Doja Cat has set a new Billboard 200 record with her third studio album, Planet Her.
According to Chart Data, the 14-track record is officially the first album from a female rapper to spend six months in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart. Planet Her first debuted at No. 2 upon its release in June 2021 and has remained in the top 10 since then; it is currently at No. 9 on the chart.
Planet Her followed 2019’s Hot Pink and featured guest appearances from Young Thug, Ariana Grande, the Weeknd, JID, SZA, Eve and Gunna. It earned Doja Cat six nods at the forthcoming 2022 GRAMMY Awards — Album of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance for “Kiss Me More” with SZA and Best Melodic Rap Performance for “Need to Know.”
