Jake Bugg has said that it is his job to keep "X Factor sh*t" away from the top of the charts.
The singer-songwriter beat former X Factor champion Leona Lewis to the number one album spot yesterday (October 21) with his self-titled debut record.
"I guess it proves my point – people still want to hear guitar music. It's my job to keep that X Factor sh*t off the top of the charts," he told NME.
Bugg knocked Mumford & Sons' Babel off the top to number two, while Leona Lewis's third studio album Glassheart debuted at three.
After Rita Ora's number one album in early September, the subsequent artists to reach the top spot have all been guitar-based acts: The Vaccines, The xx, The Killers, Mumford & Sons, Muse and now Jake Bugg.
Radio 1 DJ Zane Lowe tweeted after Bugg's win: "Massive congratulations to @JakeBugg - music wins."

Now I'm not really much of a fan of Leona but who does this little dog think he is gloating like that? He won't last long with that attitude. I didn't even know who he was until yesterday. Anyway his album didn't even sell that many copies so there's nothing to really brag about
