Music Minute: Kanye West breaks album record, Coachella 2016 preview
In this week's Music Minute: Kanye West's latest album tops the charts, Coachella 2016 set to start and new collaboration between Sigala, John Newman and Nile Rodgers.
The Life of Pablo breaks records
Kanye West's ego must be off the scale right now, as the rapper has broken a record in the US with his latest album The Life Of Pablo (TLOP) reaching number one on the Billboard 200 chart. After finally releasing the LP to services like Apple Music, Yeezy's seventh LP has shifted more than 94,000 units. The majority of those are from streaming figures making TLOP the first album to top the charts without the help of pure sales.
Coachella 2016 kicks off
Festival season will be kicking off in style this weekend as Coachella returns to Indio, California, for another year. Festival-goers will rock out to headline sets from Guns N' Roses, Calvin Harris and LCD Soundsystem, while other performers include Ice Cube, Sia, Disclosure, Ellie Goulding, Jack Ü, Major Lazer, Foals and The 1975. We'll be keeping an eye on all the backstage antics and celebrity spots, so you won't be out of the loop.
Single of the week
And lastly, if you need to update your playlist then get into the party spirit with Give Me Your Love from Sigala, John Newman and Nile Rodgers. An interesting collaboration, but awesome nonetheless. We fully expect this anthem to fill the clubs over the summer months, so download it now to uplift your mood.
