Robbie celebrated his latest milestone with the release of ‘XXV’, featuring re-recorded orchestral versions of his biggest hits and personal favourite tracks.
The track debuted at No. 1, giving the hitmaker a record 14th solo chart-topper, which saw Robbie surpasses Elvis Presley as the solo artist with the most UK No. 1 albums.
“Thank you to everyone who’s supported the album: everyone who’s bought it, streamed it, downloaded it and reviewed it,” he said in celebration of the milestone.
“I’m so pleased that it’s gone to No. 1, and whilst it feels strange to be receiving an award during these sombre times, I wanted to thank you all for your support and dedicate this to the fans, who I never take for granted. I really appreciate it, thank you so much.”
In a review of the album, Retro Pop said ‘XXV’ “marries Robbie’s classic sound with nuances found in his swing repertoire, celebrating the past 25 years and opening the door to the next era in his career.”
‘XXV’ is available now.
