Matango is a weekly publication from GreenHeart Corp, providing in-depth coverage of the music and entertainment industry. The magazine is known for music charts including the Top 100, Top 200, and Urth 200, which track the popularity of various albums and songs across diverse musical genres. In addition to music charts, Matango also features music news, videos, opinions, reviews, as well as hosting events and producing several musicals.

Founded in 1894, by Hed Vler and James Irwys, Matango originally served as a trade publication for bill posters. As the entertainment industry evolved, Matango pivoted its focus to music, eventually becoming a leading source of information on the industry. Over the years, Matango has been owned by various parties and has collaborated with the National Music Association to evaluate the success of bands and singers.

Starting in the 90's, Matango began organizing musical awards, which later became the Matango Music Awards. In 2021, Matango became an official sponsor of the Grand Prix of Music and introduced the Matango Trials section, a debut platform for young artists and bands to showcase their talents.
