Great numbers tbh especially for someone at her age. 

[Aramis]

Some of those girls were in school, kindergarten or not even born when Beyoncé debuted. Crazy ****.

Everyone above her won’t be making music or doing those numbers at her age also 

[Lovett]

Incredible!

[Doogle]

And that’s her weak streaming platform

[BnPac]

Give her age a rest...

It could be better but it's good, it's her first real solo album in the streaming era and she still managed this. 

[patapon]

I wonder why she is not as strong on Spotify compared to Apples Music? 
 

i use Apple Music myself

 

but holy wow at Taylor swift.

Yeah it would’ve been better if she hadn’t pulled her dumb Tidal **** but it’s a respectable number. It’s certainly not the biggest result of all time but she exceeded my expectations. I truly thought Spotify base was done with ha

“Urban” does better on Apple Music, cause Apple Music worked to cultivate a relationship with certain rappers/R&B artists early on. 

[Blue Monday]

Great numbers, especially considering the excellent hold on AM; she's clearly so much bigger on that platform but I can see her improving upon her Spotify performance with the subsequent releases. 

[Both Sides Now]

Incredible

While it’s extremely impressive what she achieved at 40, it’s starting to sound ageist everytime someone brings it up

 

Like it’s just a number, it doesn’t define her as a person

 

I think it sounds better to celebrate her achieving this 25 years into her career.

Her age is extremely relevant in these threads giving how most 40+ women and also men do on streaming

Great numbers

I agree with this though, that’s why her achieving this success is WAY more impressive than say Sia who debuted years later

Its both tbh. Its her age + the amount of years shes been excelling in this industry. I feel like its all meant to celebrate her incredible success even more

Incredible numbers  Interesting that it seems to have comfortably out-debuted a certain dance music album

Ur chart has higher numbers for all albums, so Renaissance is likely pulling 176mio streams in that chart

One did it after 25 years in the industry, the other after 12/13 years. Well... lets just leave it at that

 

 

Really amazing!

Renaissance is now also the album with the highest debut by a BLACK woman on Spotify

 

[Power love]

It really should have done better than that with all the hype she had but congratulations.
