DAMN. - Kendrick Lamar Fails To Dethrone Ed Sheeran From #1 On ARIA Chart

Yep, you guessed it — Ed Sheeran has held onto the #1 spot on the ARIA Albums Chart yet again, bringing his streak to seven weeks on top. 

After almost two months of dominance, it was heavily predicted that the UK songwriter's ÷ (Divide) would fall to Kendrick Lamar's DAMN., however the rapper's fourth studio album has just missed out, debuting at #2 this week on the chart. 

Lamar's placing is nothing to be disappointed about, however we will have to wait another week to see if anyone can dethrone Sheeran from top spot.

Mark Vincent's A Tribute To Mario Lanza and John Mayer's The Search For Everything debuted on the chart this week at #3 and #5 respectively, while Tina Arena's Tina Arena (Greatest Hits & Interpretations) has dropped slightly from last week to land at #4.

Other albums debuting this week include The Fate Of The Furious soundtrack (#13) and Spit Syndicate's One Good Shirt Had Us All Fly (#19).

Meanwhile over on the Singles chart, Sheeran's Shape Of You has reclaimed the #1 spot in emphatic fashion after fellow Brit Harry Styles spoiled the track making ARIA chart history last week.

After debuting at #1 last week, Styles' Sign Of The Times has dropped down to #5 and has been overtaken by Lamar's Humble at #2, Sheeran's Galway Girl at #3 and The Chainsmokers' and Coldplay's Something Just Like This at #4.

Elsewhere, Lady Gaga's new hit track The Cure has debuted at #17, while G-Eazy's Good Life featuring Kehlani has come in at #31.
