Stormzy tops the Irish Charts on his opening week
London grime singer tells competitors to 'Shut Up' as Gang Signs & Prayer enters in at Number 1.
It's been a long wait to finally hear Stormzy in LP format. The singer, who rose to fame with his song 'Shut Up' in 2015, has already toured extensively, but Gang Signs & Prayer is the grime artist's first full album.
This will be welcome news for those who have tickets to see the man himself at The Olympia Theatre at the end of this month!
Elsewhere in the charts, Rag'N'Bone Man bows down to second spot this week and Ed Sheeran stays high as always with x and + sitting comfortably in the top 10 (on that note, we've little doubt that by this time next week, Sheeran's Divide will be sitting in the number one spot - you heard it here first).
The Weeknd's Starboy is in at Number 4, as the singer prepares for his headline show at Longitude Festival over the summer, while Ryan Adam's magnificent new album Prisoner sits at Number 5.
We're also delighted to see indie rock four piece Gypsies on the Autobahn enter into the charts at Number 19 with their debut album Born Brief. Big things ahead for the Cabra lads!
