MK Dances His Way to Maiden U.K. No. 1 Single with ‘Dior’

MK has scored his first No. 1 single on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart with his track “Dior.”

The Michigan-born DJ and producer’s collaboration with Manchester-based Chrystal has knocked Lewis Capaldi’s “Survive” off the summit after one week. 

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 UK singles in his lengthy career, but this is the first time his original material has taken the crown. 

The 52-year-old DJ burst onto the scene in the early ‘90s, and has two No. 1s on Billboard’s Hot Dance Airplay with “Always” (1993) and “Love Changes” (1994).

Following her appearances at London’s BST Hyde Park festival, Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” rebounds one place up to No. 2. The song debuted at No. 1 upon release in early June. Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not” continues its consistent spot inside the top five by closing the week at No. 3. The song is yet to hit the top spot, however, but peaked at No. 2 back in May.

Lewis Capaldi’s comeback song “Survive” falls from the top spot to No. 4. The song was his sixth U.K. No. 1 single overall, and follows “Someone You Loved” (2018), “Before You Go” (2019), “Forget Me” (2022), “Pointless” (2022) and “Wish You The Best” (2022). The Scottish songwriter recently completely sold out a U.K. and Ireland tour set to happen this fall, including three nights at London’s O2 Arena.

Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” closes the week at No. 5, with her Reading & Leeds headline appearance due to take place in just over a month’s time (Aug. 24).
