Plus Drake holds onto ANOTHER week at the top of the Official UK Singles Chart...

Skepta has justscored achart personal best with his fourth studio album 'Konnichiwa' smashing in at No.2 on the Official UK Albums Chart, just missing out on the top spot after Radiohead entered at No.1 with 'A Moon Shaped Pool', securing their sixth UK No.1 album, after just five days on sale.

'Konnichiwa'is the much-anticipated follow up to theLondon MC's last album 'Doin' It Again', which was releasedfive years ago and, aftershutting it down up and down the country on his mini UK this week, this chart position proves he's on top of his game.

In a recentinterview with BBC 1Xtra's Semtex, Skepta spoke of his bond with Drake (who's 'Views' falls to No.4 this week)saying:“I can’t tell how he heard of me. I will never know, but I’ll put my money on him finding me online and searching for my music because that’s what he’s like – he’s a music lover.

"For me, it was a blessing that he was co-signing me and bigging me up, because I’m still gonna do what I’m gonna do anyway," he continued. "I’m just blessed to have them man supporting. My album came out on the 6th when I was in Toronto and it’s like home. The way they’ve got me out there is mad.”
