Ariana Grande initially landed at the top with her first full-length album for Republic Records, Yours Truly. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200, Billboard Digital Albums Chart and iTunes Overall Albums Chart. Moreover, it yielded the game-changing pop smash The Way featuring Mac Miller. One of 2013’s defining songs, the single went double-platinum, hit the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 and reached No. 1 on the iTunes Overall Top Songs Chart. In the aftermath, she was named Best New Artist at the American Music Awards in 2013. Grande’s magnetic charm, impressive voice and astounding presence have enchanted millions of fans worldwide; 2014 saw her reach incredible heights right out of the gate. The first single from her sophomore album, Problem featuring Iggy Azalea, saw her become the youngest woman to debut with over 400K sold first-week. In addition to ranking as the fifth highest digital song debut for a female artist and ninth highest ever, the platinum smash debuted at No. 1 in 65 countries, topping the iTunes overall Top Songs and Pop Songs charts for four weeks. Other accolades followed throughout the year, with Grande winning Favorite Breakout Artist at the People’s Choice Awards 2014, the Young Influencer Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, the Radio Disney Chart Topper Award, Choice Female Artist and Choice Single (Problem) at the 2014 Teen Choice Awards and more.
