Solange's numbers are incorrect, that's her total in sales. She debuted with 49K.

Christina's debut was never released in the states.

Or her album and rollout was good :dead:

If that's the case Kelly and Michelle would have high numbers just based on association

Kelly and Michelle weren't part of the drama. Letoya was. The Beyoncé naysayers had high hopes. Those high hopes only lasted a few weeks

Letoya had a better album rollout than Kelly.

Kelly's album was quickly rushed after the success of Dilemma and her going the alternative R&B route didn't help either tbh. I don't think DC fans expected that type of album from her.

Michelle is literally the replacement
She's part of the drama because ppl criticized her and made comparisons to LeToya

So, what other success did Letoya see outside her debut single and the first few weeks of the album release? Every other single flopped. Her second album only sold 40k first week. What happened?

The way Rihanna said "THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST, AND THE LOWEST SHALL RISE THE HIGHEST".

Now she is standing on top of all of those girls with no album out in almost 10 years and still in high demand.
Oh yeah, and independently, she is the richest one out of them all on the list.
