Beyonce’s reign has come to an end. The singer’s ’4′ album has fallen from the peak of the Billboard 200, slipping to the brink of the top 5 while chart rival Adele’s ’21′ continues to excel in the top 3.
’4′ sold 72k copies this week, falling by a staggering 37% to #5 on the chart and bringing its total sales to 498k after only 3 weeks. Contrarily, Adele’s ’21′ maintains momentum at #3 by experiencing only a 3% dip in sales to 77k after 21 weeks on the tally. To date, the record has sold over 2.67 million copies in the US.
On the Hot 100 LMFAO’ ’Party Rock Anthem (Ft. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock)’ remains its lead at #1 by selling another 215k downloads and attracting 134 million audience impressions. The track is closely followed by Pitbull’s ‘Give Me Everything (Ft. Ne-Yo, Afrojack & Nayer)’ which sold 136k downloads with 153 million impressions.

Adele continues to slay. Beyonce will be lucky to sell pass one million in the US. Not surprised as both her 2 singles are underwhelming
congrats 2 adele but beyonce will have it back soon
Who the fuck is still buying Adele’s album! I ain’t mad, it’s amazing.
What ever happened to this “extensive 18 month promo plan” she was laughing. I just HATE that she is being so poorly managed right now. Especially with an album that will NOT sell itself. Bday and IASF could have still been successful like this. 4 is different. She can’t afford to be so lack luster like this. Ugh.
WHO CARES ABOUT THIS DUMB BITCHES
TEH QUEEN IS RELEASING NEW ALBUM BY THE END OF THE YEAR….

Wow @ Katy she may hit 2x platinum… may…
Adele isn’t playing, to still be selling albums after the 2milli mark is hard to do now. CONGRATS!!!!
Beyonce better start promo, its taking her a month to reach gold.

LOL enough said!!
Beyonce’ is definitely far from over. Wait until “Countdown” and “End Of Time” are released.
Beyonce is not over. Jay-Z and the others need to stept up their game with her career. Now I believe Matthew Knowles when he said that her new management team is not doing nothing for her
Trent who have the #1 cd ?
4 will NOT pass the 1MIL mark in the US u just watch and see!!! Britney is struggling so who the fukk is Beyonce hmm 4 is a FLOP!!
@jay_scorpio
bitch…4 has been out for a lesser amount of time then Femme Fatale, and is catching up to it in sales
yall haters continue to call 4 a flop are pressed…you said the album would flop, yet it debuted at #1 with 1st week sales higher then most of the other girls…you said 4 would flop and not go Gold, yet by next week it will be Gold with sales of over 500k
I bet when it reaches 1mil sales in the US, yall will still call it a flop
lol 4 is about to outsell FlopFatale even though FF has been out longer with 2 top 10 singles! Remain infuriated!
