Over in the albums chart, Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet has spent a third non-consecutive week at the top spot, with Critical Thinking – the latest studio album from rock band Manic Street Preachers – debuting at number two.
Kendrick Lamar has earned his first ever number one in the UK singles chart after his Drake diss track “Not Like Us” surged in popularity following the Super Bowl.
Two of the rapper’s collaborations with R&B singer SZA have also climbed into the singles chart top five this week, with “Luther” in at number four and “All The Stars” rounding out the list.
Lamar, 37, rapped the song at the NFL match following speculation over whether it would be included in his set due to allegations it makes about Drake and the Canadian rapper’s ongoing legal action against label Universal Music.
Drake’s album with Canadian singer PartyNextDoor, Some Sexy Songs 4 U, has entered at number three and the rest of the top five is comprised of The Wombats’ album Oh!
