RAYE has reached a new career high as This Music May Contain Hope debuts at No. 1 on the UK Official Albums Chart. The new release gives her the first chart-topping album of her career in the UK and adds another major moment to a breakout run that has continued to build over the past few years.
The album’s arrival at the top follows strong early momentum. Before the full project claimed the No. 1 spot, the lead single WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! had already climbed to No. 1 on the UK Official Singles Chart. That performance helped set up a strong launch week and confirmed the level of attention around the release.
The new chart result also improves on the success of My 21st Century Blues, which previously peaked at No. 2. At the same time, RAYE remains active on the road. She is in the middle of the U.S. leg of her This Tour May Contain New Music tour, with more live dates ahead, including shows scheduled with Bruno Mars later this year.
