KPop Demon Hunters slays another record

The soundtrack to Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters holds at #1 for a third consecutive week. It’s the longest running #1 album from an animated movie since the Trolls soundtrack spent three weeks at #1 in early 2017. 

Four tracks from the album are in the top 10 singles chart this week: Golden at #2, Your Idol at #4, Soda Pop at #7 and How It’s Done at #9. 

The release of an expanded version of Alex Warren’s debut album You’ll Be Alright, Kid sends it racing back up the chart from #25 to #2. Its previous peak was #15 earlier this year. 

Tyler, The Creator’s ninth studio album, Don’t Tap The Glass, debuts at #4. It’s his seventh consecutive top 20 album: he reached #19 in 2013 with Wolf, #13 in 2015 with Cherry Bomb, #8 in 2017 with Flower Boy, #3 in 2019 with Igor, #2 in 2021 with Call Me If You Get Lost and #1 for two weeks last year with Chromakopia. 

Jessie Murph is new at #12 with her second album, Sex Hysteria. The Alabama-born singer reached #76 on the albums chart last year with That Ain’t No Man That’s The Devil. The first single from her new album, Blue Strips, peaked at #17 three months ago. 

Justin Bieber scores his ninth #1 single, as Daisies steps up from its #3 debut last week. He is now tied with Delta Goodrem, Pink and Eminem at #7 on the list of the acts with the most #1 songs here. The track features guitar work and production from cult artists Mk.Gee and Dijon among others.

Bieber previously reached the top spot with What Do You Mean in 2015, Lose Yourself in 2015-16, Cold Water with Major Lazer and MO in 2016, Despacito with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee in 2017, I’m The One with DJ Khaled and others in 2017, I Don’t Care with Ed Sheeran in 2019, Peaches in 2021 and Stay with The KID LAROI in 2021-22. 

As his song Ordinary slips from #1 to #3 after an epic 17 weeks on top, Alex Warren is new at #10 with Eternity. His duet with Jelly Roll, Bloodline, jumps from #48 to #30; it peaked at #12 in late May.
