With these sales figured, Beyonce will trump most of this year’s big debuts including her husband Jay-Z’s Magna Carta Holy Grail, which sold 528,000 opening week, Kanye West’s Yeezus, which sold 327,000 copies first week, and One Direction, who sold 546,000 of their album in the first week.

All of those album had a full week sale, which Beyonce only had four days.
