A big week on the Official Chart lies ahead for London rapper Fredo who is on track to bag a flurry of placings including the week's highest new entry, following the release of his new fourth album Money Can’t Buy Happiness.
The singer and songwriter from Queen’s Park starts out just behind reigning chart queen Olivia Rodrigo at Number 2 on today’s Official Chart First Look, with brand new entry Money Talks ft. Dave. The pair topped the Official Singles Chart together back in 2018 on Funky Friday. See Fredo’s chart history.
Further down follows a new Fredo collaboration with late rapper Pop Smoke and Young Adz – Burner On Deck (11), and a further midweek entry at 14 - Ready ft. Summer Walker.
Meanwhile, US singer Olivia Rodrigo looks to be heading for a fourth week at Number 1 with Drivers License.
Newcomer and TikTok viral star Nathan Evans is currently holding firm at Number 3 after securing the highest-charting debut single for a Scottish artist in nearly a decade on Friday with sea shanty remix Wellerman with British producer/DJs 220 Kid and Billen Ted.
Completing the First Look Top 5 is rising Australian rapper The Kid Laroi’s Without You (4) and Don’t Play (5) by Annie-Marie, KSI and Digital Farm Animals.
Elsewhere Irish DJ and producer Shane Codd climbs two places back into the midweek Top 10 (9) with Get Out Of My Head.
The highest climber of the week after 48 hours is Friday by Riton x Nightcrawlers ft. Mufasa and Hypeman, up 14 places to land just outside the Top 20 midweek at Number 23.
The final Official Chart Top 40 will be unveiled exclusively on BBC Radio 1’s Official Chart with Scott Mills this Friday from 4pm, with the full Official Singles Chart Top 100 published on OfficialCharts.com from 5.45pm.

I do hope SUMMER WALKER can finally get her first Top 20!! She is as talented as DOJA CAT and LIZZO but had so far no much success in the UK
GS
i cant believe playing games didnt get higher! what a tune
thierry henon
indeed! at least it made it to the Top 20 in THE USA but still should have been a Top 5..so deserved it!!
JoeNak
I wish the original Wellerman was the more successful version. The remix just waters down any uniqueness.
⁉️
100% agree, it’s not even close to be honest.
Piran
The best part for me has to be 'Get Out My Head' returning to the Top 10 though! :D
EDIT: OMG... I didn't see that 'Friday' was the highest climber of the week! I think I'm actually even more obsessed with that banger at the moment, haha.
Piran
I'm also happy to see 'Wellerman' so stable! It's certainly one of my favourite TikTok crazes so far, haha. :)
Piran
I wasn't expecting such a big week for Fredo here! :O
I don't think he'll take the #1 on the singles chart from Olivia, but he'll probably debut at #1 on the albums chart.

PN
I did, to be honest - especially the song with Dave at number 2. British rappers are getting so much attention these days, and after Funky Friday, Money Talks will challenge for number 1 (but unlike last time, it will NOT get to number 1 against most of the odds)
Piran
Yeah, even after a month at #1, nobody's even close to catching up with 'Drivers License' just yet! :P
