U.K. MIDWEEKS: STROKES VS. DUA

4/14/20

The Strokes are battling Dua Lipa for the U.K.’s Official Albums #1 this week with The New Abnormal (RCA) currently sitting at #2. Over on singles, The Weeknd looks set to claim an eighth week at the top with “Blinding Lights” (Island).

The New Abnormal sits just 250 chart sales behind Lipa’s Future Nostalgia (Warner Records) at the midweek point, and claims the most physical and download sales so far.

Torey Lanez is on track for his highest U.K. chart entry with The New Toronto 3 (Interscope) at #3, while British rapper Cadet, who died in a car crash last year, starts at #10 with his posthumous debut, The Rated Legend (Underrated Legends).
