Olivia Dean Triumphs Over The Kid LAROI for Australia’s Chart Title

Olivia Dean continues her impressive performance on the ARIA Chart, maintaining the number one spot with her album, “The Art of Loving.” This marks her seventh non-consecutive week at the top. Additionally, her hit single “Man I Need” has now secured its place at number one for an incredible ninth week.

Olivia Dean Makes ARIA Chart History

According to ARIA statistics, Dean’s album achieves a significant milestone as the longest reigning title by an English female artist since Adele’s “30,” which also held the top position for seven weeks in 2021-2022. This reinforces Dean’s standing in the Australian music scene.

The Kid LAROI’s Strong Comeback

The latest releases also highlight the emergence of The Kid LAROI. His new album, “Before I Forget,” debuts at number two. The Sydney-born, Los Angeles-based artist previously topped the ARIA Chart in 2021 with his mixtape “F*ck Love,” becoming the youngest Australian solo artist to achieve this feat at just 17 years old.

“Before I Forget” follows his earlier album, “The First Time,” which peaked at number three. LAROI returned to Australia for an exclusive performance last November as part of a Spotify showcase. This was a precursor to the 2025 ARIA Week, underscoring his presence in the local music industry.

Notable Chart Entries

Zach Bryan’s “Heaven On Top” debuts at number four, marking his sixth studio album.
Yungblud’s “Idols” sees a slight decline from its peak but remains a popular choice.
Steph Strings enters the top 20 for the first time with her debut album “Feel Alive,” landing at number 17.

On the ARIA Singles Chart, Olivia Dean’s “Man I Need” is making waves like Miley Cyrus’s “Flowers,” which held the top position for 12 weeks earlier this year. Among other notable mentions, Djo’s “End Of Beginning” is experiencing a resurgence, moving up to number three. Djo, also known for his role in “Stranger Things,” is seeing renewed interest as fans engage with his music.

Other Emerging Artists

Bruno Mars makes a solid entry with “I Just Might,” debuting just outside the top ten at number 11. This addition contributes to his impressive record of 22 ARIA top 20 hits.

Sienna Spiro’s “Die On This Hill” jumps to number 29.
Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” ascends to number 30 for her first top 40 hit.

While only a couple of homegrown songs impact the top 50, Sonny Fodera’s collaboration with D.O.D and Poppy Baskcomb, “Think About Us,” enters at number 48. Tame Impala’s “Dracula” slips to number 50, illustrating the ever-changing landscape of the Australian music charts.

In conclusion, Olivia Dean’s reign on the ARIA Charts is a testament to her artistry and appeal, while rising stars like The Kid LAROI and others continue to push boundaries within the Australian music scene.
