The UK R&B Chart is a weekly chart, first introduced in October 1994, that ranks the 40 biggest-selling singles and albums that are classified in the R&B genre in the United Kingdom. The chart is compiled by the Official Charts Company,[1] and is based on sales of CDs, downloads, vinyl and other formats over the previous seven days.[2]

The following are the number-one albums of 2011.
