Yes all of this is true but we're comparing their respective declines, not their "flop" albums. If we take everything on both sides into consideration it looks something like this.
Albums:
Gaga - 6 million ---> 2 million (first week: 1,108,000 ---> 258,000)
Kesha - 2.5 million ---> 500k (first week: 152,000 ---> 85,000)
Singles:
Gaga - 4 top 10's (including a #1 and a top 3) ---> 2 top 10's (one of which only charted for like 3 weeks)
Kesha - 4 top 10's (including a #1) not counting the rerelease ---> 1 top 10 single (#2)
Touring:
Gaga - $229 million ---> $80 million
Kesha - she was never a successful touring artist
It could go either way I guess but I feel like Gaga's was more dramatic.
