Reb Fountain leads the Aotearoa Albums Chart this week with her new record How Love Bends, which also lands at #6 on the Top 40 while its tracks dominate the Aotearoa Hot Chart. It’s the artist’s third Top 10 album, and second #1 on the Aotearoa Chart – having also debuted at #1 in 2021 with her award-winning breakthrough album Iris.

Lady Gaga tops the Top 40 this week with her return to form, MAYHEM. It’s the ninth Top 5 album for the pop kween – and Taylor Swift (21) and Pink (6) are the only female artists to have had more #1s on the Chart. Gaga is also all over the Hot 40 this week, with four tracks from MAYHEM sitting comfortably at its top end.

Bay of Plenty artist Te Wehi heads the Top 20 Aotearoa Singles Chart for a second week with ‘Unaware’ – the slow burner first charted in October 2024 and finally managed to bump the likes of Hori Shaw and Shane Walker, who have reigned for months. Three other Te Wehi tracks also chart in this week’s Top 20.

Local pop artist Riiki Reid is #1 on the Aotearoa Hot Chart with dreamy electro ballad ‘Over Romantic’, and Doechii’s ‘Anxiety’ replaces the Sleepy Hallow version at #1 on the Hot 40. Kendrick Lamar and Six60 hold onto the #1 position on the Top 40 Singles Chart and Top 20 Aotearoa Albums Chart respectively.
