Ariana Grande - Yours Truly (2013)

      Yours Truly is the debut studio album by American singer Ariana Grande. It was released on September 3, 2013, by Republic Records. Incorporating R&B, Yours Truly was influenced by the music of Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse, Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey, amongst Grande's other idols. Grande describes the album's first half as a "throwback" to the R&B music of the 1990s, and the second half being "very unique and very special that I've sort of written". Grande herself co-wrote six out of the twelve album tracks. Harmony Samuels, Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Patrick "J. Que" Smith and Grande's Victorious co-star Leon Thomas III, as well as others, handled the album's music production.

Grande recorded the songs on the album over a three-year period. Featured collaborators include Big Sean, Mika and Mac Miller, in addition to The Wanted's Nathan Sykes, who features on the song "Almost Is Never Enough", which was also included on The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones soundtrack (2013). Occasionally, the album dips into other genres such as adult contemporary music and dance music. Yours Truly debuted atop the US Billboard 200 albums chart, selling 138,000 copies in its opening week; it was eventually certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and has sold 596,000 copies in the United States as of April 2018. Internationally, Yours Truly reached top-ten positions in the album charts of Australia, Canada, Denmark, Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

Yours Truly was promoted with live renditions of the album's songs during The Listening Sessions tour (2013). The album was preceded by the release of the lead single "The Way", featuring American rapper Mac Miller, on March 25, 2013. It became a top-ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number nine. The second single, "Baby I", was released on July 22, 2013, and peaked just outside the top-twenty of the Billboard Hot 100 at number twenty-one. The third and final single, "Right There", featuring Big Sean, was released on August 6, 2013, and peaked at number eighty-four on the Hot 100.
