The American singer, songwriter, and actress Ariana Grande has released seven studio albums, one soundtrack album, one live album, two compilation albums, two extended plays (EPs), fifty-four singles (including seven as a featured artist), and fourteen promotional singles. Throughout her career thus far, Grande has sold over 90 million records worldwide,[1] making her one of the best-selling music artists of all time. According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), she has sold over 131 million units, across albums, singles, and features (when physical, downloads and streaming equivalent sales are combined), and 12 million albums and 93.5 million digital singles units as a lead artist.[2] In the U.S., Grande has moved 22.4 million album units, and garnered over 23.6 billion streams across lead artist credits, according to Luminate.[3][4] Having amassed over 105 billion consumed streams thus far, Grande is the most streamed female artist ever. She is also the most streamed female artist of the 2010s on Spotify and Apple Music.[5][6][7] She has amassed 86 chart entries on the Billboard Hot 100—the third most entries for a female artist—including nine number ones and 22 top-10 hits altogether so far.[8][9] Grande was named the sixth top female artist of the 2010s decade (twelfth overall),[10] and was ranked among Billboard's Greatest of All Time Hot 100 Artists, at number 78.[11] Grande is also one of the best selling female artists in the UK, with over 31 million units.[12]

After signing with Republic Records, Grande released her debut single "Put Your Hearts Up" in December 2011. In April 2013, she made her chart debut with "The Way" featuring Mac Miller, which peaked at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.[13] Her debut studio album, Yours Truly, reached the top ten in multiple countries while debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200, and was subsequently certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[14] In December 2013, Grande released her first extended play, Christmas Kisses, which was re-released in December 2014 in Japan with the bonus track "Santa Tell Me". The single is now considered a modern Christmas standard for its popularity during the Christmas season throughout the years; it has reached the top 10 internationally and peaked at number five on the Billboard Global 200.[15]

Grande released her second studio album, My Everything, in August 2014. The album became her second consecutive number-one record on the Billboard 200, and has been certified 4× Platinum by the RIAA.[16] Its singles "Problem" featuring Iggy Azalea, "Break Free" featuring Zedd, and "Bang Bang" with Jessie J and Nicki Minaj became international hits and reached the top 10 of music charts worldwide; in the US, they peaked at number two, four, and three respectively on Billboard Hot 100 and charted within the top ten simultaneously, making Grande the second lead female artist to achieve the feat.[17] "Problem" and "Bang Bang" also became her first two number one hit singles in the United Kingdom.[18] With the album's fourth single, the Weeknd collaboration "Love Me Harder", also peaking at number seven, Grande became the only artist to score four top-10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014.[19] Grande's third studio album, Dangerous Woman, was released in May 2016. The record peaked at number two in the US while topping the charts in the UK, Italy and 11 other countries. Its lead single of the same name debuted at number 10 and peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first and only artist in the chart's history to debut in the top 10 with the lead single from each of her first three albums.[20] Her next two singles achieved commercial success worldwide, with "Into You" entering the top 10 internationally and "Side to Side" featuring Minaj reaching number four in both the US and the UK.[21]

Grande's fourth studio album, Sweetener, was released in August 2018 and reached number one in Australia, Norway, and the US, where it was certified 2× Platinum by the RIAA. Its lead single, "No Tears Left to Cry", entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number three, further extending her record as the only artist to debut in the top ten with the lead single from all of her studio albums. The following single "God Is a Woman" peaked at number eight in the US, and entered the top 10 worldwide alongside the third single "Breathin". Grande released her fifth studio album, Thank U, Next, in February 2019, which landed atop the Billboard 200 and charts worldwide, and was certified 2× Platinum by the RIAA. It broke numerous chart and streaming records, including the largest streaming week for a pop album and for a female album in the US in history.[22] Its lead single of the same name as well as the second single "7 Rings" became her biggest commercial successes to date, both debuting at number one in over 20 countries worldwide including the US and the UK and the latter becoming one of the best-selling songs in digital history. The album's third single "Break Up with Your Girlfriend, I'm Bored" debuted at number two in the US and topped the charts in the UK. With these singles, Grande became the first solo artist ever and only the second artist after the Beatles to occupy the top three spots on the Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously.[23] She broke the record for the most number-one debuts on the Hot 100 with the 2020 collaborations "Stuck with U" with Justin Bieber and "Rain on Me" with Lady Gaga.[24] Grande's sixth studio album, Positions, was released in October 2020. Both the album and its lead single of the same name debuted at number one in the US and the UK. With this, she became the first artist to have five number-one debuts on the Hot 100 and the first to have their first five number ones debut at the top.[25] The album's second single "34+35" peaked at number two in the US following a remix with Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion. Grande garnered her sixth and seventh US number-one singles with remixes of the Weeknd's "Save Your Tears" in 2021 and "Die for You" in 2023. Grande's seventh studio album, Eternal Sunshine, was released in March 2024 and debuted atop the US Billboard 200. She landed at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 for her eighth and ninth times with the album's singles "Yes, And?" and "We Can't Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)", becoming her sixth and seventh to debut on that chart's pole position respectively.
