The Kid LAROI's new single, Love Again, from his upcoming album The First Time, has debuted at #11 on the Radio Monitor Hot 50. The young Gamilaraay artist only features once on the mainstream radio chart, with his Justin Bieber-assisted hit STAY officially off the chart after 81 weeks. The top 10 is more of the usual, with Taylor Swift's Anti-Hero still at #1, Miley Cyrus's latest single, Flowers, up in second place, Ed Sheeran's Celestial in third place, Lil Nas X's League Of Legends World Anthem, Star Walkin at #4, and Lewis Capaldi's Forget Me at #5.
Directly below Capaldi are Post Malone and Roddy Rich's Cooped Up, Until I Found You by Stephen Sanchez, Sam Smith and Kim Petras's hit, Unholy, Meghan Trainor's Made You Look and Miss You by Oliver Tree & Robin Schulz.
Aside from The Kid LAROI at #11, only six other Australian artists appear on the Hot 50. They are Shouse with their Jason Derulo collab, Never Let You Go at #17, Dean Lewis at #18 with How Do I Say Goodbye, PNAU and Troye Sivan are at #39 with You Know What I Need, Amy Shark's Only Wanna Be With You is #32, and Vance Joy finds Clarity at #42.
Flowers has moved down to #4 on the TikTok chart. After spending two weeks up top, Miley Cyrus has been beaten by sped-up versions of Miguel's Sure Thing and George Ezra's Green Green Grass. Hey Mickey by Baby Tate follows, as does Her Way (sped up) by PARTYNEXTDOOR and Big Boss Vette. The Family Guy Main Title returns for a second week - what TikTok trend keeps Family Guy circling back?
