Gracie Abrams has notched her first career No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, with her third studio effort, "Daughter From Hell," debuting atop the Aug. 1-dated chart. This marks a milestone for the singer-songwriter, whose previous record, "The Secret of Us," had peaked at No. 2 in July 2024, and follows two charting Hot 100 singles, "Hit the Wall" and "Look at My Life," that preceded the album's release.
The album earned 124,000 equivalent album units in the US in the week ending 23 July, Abrams' best week yet, according to Luminate, made up of 77,000 in sales, 46,500 in streaming equivalent units and roughly 500 track equivalent units; it was released across ten vinyl variants, four CD editions, two cassettes and two digital formats. Abrams becomes the sixth act to score a first No. 1 in 2026, joining Noah Kahan, Ella Langley, Megan Moroney, Don Toliver and Megadeth. Elsewhere in the top 10, BTS' "ARIRANG" jumped 26-9 following a new vinyl picture disc release and the group's FIFA World Cup final halftime appearance, while Olivia Rodrigo, Morgan Wallen, Ella Langley, Noah Kahan and Drake held steady at Nos. 2-6.
