Eminem on course for first Number 1 single in four years with 'Houdini'

Rap superstar Eminem is currently on track to secure his 11th UK Number 1 single, and first in four years. Surprise drop Houdini gains a healthy lead ahead of Sabrina Carpenter’s Espresso, and is predicted to debut atop the Official Singles Chart come Friday.

Responsible for some of modern rap’s most iconic tracks, Eminem last topped the Official Singles Chart in 2020 with Godzilla featuring the late Juice WRLD. Houdini sees the return of his alter-ego Slim Shady, and precedes a new album due later this summer.

After celebrating his first ever UK Top 10 single last week with Stargazing, Myles Smith could move up to a brand-new peak of Number 8.
