2017 has put out a ton of great music, but amazingly it took until just recently for there to be a number one album on the Billboard 200 chart put out by a female. This was just done last week by Halsey and her recent release “Hopeless Fountain Kingdom.” What is amazing is that Katy Perry is looking like the next number one female on the chart come the next time this chart is released (UPDATE: The chart is out and she has the number one album!). That’ll make it two female number one albums after going just over six months without a single one!
This has been a big month for Halsey as she was just recently charted number one on the Billboard Artist 100 chart, which ranks the top artists of the week.
