Realistically her older albums should be charting due to touring the U.S. especially since the clips are constantly going viral.

 

 

She's not even performing her biggest hits aside from Crazy In Love:rip:

Women 10 percent of top 20 ?

Those numbers from Drake are surprisingly high. Also surprised that Fleetwood Mac and MJ made the list, but not The Beatles.

For context, an artist has moved over 11m album units in a single year… one other time in the SoundScan era. BSB with 11.7m album sales in 1999. Singles contributed negligibly to total units for them that year.

 

This means she already has the biggest year for any artist in the SoundScan era and has all of September, October, November, and December left to count, including 1989 TV which seems locked to add another million units in its first week alone.

 

:deadvision:

Do Billboard and Nielsen (now Luminate) use the same start and end dates for the year, though? Taylor just passed 10M for 2023 calendar year a week or two ago. Billboard's 2023 year starts before the end of the year, I think. Not that it matters in this case, because she'll top BSB regardless of the start and end.

No, you’re right, I avoided correcting myself after I realized my mistake :eli: She should end up roughly in the same ballpark between the two I guess, since SoundScan will be missing some Midnights weeks that Billboard includes and Billboard will miss a few of 1989.

And? She is still performing several songs from her past albums some not even that old. Some other artists don't even need to tour to have their old albums charting.

Beyonce's new album is a flop anyway you spin it. It's just fact, I'm not even a hater.

 

She needs to do better next album/era and give visuals and promote and make hits again.

A flop would fail to chart a single whatsoever on the Hot 100. That would be a flop. Renaissance isn't even close to being a flop. It's at #35 on the BB200 57 weeks in. The last time your fave had an album chart that long was in 2001. Why are you talking about flopping? :deadbanana2:

 

You can pretend you're not a hater all you want, but if you enter a thread to just straight up lie, then you expose yourself.

And it's not like Beyonce didn't experience a huge decline since her 2000s peak.

Oh no, a black woman in her 40s is no longer as commercially successful as she was in her 20s when she was pumping out pop music and heavily promoting? I am SHOCKED. Whatever is she going to do with her #1 single, her top 10 single, #1 multi-platinum eligible album from her most recent era, 25 years into her career? I swear some of you are so delusional with your expectations of this woman and then you still try and drag her. It's ridiculous.

No she isn't, there are many artists who are bigger than Bey in the US: Taylor Swift, Drake, Bad Bunny, Morgan Wallen, Travis Scott, SZA, Luke Combs, Rihanna, Post Malone...

 

Bad Bunny, Morgan Wallen, Travis Scott, SZA, Luke Combs and Post Malone are in NO way bigger than Beyoncé. You are too focused on current streaming stats, you always fail to see the bigger picture with every single reply you make. Beyoncé has moved almost 30M album sales and 114 million single sales in the US and at 25 years is one of the very few artists who keeps consistently debuting at No.1, getting No.1 hits, selling out massive tours. Lets talk about when those aforementioned artists reach 25 years to compare which ones ended up being bigger.

 

Spotify numbers are the worst thing ever to happen to this website istg :priceless:

They are currently bigger as they are more consumed by the public. I'm not saying their overall career is bigger than Beyonce.

And yet Beyonce's album is still charting and selling out a stadium tour. It clearly has a multitude of stans for other artists pressed. :coffee2:

Not you acting like it's a huge ass achievement when Taylor easily have 10 albums charting every week. You think I'm pressed with a #35 charting album? :coffee2:

Rihanna being retired from music, not even touring (which will boost the sales) etc , and still above someone buzzzzzzzz :jonny6:

Yes, you're very pressed. As are so many of Taylor's fans, which is hilarious considering how well Taylor is consistently performing. Yet still, for some reason, you're all so deeply insecure about other female artists succeeding. :rip:

#35 over a year after release? Yes, that's a success for everybody. Which is why the insecurity is so hilarious.

I wouldn't even bother tbh. Bey is killing it, especially for someone so deep into their career. You'd think she started at the same time as Ariana Grande the way some people talk about her.

The insecurity comes from you when everybody has different definition of success. #35 over a year is a success to you then congrats, to me it just isn't. What's so hard to understand. You don't have to convince anyone that your fave is the BIGGEST ARTIST IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE if you believe so. Congrats on celebrating #35 :coffee2:

I must've missed the part where I tried to convince anyone my fave was the 'BIGGEST ARTIST IN THE WHOLE UNIVERSE' (:rip:). It seems like this whole conversation is you desperately trying to downplay the huge success of another female artist because you're threatened. That's just sad.

I don't know what's so hard to understand? I literally mentioned it and will mentioned it again. Different people have different perspective of success. If you can't comprehend that. Too bad. 

Oh in case, you can't read: Different people have different perspective of success

Again, just in case: Different people have different perspective of success

Lastly, Different people have different perspective of success

Hopefully you finally understand: Different people have different perspective of success

They do, thankfully ours are realistic. It's a shame that your insecurity over other female artists' success deludes you into another "perspective". Stay mad, sis! :heart:

Oh wow Lana is really high, and I fear she’s only getting bigger :cooldown:

You still seem more mad with insisting my perspective of success is not 'realistic'. It seems like you can't have any proper adult argument on this website :coffee2:

Considering the vast majority of albums are much lower than #35 over a year after their release, I don't need to insist your perspective isn't realistic. It just factually isn't. :michael: Sorry that I won't agree with your delusions.

Rihanna, though :jonny:
