ADÉLA impressively tops this week’s Billboard Philippines Hot 100, dated August 29, 2026, with her breakthrough hit, “Ain’t In LA,” rising to the No. 1 spot.

Released under Capital Records on July 23, 2026, the pop anthem has gradually climbed the Hot 100 charts since its first-ever entry at No. 26, dated August 15, 2026.

The track instantly went viral after its release as TikTok users reference the phrase ADÉLA used on one of her social media videos — “can’t always be in LA, someone has to hold it down in Bratislava, Slovakia” — to celebrate their respective overlooked hometowns.

Serving as a pre-release from the Slovak artist’s forthcoming debut album, PRIMA, it arrives as the third single to be revealed, following “KGB” and “Red Bottoms” earlier in the year.

With her latest track increasingly growing in popularity, ADÉLA slowly builds on her momentum with the upcoming record as well as international festival appearances.

Joining ADÉLA on this week’s Top 10, fitterkarma‘s “Kalapastangan” and nicole‘s “Panaginip” are bumped to the No. 2 and 3 spots, while Olivia Rodrigo climbs to No. 4 with “the cure.” Cup of Joe land at No. 5 with “Multo,” followed by Skusta Clee and Flow G‘s collaboration, “Since Day One,” placing at No. 6.

Another track from fitterkarma, “Pag-Ibig ay Kanibalismo II,” lands at No. 7, with Kyle Raphael’s “Libu-Libong Buwan” at No. 8. Rodrigo’s second entry, “drop dead,” and Ariana Grande‘s “hate that i made you love me” round out this week’s top lineup at No. 9 and 10, respectively.
