Rapper Sido (42) has climbed to the top of the album charts for the fifth time in his career. As GfK Entertainment reports, his latest work “Paul” has taken first place in the official German charts in the first week since its release. With this, Sido replaces the Christmas album “Not So Silent Night” by singer Sarah Connor (42) on the one, which now has to be content with second place. Third place goes to “Who’s in a bad mood here” by baritone singer Max Raabe (60).
“Paul” is the ninth solo studio album by former mask rapper Sido. His works “I and no mask” (2019), “30-11-80” (2013) and “I and my mask” (2008) also reached first place in the album charts. His work “Royal Bunker” (2017), a collaboration with his rap colleague Kool Savas (47), also did this. In “Paul” Sido processes, among other things, his former drug addiction, which temporarily forced him to stay in a rehab clinic.
The top five of the album hit list is completed by US pop star Taylor Swift (33) with “Midnights” and “Christmas” by Canadian-Italian jazz singer Michael Bublé (47).
