The Knowles family have been staples in the entertainment industry for a very long time now. Though Beyonce and Solange are both veterans to the industry and very talented musicians, Solange has just hit a new career milestone recently. Forbes is reporting that Solange’s most recent album has hit number one on the Billboard charts. This is a first in the singer’s career and has many people talking about her most recent project.
The news of this recent success of the singers came this Sunday. Her newest album is titled A Seat at the Table. Forbes is reporting that the album has sold a total of 72,000 units since its release. Of all of those sales, 46,000 are actual albums. This means that the singer was actually able to do as well in online streaming as she was in actual sales. The news of the success of the latest album along with the praise that the singer is getting from long time fans and colleagues is getting the singer even more attention and attracting a new audience.
A Seat at the Table is Solange’s third full-length album. Forbes is also reporting that this is only her second time reaching the top 8 of the Billboard list, and it’s her first time getting to the very top of the list. Much like the surprise tactics her sister often uses when releasing new music, Solange did not give her fans much prior notice that her newest album was on its way. Some videos in relation to the album have been dropped, but no proper single has been released in conjunction with it. Now that the fans have propelled it to number one, many expect that to be the singer’s next step.
Solange Knowles is a notable and talented artist in the music industry. This success marks her talent as an artist and is a milestone for her continuously growing career.
