Harry Styles managed it earlier this year with Fine Line on top for the chart for the first two weeks of the year after initially hitting #1 in mid-December 2019. Kanye West did it for two weeks in November 2019 with Jesus Is King. Post Malone, Ed Sheeran, Billie Eilish almost wreck our argument as they also racked up multiple weeks at #1 too in 2019.
Metal releases continue to perform well on debut on the ARIA Album Chart with Five Finger Death Punch new at #2 with their eighth album F8.
The third album to debut in the top 10 this week is from Melbourne pop punk band Slowly Slowly with Race Car Blues at #7. The band’s third album comes two years after their second album St Leonards peaked at #77. The band played the Lemonade Music Festival in Sale, Victoria, yesterday and tours the new album around Australia from mid-April.

#20 Lil Baby with My Turn. Second album from the US rapper.
