Beyoncé's critically acclaimed self titled album sold 8k last week so it's safe to assume sales are done. Her album has sold 3.3 million copies WW. Can ICON Rihanna beat those numbers with her global presence or will Beyoncé's sales remain the victor?

EDIT: I'm on mobile. bohr is both and Cheist is Christ.

I can see her doing the same numbers but not considerably much

#R8.

And more outside the US

Not sure about total sales. But I think R8 will sell more than 1,3M outside the US.

Legend>>> Icon. I think Beyonce will sell more. Let's not pretend Rihanna moves albums.

These threads usually backfire. I think she'll do around the same, didn't UA do only around 3.5M with Diamonds AND Stay. She should be doing more than that, imo.

But anyways, voted for the "Tight Skirt" chanteuse

nope

#R8 could sell 10M and it still will never match BEYONCE's impact.

8k seriously?

Rihanna will do better with R8 and her Soundtrack Album " Home " That means she is coming for +20m sales with two album in 2014 and 2015

#NaviOrDie

If she has hits she sell around the same, if not 500k~1m

I think #R8 will do more, around 4-4.5M since this is the longest break we got and I really think this could be the game changer for her album sales.

#R8 will sell 5 million worldwide! BOOKMARK ME!

what impact??

OH the reach, oh the delusional reach

But 5/7 Rihanna albums have sold more than BEYONCÉ even with its 17 videos. By you're logic Beyonce hasn't moved albums since 2009.

Talk when Rihanna has an album that makes World and Local News. Or push out 1 million tweets of it's release. But back to the topic at hand. Don't play dumb girls.

Well, we call it "Strategy" not "Impact"

It is crystal clear that Beyoncé cant sell singles so she treated everyone and dropped the album in one night with no promo so everyone was surprised and bought the album without seeing any song, video or something. All about #strategy

I think overall Rihanna will sell more. But first week sales, Beyonce will stay the victor.
