The Weeknd has climbed from the No.4 spot up to No. 2 with The Highlights, while Harry Styles' Harry's House goes from No.8 to No.3 following his (controversial) Album of the Year win at the Grammys last Sunday night.
Pop underdog Raye has secured this week's highest new entry at No.13 with her long-awaited debut album My 21st Century Blues, which was a hard-fought creative battle and was later released independently rather than with Polydor Records.
Jax Jones, Regard, Rudimental, Jonas Blue and Martin Solveig are among the list of global DJs who have nabbed Raye’s voice, penmanship and production skills to create certified chart dance hits. Having contributed written tracks to the likes of Beyonce, Little Mix, Charli XCX and John Legend; her ability to work with artists from far-reaching genres has allowed Raye to expand her own range.

The biggest mover is PinkPantheress with ‘Boy’s A Liar’, which went from No.64 to No.14 thanks to a feature from Ice Spice on 'Boy's A Liar Pt. II' last week.
Beyoncé's ‘Cuff It’ went from No.58 to No.18 following her Grammys success, having been crowned the most awarded artist of all time with 32 wins by the Recording Academy.
