The British public have spoken and the oly name on their lips this week is…Beyonce.

Yes, keen to flaunt their love for her bold, brave and unashamedly Black look and sound, the U.K’s music lovers have taken her new LP ‘Lemonade’ to the top of its album chart.

Full story below…

73,000 fans are to thank for the album’s current position at the top of the chart, making it the fastest-selling album to be released by a living artist in the market this year.

  2. King Mark111 /.\ April 29, 2016

    UK charts are so basic, so Beyonce topping it isn’t news, her not topping it all 6 times is tho.

    • Wait what! April 29, 2016

      Are you finished tipping the boys Markisha girl. That guy was cute though, so I feel you LOL.

      • Annalise April 29, 2016

      • Wait what! April 29, 2016

        That guy wasn’t Mark. Mark is the one doing the tipping on the right in the yellow.

      • Taylor Tori Azalea April 29, 2016

        WHAT? Mark doesn’t have a job sis

    • JOHNVIDAL April 29, 2016

      Mark
      That´s funny cause that´s the only territory where Rihanna has had some type of special success album sales wise a couple of times LOL

    • My name is Cierror April 29, 2016

      LMAO but the navy always brags about Rihanna topping the UK charts. You drag yourself every time dummy!

    • Navy Captain April 30, 2016

      Mark did you see This is What You came for knocked Formation off #1 on iTunes in a matter of hours?

  3. King B April 29, 2016

    When Aaliyah and Rih can’t top it, its basic. Topping album with 70% coming from streams, now that is BASIC!

    • rosy3 April 29, 2016

      Today is a good day in music everyone has forgotten lemonade aliyah and Rihanna had better songs that overated Beyonce whole career and every time I hear single ladies I picture justin Timberlake in tights on snl Beyonce is overated Tina Turner had better music beyonce songs are like kids rhyming and playing in a sand box Beyonce will be remembered for the one song that was written for her SINGLE LADIES

      • King B April 29, 2016

        Forgotten but 73,000 people in UK remember buying her albums.

  4. Cake like Lady GaGa April 29, 2016

    NOT at Trannyyonce slaying Riherrpes in the UK, I thought the cumm dumpster that is Riherrpes was popular there? Kiiii

    • JOHNVIDAL April 29, 2016

      Girl Rihanna is a joke. Only singles prepared for radio. Talent nowhere to be seen. Gaga and Beyonce slay her so hard on any type or shape of front.

    • rosy3 April 29, 2016

      They buy beyonce albums because she is overated she sells but she has no lasting music that’s a fact single ladies will be played at bridal showers accept the truth what beyonce have going for her is dancing around flipping her hair in the fan hyped up leotard queen people like that people need to listen closely to the words of a song beyonce can sing 123 to blu ivy and the hives think it’s brilliant she sells on hype when you buy it peel away the smoke and mirror I saw Jay smoking a cigar looking like camel yea I got these fools

  5. Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

    73,000?! I AM SCREAMING! That’s it?! Beyawnce has officially flopped

    • My name is Cierror April 29, 2016

      Did Jackie even chart in the UK?
      US album sales: @ciara, Jackie 6,229 (26,165 total).
      5:24 PM – 23 May 2015

    • rosy3 April 29, 2016

      She suppose to be a queen and selling that type of numbers the hives are delusional so what are the numbers in other countries tidal is a fraud I hope rih never ever release her album on there cut her loss and move on rih is a powerful woman on her own thief one and thief two are crooks if rih was not so famous Jay would have done to her as he did rita ora Jay is a backstabbing big lip monster he screw over Damon dash karma will find him one day anyone remember barneys

  6. King B April 29, 2016

    Oops! She doesn’t have to make pornographic video or rely on EDM hits to have entire albums charting in UK top 100. Poor Localyonce, topping Ireland,UK and Netherland album chart and Belgian. Number 2 in NZ and 3 in Germany. Localyonce also set to top Australian Album Chart and #6 in Italy and #7in France.

    • Cub Nigeria loves rihanna April 29, 2016

    • King Mark111 /.\ April 29, 2016

    • JOHNVIDAL April 29, 2016

      I thought he committed s****** when Lady Gaga slayed the tribute for Bowie at the grammys knowing Madonna could never display real talent on stage like that. But we were wrong.
      I have to say I like him. He knows his s***. It´s just when he´s too high he starts hating on a particular person while giving a model with a mic a pass. But other than that I´ve never seen him acting racist?

    • S****** Blonde April 29, 2016

      Don’t deride those who are mourning David Bowie, in mourning Bowie i mourn the end of an era when art could truly subvert, now my beloved Prince is gone too, I’m sure you could understand my grief by just imagining to lose Beyoncé.

  19. King B April 29, 2016

    Not the country song Daddy Lesson charting higher than Needed Me and KIB.

  20. My name is Cierror April 29, 2016

  22. King Mark111 /.\ April 29, 2016

    Pest clinging to “Pro black” and girl power, yet they dissed a black female singer this whole week. How ironic?

    • Taylor Tori Azalea April 29, 2016

      blah blah
      roses are red
      lemonade is sour
      and you are bitter

      • King Mark111 /.\ April 29, 2016

        lol

    • Who gonna check me boo?? April 29, 2016

      Seething this much is unhealthy sis. The queen is slaying and there’s absolutely not amount of hate that could change that, it Friday get off Beyonce’s blog post and go have a walk a drink or a Dhick.

  23. cocobutta April 29, 2016

    What’s worse looking jealous or crazy???

    Don’t hate just congratulate excellent story telling which has a themed beginning middle and end of getting into formation for re-formatting hate, pain and anger to FREEDOM and FORGIVENESS ??

  24. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    Is it true ANTI only sold 19k in the UK to date. Lol moving on the US its so funny to me how rih was on its way to another week at number 1 on both album & singles chart last wk and Prince/Bey/Drake came storming in shattering all hope. Also funny that ANTI (albeit low sales and all) was on track to being the biggest new release of 202016o much for that i cannot @ Bey & Drake shattering ANTIs sales in just DAYS of impact. Bey hasnt even hit stores yet nor released a new single. Sorry is very catchy and could go #1 also daddy lessons & 6 inch just waiting to kill anti off the charts for good along with FREEDOM. even forward slays Anti hype.

    • JOHNVIDAL April 29, 2016

      Are you serious Rihanna has only sold that in the UK???? Damn it I knew she was really flopping worldwide cause I really have never heard the song on the radio still here in Europe (and that´s the only thing she has got going on in the USA to save this era, that Work song. Same way it is here with her usually, many songs constantly on the radio). But it´s obvious that without the pop singles she just flops.

  25. Who gonna check me boo?? April 29, 2016

    It funny how Freehanna and Kanye kardashian got schooled by the Queen and Drake in a matter of days they better take note cuz girl getting outsell that fast is not a good look

  26. Annalise April 29, 2016

    KIIII so twïnks are your preference @Marsha ????

    • Truth April 29, 2016

      Lmao, damn!

  27. Rima April 29, 2016

    Not impressed at all.

  28. Nigeria loves rihanna April 29, 2016

    Am not even mad y’all calling Rihanna anti a flop but hold on beyawnce sold her marital drama & made a public joke of her husband for just 73000 copies only? Epic fail for such hype & her so called queen status. Y’all gonna cling to basic first week chart yet at the end Rihanna will sell more than beyawnce. That’s how it have always been.

  29. Nigeria loves rihanna April 29, 2016

    I can’t believe Drake knocked y’all queen boreyonce off in less than 1hr & Rihanna about to do the same to her in a few mins. Lmao now I know why jayz cheated on her Hahaha.

  30. Adele’s flip phone April 29, 2016

    Beyonce first week UK sales:73,000 Adele first week UK sales: 800,000,+ 🙁 so much for the ” number 1 chick in the game”

    • Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

      @Adele’s flip phone. You always keep it a hundred with these illiterate fleahives. Compared to Adele, Drake and Taylor’s sales Beyawnce’s name shouldn’t even be in the same sentence as theirs

  31. Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

    Lol@ the silly fleahives trying to discredit King Drake’s sales. Face it, fleahives! Noone gives a sh## about Beyawnce and it’s showing in that flopped HBO sales and flop album

  32. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    Beys first week ww sales will be extremely high. I predict around 800k compare that to Canti 190k lol. Drake if memory serves correct was the first to go plat last year in the US. Has there been anyone with a 2016 release to go plat yet? (Besides rihs FAKE plat) if not then Bey and Drake in for a EPIC SHOWDOWN for biggest debut and fastest to go plat WITHOUT SCAM.

    • Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

      @DiabeticStroke, there is no showdown. Drake totally demolished Beyawnce within an hour

  33. Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

    *HBO special*

  34. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    @SINamon

    So u mean to tell me Drake who cant even sell 2 mill in the states demolished beys projected 650K 4 day sales in ONE HOUR. Keep dreaming. Beys full wk UK total will reach 100k >>>>> 73k(ANTICHRIST 3 months)

    • Cinnamon Girl April 29, 2016

      Sweetie Beyawnce’s album has been out for a week and still hasn’t sold 1 million. Drake is expected to sell 1-2 million in his first week. Have several seats

      • Lolz April 29, 2016

        How much has Jackie sold after over a year?

  35. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    My bad ANTICHRIST sold 62k in the UK KIIIIIIIII *Sips Lemons with no sugar*

  36. Lolz April 29, 2016

    I love Drake but let’s be real, why are people acting like his album sales are collosal all of a sudden just to come for Beyonce (who is doing extremely well btw) Have any of his albums even sold over 3 million?

  37. Lolz April 29, 2016

    And this Ciara Stan is seething so hard it’s hilarious.

  38. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    SINnaMAN

    LEMONADE just droped this monday. Tracking stops YESTERDAY. Thats only 4 full days. If drake debuts higher this new tracking week it will only be because he has the full week going up against beys 2nd tracking wk which began today. Drake will be #1 this new tracking week while bey is #1 for the last one while prince was number for the one b4 that based on ONE day sells.

    • Nigeria loves rihanna April 29, 2016

      Shut the f*** with that excuse, Rihanna album got leaked few mins before week sales count stop & plus 1million given away yet y’all drag her for debuting with low sale. Karma is b****, dezperateyonce has 70 writers pen songs dragging her husband just to debut with an embarrassing sale like this.lmao! At Rihanna stays classy.

  39. DIABETIC STROKE April 29, 2016

    I will believe Drake will sell 1+ plus first week when i see those First One Day sells until then… *sips sugarless lemonade*

    • Nigeria loves rihanna April 29, 2016

      U better sip that sugarless lemonade for ur dear life bcos diabetes is real & so is slay Drake. Hahaha

  40. Applause April 29, 2016

    The hive can only attack flops like Ciara and Rihanna. They know they can’t come for Gaga Taylor and Adele who can do 1 million first week.

    • Who gonna check me boo?? April 29, 2016

      Self titled destroyed Gaga into oblivion and Lemonade was the final coffin on her career she’s a non f****** factor at this point the GP has moved on catch up.
      And as for those two white privileged and boring women you mentioned let me know if they will have Beyonce longevity and boost her number 10-15 years from now or go the Britknee route and root away in Vegas

    • Jackson 5 Nostrils (Tyler) April 29, 2016

      No, we can definitely come for gaga. She’s no longer socially relevant

      • GurlWepa1989 April 29, 2016

        Drake is #1 on Album fron and Rih/Calvin is #2 on single front. Bey’s lemonade is getting sour.

      • Jackson 5 Nostrils (Tyler) April 29, 2016

        @cinnamon/1989

        Girl stfu you Stan for Frih. Every mainstream project released thus far has outsold hers.

      • Keri Qween April 29, 2016

        Yoire an idiot. If you track sales you will see that Calvin x rihanna will overtake Ghettomation shortly

        Plus I don’t think Views has been released fully worldwide yet

        either way. Lemonade lasts one week at #1

    • RICHIE_RICH April 29, 2016

  42. Sam April 29, 2016

    Lets cut the bull. The album is about marriage woes and nothing is pro black. Because Beyonce has all black people in New Orleans and has black people in it its pro black. People have had black people in their videos for years

  43. Cuzislayfreedom April 29, 2016

    Billboards just announced she has sold over half a million on iTuness and headed to #1 on the hot200 … I will serve Lemons but I made lemonade ???????☕️
