MK Earns Second Consecutive Week at No. 1 on U.K. Singles Chart

MK has retained the top spot on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart for a second week with “Dior” (July 18).

The Michigan-born DJ and producer’s collaboration with Manchester-based Chrystal has earned a second week at the summit, and is the most-streamed track of the week in the U.K. with 5.5 million listens.

MK has had success on the charts before, with a 2013 remix of Storm Queen’s “Look Right Through,” hitting the top spot. He’s had three top 40 U.K. singles in his career, but this is the first time his original material has taken the crown in his lengthy career.
