He is now the artist with the most number one albums in UK chart history, surpassing the record held by The Beatles. The only solo studio album released by Robbie not to hit the top spot was 2009's Reality Killed The Video Star, which peaked at number two. Speaking exclusively to Official Charts, Robbie says "BRITPOP is the record I've always wanted to make, and seeing it become my 16th Number 1 album means everything to me. Thank you to all the fans who have been with me every step of the way. You've made my dreams come true."

The only person who holds more? The Beatles' Paul McCartney with 23. This could likely be the next record in Robbie's sights! Britpop marks a career defining era for the global superstar, one which actually pays homage to the music he wanted to initially make as a solo artist as well as the glorious sounds of the 90s. We described the album as "less like a standard album and more like a mission statement: Robbie Williams leaning fully into his influences, reshaping them through his own unmistakable theatrical flair, and reminding us that - even decades into his career - he can still surprise, provoke, and genuinely delight."
