Beyonce’s Lemonade album lands at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, giving Bey her sixth chart-topper.
The project earned 653,000 equivalent album units in the week ending April 28, according to Nielsen Music. Pure album sales comprised 485,000 of that sum.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks albums by traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).
Lemonade was introduced on April 23 through its same-titled film, which was soundtracked by the album’s songs, and premiered on HBO. The album went on sale through other digital retailers, but Tidal remains the only service with streaming rights to the set. A physical version of the album will be released on May 6.
All six of Beyonce’s studio albums have debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
