I think 'Unapologetic' can do 10+ million if she continues the good promo and shoots the damn videos.

I wouldn't say 10m. I'd say probably 6m, if promo and single releases are done right. There'd also probably have to be a re-release. But seriously, Unapologetic has so much hidden potential to be a big success. I don't even think Rihanna or Def Jam realize it.

Unapologetic is doing better in the US than Talk That Talk did last I checked (dunno current numbers though). That's honestly a really good sign, cause Rihanna has the WW markets wrapped around her finger. She just needs to work on the US at this point.

I wish Unapologetic could sell 5M, but it probably won't unless she continues good singles and momentum.

Unapologetic will probably only sell a little over 3 million because, lets face it, another album will be coming out in a few months and will stunt it's growth.

It's high numbers but now that music sales are starting to recover and taking in count that 'Unapologetic' contains all the possible singles to fill an era like 'Good Girl Gone Bad' (Including Reloaded without a re-release), I think it's not that hard.
Katy Perry did it from being a regular pop girl to releasing a hugely successful era like 'Teenage Dream' with way safer tracks. I think Rihanna can do it with a little bit of continuous confidence.

Stay will probably get this to 3 million. The only other singles that I see pushing album sales are 'What Now' or 'Jump'.

Im praying Unapologetic does at least 5M WW. I think she can do it. Shes only halfway there and the year is still young. She can do it if she promotes it right and keep releasing the right singles. 3 more strong WW singles for the rest of the year will do just that. Jump, Lost In Paradise and maybe Right Now because lets face it shes gonna release it at some point in time. But for the US she needs to make sure shes marketing her self and the project because usually this is the market that usually keeps her back. If Unapologetic can push at least 600,000 more copies before December she's in great shape.

I'm so glad Rihanna's label is allowing the singles to breath and achieve their best peaks. Diamonds was huge and for the first time, they took their time to release the follow up. Now that she's smashing with a ballad, there's so much potential on the album and she can have another era like GGGB. Urban, Pop and Rhytmic are all around her finger. Considering Pour It Up and Loveeeeeee Song are already Urban hits, she can still release Jump, Right Now, Lost in Paradise, Numb or Nobody's Bussiness (even, if personally, the Chris Brown factor repulses me, but the song is a smash). Any of them are huge hits in the waiting. I honestly loved the yearly album release, but if she plays her cards right, this can be a huge era and I hope she takes the time to release these songs.

Right has already been *****d and played out to death in most of Europe though. I don't think it'll be a single.

Stay and Diamonds have really pushed Unapologetic farther than i expected, PIU wont really due much but get more urban buyers i think Right Now will be a singe it should be she needs another pure pop smash, Jump is cute but its not single worthy What Now should be a single andf then maybe NLO or LIP as an ending single for the era
