Chappell Roan has achieved her first UK Number One album with ‘The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess’ – almost a year after its release.The album was first released last September, and while the long-awaited debut LP of the Missouri pop singer did well on the US charts the first time around, it had less of an impact in the UK.However, with Roan’s star rising rapidly over the last few months, it has charged up three places to the top spot on the Official UK Albums Chart, just ahead of Charli XCX’s ‘Brat’, Taylor Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ and Billie Eilish’s ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft’.The rise in her profile comes thanks in part to the huge global success of her one-off single ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, as well as the support slot she locked in on Olivia Rodrigo’s huge run of ‘Guts’ tour dates.With the album’s birthday coming up, a series of limited-edition vinyl pressings of ‘The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess’ have also just been released, further boosting its chart rise.Around the time of its release, Roan’s debut album was given a glowing four-star review by NME, with Hannah Mylrea describing it as laden with “unabashedly fun anthems”.“Sharp pop moments shine brighter than some of the weaker ballads that pad out the lengthy tracklist,” it read.

Chappell Roan is on her way to claiming her first UK Number One album, with breakthrough debut ‘The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess’.Released last September, the album marked the long-awaited debut LP from Roan and, while it did well on the US charts, it had less of an impact in the UK.However, following the singer’s huge surge in popularity over the past few months, the debut has been making waves in England and is on course for the top position on the charts – nearly a year after it first arrived.The rise in her profile comes thanks to the huge global success of her one-off single ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, as well as the support slot she locked in on Olivia Rodrigo’s huge run of ‘Guts’ tour dates.Currently, ‘Good Luck, Babe!’ is sat at the Number Two spot on the Official Singles Charts, and ‘The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess’ has moved up three places midweek in the album charts thanks to the release of a vinyl variant (via Official Charts).At the time of writing, two of Roan’s singles have already made it to the UK Top 40 singles charts: ‘HOT TO GO!’, which peaked at Number 19, and ‘Red Wine Supernova’ climbed to Number 38.Other competitors for the UK Number One album are Charli XCX, who has been dominating the music charts this summer with her hit album ‘Brat’, Jack White’s latest record ‘No Name’ (currently at Number Six), Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s ‘VULTURES 2’ (Nine), Sam Smith’s reissued 2014 debut album ‘In The Lonely Hour’ (22) and 86TVs’ self-titled album (27).Around the time of its release, Roan’s debut album was given a glowing four-star review by NME, with Hannah Mylrea describing it as laden with “unabashedly fun anthems”.“Sharp pop moments shine brighter than some of the weaker ballads that pad
