This year, three artists who have been making music and performing for the past decade have enjoyed their most successful years yet. Slayyyter has built momentum from her recent album, WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA, which hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Dance Albums chart and has spent 18 weeks on the chart overall, and debuted at No. 22 on the Billboard 200. RAYE’s latest album, This Music May Contain Hope, reached No. 11 on the Billboard 200 and spawned a Billboard Hot 100 top 20 single, “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!”. Kehlani’s single “Folded” marked her first top 10 hit on the Hot 100 last summer, reaching No. 6 and heralding her self-titled album this April, which hit No. 4 on the Billboard 200.
That chart success has brought these women the biggest audiences of their careers thus far.
