snagged her fourth consecutive No. 1 album with "4". According toBillboard, "4" sold over 310,000 copies in it's first week. While Beyonce certainly has reason to celebrate with her fourth no. 1 album, "4" ranks the lowest in sales from her previous efforts. “I am Sasha Fierce” sold 482,000 copies its first week, “B Day” edged forward with 541,000, and “Dangerously in Love” came in slightly lower at 317,000. Beyonce hasn't had much luck with getting a single from "4" to stick with the lead single "Run the World, Girls" remaining stagnant at no. 29. Beyonce's "4" may not have been as big as "I am..." but it's by no means a flop. |
