By FYI Staff

Drake’s Certified Lover Boy remains at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart for the third consecutive week, once again picking up the highest on-demand streams for the week. It is his longest-running chart-topping album since Views spent 12 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 in 2016.


Lil Nas X’s first full-length album, Montero, debuts at No. 2 with the highest album sales and digital song sales and the second-highest on-demand stream total for the week. His EP 7 spent two weeks at No. 1 in 2019.

Kanye West’s Donda, The Kid Laroi’s F*ck Love and Doja Cat’s Planet Her each drop one position to Nos. 3, 4 and 5 respectively.

20-Song Long List Announced for New SOCAN Polaris Song Prize

The new accolade will award the best Canadian song chosen by a jury of the nation’s critics. Tracks by Kaytranada, Saya Gray, Mustafa, Snotty Nose Rez Kids and more are competing for the $10,000 prize.

For the first time in 2025, the Polaris Music Prize is going to a song.

The SOCAN Polaris Song Prize has unveiled its 20-nominee long list. Like the Polaris Music Prize, which honours one Canadian album based solely on artistic merit, this one does the same but for an individual track. Similarly, the Song Prize will be voted on by the members of the Polaris jury without regard to musical genre, label affiliation or commercial popularity.
