Lauren Daigle made history this week by becoming the first Christian singer to top all five of Billboard Magazine’s Christian charts, while also beating out top artists like Ariana Grande, Travis Scott, Nicki Minaj and Drake. Daigle’s latest album, Look Up Child, took first place on the Top Christian Albums Chart by a long shot. The singer also placed third in the all-genre Billboard 200 category, ranking well-ahead of the world’s top rappers and pop stars.

Daigle told Billboard she excited her music is reaching so many people. “We’re all pinching ourselves,” Daigle told the music magazine upon hearing the news. “To have that type of reception and that sort of welcome back, it feels so good.” Although other artists like Drake, Ariana Grande, and Nicki Minaj have been on the charts for weeks, Look Up Child’s release rivals that of other top artists. For example, Daigle sold 115,000 albums in her first week, while Camila Cabell’s album Camila sold 110,000 in its debut. READ MORE
