Will Beyonce's 4 go to number #1 next week?
As we know on Sunday, Beyonce is closing Glastonbury on Sunday which should give her an advantage of having potential great sales for 4 in the UK next week. Also that week she doesn't have competition (besides Gaga and Adele).
So do you think she can score her second UK #1 album? |

One thing I don't understand these days is why artists release singles, then WEEKS later they release the album. Avril released What The Hell like seven weeks before Goodbye Lullaby, Chris Brown released Yeahx3 weeks before F.A.M.E, Britney released Femme Fatale weeks after Hold It Against Me (although Til The World Ends was randomly thrown on iTunes a week or two before, I think?) and now Beyonce released Run The World weeks ago (it's been in the charts like eight weeks) and NOW she releases the album?
Shouldn't the album be released the week after the single? |

I'm not sure, but if she does it'll be tight, and most likely not for more than one week.
I'm going to say "Yes", on the off-chance that her fans might realise she has new material out after Glastonbury. |

AND Best Thing I Never Had is being released on the 3rd of July for some reason, ONE whole week after the album?

I think she will, just without remarkable sales.

Love to say Yes, but I don't think Glasto is that much of promotion, it's on at 10pm on BBC 2
, only her fans will watch that, she needs to do more promotion, alan carr or graham norton would be the best options.I think she will chart Top 5, then fall, unfortunately. |

It depends on her competition. If it's a quiet week then yeah she will.

Maybe. I'd say she's a bit more likely not to, just off the back of RTW and a bit of interest in BTINH.

despite being at number 2 opened with like 90k sales then sold 300k in one week despite being at number two. number one isn't everything. |

It will probably enter at #1, but I can see it doing a Bionic and flopping on its arse.

I can't see it getting to No.1 Top 5 I reckon. It's a shame as what I've heard so far it's brilliant. Definitely an album for the fans.

I think it might do better than how some people think. It'll do better than Bionic that's for sure, and be more critically acclaimed.

I don't think that it will go to #1 next week but I definately think it will do better than Bionic!
![]() TBH 4 is actually a really good album whereas Bionic wasn't and that was why it flopped, 4 does not deserve to flop! I think that this could actually be Beyonce's best album so far!!!

A lot of people are also saying they think this is her best album. |

Agreed! The only negatives I've read about 4 is about Run The World, which I didn't like but I don't really mind about that now, the album more than made up for it!

As much as i like Beyonce '4' Era has been a disaster available weeks ago i even downloaded 'cause i was going to still buy it' but after listening to it a few times it hasnt grown on me at all
She needs to do some major Promo if she wants another No.1 album as the album imo is very week compared to her last albums. |
