D Block Europe Set to Crush U.K. Albums Chart With ‘Rolling Stone’

D Block Europe is heading for a first U.K. No. 1 with Rolling Stone (via D Block Europe), the British hip hop collective’s third studio album. Rolling Stone leads an all new top three on the midweek chart, and will extend the act’s tally of U.K. top 10 albums, which currently stands at seven – the most of any British rap act in Official Charts history .

The result isn’t a foregone conclusion. The Vaccines are close behind with Pick Up Full of Pink Carnations (Super Easy), on track for a No. 2 debut. Pick Up should give the English indie pop outfit a sixth consecutive U.K. top 10 album, and highest chart appearance since 2015’s English Graffiti , which also peaked at No.
