Johnny was talking about success that has matched Gaga since her peak (which I then said Loud and Teenage Dream). It's not even a fair comparison cause he was talking about the TF(M), while I thought it was BTW.

I personally think it's because Rihanna has had a good share of flop singles and she's gotten back up from them all. There's a lot of insurance in her versatility and longevity on the radio. Lady Gaga flopped for her very first time this era (arguably twice) and people aren't sure if she can get back up after it. I personally think coming back strong shouldn't be hard for her at all.

No it was successful.

Successful .

They are

No it wasn't

To everyone: Loud is bigger than BTW let's not argue, but not bigger than TTT

Yes and no, it did okay, but would have done better if it wasn't for a disastrous single choice (Judas).

Sorry, but in my opinion TTT is far better and Loud is only her third best album.
