Stormzy scores the UK's first Number 1 song of 2020 and the decade as Own It climbs to the top spot on this week's Official Singles Chart.
Own It ft. Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy climbs from 5 to 1 to earn Stormzy his third chart-topper in the UK, following Vossi Bop and Take Me Back To London (with Ed Sheeran) in 2019. The track scores 57,000 chart this week, including 6.6 million streams. View Stormzy's Official Chart history in full.
Watch Stormzy celebrate the news below:
“When we shoot, we score!" Stormzy told OfficialCharts.com. "Big up Ed and Burna Boy. Honestly, I’m so grateful. Anyone who listens to me, supports me, buys my music, streams my music or comes to my shows, you lot have changed my life. Words aren’t enough, but thank you."
The last British rapper to score three Number 1 singles in the space of one year was Dizzee Rascal, who landed a trio of chart-toppers ten years ago with Holiday, Dirtee Disco and Shout, between September 2009 - June 2010.
Stormzy beats strong competition this week from Lewis Capaldi, who zooms from 12 to Number 2 with Before You Go.
All Christmas songs dropping out of this week's Top 40 - with the exception of last week's Number 1, Ellie Goulding's River (28) - means a flurry of songs rebound or make huge climbs up the chart. Three tracks enter the Top 10 for the first time: Harry Styles’ Adore You charges 19 spots to 7, Endor's Pump It Up leaps 28 places to make its Top 10 debut at 8, and This Is Real by Jax Jones ft. Ella Henderson vaults 35 spots to 9 to become Jax's sixth Top 10.
Meanwhile, The Weeknd’s Blinding Lights reaches a new peak of 11, Camila Cabello's My Oh My ft. DaBaby soars from 49 to 13, marking her 12th UK Top 40 hit; Falling by US singer Trevor Daniel zooms 31 places to 14; Frozen's Into The Unknown by Idina Menzel & Aurora is up 43 spots to 19; and Young T & Bugsey's Don't Rush ft. Headie One hits a new high at 20.
New entries this week come from, D-Block Europe, who enter at 29 with No Cellular Site, and J Hus lands at 33 with No Denying.
There are new peaks for Darkoo & One Acen's Gangsta (22); Tom Walker's Better Half Of Me (30); No Idea by US hip-hop star Don Toliver (39); and The Box by American rapper Roddy Ricch (40).

That's technically not true. Ellie Goulding achieved the first #1 single of 2020 since the chart is updated a week ahead.

I go by real statistics and Dance Monkey is No.1 where I'm concerned not Stormzy. I guess he gets added to the ever growing list of Non-No.1s which started when ACR was introduced in 2018 with Rudimental/Jess Glynne (great song).
David Eve
ACR was introduced in July 2017 and the first fake no.1 was 'Wild Thoughts' instead of 'Despacito' which even on ACR managed to return to no.1 for a further 2 weeks (actually would have been 4 weeks without ACR.....since Calvin Harris' "Feels" and Dua Lipa's first week with "New Rules" are also fake no.1s).
Jess Glynne achieved two fake number no.1's due to ACR.

Real number one this week was Dance Monkey.. 2 weeks in a row the most consumed song of the week hasn't been the official number one
David Eve
This might be the first time there have been 2 consecutive fake number no.1's due to ACR... Actually scrap that Dua Lipa's 'first' week at no.1 with New Rules was ACR-induced as was the previous week's "Feels".
Piran
I'm surprised as to how few new arrivals there were this week (which were all either trap or grime), but yeah, there was no doubt this new chart was going to be hectic!
I'm very excited to see 'Own It' become the first #1 of 2020, as well as 'Before You Go' rebound to re-peak, as well as 'Don't Start Now' & 'Lose You To Love Me' also retaking their Top 10 positions. :)
Sergej Dordij
Hi Piran!
I called "Own It" being #1 in the UK and I think everyone that it would be #1.
But I also like "Don't Start Now" being back in the top 10!
Piran
Hey Sergej! :)
Yeah, there was no question that 'Own It' would take the #1 spot this week, but we'll see if Stormzy can retain it next week thanks to JB's new single coming out.
Haha, I knew that would be a highlight for you, but I love it too!
