SAY IT WITH YOUR CHEST: ARI'S BACK WITH A GLOBAL #1

Republic's Ariana Grande earned the biggest song debut of her career on 1/12 with "yes, and?" The single opened at #1 across the board including at Spotify global, where it debuted with 11m+ streams.

Grande also held #1 at Apple Music global, Spotify U.S., YouTube Trending and iTunes.

Counting by Spotify streams, "yes, and?" debuted bigger than Grande's previous smash singles "thank u, next" and "7 rings." Expect a huge week at pop as well for this one, which has all the right metrics in all the right places.

As if Republic couldn't get any hotter, House Lipman has another home-run hitter inserted in its starting lineup. For now, Ari's new cut is the biggest debut of 2024.
