Did you know that Beyonce’s ‘Dangerously in Love’ was only the 30th best-selling album in the US during the last 10 years?
Currently listed as Beyonce’s best-selling album, ‘Dangerously in Love’ has sold 4.83 million copies in the US since 2003. However, the record was far from being ranked among the top-sellers of the last 10 years (March 10th 2002 to March 11th 2012) as it only placed at #30 on the list.
Among the albums that outsold ‘Dangerously in Love’ are Usher’s ‘Confessions’ (#3 with 9.97 million), Adele ’21′ (#4 with 8.09 million) and Nelly’s ‘Nellyville’ (#11 with 6.49 million). It should be noted, though, that only 2 albums by female R&B artists ranked in the top 30 – Beyonce’s ‘Dangerously in Love’ and Mariah Carey’s ‘The Emancipation of Mimi’. The latter LP placed at #15 with 5.96 million copies sold.
