The 12-song visual album was released by Parkwood/Columbia Records on April 23, 2016, and was the soundtrack to the HBO special of the same name.

 

 

 

According to Billboard, “Following its release, all 12 of the album’s songs debuted on the Billboard Hot 100. Lemonade was also 2016’s third-biggest-selling album and one of only two albums released that year to sell at least 1 million copies.”
