It's time to bow down again, because Beyoncé is serving up some ***Flawless album sales.
Queen Bey's newest album and visual work of art, "Lemonade," has debuted at No. 1. According to Nielsen Music, the album moved 653,000 equivalent album units.
Not only does that mean "Lemonade" had the best selling week for any 2016 album so far, it also marks the sixth No. 1 album in a row for the singer. Billboard reports that Beyoncé is the only artist, male or female, to accomplish such a feat.
Beyoncé released her visual album via HBO on April 23 to critical acclaim. Variety said that the network plans to submit "Lemonade" for Emmy consideration. The singer is currently touring with her Formation World Tour, which kicked off April 27 in Miami.
Bey will probably only enjoy her reign at No. 1 for about a week, as Forbes claims Canadian rapper Drake reportedly outsold the singer's album in just one day. Thankfully, Drake knows who's boss:
