NIKI has made her debut within the Top 5 of the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 chart.
The beloved Indonesian singer-songwriter enters the No. 4 position on the chart with the growing popularity of her rendition of Phil Collins’ classic track, “You’ll Be In My Heart,” from the 1999 Disney animated film Tarzan. The track jumps quite a few spots from its position on last week’s Philippines Hot 100 rankings, rising from No. 24 to No. 15, and now No. 4 over the past three weeks.
The song’s viral popularity across a variety of social media platforms, such as TikTok and Instagram, has led to a newfound resurgence of appreciation for her version of the song, despite being released all the way back in 2022. Across such platforms, NIKI’s cover has been used as the soundtrack to various edits for K-drama storylines, story times from other users, and more.
Elsewhere on the Philippines Hot 100, Earl Agustin still reigns supreme at the No. 1 spot of the chart with his hit single “Tibok,” while Cup of Joe ascend all the way to No. 2 with their track “Multo.” At No. 3 is Amiel Sol’s “Sa Bawat Sandali,” with Dionela’s “Marilag” still unchanged at No. 5. Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s chart-topper “luther” bows down at No. 6, while Ariana Grande’s “twilight zone” and “intro (end of the world)” make their way to No. 7 and No. 8 of the chart. JENNIE’s “like JENNIE” descends three spots to No. 9, while HELLMERRY’s “My Day” positions itself at No. 10.
