BETTY-ANNE'S BACK, OLIVIA'S TOP 40 RUN CONTINUES
Olivia Dean leads the Top 40 again, clocking up 22 weeks at #1 with The Art Of Loving – while the last #1 on the Singles Chart that wasn’t ‘Man I Need’ was ‘Last Christmas’, in the final week of 2025.
There’s a new #1 on the Aotearoa Albums Chart though, the one and only Betty-Anne debuts her new solo album Slow Burn in the top spot. The longtime lead vocalist of Ardijah lands ahead of new entries from Sola Rosa (#3) and Sid Diamond (#4).
Son & Water break the dominance of 2026 Aotearoa Music Awards finalists Hori Shaw and Te Wehi as their cover of the Eagles classic 'Hotel California' climbs to the top of the Aotearoa Singles Chart. The trio also break into the Top 40 Singles Chart at #40.
Meanwhile, Jaya scores her second Aotearoa Hot Chart #1 with ‘I Got It’. The Auckland-based singer first topped the Chart back in May 2024, with ‘Me He Korokoro Tui’.
Over on the Catalogue Chart, as Justin Bieber makes headlines c/o his Coachella performance, his back catalogue sees a huge boost. Biebs currently has six tracks in the Catalogue Singles Chart and two albums in the Top 10 of the Catalogue Albums Chart. Two tracks also re-enter the Top 40 Singles Chart, while the artist’s 2025 album SWAG returns to the Top 10 of the Albums Top 40 after a gap of more than six months.
Te Matatini and Te Kuru Marutea keep the lead on the Tukutahi Tiketike 10 Te Reo Māori this wiki, with ‘Kei Wareware i a Tātou’.
