“The Way,” the debut single of her first album, started off her unprecedented record by landing at No. 10 in the Billboard Hot 100 back in 2013.
One year later, her debut single “Problem” from her second album titled “My Everything” immediately shot to No. 3 following its release.
This year, it is the turn of “Focus,” the debut single to her latest album “Moonlight” which will officially come out next year, has debuted at No. 7 in the Billboard Hot 100, thus completing the first-ever streak in the music industry.
What makes her latest debut single “Focus” unique among her two previous debut singles is that she did it all by herself and no other featured artists. But according to reports, the music actually has the uncredited vocals from Jamie Foxx during the song’s chorus.
Her first debut single “The Way” featured Mac Miller, while her second debut track featured Iggy Azalea.
All her three other singles that made it to the Billboard Hot 100 have featured artists too including Zedd on “Break Free,” Jessie J and Nicki Minaj on “Bang Bang,” and The Weeknd on “Love Me Harder.”
It would be interesting to find out if one of the music tracks on her latest album would finally make it to the Billboard Hot 100 without Ariana Grande having a featured artist at all.
