Eminem bags a fourth week atop Australia’s albums chart with Kamikaze (Interscope/Universal) while George Ezra's "Shotgun" (Columbia/Sony) enters a second week at the summit of the national singles survey.
Kamikaze is Em’s ninth No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, and it does enough to beat Drake’s Scorpion (Republic/Universal) and Ed Sheeran’s Divide (Warner) on the current frame. Guns N' Roses’ guitar hero Slash has the week’s highest debut with Living The Dream (Sony) at No. 4. It’s the third LP from Slash with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, all three of which cracked the top 10 Down Under; Slash’s Apocalyptic Love (from 2012) and World On Fire (2014) both peaked at No. 2.
Hot hip-hop outfit Brockhampton wrapped their tour of Australia on Sunday night in Brisbane, just hours after ARIA published its weekly charts. The U.S. collective open at No. 6 on the albums tally with Iridescence (RCA/Sony), making their first appearance in the top 50 in four tries.
