Beyoncé vs Madonna Album Sales Battle | Chart History

[@moussamerabet5137]

It's not just about sales, it's about influence in the pop world Beyoncé is a strong, wonderful pop artist and an icon, but Madonna created pop and her influence is still popular to this day. Madonna cannot be compared to any other artist, she is unique

[@elm1230]

Madonna did not create pop, but she did indeed revolutionize it

[@ryanahmadzod5991]

Of course, you can't compare her to no one. She can't even sing 😂

Madonna is the queen of pop u can’t compare her to anyone else

[@Matuteilcapo]

Without taking into account the Best selling compilation album! The Immaculate Collection sold more than 40 million copies! Without streaming!! That's why M is thee Queen!

[@christy1385]

This does take that into acxount. All sales from compilations are distributed to the respective albums

[@tchaugn]

@@christy1385 how does that work? If an album has 2/20 songs on the "greatest hits" it gets 10% of their sales?

[@christy1385]

@@tchaugn for example Abba album sales are low, but their ABBA Gold compilation sold extremely high which makes all their album sales huge on chartmasters compared to individually. This is done because you can’t track the streams of compilations because when a song on a compilation is streamed it counts for the album

[@Marc-zi5cq]

You missed plenty of Madonna albums, Immaculate Collection, I'm Breathless, Something To Remember, Who's That Girl, You Can Dance, Evita, GHV2, Celebration etc.

[@inmybed08]

A lot of these are greatest hits compilations, not original releases.

[@bluedragon4]

Skipped The Immaculate Collection, which is Madonna's best selling album.

[@injectablebacon1891]

I don't think it was included, because it was a compilation album, not a studio album.

[@FernandoFernandez-vu2pn]

I guess they were only doing recording albums, not greatest hits, although it did include justify my love and rescue me, which were totally new tracks.

[@giofilipov9169]

Madonna loves Beyonce and vice versa no need for the silly comparisons and fights

[@jamesr2164]

And to think. Madonna hasn't even been recertified in decades and still is the best-selling female musical recording artist in history. Imagine if Warner finally recertified her catalog.

[@endlessness80]

Imagine if they added the Immaculate Collection into this? Madonna had already sold over 100 million records in just 9 years. WILD

[@geenalawrence8338]

Madonna’s global impact is just mindblowing. And to think this list doesn’t even include some of her BEST selling albums like TIC and IM, AND the fact that her music hasn’t been recertified in over a decade. Just incredible.

[@dominicset1615]

Why compared to Beyonce, we already know the result

[@jeffhilbert6212]

You absolutely can't compare the 2. It's a different market and a way of selling music. Beyonce is showing the tremendous staying power, that the press never let Madonna do. But they STILL do. Damn those critics!

[@Moicesy]

Please do not compare 80s artists with younger artists. You can compare Madonna to Michael Jackson and Prince But not Beyoncé, music wasn’t selling the same as it was in the 2000s It was harder back then and there was no streaming service

[@FindingMadonna]

Album sales peaked in the 2000s.

[@inmybed08]

It was easier back then because people were actually purchasing music and there were physical units that could be counted. Now people just stream a couple songs here and there, and you can't get a proper count.

Madonna vem do auge das vendas puras, Beyoncé veio na época onde a pirataria estava em alta, deveria ter incluído a discografia da Destiny's Child.. eu sei que mesmo incluindo as vendas da banda, Madonna continuaria no topo, porém Beyoncé não ficaria tão ruim na lista, acho que seria mais justo.

Why do you have to hate on bey?

[@tmz85]

Madonna had a twenty year head start on Beyoncé. Is this a fair metric? Anyway, they’re both iconic and the industry wouldn’t be the same without them.

[@MarvelMex]

this is not about who's been longer in the throne, this is about sales, just to make sure, Madonna's first 4 albums sold around 100 million copies, and beyonce's 4 first albums sold 50+ million, even if you compare albums sales today, taylor sold more albums than beyonce, so is Not about how many years head start Madonna had.

[@graphiquejack]

@@MarvelMextrue, but the industry is completely different now with streaming. I think it’s all apples to oranges, but obviously Madonna has had wider worldwide success than Beyoncé, who’s core audience is the States. I really don’t care when it comes to it. Respect to both artists… but no one is Madonna, in terms of women in music.

[@elianbarcia5988]

[@icydelight3693]

chartmasters has daily updates, Beyoncé is at 98 millions (+50 millions with Destiny’s Child). Maybe chartmasters with their CPSC method uses a different way of counting streaming/digital sales/pure sales, but it’s up to date

[@icydelight3693]

@@tita390 chartmasters is a very serious source with a very transparent method (the CSPC method that allows to compare all formats). The music industry often makes inaccurate claims just to gain attention, such as saying that Mariah or Celine are the best selling female artists of all time, or saying that Elvis and The Beatles sold 1 billion which is based on an old counting method according to which every artist that sold 167 millions records would have reached 1 billion (including Mariah). Reality is that according that the CPSC method they sold between 320 and 425 millions, not more than one billion. That’s why I am saying that the method used is important, maybe chartmasters and columbia use slightly different counting methods. Chartmasters is unbiased and very up to date, I don’t think that they would disregard Beyoncé’s latest sales, given the fact that they update sales daily

[@andresan7762]

Like a Virgin and True Blue 30m?!!! What a fake.

[@yanisx]

That includes pure sales + streaming equivalent album sales, that's why both are above 30M thanks to their hits still being streamed daily
