How did this turn into a Beyoncé vs Rihanna thing? Rihanna stans need to stop, she's only been big for 6 years.

Yeah that's amazing but I don't know what you're trying to say ?

All i was saying if Rihanna keeps being this consistent, she will become the biggest female music act of our time. I believe she has the power to do so - Did I say something wrong ?

She didn't blowup until Umbrella.

Isn't the thread about female artists with 10 years careers?

The navy is the most delusional stan base ever, I swear. Why did Rih's first two albums flop, why did it take her 8yrs to gross 100+ mill, all she has to cling to are .99 cent jingles. Again, Bey has only 4 albums, but has sold over 30 mill with just 4 albums. Rih has had to double that amount of albums to out sell Bey's 4 albums, that is a fail and still hasn't out grossed her tour wise. You can't call your fav the queen of anything when it took her 8 freaking years to gross 100+ mil and 7 albums to compete with the other pop girls who release every 3yrs. The only correct answer to the thread is Bey, Pink and Taylor in 3rd place, I'm sorry the navy is taking this so hard.

thank you.

I keep repeating that and it's like no one's paying attention. Smh.

Yet Pon de Replay went double platinum and peaked at #2 on the Hot 100 behind the song of that decade, We Belong Together, and SOS reached #1 (and the album A Girl Like Me sold 1.3M in the US).

I didn't say she didn't have hits. What I SAID was her big, I'VE ARRIVED, iconic-level moment came in 2007 with Umbrella. There's a difference.

THIS. I mean really.

A Girl Like Me was no flop. It had 3 top 10 hits, including the 3-week #1 hit SOS, went on to sell 1.3 million in the US and 4 million worldwide. P.S. singles sell for $1.29. Also, no one is trying to take anything from Bey because she's obviously an icon in her own right, but her singles have been outperformed by the other girls, her album has been outsold by the other girls, and her touring was the only thing she had over some of the other girls, but even then P!nk and Lady Gaga are still bigger touring acts.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL...why'd you use Gaga as an example in the OP tho ?

nnnnnn I just cant... I won't ...

And MESS at people bringing up 4 as if it was some MAJOR BioLotus (i love those albums though) kind of flop - 4 had moderate success, you girls are trying too hard.
Rihanna is pretty good, but she hasn't been in the game as long as Bey has, so let's not compare them yet please.

Also sis, I love that you are spreading the Sirusho pic and agreeing about Bey's success, but you better not come for P!nk and calling her a B-list is just crazy

As an example of a rapid rise and notable decline. I see what you mean though. She hasn't been around either.

I get it.

Nope.

Beyonce didn't gross 100 million until 11-12 years into her career though...
