Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album spends its eighth non-consecutive week at the top of the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, and again picks up the highest on-demand stream total for the week.


The Weeknd’s The Highlights holds at No. 2 with the highest digital song download total for the week. Pop Smoke’s Shoot for the Stars Aim for the Moon, Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia and The Kid Laroi’s F*ck Love all hold their positions from the last week, at Nos. 3 through 5 respectively.

The top new entry of the week belongs to Kings of Leon’s When You See Yourself at No. 6, which garnered the highest album sales total. It is the group’s first album since 2016’s Walls debuted at No. 1.

Notorious B.I.G.’s Greatest Hits bullets 76-45, helped by the release of Netflix’s documentary Biggie: I Got A Story To Tell. It is the album’s highest chart position since debuting at No. 21 in January 2016.

‘Protect the Prize’: The Polaris Music Prize Undergoes Its Biggest Period of Change

Now entering its third decade, the Canadian critic’s prize has expanded its voting pool, adjusted to financial constraints and expanded to award both albums and songs. After years defined by its refined focus, the changes mark a major expansion of the organization’s mission.

In 2025, the Polaris Music Prize celebrated its 20th anniversary. Entering its third decade, the award is undergoing what might be its biggest period of change. From funding to voting process, the organization is continuing to evolve.

The cultural not-for-profit organization has spent the better part of two decades creating a space in the industry for Canadian acts to be recognized based solely artistic merit, rather than sales, genre or support from a record label. Founded in the 2000s as Canada's answer to the Mercury Prize, the organization became a registered Canadian charity in 2017.
