Beyoncé's daughters have made history by breaking records on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Blue Ivy Carter, the eldest daughter, held the title for five years until her younger sister Rumi Carter surpassed her record.
At just six years old, Rumi has become the youngest female artist to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 with the release of her mother's new album, Cowboy Carter. Rumi is featured on the track "Protector," which debuted at No. 42 on the Hot 100 after the album's release on March 29th.
This achievement marks a new milestone for Rumi, as she surpasses her sister Blue Ivy's previous record of being the youngest female artist to chart on the Hot 100 at the age of 7. Blue Ivy achieved this feat in 2019 with her appearance on the song "Brown Skin Girl" from Beyoncé's album "The Lion King: The Gift."
While Rumi may hold the record for the youngest female artist on the Hot 100 chart, Blue Ivy still holds the title for the youngest artist to ever appear on any Billboard chart. In 2012, her baby sounds were featured on Jay-Z's song "Glory," which peaked at No. 63 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and No. 23 on Hot Rap Songs.
The Carters are a force to be reckoned with on the Billboard charts, and Beyoncé's new album Cowboy Carter only solidifies their reign. With this album, Beyoncé has now charted a total of 106 songs on the Hot 100, surpassing her husband Jay-Z's 105 charted songs.
But Beyoncé's success doesn't stop there. With Cowboy Carter, she has become the first Black woman to dominate the Top Country Albums chart. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, Top Country Albums, and Americana/Folk Albums charts, earning 407,000 equivalent album units.
This album has also made history with the biggest first-week debut of 2024 in the country music genre. After Jay-Z called out the Recording Academy for repeatedly snubbing Beyoncé in the Album of the Year category, there are already whispers that Cowboy Carter could be a frontrunner for the 2025 Grammys.
In addition to her musical achievements, Beyoncé has also unveiled the artwork for Cowboy Carter, emphasizing that this is not just a country album, but a "Beyoncé" album. With her talent and determination, there is no doubt that she will continue to make waves in the music industry and beyond.
