Outselling its nearest competitor, ‘Hard Candy‘ is Madonna’s tenth #1 album. The albums’ staggering first single “4 Minutes” featuring Justin Timberlake, also tops the single’s chart for a second week. Incredibly this is the fourth time Madonna has had a single and album simultaneously at #1. No other solo female artist has done the double more than once. Madonna has had more UK number 1’s than any other female artist and is the most successful female solo artist, ever!
Madonna’s Double’s:
1986 - album: True Blue - single: Papa Don’t Preach
1989 - album: Like A Prayer - single: Like A Prayer
2005 - album: Confessions On A Dance Floor - single: Hung Up
2008 - album: Hard Candy - single: 4 Minutes
“4 Minutes” is a global smash, topping the European and World charts and notching up over a million downloads. ‘Hard Candy’ is the highly anticipated creative collaboration between Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Timbaland and Pharrell Williams. Madonna performed a set at New York’s Roseland Ballroom on Wednesday April 30th, 2008 and will headline Radio 1’s Big Weekend, May 10th.
