With his recent triple drop, Drake establishes a new record on Australia’s albums chart.

The Canadian hip-hop star dominates the ARIA Albums Chart as Iceman debuts at No. 1, Maid Of Honour bows at No. 5 and Habibti is new at No. 6 (all via Republic/Universal). And with that feat, he becomes the first artist to crack the top 10 with three new albums in the same frame since the ARIA Charts were first published in 1983.

That bests previous efforts by Guns N’ Roses and Bruce Springsteen, according to ARIA. GN’R landed a double in 1991 when Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II debuted at No. 1 and No. 2, respectively, in the same week, while The Boss did the same the following year, in 1992, with Human Touch (No. 3) and Lucky Town (No.6).

Drizzy now boasts 16 solo and collaborative top 10 albums including, including leaders Views (from 2016), Scorpion (2018), Dark Lane Demo Tapes (2020), Certified Lover Boy (2021) and For All The Dogs (2023).

Also making a strong start on the ARIA Albums Chart is Genesis Owusu, the beloved Aussie rock-star whose third album Redstar Wu & The Worldwide Scourge (Ourness), opens its account at No. 3. That’s a career-best effort for the Canberra-raised artist, after his multiple award-winning 2021 debut Smiling With Now Teeth peaked at No. 27, and 2023 followup Struggler went to No. 4.

Further down the ARIA Chart for Monday, May 25, the complete version of British emo artist Yungblud’s IDOLS (Interscope/Universal) pops at No. 27; rising L.A. pop-country singer Stella Lefty’s Is This Heaven? (Warner Music) is at No. 28; and homegrown rock outfit Rose Carleo Band bows at No. 34 with their debut LP 42 Days (Checked Label Services).

The Drake dump makes a major impact on the ARIA Singles Chart, too. All told, 15 Drake singles enter the ARIA Top 50 this week, including five in the top 10: “National Treasures” at No. 4, “Janice STFU” at No. 5, “Whisper My Name” at No. 6, “Make Them Cry” at No. 9 and “Dust” at No. 10.

Drake is closing in on 100 career top 50 hits in these parts. Including collaborations, he boasts 98 appearances on the chart, including No. 1s with “One Dance” featuring Wizkid and Kyla from 2016, and “God’s Plan,” “Nice For What” and “In My Feelings” in 2018.

At the top of the leaderboard is Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” (Sony Music), which enters a second week at No. 1.
