Playboi Carti’s ‘Music’ Shatters Records, Soaring to First U.K. No. 1 Album!

Playboi Carti has landed his first-ever No. 1 album in the U.K. with Music (March 21).

It marks Carti’s first LP in just more than four years, following December 2020’s Whole Lotta Red, which peaked at No. 17. The Atlanta rapper, born Jordan Terrell Carter, also previously saw success on the Official U.K. Albums Chart with 2018’s Die Lit (No. 27).

The sprawling 30-track effort features cameos from an all-star guestlist, including Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, Lil Uzi Vert, and Jhené Aiko. The record was announced less than a week prior to its release, following years of development purgatory — from its title changing multiple times to a protracted recording process.

Two songs from Music also appear in the top 10 — “Evil J0rdan” (No. 7) and “Rather Lie” with The Weeknd (No. 10), taking Carti’s all-time Top 10 tally to four. Upon release, it became Spotify’s most-streamed album in a single day in 2025 so far.

As the Short n’ Sweet Tour continues to roll through the U.K. and Europe, Sabrina Carpenter’s sixth LP lands at No. 2 this week. The 2025 BRITs Global Success award winner first topped the Official U.K. Albums Chart in September 2024, with Short n’ Sweet going on to become the third-biggest album of last year in the country.

Songwriter and Porcupine Tree founder Steven Wilson follows at No. 3, matching his previous solo career-best with eighth studio collection The Overview. Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM slips three spots to No. 4, while Tate McRae rounds out the Top 5 with So Close To What.

Following its release on Blood Records white powder filled vinyl, Charli XCX’s  Brat remix LP makes its Top 40 debut this week (No. 40). Titled Brat & It’s Completely Different But Also Still Brat, the collection’s initial streaming release in November 2024 pushed its parent album to No.1 in the U.K. for the first time.

After taking this week’s No. 1 single with “Ordinary,” breakout U.S. singer-songwriter Alex Warren is on the cusp of his first-ever Top 40 album with You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1). Initially released in September, the record has jumped 13 spots to a new No. 41 peak.
