Most front-loaded albums recently
Whereas albums like PRISM, Pure Heroine, and 21 have had great longevity,
others, like BEYONCE, ARTPOP, and Ghost Stories, haven't fared that well after their first week/first month.
What are some others?

And yet frontloaded 'BEYONCE' still sold more than non-frontloaded PRISM.

Eh, I wouldn't put Beyonce in a group with Artpop or Ghost Stories.
Its longevity is solid, if unspectacular.

BEYONCÉ takes the cake
It has been the most frontloaded album of the decade and I'm not sure if also of the century by a mainstream artist, it literally felt down like a rock!

Dummies. If an album sells mightily for a month and sells like other average albums afterwards, there's nothing embarrassing about that. If it sold 100k first week and 2k afterwards, that is "Frontloaded".

Not when ARTPOP, born this way, ultra violence etc were way more frontloaded.
But I'm not surprised you're here. All of your posts are dedicated to Beyonce. You're basically a member of the hive now

PRISM is about to fall off the Billboard 200. Beyoncé is still on the charts after nearly a year. I'd say that those two had or will have about the same type of longevity.
21 has proven its longevity.

Born This Way was selling 100k the beginning of 2012, almost a year later

Even if Prism falls next week, Beyoncé would've to last like two more months to match Prism's longetivity since Prism was released in October.

And there's a very good chance of that happening with the Grammy nominations and the re-release coming within the next month.
