GO ON & SAY IT, FRANKIE VENTER CLAIMS #1 TOP 20 AOTEAROA SINGLE

Olivia Dean’s The Art Of Loving remains at #1 on the Top 40 Albums Chart this week, less than one month out from her hotly anticipated Tāmaki Makaurau headline show, and Ella Langley remains at #1 on the Singles Top 40 with ‘Choosin' Texas’. Six60 also settle in at the head of the Aotearoa Albums Chart, with Right Here Right Now.

Over on the Aotearoa Singles Chart, however, 2025 AMA Best Pop Artist finalist Frankie Venter parachutes straight into the peak position – claiming the #1 spot with her new single ‘say it’. It’s Venter’s debut #1 single; she’s also the first wahine to top the Chart since Lorde achieved the feat in July 2025. The track dislodges Hori Shaw and Te Wehi’s ‘Ready To Ride’ from the top spot – and also leaps ahead of new tracks from the likes of Morgan Wallen (#3), Miley Cyrus (#4) and Troye Sivan (#6) to lead the Hot 40, as well as the Aotearoa Top 20, this wiki.

Te Tukutahi Tiketike 10 Te Reo Māori continues to be led by TAWAZ, Stan Walker and Hone, with their epic ‘Mānawa Maiea Matariki’ collab.
