It’s pretty safe to say Olivia Rodrigo broke Billboard this week.

Thanks to her inaugural LP, ‘Sour,’ the 18-year-old entered the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 with the most record-setting set of accomplishments in modern chart history.

As we previously reported, Rodrigo reigns over this week’s Billboard 200 with the biggest sales week of the year thanks to  ‘Sour’ – the first debut album in history to premiere atop the tally after two songs from its tracklist premiered atop the Hot 100.  What’s more, the effort owns the largest sales week for any act’s debut charting effort since Billboard switched its sales metrics to include streaming.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg.
