Are you surprised?

 

 

It's #17, which is good!

Give her a break 

I see the AOTY in this top 10

 

#17 is higher than alleged global icon Lady Gaga, who also had collabs with Ariana and Blackpink + promoted the album. So yes, I am surprised the so-called local Beyoncé is outdoing certain girlies despite debuting a whole decade before them.

That it ranked higher than Chromatica despite Beyoncé being called local, Renaissance being released later into the year and with no high profile features, no videos, no performances to help generate interest? I sure am!

Sounds like she’s in great company with Chromatica then

It’s higher than chromatica with a release later in the year and no Oreo/jockstrap/blackpink/ariana grande/“the bodyguard sized” ASIB predecessor so yes I’m surprised

Damn. #ThanksForNothingAriana #ThanksForNothingBLACKPINK

 

The way ATRL called 30 an underperformance but treated Renaissance like a big comeback all this time just for this

Billboard 200 Year End

#21 RENAISSANCE 

 

 

But ATRL told me Beyonce was local?

Still higher than chromatica, and with a full stadium tour to boot. I can see why you're pressed

 

No. Virtually every album above it had more time to collect total units or the pure sales were extremely front loaded.

 

#17 when it continues to sell and stream at a steady and consistent pace in 2023 is fine. There will be a tour and visuals as well. 

No visuals no IFPI top 10 album!

higher than chromatica, seethe 

The backfire 

What a shame tbh Renaissance is her best album

No one drags Gaga as hard as the monsters

 

OT: Still very impressive all things considered 

I mean it’s still #17, which is higher than plenty of albums, it could’ve been worse

But Renaissance has a #1 solo hit and a bigger global smash than any Chromatica song according to the behives + has chart longevity... only to finish 1 position higher?

Seems like not even local and not even global
