Beyonce’s Self-Titled New Album Sold 80,000 Copies In First Three Hours


Beyonce’s self-titled new album, which sold 80,000 copies in its first three hours alone is headed straight for no. 1 on the Billboard charts with through-the-roof first week sales projections. Released on Friday exclusively through iTunes, the self-titled album is set to debut at number one on Billboard’s album charts next week. The project has now sold over 430,000 copies in just one day, and with two more days remaining in the sales week, Bey’s fifth solo album could sell over 600,000 units.

According to Billboard, the final number will become the biggest debuting album by a female artist since Taylor Swift’s Red LP sold 1.2 million copies opening week back in November 2012. Passing 600,000 will make this album Beyonce’s best debut and biggest sales week ever, surpassing 2006′s B’day album, which sold 541,000 opening week in September 2006.
