List of number-one Te Reo Māori singles from the 2020s
This is the Recorded Music NZ list of number-one singles in New Zealand sung in Te Reo Māori during the 2020s decade (the Te Reo Māori O Te Rārangi 10 O Runga chart, also known as the Top 10 Te Reo Māori Singles). The first chart was released on 19 June 2021.[3] The chart was launched to celebrate musicians releasing songs in Te Reo Māori, and in order to be eligible, a song needs be sung in at least 70% Māori.[3] Songs are tracked on the chart using sales, streaming and airplay.[4]
Three musical acts have topped the chart: Stan Walker in collaboration with his niece Ibanez Maeva, Dunedin band Six60 and Gisborne choir Ka Hao, in collaboration with singer and producer Rob Ruha.
