Eminem Breaks UK Chart Record

Eminem's album 'Recovery' is Number One for a fifth week this week, making it the first hip-hop album to spend more than a month on the top spot in the UK album charts.

'Recovery' beat off stiff competition from Tom Jones' 'Praise and Blame' with the Welsh crooner having to settle for second place just ahead of Plan B's 'Defamation of Strickland Banks' at three.

Elsewhere in the albums chart there were new entries from Avenged Sevenfold and Jedward.

In the singles chart new boyband The Wanted knoked Yolanda Be Cool & DCUP from the top spot with their single 'All Time Low'.
