    Written by Trent | Filed under Adele,Beyonce,Bruno Mars,Charts,Eminem,Jill Scott,Katy Perry,Lady GaGa,Lil Wayne,Nicki Minaj,Pitbull

    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

      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.

      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.

      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

      @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
