Written by SOURCE on August 7, 2022
The Queen reigns supreme.
Beyoncé’s long-awaited album Renaissance debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and became the biggest week for a female artist this year after earning 332,000 equivalent album units. Of that sum, 190,000 consisted of traditional album sales, 138,000 were comprised of SEA units, equaling 179.06 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks. The remaining 4,000 came by way of TEA units.
Renaissance is Bey’s seventh solo No. 1 album on the Billboard 200, and is the first album released by a woman to take the top spot this year. Only Harry’s House by Harry Styles had a bigger sales week in 2022 when it amassed 521,500 equivalent album units back in May.
