Jay made a deal with Itunes and bought most of her albums in the beginning. Look at her singles struggling to sell platinum. Justin timberlake, Adele, Taylor Swift sold albums and singles over platinum. Her fans is going to say that, they rather buy her whole album than singles and everyone else release their singles first. Well all the people I mention has sold over 5 million worldwide and dropped singles before and after the album drop, and the singles they dropped after release of their album still outsold Beyonce two top singles. It is obvious that they bought her albums, so she wouldn't flopped again like 4. That is why Beyonce herself said she was not concern about singles, because she want to have the top album of the year, but I doubt it, when Adele and Taylor dropp an album this year. If you don't count this year, she wanted to top Katy, Lady Gaga Miley, that is why they bought up her albums at the end of 2013, so they can say she had the top album of the year out of women
