Beyoncé Debuts Strong Despite Having No Hit Singles

As expected, Beyoncé's fourth solo studio album, "4," debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, selling 310,000 copies according to Nielsen SoundScan. It's the diva's fourth solo No. 1 -- and fourth studio set to top the list. She's only the third act - and second woman - to see their first four albums debut atop the Billboard 200. "4's" sales launch is lowest of her four releases: 08's "I Am ... Sasha Fierce" entered with 482,000; 06's "B'Day" bowed with 541,000 and 03's "Dangerously In Love" started with 317,000.

Also arriving in the top 10 this week is rapper Big Sean's debut album "Finally Famous" (No. 3 with 87,000), Selena Gomez & the Scene's third set "When the Sun Goes Down" (No. 4 with 78,000), David Cook's sophomore effort "This Loud Morning" (No. 7 with 46,000) and Scotty McCreery's Wal-Mart exclusive five-song EP "American Idol Season 10 Highlights" (No. 10 w/ 40,000).

4 is a HORRIBLE album.
