Drake sees off Kungs to claim longest running Number 1 of the digital age
Plus, new entries and climbers from Sigala feat John Newman and Nile Rodgers, Bastille and more.
Looks like Drake really is unstoppable – he's done it again.
The Canadian rapper's One Dance, featuring Wizkid and Kyla, held off a midweek challenge from French producer Kungs to claim the Number 1 prize for an astonishing 11th week. This makes One Dance the longest running chart-topper of the digital age, since 2004 and the introduction of legal download services. Take a look at the longest reigns at Number 1 in UK chart history.
It was pretty close, with just over 3,000 combined chart separating Drake from Kungs vs Cookin' On 3 Burners' This Girl, which settles for runner-up position today.

Drake was the most streamed track of the week, too, notching up 4.67 million listens over the last seven days.
Justin Timberlake's Can't Stop The Feeling holds firm at 3, while Calvin Harris and Rihanna's This Is What You Came For stays at 4. Drake and Rihanna both make another appearance in the Top 5 – their collab Too Good is a non-mover at 5.

5 weeks behind Bryan Adams and 7 weeks behind all time champion Frankie Lai e way back in 1953! Surely someone out tbefe wl slay the Drake goliath but we don't know who.yet can outstrea. Him.

...and once again One Dance dominates the charts, even though it doesn't lead the actual charts. This seems to be happening in EVERY global chart now. But at least those who worry about Lukas Graham being the highest selling act of the year won't need to anymore, that's the only good thing about this week's result (and probably the next few weeks too if I say so myself!)

I always click on the Singles/Sales chart. Much more honest representation of what the charts should look like.

Drake is so overrated. I will never understand his popularity.

Much better rapper than Lil Wayne, 50 Cent and Kanye West. But One Dance is a joke
