Following last week when four new releases entered the top ten, it is a light week for new entries.


Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour spends its fifth straight week at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, again picking up the highest on-demand streams and digital song downloads for the week.

Last week’s No. 2 album, Polo G’s Hall of Fame, holds at No. 2, The Weeknd’s Highlights and Justin Bieber’s Justice both move ahead one spot, to Nos. 3 and 4 respectively, and Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia skips 7-5.

The top new entry for the week belongs to African-American/Filipino-American singer-songwriter H.E.R.’s first full-length studio album, Back of My Mind, at No. 32. It is Gabriella Sarmiento Wilson’s highest charting release so far, surpassing the No. 58 peak of her self-titled compilation in 2018.
