She deserves all the success! Her previous albums are classics. “Light of the sun” is refreshing.
@CHLOE katy DOES have a number one album…I’m not really her fan but her stans “PERRYLICIOUS” will try to come at you! ……………
I’m so happy that two R&B albums topped the charts…maybe it can also make a comeback on the hot 100
