- Bite Me debuts No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart.
- Album also hits No. 1 in the Netherlands.
- U.S. debut: No. 3 on the Billboard 200 with 64,000 units first week; No. 1 on Top Album Sales (47,000 pure).
- Spotify launch highlights include Top Albums Debut Global #2 and UK #1.
Reneé Rapp’s Bite Me is a bona fide breakout, opening at No. 1 in the UK and No. 1 in the Netherlands while landing No. 3 on the Billboard 200—her first U.S. top-three bow. The UK crown is confirmed by the Official Charts Company; Dutch chart trackers also show a No. 1 peak, underscoring how the record traveled beyond her core U.S. base in week one.
Fueling that start is a heavyweight physical footprint: Bite Me tops Billboard’s Top Album Sales with roughly 47,000 pure sales out of ~64,000 total U.S. units, while early streaming placement delivered a Top Albums Debut Global #2 and UK #1 on Spotify’s debut charts. The mix—collector vinyl variants plus sticky singles—gave Rapp both fan-first receipts and algorithmic lift.
With momentum building, Bite Me sets Rapp up for a busy fall: reviews are broadly positive and a Bite Me Tour launches in September across major U.S. arenas before expanding abroad. Coming off 2023’s Snow Angel, this is the step up that cements her as a headline-era pop act with international pull.
