NEW YORK CITY, N.Y. – Superstar BEYONCE has nothing to fear as her fourth album hits stores on Tuesday. The Crazy In Love diva is predicted to sell nearly 700,000 albums within her first week of sales.
With an album that leaked nearly a month before it was scheduled to be released, many thought that Beyonce’s stardom wasn’t enough to pull in some big numbers in its first week. Well, that’s clearly not the case. Not only is 700,000 a huge number for any musician for first week sales, except Lady Gaga who sold 1.1 million her first week with a price tag of $0.99 each, but the fans already have the music. EVERY SINGLE SONG.
Certain executives within Beyonce’s label, Columbia Records, believe that Beyonce’s album leak was planned by her and her team. Yes, insinuating that Beyonce wanted her album to leak! Although, it is against the music label’s policy to leak your own album, one executive at Columbia believes it might not have been such a bad idea.
“According to reports, we are hearing that Beyonce is prepared to sell about 700,000 copies of the album ‘4’ which comes out Tuesday, June 28th,” said one insider. “It’s very good news for us and Beyonce.”
