GreatestLoveofAll Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Its crazy to see the I Will Always Love You compilation do so great. Its now her longest running album, the longest-charting compilation, will be like what, the third or fourth album by a black woman to cross 200 weeks on the BB200 by the summer and by spring next year if it stays consistent, will make her the first black woman to spend 1000 weeks on the BB200 and the fifth overall woman behind only Taylor, Barbra, Adele and Madonna.
