Olivia Rodrigo soars to the top of Billboard 200 AND Hot 100 with debut of ‘Guts’
Unsurprisingly, Olivia Rodrigo ruled the Billboard 200 albums chart with the release of her sophomore collection, “Guts.” It achieved 302,000 equivalent album units based on its combined record sales, individual track sales and online streams. That was slightly better than her debut album, “Sour,” which accumulated 295,000 units in its first week in 2021. Read more about this week’s chart here at Billboard.com.
The success of “Guts” also gave Rodrigo a boost on the Hot 100 singles chart, where all 12 tracks appeared in the top 40. That includes its lead single “Vampire,” which returned to number-one for the first time since it debuted at the top spot back in July. Her second single, “Bad Idea Right?,” also got a big bump, rising from number-26 to number-seven, a new high.
