It is one of the highest selling albums to be released in the last twenty years, moving over 9 million copies worldwide.
Now the album ‘21‘ by Brit Pop diva Adele has achieved another feat.
As of today it has spent 34 weeks in the top 5 of the UK album chart, cementing her status as one of the highest selling artists in chart history.
More information below…
Charting at #2 this week, the LP has remained a staple in the top 5 despite being released now more than nine months ago.
Spawning the well loved songs, ‘Rolling In The Deep‘ and ‘Set Fire To The Rain‘ , it resides 6 chart positions above it’s predecessor ‘19′ which is this weeks #8.
At #14 is is Amy Winehouse‘s ‘Back To Black‘ which sits one spot above Lady GaGa‘s ‘Born This Way‘.
One place behind ‘Born’ is ‘Loud‘ by Rihanna at #16 whilst Jessie J‘s ‘Who You Are‘ sits comfortably at #19, two spots above Beyonce‘s ‘4‘ which is this week’s #21.
Congrats

Congrats to Adele. Props to Jessie J, that’s great for a new comer!
“moving over 8 million copies in the US alone.” oh?? did it??
Congratulations!
@thatgrapejuice 34 weeks isn’t even 8 months it’s 7 3/4 months every 3 months has 13 weeks in it so nine has 39 and Technically it’s been out in England for 35 weeks this week as it was released January 19th and technically in the US it’s been out 31 weeks or seven months as it was released February 22nd it’s sold 3.4 million in the US and 3.08 million in the UK in it’s major markets it’s sold 8.9 million since release
Get it Adele….No one is stopping her reign!
TGJ stuff need to get his s*** together! Adele has moved 8 or 9 million copies WW, not in the USA alone! lol
Anyway, congrats to her. All I´m asking is a few more people as good as her that could compete in top of the charts. like 15 years ago when there were several big acts with real talent selling with these impressive numbers at the same time. This is she has it so easy to stay there forever. Apart from Gaga there is absolutely nobody else
Loud is out selling the so called “CLASSIC” album “4” and it was only released a couple months ago! lol I cant!! Bey fans hang it up..Flat Screen
It’s been in the top 3. It’s at 9.75 ww. 3.5 in the US. f****** retards.
really Sam ?!
Rihanna is the 2nd best slayer after ADELE using her 2010’s ALBUM !
go queen SLAYADELE !
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WHAT ???????????????
Loud is ALREADY back ahead for 4closuredespite being released last year?
How’s that for a humble pie TGJ?
lmao
What are the haters going to say when ‘4’ resurges similiar to the way ‘Loud’ just did? Bey is basically between singles right now. Just be happy for your fave and move on, no need to hate when all of the ladies listed above are actually doing well.
RUM PUM PUM PUM
RUM PUM PUM PUM
RUM PUM PUM PUM
ME SAY 1 B**** DOWN
@ANNE
Go sit down
Loud didn t just resurge. It is actually one of its lowest ranking since its released in the UK.
Loud has not spent a single day outside the top20 yet… unlike 4closure
Loud didn’t even see the outsideofthe top10 after its release… and as yet to see the outside of the top20
Loud didn’t even see the outside of the top10 until 7 MONTHS after its release… and as yet to see the outside of the top20
Moving up to 16 after descending to number 20 (its position last week) is a resurgence, if you don’t believe me look up the word in the dictionary.
Anyway, this is only one chart (UK). On the US chart ‘4’ is sitting in the # 9 position while ‘Loud’ is all the way down to # 40.
Alot of bey stans are attacking rihanna because beyonce flopped. They can’t attack adele at this point because that would be silly – so they wanna drag rihanna and jump on adele’s boat when in reality they need to be dragging beyonce becuae she’s is not living up to her titles would be talking MAJOR S*** if beyonce’s album was doing as well as adele’s and you know it. You bey stans need to quit riding on other artist coattail when they are doing better then beyonce – jump offf and stick to your flop.
LMAO
Too bad it look like this week 4closurewon r even make it into the top15 in the usa either.
ALREADY!
OUCH

Regarding my first comment – sorry for the typo ; )
Congrats Adele….but I still can’t believe she’s selling that amount of albums when the album is just slightly above average.
BLEACHonce is ALREADY #21????
What a TRAGEDY that RiRis album is charting higher and it was released MUCH EARLIER.
BLEACHonce=washed up
&ROUNDdele is nothing but a SENSATION..like Susan Boyle 😉
