Smash  no wonder why ATRL hates her: she’s a successful woman, something ATRL hates to see 

[Xtripped]

Always #1 even when she's "flopping"

Would be crazy if she wins KCA

 

 

anyways not surprising

Funny how we had to defend her that she isn't actually flopping

however, I wonder how she will do with her next era? she deffo has some space to fall more..but the hype won't be there anymore

As expected. Just because she's not serving longevity doesn't mean her album sales aren't still miles above everyone else. 

That 700k number is very accessible though, I wonder If Harry or Bey will be able to challenge it in the long run with streaming

Harry, he's pulling great numbers weekly, I also see Ed passing it too, although he was barely certified 2x platinum early this month so it may take a while.

Bey? Lemonade is still platinum

It had no streaming & Renaisance will be a dance album so I expect it to out perform lemonade. Hold Up peaked at 11 whilst BMS is about to be top 5 next week.

Harry or Olivia will challenge it for sure.

 

Ed and Future Nostalgia(550k+) is beating it for sure before end of decade. 

 

Still very impressive

[Roberto]

In her allegedly flop era. Congrats, legend. 

[Solaria]

Interesting when its chart performance isn’t that great. It’s below albums from 6/7 years ago

Are you trying to set Beyoncé up?  

 

She is NOT coming close to these numbers and that’s ok.

Great numbers but the album has poor longevity.

I’d probably give that title to “ANTI”. 
 

 

From 460 to 5x Platinum-eligible & 10M units WW.

It’s not realistic.gif.

 

The only album that could, potentially, surpass it is Styles’ new album. If not, then, perhaps, if some other popular British act/music veteran releases an album that spawns a hit as I don’t see an international artist competing either. 

700K+ units in the streaming era is absolutely massive. The album could’ve been pushing +1M had it had another hit and Adele didn’t abandon it.
