Source: Apple Music Top Songs chart for the South African storefront, via Apple's Marketing Tools RSS feed. South African entries selected by verified eligibility record; official order preserved among them. Data accessed 2026-08-24.

Derived from Apple Music's official South African chart: non-South African entries are removed and the official order is otherwise preserved. A credit counts as South African only when it matches a verified Viranova artist profile — entries we cannot verify are excluded rather than guessed, so a qualifying song can be missing while its credit is unprofiled.
