Fredo claims the highest new entries on both the Official Irish Albums and Singles Charts with Money Can’t Buy Happiness and Money Talks
Dermot Kennedy and Olivia Rodrigo hold at their respective Number 1 positions.
Fredo takes out the highest new entry on both the Official Irish Albums and Singles Chart this week.
The rapper from London streams his way to Number 2 on the Official Irish Albums Chart with Money Can’t Buy Happiness, which in turn marks his highest-charting album in Ireland by quite some margin - his 2019 debut studio record Third Avenue peaked at Number 28.
Over on the Official Irish Singles Chart, Fredo claims three Top 50 entries. Money Talks featuring Dave occupies Number 8, marking the first Top 10 single for both artists. Burner On Deck with Pop Smoke and Young Adz opens at Number 33, and Back To Basics climbs 10 places to Number 39.

Number 1 on the Official Irish Singles Chart for a fourth week is US singer and actress Olivia Rodrigo with Drivers License.
Lifting two places to Number 5 to enter the Top 5 for the first time is Cavan producer and DJ Shane Codd with Get Out My Head. Entering the Top 10 for the first time at Number 9 is Doja Cat’s Streets, now her third Irish top flight hit following last year’s Number 4 smash Say So and Top 10 hit Boss Bitch from the Birds of Prey movie soundtrack.
TikTok sea shanty track Wellerman by Nathan Evans, 220 Kid and Billen Ted is this week’s highest climber, advancing 28 slots to Number 16. A new entry in the Top 20 – also thanks to TikTok – is Afrobeats track Jerusalema by Master KG ft. Nomcebo Zikode, this week’s most downloaded song. Jerusalema has reached Number 1 in Belgium, Hungary, The Netherlands, Switzerland and Master KG’s native South Africa.
Dance anthems Friday from Riton, Nightcrawlers and Mufasa (35) and Your Love (9PM) from ATB, Topic and A7S (44) are brand new entries this week, and Older by Kildare newcomer Lea Heart returns to the Top 50 (49).
