Sam Smith And Kim Petras Make History As They Hit No. 1 In The UK
A new No.1 song is trending in the UK, and the musicians behind the tune have made history as they conquer the competitive tally. Sam Smith and Kim Petras had collaborated on a new song, “Unholy.” The music didn’t just reach the top spot on the UK songs chart this frame but debuted there. This is a sure-fire sign that not only do these two incredible artists have a real hit on their hands, but also that interest in their duet was incredibly high. Their fan bases had acted fast to support the tune. “Unholy” is Smith’s eighth No.1 single in the UK, while it is the first for Petra.
It is time for both to celebrate, as sending a tune to the top of the charts is always a reason for the musicians behind the music to celebrate. It is also a significant moment for the entire LGBTQ community.
It is Smith’s first No.1 hit in his home country since coming out as non-binary. All the previous well-known chart-toppers of Smith rose the ranks before he had bravely announced to the world that they no longer identified as male. Since then, Smith has racked up several wins, but none of them had climbed to the peak position.
Petras is either known to be the first or one of the first openly transgender musicians to hit No.1 in the UK. She has been a favorite among LGBTQ fans for several years, but until now, she has been unable to manage a real quantifiable hit that has reached the masses. Unholy might end up being the song that catapults her to new levels of fame, and this one track could open many more doors.
This song is likely to be the second official single from Smith’s upcoming but as yet untitled album. Smith released “Love Me More “in April, but it failed to break into the top 40 in most markets, including the UK. In comparison, Unholy has opened in the top 10 in several calls.
