.

The Cribs have three entries in the Top 10 with the rerelease of their first three albums: Men’s Needs, Women’s Needs, Whatever (Sonic Blew) is at #4, The New Fellas is at #7 and The Cribs is at #8.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweek chart, Beyoncé’s “BREAK MY SOUL” is set to bounce to #2 from #6, challenging the reign of LF System's long-running #1, “Afraid To Feel” (Warner Records).

Two other songs from RENAISSANCE are in today's Top 20: “CUFF IT” at #10 and “I'M THAT GIRL” at #11.

David Guetta, Becky Hill and Ella Henderson could rise one place to #6 with “Crazy What Love Can Do” (Parlophone), while Nathan Dawe and Ella Henderson’s “21 Reasons” (Warner Music U.K.) is on track for a new peak of #8.
