Slayyyter earns her biggest week yet on Billboard’s charts as her new album, Wor$t Girl in America, debuts at No. 1 on the Top Dance Albums chart dated April 11.
Released March 27 via RECORDS/Columbia Records, the album also launches at No. 22 on the Billboard 200 with 27,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in its opening week, according to Luminate. Of that sum, 16,000 were in album sales, driving a No. 7 debut on Top Album Sales.
Three songs from the set land on the Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart: “Yes Goddd” and “Crank” debut at Nos. 13 and 14, respectively, while “Dance…” reenters at No. 15.
In a March interview with Billboard, Slayyyter said she considered quitting music after making the album. “I just kept saying, ‘I’m going to go back to school after this. I’m done,’” she shared. “This is going to be my last project. I’m going to do one last rollout and give it my all and then I’m going to tell my team that I’m over doing this and shift gears, because it’s not working out. Then I rediscovered my love for making music while working on everything and ended up signing to Columbia for this project and everything has been so great. I really felt hopeless, so I think all of this music came from a place of wanting to make a project that fulfilled me, and then to move on with my life.”
Slayyyter previously reached the charts in 2023 with her second LP, Starf–ker, which hit No. 10 on Top Dance Albums and No. 46 on Top Album Sales, marking her first Billboard chart appearances.
Up next, Slayyyter is set to make her Coachella debut this weekend in Indio, Calif., followed by her first performance at Governors Ball in New York in June. Her headlining Wor$t Girl in the World Tour kicks off in September with dates planned across North America, South America and Europe.
