So many iconic albums. I'm gonna assume one of them went top 500 with a discount and secured her the superbowl spot instead of Madonna.

Rihlord should have waited a couple of weeks to release 45S in the UK.

@ you ***** gassing up NLX... "oh nie! The drag!!", "Destroyed!!"

All he did was answer like most stans do. Turning every positive into a negative.

She's more famous ==> her music is overshadowed
She has more money ==> she's not hot, is married to camel or w/e he wrote
She tours better ==> Rihanna is young...blah..blah

Like... These are elementary tactics. If ya'll think that was a scalp, you better hope Rihanna don't flop.

Anyway, I see no reason to reply directly. All that could be extracted from his post is that being more known, more financially successful, a bigger draw, having a more successful brand, being a prominent socio-political talking point, critically lauded, and selling whole bodies of work consistently means nothing because "single succes!!11"

If that's the Navy logic, I'll leave ya'll to it to see how it works out in the end.

Rihanna's sales are nothing special, she has 7 albums

Katy will easily reach her in the US and Japan



Gaga had a big peak and that's it, her average will go down with each album

Katy will pass her in the UK and US too lmao

More successful than everything from BÉYST

Combined

bbbut katy has classics whereas the other two don't

You can't build a legacy on singles. God knows people only remember a handful of Mariah's.
But unlike Rih, Mariah is (was) a phenomenal, classic talent.

But keep overemphasizing the value of singles. We saw how much good that did for Pharrell, Iggy, and Robin Thicke.

WOW @ the Hive excuses when they were laughing because 45S was "flopping"

Where did RTW, DIL, XO, Partition, 7/11 peaked on iTunes???

Rihlord has sold more albums and singles than the Beyst

Rihanna has NOT sold more album than the Quéen, ATRL needs to stop with this one.

Ceremonials > Lungs.

ok girl

It's cute how the Katty stans think she has/will have some kind of "impacT" or legacy..



I mean, just look as someone like Nelly

rihallah and beysus each have their own lanes. rih can make a hit and bey can generally sell an album (without relying on singles) and create hype. the important thing is that they both have grammys and albums with a +61 metascore

Nice. It's watched by billions of people. What does it matter if it doesn't do anything for their albums/singles?

The Superbowl brought every Beyonce album in the top 100 of iTunes & all the songs performed were in the top 100; most in the top 50. It gave her a gigantic sales boost. Girls Aloud & Spice Girls didn't get such an effect as far as I know.

Fall Out Boy's new album
They never disappoint

if you mean legend furtado then she has impact and classiques. poor the other one.

To be fair, you can't rely on albums to leave a legacy either (See: Gaga).
