Rihanna has sold over 10 million albums in the US since like 6 months. And only GGGB can do it imo. Loud, her second-biggest era, couldn't do it, so I don't see why anything else she'll release will. Who knows though..
I mean going double platinum in this day and age is difficult so if she never gets there I won't be mad album sales are truly pathetic especially in the US.
This is debatable, with the US being the biggest music industry a Diamond album in the us > a 5x platinum album WW
There's no such thing as 'platinum WW' but I get what you mean.
Anyway, as long as she goes Platinum in the US and sells another 2/3 millio copies WW I don't see the problem.
It's not, for Rih Europe is her most important market.
Most of her tour gross, album sales and single sales come from there so.
We're grateful the US gives her all those #1's tho.
"For Rih" was the operative words.
Because for global stars, impacting the biggest Music market is their top priorities. Y'all always stumble over y'all "global" shade of other artists, when Rihanna is discussed, because y'all know the UK is not even the second most important music market in the ENTIRE world, lmao

That doesn't explain LOUD (which was a massive era) Rated R, or Talk that Talk
Well as long as she sells more than most of her peers WW it doesn't really matter. #PerksofbeingGlobal
Well, she doesn't sell more than most of her peers WW. Beyonce passed the 3 million mark like 2 weeks ago (?) and is on track to sell more than Unapologetic's 3.5 million. RED and TTAL outsold it too. The only peer of hers that she (and the rest of the world) outsold was Gaga. Unless you consider Nelly Furtado Rihanna's peer. (Don't bring up Britney please, she stopped putting any effort into her career like 4 years ago, so she really doesn't count).

Neither do I, Rihanna performs better with her singles & theres nothing wrong about that as long as her albums are going platinum
