Beyoncé and JAY-Z’s surprise joint album Everything Is Love is No. 2 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, behind Australian pop rock band 5 Seconds of Summer’s Youngblood. Everything Is Love moved a total of 123,000 units compared to 142,000 units for Youngblood.
Each of Beyoncé and JAY-Z’s previous solo albums—Lemonade and 4:44—debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Everything Is Love was expected to put up lower numbers in its first week, however, because it was released exclusively via TIDAL on Saturday before later showing up on the subscription tiers of competing streaming services. The album’s comparatively low first week numbers can in part be attributed to a shortened week of availability and streaming service exclusivity.

🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
Welp, Drake already destroyed the Carters in one day, lol, proving that people just didn't want to be bothered with Bey or Jay.

Album is trash! They flopped and were embarrassed by an Australian band. Next week, Drake will trash all of them.
Selling your soul can only get you so far…
Didn't even know it was released
Love to Mr. and Mrs. Carter. They have the best music out there right now. FRIENDS.
Production on this is Incredible.
you do know legends can put out flops, not saying it is though
So I guess Nas came in 3rd-5th?
Solo Beyonce is Legendary music.
Nasir top album
It was out on Apple Music the very next day though. That’s how I listened to the album
Congrats Carters
that album went double plastic hahahah
Why do nas like that lol
L for both of them. Beyoncé is an overrated, fading star with an annoying fanbase. Jay is pretty much the most overrated rapper ever, not even in the top 10, just a good businessman and that's it.
Just like Lil Kim spicy, they are on autoskip now.
Petty how he did it with the nas thing..nas finally get his time and jay all a sudden releases a album that nobody knew about lmao..he’s still mad over either..
They were good in the 2000s they dead now
Nasir
Both Beyoncé and Jay Z solo album all debuted at #1. Beyonce’s six albums and Jay Z’s fouteen.
All these fucking excuses…it's a fucking flop
Album was trash ye and Cudi did better numbers and had a way better project
1:24 – "…for the latest on B & J, subscribe to Complex News on YouTube"
no thanks my G, PornHub already got that locked
In this album, Jay-Z is as excellent as he was in The Black Album. Beyonce had bars better than any mumble rapper not named Future, Desiigner and Lil Uzi Vert. It should be #1 regardless of availability or exclusivity but times are changing.
All I keep seeing is drake fans and more life gave me less life all them songs and 4 has replay value and was a forgettable album. The joint album was a solid project and definitely will pick up even more traction as the tour incorporates the new songs and visuals are released
Beyoncé is overrated as fuck…so is her husband joe camel
Nope I don't give a f*** about that numbers know what that numbers are it spells out Lucifer you understand Jay-Z is still crying in the mirror about Nas saying dick sucking lips on the disowned eat there which was years ago so they come out with the album on the same day as Nas there a bunch of f**** haters him and Beyonce with her satanic ass!!!
For all the ignorant people out their it streaming only meaning thats over 187,500,000 streams right please correct me if I'm wrong
Jay Z and Beyonce are just not good enough any more to compete with the new music that's playing right now, plus albums sales are overrated anyone these days can sell a song or album.
I click to this shit by accident. Fuck jaybz and boyonce they fake
So we basing if an album is good or not by its streaming numbers now.
wish these 2 would go away…………their songs SUCK
For all those people acting like Beyoncé and Jay flopped, that is far from the case. Tidal just didn't report their numbers to Billboard, just like they chose not to with Jay's 4:44
Sorry drake fans take another L
the haters flocked to this video w the quickness. this is honestly their fault for not promoting it and having it debut exclusively on tidal on a saturday w only 4 days of sales
How many did it sell first week?
I took a W for not listening. Come at me beehive!
We gets money 💰
Its also on deezer
L….no excuses..xxx went no.1..with no vid and bad press….L
All of this "they falling off talk" is very funny idk about J but B will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes oh and fuck blackface wearing drake
lol who else thought gay z looked like a hobo im the thumbnail 😂😂
