On May 29, Ariana Grande returned with her new single, “Hate That I Made You Love Me.” The song introduces her upcoming eighth full-length, Petal, which will arrive in July.
Only a week before “Hate That I Made You Love Me” hit streaming platforms and digital download stores, the Grammy winner unleashed a tenth anniversary edition of her album Dangerous Woman, one of her earliest full-lengths. The project came with just one previously unreleased track titled “Knew Better Part Two,” but that proved to be enough to convince a large portion of the superstar’s fans to purchase Dangerous Woman, either for the first time or in a new format.
As “Hate That I Made You Love Me” launches in lofty spaces on several Billboard-compiled tallies, Dangerous Woman returns to multiple charts, and even hits a new all-time high.
This week, Dangerous Woman sits at No. 2 on the Vinyl Albums chart, Billboard‘s ranking of the top-selling titles of any style on wax. That’s a new high point for Grande’s third studio album, and she nearly earns another champion.
Paul McCartney’s latest, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, blocks the multigenre singer-songwriter from leading the charge once more as it opens at No. 1. He nabs his fifth ruler, keeping Grande from reaching that same milestone.
Ariana Grande Has Charted Four Vinyl Leaders
It’s been only about six months since Grande last topped the Vinyl Albums chart. In December 2025, the Wicked: For Good soundtrack, which is credited officially to Grande, Cynthia Erivo and various artists, debuted at No. 1, scoring Grande her fourth winner. It followed Positions, as well as both Eternal Sunshine and Wicked: The Soundtrack, which both opened on the throne in 2024.
Dangerous Woman Hits a New Vinyl Peak
Dangerous Woman reached the Vinyl Albums chart for the first time only last December. This frame marks just its second trip to the wax-specific tally, and it is now the first project by Grande to miss out on dominating by just one space.
Throughout her career, Grande has racked up 11 wins on the Vinyl Albums chart, and all but three of those have reached the top 10. Wicked: One Wonderful Night (Live), Yours Truly and My Everything stalled at Nos. 16, 23 and 24, respectively.
Here are all of Ariana Grande’s top 10s on the Vinyl Albums chart.
- Dangerous Woman
- Eternal Sunshine
- K Bye for Now (SWT Live)
- Positions
- Sweetener
- Thank U, Next
- Wicked: For Good (Soundtrack) with Cynthia Erivo and various artists
- Wicked: The Soundtrack with Cynthia Erivo and various artists
Dangerous Woman Becomes a Top 10 Bestseller Again
Dangerous Woman also finds its way back to the Top Album Sales chart in addition to the Vinyl Albums list. On that roster, which is built using all sales data, and not just purchases on vinyl, Dangerous Woman lands at No. 4. That is not a new high, as is the case on the Vinyl Albums roster, as Dangerous Woman has previously topped out at No. 2. Luminate reports that in the most recent tracking period, the decade-old album sold 19,700 copies across all formats.
Ariana Grande Charts Two Albums on the Billboard 200
Grande fills two spaces on the current edition of the Billboard 200, the look at the most-consumed albums in the U.S. Dangerous Woman shoots from No. 135 all the way to No. 21. At the same time, Eternal Sunshine bolts from No. 137 to No. 79.
While Eternal Sunshine spent three weeks dominating – it is one of her half dozen rulers on the Billboard 200 – it seems that No. 2 may always be connected to Dangerous Woman. That is where the hits-packed project stopped climbing during its initial run on the most important albums tally in America.
