Beyoncé’s album ‘cowboy carter’ on April 8, 2024 emerged at the top of billboard 200 chart, and was ranked number one album of her storied career.

In addition, Beyoncé who is an American singer, song writer and actress became the first Black woman to top Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart with the 27-track second act in her “Renaissance” trilogy.

“Cowboy Carter,” which dropped on March 29, debuted with 407,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in the week ending April 4, according to Billboard and music industry data provider Luminate.

Her album is a rowdy, wide-ranging homage to Beyoncé’s southern heritage and features a constellation of music stars, from country legends Dolly Parton and Willie Nelson to current hitmakers Miley Cyrus and Post Malone.

The album has become the most streamed album in a single day so far on Spotify in 2024.

It is the best debut of 2024 so far and also the biggest since Taylor Swift dropped “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” in November 2023, Billboard said.

She also covered Paul McCartney’s Beatles song Blackbiird, stylised with the double-i spelling to match “Act II.”

“I think she does a magnificent version of it and it reinforces the civil rights message that inspired me to write the song in the first place,” McCartney said in a statement when the album debuted.

Beyoncé previously topped the Billboard charts with “Dangerously in Love” (2003), “B’Day” (2006), “I Am… Sasha Fierce” (2008), “4” (2011), “Beyonce” (2013), “Lemonade” (2016) and “Renaissance” (2022).

She dropped the album’s first two singles, “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages” during the Super Bowl in February and announced the full album’s release date.
