Meaning was your fave's debut pretty impressive, but their second era failed to live up to the first album's success? Discuss and include receipts if needed
BTW, my fave is Taylor and she obviously didn't since FEARLESS (her sophomore album) is her most successful era to date.
Nope. Rihanna's second album, A Girl Like Me, sold 1.3 million copies in the US and nearly 4M copies worldwide and spawned the Hot 100 #1 single (her first #1 by the way) SOS and top 10 singles Unfaithful and Break It Off.
Yes and no.
People were heated that she went pop. And she had some messy antics.
That being said: THIS WAS AN IMPORTANT AND HUGE ERA!
It allowed her to brand herself, go international, become even more famous, have 2 tours, AND break a chart record with Starships.
So I guess NOPE!
