Alex Warren, One Of 2025's Breakout Acts, Scores His First No. 1
Alex Warren has spent a large chunk of 2025 dominating charts across several Western music markets. His breakout tune "Ordinary" propelled him to new heights, as the cut reached No. 1 in both the United Kingdom and the United States. The former YouTuber and musical talent quickly capitalized on that success by releasing his debut album You'll Be Alright, Kid earlier this month. The full-length is an expansion of Warren's earlier You'll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) EP. Now featuring "Ordinary" and several other popular singles, the collection is soaring on rankings everywhere. Alex Warren's First No. 1 Album The immediate success of the now-full-length earns Warren his first No. 1 album in the U.K., where it tops the Official Albums chart, which ranks the most-consumed full-lengths and EPs in the country. Just last week, when You'll Be Alright, Kid was still an EP, the title sat at No. 25, after previously peaking at No. 9. Sales and streams of all versions of You'll Be Alright, Kid, along with standout tracks like "On My Mind" with Rose and "Bloodline" with Jelly Roll, help send the project as high as it can go. You'll Be Alright, Kid Rises to No. 2 Warren's debut album also surges on several other rosters in the U.K., coming close to giving him a No. 1 on nearly every tally. You'll Be Alright, Kid hits a new peak of No. 2 on both the Official Albums Streaming and Official Albums Sales charts, while climbing to a new high of No. 3 on the Official Album Downloads list. You'll Be Alright, Kid Earns Alex Warren a Debut Top 10 The same release, which doubled in length to serve as Warren's debut full-length, also opens inside the top three on two additional tallies where he's never appeared before. You'll Be Alright, Kid starts at No. 2 on the Official Physical Albums chart and No. 3 on the Official Vinyl Albums ranking, earning Warren his first top 10 placement as he appears on the pair of lists for the very first time.

Russian and US space chiefs meet to discuss continued cooperation
MOSCOW (AP) — Russia's space chief has visited the United States to discuss plans for continued cooperation between Moscow and Washington on the International Space Station and lunar research with NASA's acting chief, the first such face-to-face meeting in more than seven years. Dmitry Bakanov, the director of the state space corporation Roscosmos, met Thursday with NASA's new acting administrator, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, on a visit to attend the planned launch of a U.S.-Japanese-Russian crew to the space station. The launch was delayed by weather until Friday. Roscosmos said Bakanov and Duffy discussed 'further work on the International Space Station, cooperation on lunar programs, joint exploration of deep space and continued cooperation on other space projects.' Once bitter rivals in the space race during the Cold War, Roscosmos and NASA cooperated on the space station and other projects. That relationship was beset with tensions after Moscow sent troops into Ukraine in 2022, but Washington and Moscow have continued to work together, with U.S. and Russian crews continuing to fly to the orbiting outpost on each country's spacecraft. Plans for broader cooperation, including possible Russian involvement in NASA's Artemis program of lunar research, have fallen apart. As Russia has become increasingly reliant on China for its energy exports and imports of key technology amid Western sanctions, Roscosmos has started cooperation with China on its prospective lunar mission. Speaking to Russian reporters after the talks with Duffy, Bakanov said that they agreed to keep working on keeping the space station in operation to the end of the decade. 'Our experts will now start working on those issues in details,' Bakanov said, praising Duffy for giving a green light for those contacts 'despite geopolitical tensions.' The Russian space chief added that he and Duffy will report the results of the meeting to Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump to secure their blessing for potential space cooperation. 'In view of the difficult geopolitical situation, we will need to receive the necessary clearance from the leaders of our countries,' Bakanov said. He added he invited Duffy to visit Moscow and the Russia-leased Baikonur launch facility in Kazakhstan for the launch of another Russia-U.S. crew to the space station scheduled for November. 'I will put my efforts into keeping the channel of cooperation between Russia and the U.S. open, and I expect NASA to do the same,' Bakanov said.
