Plan B scores midweek No.1 with album 'iLL Manors'

Hitmaker Plan B, real name Ben Drew, has landed a midweek No.1 with his brand new record 'iLL Manors'.

The 'Prayin'' singer shot straight in at the top spot this afternoon (July 25) with his exciting new offering and if it remains in the coveted position until Sunday when the chart is confirmed this will mark his second UK No.1 album. 

American rock band The Gaslight Anthem have debuted at No.2 with their fourth studio album 'Handwritten', Joss Stone's 'The Soul Sessions Vol.2' entered at 3, and 'Dance Again The Hits' by Jennifer Lopez is the last new entry in today's Top 5 at No.4.

Last week's No.1, Elton John's 'Good Morning To The Night', has dropped 11 places to No.12, Coldplay's 'Mylo Xyloto' has fallen to No.19, and former chart-topper 'Write It On Your Skin' by Newton Faulkner is now at No.24.

Elsewhere in the albums chart, David Guetta's 'Nothing But The Beat' climbed to 22, Florence + the Machine's 'Ceremonials' is at 32, and Hans Zimmers' official soundtrack for 'The Dark Knight Rises' has shot up 27 places to 9.
