A new debut album on Apple Music has just set a new record for first-week streams by a female artist, The Verge reports, unseating Taylor Swift. According to Apple, Cardi B’s debut album, Invasion of Privacy, racked up over 100 million streams on Apple Music, doubling the record held by Taylor Swift’s Reputation by the middle of the week.
Invasion of Privacy is now the fifth most-streamed album on Apple Music, surpassing The Weeknd’s Starboy and Ed Sheeran’s Divide. This is a particularly impressive accomplishment for Cardi B, considering that it’s her debut album, and also demonstrates how Apple Music continues to succeed as a platform for artists to debut albums on.
