The fresh track samples the late Rick James’ 1981 hit “Super Freak,” and is lifted from Minaj’s forthcoming fifth studio album.
Its strong first week isn’t enough to topple Harry Styles’ “As It Was,” which returns to the summit, up 2-1, for a seventh non-consecutive week atop the ARIA Chart.
On the latest frame, published Friday (Aug. 19) “As It Was” finishes ahead of Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)” (down 1-2) and Steve Lacy’s “Bad Habit” (holding at No. 2), respectively.
Styles’ Harry’s House also rules the national albums survey for a sixth consecutive week, up 3-1 in its 13th week, meaning the British singer doubles-up with Australia’s main chart crowns.
Finally, beloved Australian country star Troy Cassar-Daley snags the top debut on the ARIA Albums Chart for the week of Aug. 22 with 50 Songs 50 Towns. It’s new at No. 8.
