This ain't a global chart is a local chart where her stans claim she is big

She has never been a big selling act.

45. Lady Gaga, 'The Fame Monster' (2009)
Portrait shots can be iconic when done just right, and if there’s one artist who knows about iconic imagery, it’s Lady Gaga. For the re-release of her debut The Fame, Mother Monster -- framed by a white wig -- went black and white, rocking a shiny, angular coat that shrouded the lower half of her face.

Godga also making the Best Album Covers list.

The BEYONCE album cover making this list over 4's album cover. Now this is an actual objective list that can be criticized.

ain't it funny that Beyoncé didn't make the chart while Luke Bryan did? I thought she was a legend in the US.

And the moment you call him "local", the Hive wants to vehemently disagree. It's one or the other.

Beyoncé is pretty local yes, but no as much as many people here make her out to be. She still outgrosses "global" acts in Europe and other places outside of the US and has sold more albums outside of the US..

But she gets TONS and TONS of radio airplay...

She's just not a massive music seller, she is only consistent. But not the huge artist her stans claim her to be.

People are aware of all of Bén his releases; they just choose not to purchase the music. None want it.

The "kind of music" Beyoncé records is quite big in the USA and the "urban community" but She's never had a real big álbum, specially for such an "albums act".

I'm so glad my fave is gl0bal and above this.

[Nicole]

Beyoncé on Coldplay's album? She keeps winning.

Sammi will be pleased.

When he preformed his entire ablum at the VMAs and no one except a handful of gay stans cared.

That top 20 Rihanna is unarguably a legend now.

He could not even ship 10M+ of an album in 2003.

Rih is def the madge of our generation though.

in terms of quality she's way more of a britney: quality of singles grossly outweighs the quality of albums.

ofc, they both have the reverse of the other (big albums vs big singles) which are indicative of the time period in which they were most successful.

No promo for the era, though.

Maybe if we add Destiny's Child sales she can make the list.

Two of the most important lists.

Beyst can stay in the best album covers chart.
