Doechii has cracked the Billboard 200 top 10 for the first time with Alligator Bites Never Heal.

Her GRAMMY-winning album jumps from No. 24 to No. 10 on this week’s chart after its vinyl and CD releases. Alligator Bites Never Heal earned 33,000 equivalent album units, including 18,500 in streaming equivalent album units (25.9 million on-demand streams), 14,000 in album sales and 500 in track equivalent album units. Doechii’s feat arrives about a month after she made her Billboard Hot 100 top 10 debut in late March with “Anxiety.”

Elsewhere on the chart, SZA‘s SOS returns to No. 1 for the 13th non-consecutive week with 52,000 equivalent album units. She now holds the record for most weeks atop the chart for an R&B/hip-hop album by a woman and an R&B album by a woman.

Making up the rest of this week’s top 10 are Morgan Wallen at No. 3, Sabrina Carpenter at No. 4 and Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR at No. 5. Bad Bunny, Playboi Carti, Lady Gaga and Wallen again land from Nos. 6 to 9, respectively.
