I don't think you're getting the point. Looking at the chart, she statistically speaking would
not be on the top 10, let alone #5. Not only that, but it was on the debut of the album itself, and the hype was astronomical. Besides, what do those albums have anything to do with this? They're not the same, they're not the same artist. Yes, Lady Gaga's far bigger than any other album on that list you gave me. I'm not denying that. That being said, you take away Gaga's 99 cent deal, and she is not on that chart of top 10 digital albums. That's fact.
I think you're taking my initial post as shade, which I specifically said it wasn't. It was sincerely stating as a level-headed fan (not a stan) that she only got it because of that deal, and until you can prove otherwise, my statement remains true. I stand by my statement, I still congratulate her and says she works hard to earn these accomplishments, and I'm excited for ARTPOP. What more do you want?
