By FYI Staff

Young Thug scores his first chart-topping album as So Much Fun debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart with 8,000 total consumption units and scoring the highest audio-on-demand stream total for the week. It is the first time he has reached the top ten as a solo artist, previously peaking at No. 5 on Super Slimey, his 2017 collaboration with Future.


Ed Sheeran’s No. 6 Collaborations Project remains at 2, Billie Eilish’s When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go stays at 3, and Shawn Mendes’ self-titled album holds at 4. Mendes’ duet with Camila Cabello on Senorita jumps to No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart, his second chart-topping song and her first digital No. 1.

Quality Control’s Quality Control: Control the Streets, Vol. 2 debuts at 5, surpassing the No. 17 peak of Volume 1 in December 2017.

Last week’s number one album, Slipknot’s We Are Not Your Kind drops to No. 6 but once again is the week’s top seller.

Other debuts in the top 50 include Illenium’s Ascend, at 12; Killswitch Engage’s Atonement, at 17; and A$AP Ferg’s Floor Seats, at 38.

Despite falling out of the No. 1 spot on the Digital Songs chart, Lil Nas X’s Old Town Road spends its 20th straight week at the top of the Streaming Songs chart.

CNE 2026 Bell SOUNDSTAGE Lineup: Charlotte Day Wilson, JoJo, Finger Eleven and More

As part of its partnership with NXNE and a renewed focus on live music, CNE will also welcome a special soon-to-be revealed global headliner presented by Billboard Canada on Aug. 28.

The Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) is embracing its musical roots with a high-profile lineup for 2026.

The beloved long-running fair, baptized The Ex by Torontonians, has unveiled the full list of artists who will be headlining the newly-named Bell SOUNDSTAGE at the Bandshell to celebrate the event's 147th edition. Canadian stars like Charlotte Day Wilson and Finger Eleven as well as international pop star JoJo have been added to this year's programming, which reflects a diverse mix of renowned names and rising stars across a multitude of genres including pop, hip-hop, Punjabi music and soca, among others. They join previously announced acts like Lights, Lupe Fiasco, Shaggy and more.

This year, the exhibition is partnering with Toronto music festival NXNE, to modernize its musical programming with chart-topping artists and newer acts, and revamping the Bandshell as the Bell SOUNDSTAGE. “Music is such a massive part of who we are,” Mark Holland, CEO of the CNE, told Billboard Canada in April during his Executive of the Week interview. "Connecting everybody to that is a democratic mission that we are really invested in."
