Beyoncé's 'Lemonade' Projected to Sell 500,000 Copies In First Week
Queen Bey is back on top. After serving up her visual album LEMONADE to scrutiny, adoration, and controversy, the project is expected to land at No. 1 on next week’s Billboard 200 albums chart.
According to Billboard, Bey’s latest could sell 500,000 copies and more than 700,000 equivalent album units in its opening week.
LEMONADE made its debut on April 23 following an hour-long special on HBO. Immediately after, the album dropped as a TIDAL exclusive and by Monday (Apr. 25), it was available at other digital retailers, including iTunes and Amazon. This is all happening without physical sales, as those will be available starting May 6.
