In just a few years, he has become the new phenomenon of French rap. And his new project proves it! Tiakola is number one in the Top Albums this week with the mixtape “BDLM, vol. 1”, containing duets with Niska, Hamza, Ronisia and SDM. Mainly popular in streaming, which represents 88% of the total, the rapper sold 23,800 copies of the record and therefore dislodged Indochina from first place. The very popular rock group slips into second position with 12,800 sales for “Babel Babel”, down 31%. Behind, two comebacks are causing a sensation in the charts. Starting with Jean-Louis Aubert, whose new opus “Pafini”, third, attracts 8,500 fans. Manu Chao follows in fourth position with “Viva Tu”, his first record in 17 years, adopted by 8,300 curious people. Gims moves from second to fifth place with his EP “Le nord remembers”. Thanks to the hits “Spider” or “Don’t be shy”, 6,400 units of the project were sold (-16%).

Amir falls, Chappell Roan flies away
Another successful rapper, Bouss continues to seduce the public: “Depuis le temps” is sixth with 4,800 new copies filling his basket (+4%). Seventh, the full album of season 3 of the Netflix show “New School” arrives with 4,500 units on the counter. This is a little better than Gringe which follows in eighth position. His disc “Hypersensisble”, containing a duet with Orelsan, touches the heart of 4,400 followers. Finally, if Billie Eilish still resists with “Hit Me Hard and Soft” (3,400 purchases), Pierre Garnier makes a giant leap. Following the release of the duet “Every second” with M. Pokora, the young phenomenon saw his album regain nine places and return to the top 10 thanks to 3,300 checkouts (+32%). The platinum disc is not far away!
The public was waiting to know the score of Katy Perry, whose return is surrounded by controversy. The popstar is not doing so badly since her new album “143” is 14th with 2,800 sales, including 2,100 in physical sales, which represents 74% of the total. An honorable score given the disastrous reviews and the reception of the first singles. As a reminder, “Smile” entered 17th in the summer of 2020, also with around 2,800 purchases. “143” thus achieves a score similar to that of the metal group Nightwish, 15th with “Yesterwynde”. On the other hand, it falls for Amir! Entering fifth, he slipped to 25th position with “C amir”, which only interests 2,100 fans (-48%). On the contrary, pop sensation Chappell Roan takes off with her first event album “The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess”, from 235th to 46th place, with 1,600 fans won over (+164%). Huge boost also for Kavinsky who saw his meter explode after the release of the version of “Nightcall” with Angèle and Phoenix: his album “Outrun” went from 197th to 50th position with 1,600 units (+129%), mainly thanks to streaming. Finally, Jamie xx is not making waves: his excellent second solo album “In Waves” is 84th with 1,200 units.
