It looks like Drake won’t be moved from the top of the Official Singles Chart this week as his latest single, God’s Plan, is set to claim a second week at Number 1.

Last week the rapper and singer stormed to the top of the chart to claim his third Number 1 with the track, which features on his new Scary Hours EP.

Drake makes two more appearances in today’s Official Chart Update; on Migos’ Walk It Talk It from his new album Culture II, new at Number 30, and at 36 with Diplomatic Immunity, the other track from his EP.

Rising star Ramz holds firm at Number 2 with his breakthrough hit Barking, and Eminem’s River ft. Ed Sheeran is at 3.

Norwegian singer and winner of BBC’s Sound Of 2018 Sigrid could be claiming her first Top 10 single with Strangers, currently up ten places to Number 4, and Craig David’s I Know You ft. Bastille jumps from 10 to 5 following the release of his new album, The Time Is Now.

New entries and high climbers

US band Portugal The Man are on the cusp of entering the Top 10 this week with Feel It Still, so far up 11 places to Number 9, and Rudimental’s new single These Days ft. Jess Glynne and Macklemore is set to make a big climb, currently up 16 places to Number 17.

Further down, Justin Timberlake is on track to land his second Top 40 hit from his upcoming Man of the Woods album with Say Something (31), and Birmingham rapper Mist could be making his Top 40 debut with Game Changer, currently at Number 35

Five-time GRAMMY Award-winning global icon Shania Twain has announced a major run of outdoor shows across the UK and Ireland for June 2027, including headlining State Fayre, the UK’s largest music and BBQ festival, on Saturday 19 June.

The eight-date run begins at Scarborough’s Open Air Theatre on 16 June, before Shania heads to Glasgow Summer Sessions at Bellahouston Park, State Fayre Festival in Chelmsford, Cardiff’s Blackweir Fields, Live at Powderham in Exeter, Dublin’s Marlay Park, Belsonic in Belfast and finally culminating at Oxfordshire’s Blenheim Palace Festival on 29 June.

Tickets go on general sale on Friday 6 November at 9am.

The announcement follows the release of Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, the deluxe edition of Shania’s acclaimed seventh studio album, Little Miss Twain. Released this July, Little Miss Twain marked a significant and deeply personal chapter for Shania. After more than three decades as one of the most successful and influential artists in music, the global superstar turned back to the beginning, revisiting the experiences, sounds and memories that shaped her before the world knew her name.

Drawing from her childhood and teenage years growing up in Canada, the acclaimed album traces the roots of her singular sound across country, pop, rock, soul and bluegrass, offering a revealing portrait of the influences behind an artist who would go on to reshape the boundaries of country and pop music. The album also features an exceptional lineup of collaborators, including Tanya Tucker, T Bone Burnett, Ronnie Wood, Josh Homme, Ray Parker Jr., and Toto’s David Paich. With Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, Shania expands that story, offering an even deeper look at the formative experiences and musical influences behind both the artist and icon she would become.

Also recently released was the audiobook of Shania’s 2011 memoir, From This Moment On, now available with narration from Shania herself. The bestselling book traces her tumultuous rise to stardom and features a new foreword with personal reflections on her journey.

Shania’s influence remains as far-reaching as ever. In 2027, she will celebrate the 30th anniversary of Come On Over and the 25th anniversary of Up!, two era-defining albums that transformed country and pop music, broke barriers around the world and cemented her status as a global icon. With a huge run of live dates in 2027, and a biopic chronicling her life and career also in development, Shania continues to look ahead while celebrating the music and milestones that have defined her extraordinary career.
