La Reina Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 Still my fave Bey album. It may have underperformed in 2011 but in the end it got its justice

Cheetos Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 Oh wow, deserved. I never know if self-titled or 4 is my favorite album of hers

It sold 1.6m pure in the US and 0.5m pure in the UK. Thats 2.1m, where does the remaining 1.9m pure come from? Bey aint that global

In what dimension has “4” sold 4M pure units? In the U.S? No. WW? No. So please explain? Also, the 10x bigger was a clear exaggeration but you know what I meant (you just wanted to be a wise a*s) considering all three albums, individually, were bigger than 4. 17 minutes ago, Hot Volcano said: 0.5m pure in the UK. To be fair, “4” is platinum in the U.K and was actually a decently sustained era here. I remember it vividly. “Best Thing I Never Had” & “1+1” becoming sleeper hits here, her ITV prime-time special as well as her Glastonbury gig truly gave the era the life it didn’t see in the U.S, in my opinion.

No, I didn't know what you meant at all. Hence why it's funny because even if you add the three albums' totals together, it still doesn't get there...not even close. The swifty (who is also a Bey's hater) making a stupid comment does not justify bringing 4 down with a "clear over exaggeration". 1 hour ago, Hot Volcano said: It sold 1.6m pure in the US and 0.5m pure in the UK.

Most estimations had it at 3.5M years ago but even if I am wrong it still doesn't change my point. Edited June 11, 2022 by BnPac

Both Sides Now Posted June 11, 2022 Posted June 11, 2022 An album with LEGS! This is what happens when you create quality work, it speaks for itself
