First of all, it had four singles. Crazy In Love, Naughty Girl, Me Myself & I and Baby Boy.
Secondly, it was her first solo album. Look at Nicole Scherzinger. It's a risk to do that and if that isn't success I don't know what success is.
Thirdly, it's R&B. She didn't sell out. She didn't claim it's another genre. R&B is an urban genre and it isn't easy to sell out.
Fourthly, your receipts are wrong, babe.
It went platinum in 9 countries, in the US being 4x plat + UK and Australia 3x plat.
Don't even try it! |

Must be pretty embarrassing that the global, icon, Black Madonna only has never outsold DIL's album sales yet you wanna talk about Beyonce's album sales
With 14 #1's or however she has... yet she struggles. |
Nice so GGGB was bigger than beys peak. And it was her only era to last over a year.
Loud did almost as much as IASF and had the hits to match the sales. Plus in declining sales market. (Also it crossed 6m on mediatraffic and has sold way more since.
So while bey only had two other eras to outsells 3m. (ST and Bday) Rih had 4.
