Daryl Braithwaite To Challenge Taylor Swift On ARIA Chart After Hall Of Fame Induction

Staff Writer

That's the way it's gonna be.

Just hours after being inducted into the prestigious ARIA Hall Of Fame, Daryl Braithwaite is set to shake up the Albums chart. 

According to midweek figures, the Aussie legend's new compilation, Days Go By, is predicted to debut in the top ten and could push for top spot. 

It will be a tough ask though, given that Taylor Swift's Reputation has stayed strong at #1 since its debut two weeks ago and is again the favourite to come out on top.

Other album debuts this week come from Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds with Who Built The Moon? (top ten), Björk's Utopia and Hopsin's No Shame (both top 20).

You shouldn't be expecting any movement on the Singles chart either, as it is expected that Camila Cabello's Havana (ft. Young Thug) will hang on to #1 for a third-straight week over Post Malone's Rockstar (ft. 21 Savage).

New entries this week come from Bebe Rexha and Florida Georgia Line with Meant To Be, BTS' Mic Drop (Steve Aoki remix), which should both land in the top 40 and Timmy Trumpet's Deja-vu in the top 50.
