Discussion: Ariana has no global solo singles. Why?

Rainsford

She only has one global single that is Problem, but it is a collab.

Share your thoughts.

Because she's only released 2 solo singles -- one during an era where she wasn't known globally, and the other as a 5th single?

& considering Problem outperformed Fancy WW, it's not like Iggy made that song a global hit.

Come on, you know damn well that she'll have one soon

She has 0 now, so...

One Last Time was actually the second most succesful song of the My Everything era in Europe and did very well worldwide speaking so i don't know your point.

I consider 'Break Free' a solo single, but then again it wasn't a WW smash. And let's not act like 'Problem' wouldn't have smashed if it was solo.

I'm pretty sure she's just getting started, give the girl some time.

Truffle.

Wait ... how are you determining the globalness of a song. Bang Bang has sold over 2M WW

Almighty Gaga

She needs others to sell. She, by herself, is not interesting enough. The same reason why she can't sell albums.

As if Zedd was the reason Break Free was succesful. Do you ever say 'i'm going to listen to Break Free by Ariana Grande featuring Zedd?'

M A R C

I thought she did, since people on here were saying she's replaced Rihanna.

"Break Free" was pretty global and yes technically it features Zedd but he's a DJ, he doesn't sing on it or anything. You damn well know it would have been just as successful without the "(feat. Zedd)" on it.

It's not like everyone goes "Oh 'We Found Love' that Rihanna & Calvin Harris smash duet!".

xox

- JED -

I say Break Free. Yeah I know it has the "feat. Zedd" tag but I couldn't hear Anton's vocals on the song so...

She will with Focus On Me

Oh wow this tea.

These could have become hits too since you said Iggy wasn't the reason for Problem's success. So why didn't them?

Then again, no one says 'I'm going to listen to One Last Time by Ariana Grande'

Zedd is global. Rihanna is global. Calvin Harris is global.
