I guess as far as numbers go, Rih. But Janet is still more of an icon in music and a legend.
Rihanna has much more influence on modern pop. She's more well known by the modern generation. Radio plays her more. She sells more. She has higher streams. She's got more twitter followers. She's in the media far more
That's not to say Rihanna won't get there eventually... She's already an Icon, I'm sure Legend status wouldn't escape her
Incorrect, Rihanna has officially joined the Legends club alongside other huge artists like Legend X, Briteny, Madonna, and Mariah. She's among her peers now. People who make music on her level

Basically, this. Rihanna has bigger numbers than alot of people (Janet, Beyonce, Barbra Streisand, Britney, Whitney, Xtina ) but she just does not feel as iconic or legendary as those people.
album sales comparison? "record sales" is the biggest junk ever, i don't see how people can lump singles and albums together without some TEA conversion factor to make the units equivalent. Not siding with either just curious

Probably because we're currently living in the time period where she's popular. Plus we have the internet which allows fans to feel closer to the artists, while also taking away that mysterious aura which used to surround celebrities.

It's the most effective way to look at his stuff since we see overall performance
