Ariana Grande Stops Keith Urban’s Run at #1

It seemed although nothing was going to bump Keith Urban’s new record from first place on the ARIA Albums Chart, but after a two week stint at #1, US pop star Ariana Grande has claimed the throne with her new record, Dangerous Woman.

The third album from the 22 year old knocked Urban’s ninth record, Ripcord, down to #3, after a two weeks at #1 in Australia that saw him block Radiohead, The Living End and Paul Dempsey from top honours.

Ripcord has also spent the past two weeks at #1 on the Canadian Billboard Country chart and US Billboard Top Country Albums chart.

The top five sees a pop overload, with Beyonce’s Lemonade holding steady at #2, Meghan Trainor’s Thank You moving down to #4 and Adele’s 25 at #5.

Rock legends Eric Clapton (I Still Do at #10) and Bob Dylan (Fallen Angels at #11) scored top 20 debuts as well as Blake Shelton’s If I’m Honest placing #13.

Other debuts include Highasakite’s Camp Echo (#24), Issues’ Headspace (#36) and Saosin’s Along The Way (#44).

Over on the Singles Chart, Drake’s One Dance featuring Wizkid and Kyla shows no signs of moving anytime soon, maintaining a stronghold on #1, while The Amity Affliction’s I Bring The Weather With Me debuted at #53 and Martin Solveig’s collab with Tkay Maidza, Do It Right came in at #56.
