Beyonce's 2016 album, Lemonade, is proving to be one of the biggest musical offerings of 2016. The visual album sold 58,000 in pure sales in the most recent tracking week, according to Hits Daily Double. The number rises to 83,000 when factoring its TIDAL-exclusive streams.
The feat brings its total US sales over the 1 million mark (to be exact, 1,053,971). With SPS (Sales Plus Streaming), it's 1,486,221.
In reaching this major milestone, ‘Lemonade' becomes the first and only album by a female artist released in 2016 to go platinum in pure sales. It's also part of a super elite list of releases, from any gender, to enjoy success – the most notable other being Drake's ‘VIEWS.'
Lemonade is Beyonce's sixth studio album, and it was released on April 23.
