Which of these two massive artists had the bigger peak
Is it the iconic, legendary, flawless Taylor swift with Fearless or is it the massive impactful beyonce with DIL?
DIL is Beyonce's peak? I thought it was IASF. Oh, well. Anyway, I was 6 when DIL was released, so I don't remember it, but I think selling 9 million (according to Mediatraffic in May 2013) for a 2003 album is not better than selling 8.3 million (according to Mediatraffic in May 2013) for a 2008 one. So
