Today, it stands as her best-selling album to date, with over 5 million in pure U.S. album sales. B’Day (2006) First Week: 541,000 (album sales) I Am… Sasha Fierce (2008) First Week: 482,000 (album sales) Despite selling fewer copies on the whole than her first two albums, huge digital song sales and streams for singles like “Single Ladies” (5.8 million sold in the U.S.) and the pop ballad perennial “Halo” (925 million U.S. on-demand official streams, according to Luminate) have helped I Am… Sasha Fierce become Beyoncé’s best-performing album to date in terms of total equivalent album units moved (8.19 million). 4 (2011) First Week: 310,000 (album sales) Beyoncé (2013) First Week: 617,000* (album sales) Lemonade (2016) First Week: 653,000* (equivalent album units) (For the purposes of this exercise, we’re also not counting her three other LP releases over the last six years — her 2018 The Carters team-up with superstar husband Jay-Z Everything Is Love, 2019 Coachella chronicle Homecoming: The Live Album or 2019 curated film soundtrack The Lion King: The Gift — but for the record, their first weeks were 123,000, 38,000 (in a two-day week) and 54,000, respectively.) So Halo is definitely eligible for Diamond
Kool_Aid_King Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 So Halo is Diamond eligible and so is Single Ladies or would SL be at 9M? I'm surprised the sales are that low. I assumed it was well over the 6M mark considering it reached 5M in like 2013.
