Kanye West Still Strong At Number One

Kanye West has held onto the number one slot for a second week with his Daft Punk sampling track ‘Stronger.’

The outspoken rapper held off competition from Sean Kingston’s ‘Beautiful Girls’ at two, in what was a very uneventful week in the singles chart.

Elvis had a further two tracks hit the top twenty - ‘Blue Suede Shoes’ at 13 and ‘My Baby Left Me’ at 19 - as part of his series of re-releases marking the 30th anniversary of his death. Further down, Kaiser Chiefs’ ‘The Angry Mob’ entered at 21.

Over in the album chart, Newton Faulkner climbed up to the top spot with ‘Hand Built By Robots’ on the record’s fourth week of release. Elvis Presley’s ‘The King’ slipped a place to two.

No doubt thanks to her endless column inches, Amy Winehouse moved up a place to three with ‘Back To Black’, while Richard Hawley impressively debuted at 6 with his latest effort ‘Lady’s Bridge.’
