Camila Cabello's album debuts at No 1 on Billboard music charts


  • English
  • Arabic

American-Cuban singer-songwriter Camila Cabello is the first woman in three years to top the Billboard 200 chart with her debut full-length album Camila.

Camila, which released on January 12, landed the first position on the Billboard 200 chart since Meghan Trainor's Title on January 31 in 2015, reports billboard.com.

Billboard is a cult magazine for musicians worldwide.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the US, based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

The new chart was posted on the website on Tuesday.

Cabello was earlier a member of the female vocal group Fifth Harmony, which she left in December 2016.

The Havanna singer, 20, also happens to be the youngest individual to debut at No. 1 with a full-length album since 2015, when a 16-year-old Shawn Mendes opened at the first position with Handwritten on May 2, 2015.

Watch out for our review of her album coming out later this week

Fresh faces in UAE side

Khalifa Mubarak (24) An accomplished centre-back, the Al Nasr defender’s progress has been hampered in the past by injury. With not many options in central defence, he would bolster what can be a problem area.

Ali Salmeen (22) Has been superb at the heart of Al Wasl’s midfield these past two seasons, with the Dubai club flourishing under manager Rodolfo Arrubarrena. Would add workrate and composure to the centre of the park.

Mohammed Jamal (23) Enjoyed a stellar 2016/17 Arabian Gulf League campaign, proving integral to Al Jazira as the capital club sealed the championship for only a second time. A tenacious and disciplined central midfielder.

Khalfan Mubarak (22) One of the most exciting players in the UAE, the Al Jazira playmaker has been likened in style to Omar Abdulrahman. Has minimal international experience already, but there should be much more to come.

Jassim Yaqoub (20) Another incredibly exciting prospect, the Al Nasr winger is becoming a regular contributor at club level. Pacey, direct and with an eye for goal, he would provide the team’s attack an extra dimension.
