Welcome to This Week In Pop.


It’s a huge week of album debuts on the ARIA Charts as YUNGBLUD takes the top spot and Aussie act The Butterfly Effect crack the top five, while Nicki Minaj makes it to #1 on the Singles Chart.

Unashamedly out-there British rocker, YUNGBLUD, debuts at #1 with his self-titled album. The artist’s third studio album is also a chart peak, following 'Weird!', which peaked at #6 on the Albums Chart in 2020.

American thrash metal act, Megadeth, are back with their 16th studio album 'The Sick, The Dying... And The Dead!' which takes the second spot on the Albums Chart; while Aussies The Butterfly Effect debut at #4 with 'IV'.

On the Singles Chart, Nicki Minaj’s 'Super Freaky Girl' spends its first week in the #1 spot.
