France Album Sales: Beyonce

Beyonce (2013) Era

The surprise release of Beyonce eponymous album just before Christmas 2013 took the US by storm. It wasn’t that much of a storm in France yet as the set debuted at #24. Considering sales needed on Christmas week to rank at this position yet the album debut wasn’t as bad as it first looked. An illustration of how incredible sales are at this time of the year, despite charting only two weeks in 2013 and at positions 24-27, the set was #122 in the year end chart with 44,000.

Drunk In Love lead single slowly climbed to #9 position during 2014 and ended as one of her biggest hits with an impressive 58 weeks charted. Although remaining singles haven’t sustain the album as well it still was the #93 seller of 2014 with 53,000 units.
