Chart Check: Beyonce’s ‘Beyonce’ Sells 430,000 Units…In One Day

Published: Saturday 14th Dec 2013 by David

One day after its surprise release, Beyonce‘s brand new album ‘Beyonce’ is on course to welcome her highest ever opening week figure in the coming days, after it surpassed sales of 430,000 units hours after launch!

Good news below…



Now predicted to shift over 600,000 units by the end of this chart week, the LP is set to welcome the strongest first week sales secured by a female artist since Taylor Swift‘s ‘Red’ scanned 1.2 million units in the November of 2012.

In doing this, ‘Beyonce‘ now finds itself outperforming 2006’s ‘B’Day‘ which debuted with 541,000 units, helped in part by her starring role in Bill Condon’s ‘Dreamgirls‘ and her smash hit single ‘Deja Vu’, which moved 75,000 digital units in its launch week in the June of that year.

Billboard adds:

“Beyonce” shifted slightly over 80,000 in the three hours from 9 p.m. PT to midnight on Thursday evening, putting her Friday sales at roughly 350,000. With two more days left in the sales tracking week, the title could sell over 600,000 before the buzzer sounds.”

  17. Lovebird (LOUDER – 04.03.14) December 14, 2013

    congratulations Beyonce on this milestone.

    The music, minus the stripper show video reel is amazing.

    I’m just wondering why you had to take your clothes off for this project? It was degrading and disgusting to watch, and considering your image, grossly disappointing.

    When Madonna released Ray of light, she didn’t take her clothes off, she was a class act. Here you are on your best project yet and you ruin by running around naked on the Beyonce stripper show video reel.

    From conservative booty shaker to s!utting and whorin around in music videos, why?

  18. Let’s Be Real December 14, 2013

    BEYHIVE! WE DID THIS ISH!
    This is just tragic for her contemporaries …TRAGIC.
    I thought she was : local, fading, old, ugly etc etc
    But look!
    She’s made more $ doing LESS arens shows than stadium artist lol that’s a kii

    She shut down all major social media
    went nearlt gold in 24gours

    Broke iTunes records
    She’s basically in full form.if this debuts at 550-600k WITHOUT 99¢ amazon promos and such..than face it..Beyoncé is the KING.
    no other chick could’ve pulled this off with the same phenomena.

    2014 is Beyear and it’s not even here yet.

    Haters..you had a nice run…but let’s be real…old Gurl SLAUGHTERED Y’ALL ASSES

  19. Crave December 14, 2013

    Hahahahahahaha wow and all these rihanna, gaga, miley and katy perry stans have been calling her a flop and irrelevant and she outsells them all in ONE day off of ONE format .. Bey said it earlier this year and ya’ll didn’t wana believe it but ……BOW DOWN B******!!!

  28. Rosie December 14, 2013

    No promo, no previous announcement, no 99¢ Amazon discount, no cell phone provider commercial, no car commercials, no credit card commercial asking to go to her concerts, no Walmart, Target, Best Buy, no fancy costumes, no Twitter meltdowns, no 100 million AI songs on the radio every five minutes.
    True legend tbh.

  29. Loyalty December 14, 2013

    And what tops it off, its a QUALITY album that actually deserves the success. Its like a soundtrack, not just a bunch of singles thrown together for the charts.

  30. Rosie December 14, 2013

    @Oh Baby I No one knows Anjulie here in Canada. Try again.

  37. My Forehead Tho December 14, 2013

    But:

    “Beyonce is afraid to flop that’s why she’s not dropping an album”- Drops album in the middle of night- no promo, no single, no warning – and sales 80k in 3hrs and 430k in one day

    “Beyonce is local” – Breaks ITunes record for most #1 albums worldwide

    “Beyonce can’t manage herself; she needs Matthew”- predicted to have her biggest era ever.

  38. Evan December 14, 2013

    I’m so sick of you damn stans enjoy the music and shut the hell up! This is the reason I stop coming to this ratchet ass site. If u don’t like a certain artist don’t comment!

  42. Aynon December 14, 2013

    I’m literally speechless. Beyonce has literally obliterated the competition. The whole world is in awe. God save the queen bey, all hail the queen. Oh beyonce, beyonce rules the waves.

  43. beyhive everyday December 14, 2013

    Im so proud! She was “scared” to release the album, she’s a has been, ppl didn’t want to admit she was a force! Oh she’s not a legend, name one person that has been In the business this long n can sellout tours based on old material n turn around n release an album thru itunes alone with no promo not even a hint anything was coming n send it to itunes at midnight n sell like this? If that’s not legend s*** tell me who is can do it????? To hell wit awards n bs, her career isn’t based on antics or personal drama, we hardly know anything about her yet she has our undivided attention, not to mention this album shows growth maturity n its her most personal project ever! While y’all praise your faves coonery antics as orginal n not the attention seeking desperation that it truly is BEYONCE is quietly slaying!

  44. SLAYAGE December 14, 2013

    THE QUEEN!!!!!

  45. Mark111 December 14, 2013

    Give @Rosie credit for this.

    And LMFAO at “No promo, no previous announcement, no 99¢ Amazon discount,”!!!!!! Go ahead and throw in “No Papa John come with pizzza BS”, lol

    12 months, 12 MONTHS and we thought it was JT’s year. How did we sleep on this? Bey slapped us at the Super Bowl, hit us with the tour and just killed us with this album. Look at her, pulling the number that the monsters said Gaga would sell. BTW, where are the monsters?

  46. NEUTRAL_STAN December 14, 2013

    You can’t even hate man. She effortlessly slayed everyone. The queen has been crowned.

  47. charlesfoxtrot December 14, 2013

    I can’t even deal with how effortlessly and completely Bey has killed, snatched, dragged, revived, etc. me. I just CAN’T!

    And I know the haters can’t either.

    I love the music, and I definitely love how it was unannounced, high-quality, and it’s SLAYING.

    Current favorites: Drunk in Love, Mine, Superpower…hard to pick.

  48. Loyalty December 14, 2013

    They say they save the best till last. No further question.

  49. Lana Del Bey December 14, 2013

    CAN EVERY SINGLE RIHANNA, GAGA, KATY stan who dragged bey including Honey Child and every pressed hater on this blog STEP forward and formally apologize to you royal highness, she slayed with relevancy and in sales this go round. SEEETH SHE DID THAT

  50. Rosie December 14, 2013

    Yeah I really need to know where Fake Like T***** F*** is. Probably shitting his pants in his Soweto shanty.

  51. Keegan P December 14, 2013

    Rihanna Navy is here so let me take a stand..bottom line I am happy for Beyonce she has been gone for a min and anticipation is high..Rihanna is the Queen no matter..and I wish she would take a break..now Every post I see Rihanna this or that..y’all mention her cuz she is a threat (insert ur laughter) but its true
    What other woman can get the heat she has(black).Rihanna tours and sales are up there with Beyonce’s(not albums).In my opinion they are two different artisit.I prefer Rihanna but live for Beyonce..the b**** slays for every god..and so does Rihanna so let be have her light and when its Rihanna’s time believe me she will slay#rihannanavy

  52. Kingbeybitch December 14, 2013

  53. Hivy December 14, 2013

    Motha f****** queeen!! Ahhhhhhhhhhh b**** just snatched my new growth.

  54. navycommander December 14, 2013

    We should wait until the sales come out next week before y’all ask for any apologies

  55. Amras December 14, 2013

    Absolutely impressive! And it’s just on iTunes. I don’t download on iTunes. So, it’s probably gonna be a megaseller.

    Just look @Lovebird’s comment: “She’s whoring now…” *rolls eyes* but at least Beyoncé gets some credits but for Lovebird & others it seems a bitter pill to swallow.

  56. The Truth Will Set You Free December 14, 2013

    Well dere it is.

  57. gilbert December 14, 2013

    i mean……. WHAT MORE CAN U SAY ABOUT THIS HUH??? FIGURES DON’T LIE!!! DO YA’LL NEED BEY TO PEEL OFF SOME MORE OF YOUR SCALPS?! THIS IS EXACTLY WHY SHE IS QUEEN AND WHY SHE CAN DO WHATEVER THE F*** SHE WANTS, AND WHEN TO DO IT. THIS IS WHYYYY!!!! LOOK AT THEM FIGURES AND THE SUCCESS OF THIS ALBUM……… AND THIS IS WAY I AM PROUD TO BE A PART OF THE BEYHIVE. WHERE MY FAMILY AT? <3

  58. MC!!!!!! December 14, 2013

    always bringing Mimi into everything im still trying to figure what does she have to do with beyonce othen than they both stay in lower manhattan #shrugs

  59. JDE97 December 14, 2013

    This album looks like it’s shaping up to be Beyonce’s Ray of Light/Mimi “comeback”.

    As a Beyonce fan, for years I despised Rihanna simply because I saw her as Bey’s competitor and wanted her run out of town by an angry mob, but instead the universe just kept on rewarding her with more and success. Looks like the same thing is happening with Beyonce. For years, Bey has been the brunt of all kinds of savage and OTT hate on blogs like this by people who were threatened by her for some reason…but looky here, she’s getting the last laugh, while the naysayers are probably somewhere flushed and feverish.

    Moral of the story people is that “Your hate becomes their luck.” When you spend so much time and energy spewing hateful, vile and despicable rhetoric towards someone, karma will reward them just to make a fool of you.

  60. FutureCIARA December 14, 2013

    As if $15.99 didnt help those numbers at all,

    Shes a smart b****, And of course nobody can reach those numbers when they are releasing albums that in a couple weeks are selling for $4.99 with Groupon and Payola deals…..

    (Yes i can drag my own fav when it calls for it! who gone check me though)

    That goes for gaga, as well as Katy. And Rihanna is good for discounting too!

    These numbers are astonishing due to the fact that ‘Beyonce’ sold at $16 digitally, nobody buys music for that much anymore, but she had the material to back it up with… 14songs…??? 17videos…???

    Thats UNHEARD of, artists can’t even release a full album with no more then 10numbers nowadays!

    Im curious to see how much it will discount when it hits retail…….. Probably not by much, if any at all.

  61. CherylSoldier December 14, 2013

    @Lovebird Madonna was DEFINITELY still taking her clothes off @ 32. try again

  62. ENOUGH ONIKA (NEW & IMPROVED) December 14, 2013

    @Lovebird Madonna’s still taking her nasty saggy, veinny titties out at 102. #Sit

  63. HonestApril December 14, 2013

    Girl bye. Rihanna slay like this? Never! You tried. And Beyonces tour will outgross Rihs by a substantial amount…..even if they would’ve had the same amount of shows. BOW DOWN!

  64. HonestApril December 14, 2013

    YASSSSSSSSS BEYONCE!!!!!!! And with NO PROMO.. ONLY QUEEN/KING BEY!!

  66. stop December 14, 2013

    Reading some comment about Bey stealing from other artist, but the funny part is, she does it better and it works for her. lmao Now this is truly how you wig snatch! lol Bey sat back and watched this other “artist” drop their album and flop. Then she said ” I’m gonna show them how it’s done.” This is history y’all! 🙂

  67. 2bad2bme December 14, 2013

    GO OFF ROSIE LMAO YAAASSS B****!

  68. Adamf December 15, 2013

    Wow. Good going beyonce. The album is interesting. The first really exciting album she has made. I respect her for the direction she took this album in.

  69. quetta December 15, 2013

    Didn’t I say she was going to clap back hard?! And honestly the physical copy needs to be here already . I’m really proud of her. She deserves this. Also @shitbird didn’t madonna show her ass while she was performing on stage?

  70. body rock bey December 15, 2013

    To people talking about her “stripper” show:

    Les hommes pensent que les féministes détestent le sexe.

    The dumbasses are reinforcing EXACTLY what Beyoncé was trying to say. Why is it that women are persecuted for sexual performances when men aren’t? Beyoncé is married, she has been with her husband with for ten years or more. She can still be a feminist. Beyoncé is showing love to her husband something expressed through s** and it is natural. The difference is that she doesn’t talk about strippers and degrading women.

  71. Jeremai December 15, 2013

    her numbers still arent as high as mary j. blige or alicia keys first weeks sales… the breakthrough: 729,000 copies in one week. As I Am: 742,000…beat that hahaha don’t believe me..look it up on wikipedia she’s still not number one :O

  72. Tyler December 15, 2013

    @Lovebird

    You know good and damn well that Madonna was taking her clothes off at around this age…why do you have to lie? better yet, why cant you give credit and be done with it? As opposed to writing novels, on novels, on novels…just saying.

  73. Anne December 15, 2013

    @ Jeremai, Do you know how long ago those two examples are? Before illegal downloads. Beyoncé is managing to sell a huge amount in only 3 days while I’m sure the figures you cited were based on a full week. Clearly when you put things in the proper context she is #1.

  74. Lolz December 15, 2013

    @jeremai this is not after a week though this is after ONE DAY

  75. Lolz December 15, 2013

    And who uses wikipedia to look that thing up lmao? Just go over to itunes or billboard sweetheart

  76. Tyler December 15, 2013

    @Jermai

    U act as if these numbers still aren’t impressive…the woman released a WHOLE album with NO RELEASE DATE for crying out loud. Yet she is set to sell 600k in the first week. Sit tf down!

  77. NAVY COMMANDER December 15, 2013

    LMAO at FutureCierror flip flopping and dragging her OWN FAVE? WHAT TYPE OF INCONSISTENT STAN?

  78. Absolved December 15, 2013

    @Jermai

    What were the first week sales of Mary and Alicia’s most recent albums? Uh-huh, right. Grasping at straws is kind of hard, isn’t it? If you don’t have the wit to be a contrarian, then just be quiet. Your desperation there was embarrassing my friend.

  79. Rihboy December 15, 2013

    Ohh b**** booo…..had Rihanna took a year break and did the samething she would have had the same or a much beyter outcome….moreover the album is still some s***. Every video screams Rihanna. ovee sexualized visuals of her steroid taking ass…….its cute her album will be number one for now..with no other releases. However nothing on thid album is worth any praise. Songs about having your twat ate and your hubby c****** on your blouse rarely get any recognition…such a try hard fail.

  80. Tyler December 15, 2013

    B*******! Rihanna’s scientific looking ass couldn’t pull these numbers if she tried. For one, the b**** isn’t even good album seller, nor is she even a better album seller than Beyoncé for that matter. Secondly, Rihanna doesn’t run her camp…her camp runs her. She doesn’t have even remotely enough control to make something like this happen. Unlike Beyoncé, who leads her own team and brand, a stunt like this is not in the cards for Rihanna. So feel free to stop it with all of the hypothetical ifs, ands,or buts.

    Oh! and if songs about S&M, strip clubs and dollar $$$$, and riding rude boys d**** get recognition. Im quite sure songs about “having your twat ate and your hubby c****** on your blouse” can also. Especially if there on an album that’s already sold 430k in its first day of release….Now twirl on that!

  81. BEYHIVE_MINAJ December 15, 2013

    I said this yesterday and I will say it again: YOU ALL HAVE BEEN SHADING AND DISRESPECTING BEYONCE AND THE HIVE ALL YEAR,JUDGING THIS ERA FROM HER ONLY UNDERPERFORMING ONE. NOW,THE RAPTURE IS HERE,AND THE WASPS WILL BE DRAGGED SEVERELY WITH NO MERCY. DIDNT YOU ALL SAY SHE IS DONE? A HAS BEEN? A FLOP? YET SHE OUTSOLD EVERY POP B**** THIS YEAR IN ONE F****** DAY. #BOWDOWN

  82. HOTSTUFF December 15, 2013

    This is impressive, she proved me wrong, so congratulation B! Drunk in Love sounds like a Rihanna’s track that’s my jam ( there’s no shade, probably the Dream…). However i’m curious to see how the project will continue selling in the future. ( if it will be a la JT 20/20….we’ll see.)

  83. HOTSTUFF December 15, 2013

    But the Hive needs to stop with all this ‘no promo’ s***, I agree that she took us by surprise, but once released, she is ALL FUKIN OVER, buying all the itunes Ad-slot and s***….

  84. Scheissethroned(GrapejuiceKing) December 15, 2013

    But it was ROSIE talking the most s*** about Beyonce… Y’all don’t let fake b****** like this even Speak Beyonce’s name out loud I’m a positive way without dragging her fence riding ass

    Anyway… I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this album! I use to STAN for Beyonce since is as a kid but the 4 Era was just a bore for me. I’m so glad to see the Queen is back and better than ever!

    Oh and these sales!?! YASSSSSSS

    oh and I’m a Gaga fan and I’m not pressed. I don’t even see why she’s being talked about in this post when Katy and Miley were promoted just as much if not more than her, but ANYWAY

    THIS IS ALL ABOUT BEYONCE SO I JUST WANNA SHOW MY LOVE AND SUPPORT FOR HER! I bought it and it was worth EVER cent

  85. ItsjustL December 15, 2013

    The Mrs Carter show is really only just beginning folks….. Brace yourself lol

    I love how Beyonce is just doing what the hell she wants to musically because I’ve listened and watched the whole album and it’s right, it feels right, sounds right and looks all the way right, they predicted 200k In the first week and she’s doubled that and now they are predicting 600k – pshh they better not better on that for the end of the 1st week, maybe by Monday night lol. People we are seeing ART sell itself and let’s be honest, no other artist right now can do this! Beyoncé never demanded our attention with this album she simply always has it, that’s why she can drop an album with NO promo whilst having completing 100 shows for her Mrs Carter show and make it look like nothing. Now I don’t know what “Work” means in her dictionary but she’s really making some of the industry artists look REAL lazy right now. They do not call her the QUEEN for nothing !

  86. rihanna is getting bigger and beyonce is decreasing. December 15, 2013

    It is amazing how Rih has the power to FORCE BEY to step her game up. These our good opening day sales; nearly half a mill, this is good. But 600k for a whole week? Seems very basic. People diss britney, but Brit was in her teens doing over a million first week, with no OTT marketing GIMMICKS. Brit’s record still stand.

    Let us be honest, everyone on Msnbc or CNN are talking about her marketing plan: Itunes banners, 17 top END videos, shot all over the world…..in a few months or so, when we all go back to normal, what will happen? This album will sell 3 mill tops, and stall.

    Rih, will not have OTT marketing gimmicks; she will just drop on tuesday as normal. Her 1st week sales will be decent, but what Rih’s 8th LP steadily sell and cross 5 mill.

    RIH REMAINS cool. She never has great 1st week sales, but look

  92. Chica December 15, 2013

    Well she has done well, no doubt about that but she has kind of cheated. If she had released her album in the traditional way would she have outsold Taylor Swift?

  93. BrownSuga December 15, 2013

    OMG this is HUGE.. Oh how this black girl rocks.

    LOL at the day Beyonce dropped her Black Panties on R. Kelly’s face and said “CHOKE ON THAT b****, cus my album out now” (While Jay laughs in the background & Blue calls out Momma).

  94. meena December 15, 2013

  97. TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN!!! December 15, 2013

    @Now predicted to shift over 600,000 units by the end of this chart week, the LP is set to welcome the strongest first week sales secured by a female artist since Taylor Swift‘s ‘Red’ scanned 1.2 million units in the November of 2012.

    Cant top Taylo swift! Ha.. and Taylor didnt release her album under weeks before christmas, when CD sales are at the highest… but still good try.

  102. Nicki Is Queen Other B****** Take A Seat> December 15, 2013

    @Digger Bey listen heaux, Nicki is in her own lane so.. bey is dragging pop bit.ches the nicki part of your comment is invalid. Your probaly right about the oct or nov release but fear kept her away till the coast was clear.And this album isn’t all that great the fact that she’s beyonce is why these sales are high. *waits for second week sale release*

  103. JOHNVIDAL December 15, 2013

    Wow ok TGJ has not been working for me for the last 3 or 4 days so let me tell you I knew this sudden release was happening but I´ve not left one single comment or watched any single video or heard any single song. So I don´t know if the album is even good. And everybody knows I´m not into Beyonce.
    But let me tell you: she SLAYED. Firstly this was the best imaginable way to release this album at this point of her career. She was needing something truly different. Secondly, from what I´m quickly reading (don´t have time to catch up with all the posts) she is slaying commercially. It seems she´ll have one of those truly huge first week sales everywhere, including the USA. I mean, one of those Rihanna, Milye or Katy and the rest of the talentless lessors will never have. Thirdly, let me tell you I can only imagine the meltdowns that have been happening for the last few days. Like I´ve already said, I´m not going to read all these posts and comments. But I can only imagine the anger, the hate, the pathetic reactions from this sad no lives haters who always hate on clearly bigger artists than those who they stan for. I´m especially thinking about @TROLLBIRD. I mean, that must have been the most shocking moment of the year here on TGJ. On time before 2013 ends LOLOL

  104. EEE December 15, 2013

    14 Songs 17 Videos for 600K? Mwahahahahahaha i think it should be 10Million.

  105. DIGGER BEY December 15, 2013

    Lmao This Icki stan. Um sweetie isn’t Nicki a rap popstar?? Thought so. Like i said, watch on the sidelines while THE QUEEN performs having Icki and others n awe.

  106. BEYONCE#1in102COUNTRIES December 15, 2013

    WOW WHERE THE F*** ARE THE NAVY’S AT? HAHA NO PROMO, NO SINGLE JUST AN ALBUM DROPPED OUT OF NOWHERE YET IT SURPASSED THE FIGURES OF YOUR FAVES IN 24 HOURS.
    C’MON HATERS!!!! WHAT YALL SAYIN?

    BOW DOWN B****!

    *SIPS TEA AND PLAYS BLOW

  107. Patrick December 15, 2013

    You do realize most of Beyonce’s biggest fans are gay men right? So you are disrespecting her by this little shtick you are pulling against the gays. Get a life is my only suggestion for you at this time, but I wont hold my breath.
