Drake heads for a big Top 5 debut on The Official Chart: First Look, as Joel Corry & MNEK gear up to hold at Number 1 with Head & Heart.

Already ahead by 5,000 chart sales after 48 hours, Head & Heart is comfortably on course to land a fifth consecutive week at Number 1. Their closest competition, Lighter by Nathan Dawe ft. KSI, is up one place to potentially land at Number 2 this week.

Drake's new single, Laugh Now Cry Later ft. Lil Durk is heading for the week’s highest new entry, at Number 3 on today’s sales flash. It’s set to be American rapper Lil Durk’s first appearance in the Official Singles Chart, and Drake’s 17th Top 5 single. Drake's already enjoyed seven Top 20 hits in 2020 so far including a Number 1 with Toosie Slide. See Drake's full Official Chart history here.

Jubel’s Dancing in the Moonlight ft. Neimy could finally hit the Top 10 this week, currently up one place to Number 10.

Midnight Sky by Miley Cyrus is set to debut at Number 13; it would be Miley’s 13th Top 20 hit if it stays on course. It’s the first new music we’ve had from Miley since her appearance on the 2019 Charlie’s Angels theme Don’t Call Me Angel with Ariana Grande and Lana Del Rey.
