The claim comes via music data firm Luminate, but no sales figures, chart positions or store confirmations accompany the headline, leaving the scale of the surge unknown.

Miley Cyrus' album 'Bass Persuades' has reached No. 1 on the United States album chart this week, according to UPI. The release debuts at the top spot, with an album by Ella taking the No. 2 position. The strong debut has prompted discussion among pop music fans about the album's chart performance.

Candidates in the Los Angeles mayoral race, including Karen Bass and Rick Caruso, are making a final push to win over undecided voters ahead of the election. The contest remains closely contested, with both campaigns focusing outreach on persuadable residents as polling shows a significant share of the electorate still up for grabs.
