Myshaan has become the first local act to top the Tukutahi Arotini 40 | Hot 40 in 2024, also landing at the top of the Hot Aotearoa Chart with their track ‘Carry My Heart’. The tune is #3 on the Tukutahi Tiketike 20 Ōkawa o Aotearoa | Aotearoa Singles Chart – while the artist’s previous single ‘Sway’ is #19.

Elsewhere, it’s starting to sound a lot like Christmas – Mariah, Bublé and Wham! are all back in the Top 40 with their festive classics, as are the likes of Kelly Clarkson and Brenda Lee.

Triggar Happy debuts at the top of the Kōpae Tiketike 20 Ōkawa o Aotearoa | Top 20 Aotearoa Albums Chart, with their first full-length record Talk Is Cheap. An unlikely merging of country rock and hip hop, the release is also #3 on the Official Top 40.
