Adele’s ’21′ album notched a 21st week at the top of the US Billboard 200 this week and became the longest-running #1 release by a female artist on the lineup. Now, following her highly publicised performance at the 2012 BRIT Awards, the singer has matched that feat in the UK.
Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am has yet to finalise his ‘#willpower’ album but he has already scored his first hit from the project. Indeed, the record’s lead single, ‘T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever) (Ft. Jennifer Lopez & Mick Jagger)’, has roared onto the Official UK Singles Chart and landed in the top 5.
