Eminem on course for No.1 album with Kamikaze

The Official Charts Company Midweek Sales Flash is in and Eminem is on course for a No.1 finish for new album Kamikaze.

The rapper’s surprise-release 10th album has 39,853 sales for the week so far and has a comfortable lead over its closest challenger, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (11,826 sales). The Greatest Showman (11,118 sales), Idles’ Joy As An Act Of Resistance (9,366 sales) and Ariana Grande’s Sweetener (8,157 sales) make up the Top 5.

Calvin Harris & Sam Smith are on top in the singles chart, thanks to 38,695 sales of Promises. Benny Blanco, Halsey & Khalid are at No.2 with Eastside (35,586 sales), while George Ezra’s Shotgun (30,205 sales) is showing yet more stamina at No.3. Eminem’s The Ringer (29,547 sales) could seal double chart success for Marshall Mathers come Friday, while Loud Luxury’s Body (feat. Brando, 27,839 sales) completes the Top 5.
