Haitian-Canadian Pop Singer Tedy Debuts on Billboard Canada Airplay Charts With 'I Hope'

Tedy is triumphantly hitting the airplay charts.

The Haiti-born, Montreal-based pop singer debuts on the Billboard Canada CHR/Top 40 airplay chart with “I Hope” at No. 34. It’s a fresh, anthemic ballad that showcases his signature raw, emotionally charged storytelling and soaring vocals.

Produced by Dan Book (blink-182, Britney Spears) and Jesse Mason (Chance Peña, BLOND:ISH), the song tells the story of a complicated situationship that unravels into heartbreak. The tension in the song is clear in both the lyrics and the emotionally charged performance and production.

“It’s a diary,” says Tedy. “That’s what my music is. If you want to keep up with me, just listen. You’ll hear exactly where I was and where I am now. With 'I Hope,' I was trying to balance actually having a personal life for the first time ever. There’s power in being real and admitting when you’re not being seen.”

"I Hope" is the first taste of an upcoming album, set to release in late 2025 on Sony Music Canada.

Two spots down on CHR/Top 40, Canadian EDM duo Loud Luxury debuts at No. 36 with “R U Down?”

Over big stage beats, Andrew Fedyk and Joe Depace ask: “Are you down, down, down, down?” as they seek out honesty and transparency from a potential lover.

Released in late June, the track marks the duo’s first major label release with Republic Records. “It’s an honour to represent dance music at a major label and work with some of the best in the business,” they shared on Instagram.

At the top of the month, the pair played “R U Down?” among other hits at Toronto’s Veld Music Festival and Calgary’s Chasing Summer Festival.

This week, the rock airplay charts notch a few new debuts from Canadian bands. Ontario rockers Finger Eleven team up with American band Filter on “Blue Sky Mystery,” which arrives on Mainstream Rock at No. 38. Finger Eleven now have two songs on the chart, with "Adrenaline" moving up to No. 16.

Modern Rock sees two new entries for Fake Shark’s “Monster” at No. 36, and “Frustrated” by Rebelle at No. 38.

Topping this week's radio charts is Alex Warren’s “Ordinary," as he continues his No.1 streak on All-Format, Canada CHR/Top 40 and Hot AC. While Ed Sheeran’s “Azizam” spent the past two weeks at No. 1 on AC, Warren has claimed the top spot once again. At No. 2, Shaboozey’s “Good News” coasts on All-Format while Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” and Benson Boone’s “Sorry I’m Here For Someone Else” notch a second week just shy of No. 1 on CHR/Top 40 and Hot AC, respectively.

American country star Thomas Rhett hits No. 1 on Country with “After All The Bars Are Closed.”

On Mainstream Rock, The Foo Fighters' “Today’s Song” comes out on top, bumping down Canadian rockers Three Day Grace’s “Apologies” to No. 4.

Toronto band The Beaches earns an 11th week at No. 1 on Modern Rock with “Last Girls at the Party.”
