this is pretty good for her but underwhelming when you consider that her stans went on and on about how big she is for years

Hmmm and how about people saying her career is over the last 6 years on Atrl? People just pick and choose.

Excuse for what?

Do you see any 40+ women sitting atop Spotify charts? 

It's just a stat that gives context to her success

Sia and Shakira.

 

Both have topped Spotify upon previous album releases and both have sat in the top ten of the most streamed female artists on Spotify several times this year, alone.

 

Both women are Spotify mavens are both are 40+ years old. As a matter of fact, it could be argued that their Spotify power/presence is far more consistent than Beyoncé’s in the upper regions. 
 

OT: Congrats to Bey. 
 

I love “Renaissance” thus far. It’s my fave album of hers since “4”. Easily.

Yes but I was hoping for better than Drake. Unrealistic as it was

[mystery]

Biggest day for a female artist this year.

[ViviLittleM]

Chromatica did the same or a bit more I think?

[Rodrighost]

[Beyonce_runthis]

This will be interesting. I know the thread will be filled with her second base underwhelming those numbers.

Drake is the King of Streaming, nobody can match him (except bunny ofc). 

[Donquizote]

Tragic number for an album with 16 tracks

As if a thread wouldnt have been done the same if it were the other way around. Yall act like both bases don't have obsessed idiots.

43M for an album with 16 tracks is tragic

[Squall]

Okay numbers, a bit underwhelming but not terrible

[Sharapov]

less than chromatica

That can't be true because they claim she's so old and irrelevant that it's a miracle she can even get 10m streams

true when she wasn’t releasing she was the biggest artist in the world but now that she is they have to change the goal posts

both sides were pretty delusional to be fair, she’s far from actually being over

chromatica did 34M without the ariana and blackpink tracks

 

OT: amazing debut

chromatica did 48.5M with 13 tracks. 

 

good numbers for beyonce’s standards 

[kwek_kwek]

I expected more since the album has 16 tracks.

At the point where one of her ACTUAL peers is outdoing her. Until then  

How do we dissect who her peers are?

 

If we’re referring to Destiny’s Child, then their female peers would be Toni Braxton, Mary J Blige, TLC, Brandy, Monica, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera etc. 

 

All the above artists debuted between 1992-1998 whereas DC debuted in 1997. 
 

If we’re referring to her solo career then her female peers are Jennifer Lopez, Pink, Alicia Keys, Avril Lavigne, Rihanna and Taylor Swift. 
 

All the above artists debuted between 2000-2005 whereas Beyoncé debuted in 2003. 
 

People need to make their minds up.
