y'all so hypocrite

I bet she'll end up with good numbers...

We know it was certified platinum. All that means is that the purchase occurred in the United States

The downloads occurred globally, that is a fact. Please accept it and reevaluate your understanding of the situation.

So you are telling me BBHMM didn't perform good? You are not a monster, you follow urban charts and you should know better.
Nobody is saying ANTI is doing exceptional, does the fact we are satisfied about it makes you blind or something?
The Travis/Kanye thing makes no sense cause we fans complained and offended her for months, we are not stupid.

Btw leaving this, cause it leads nowhere.

Hmmmm but it is true, am I correct? She is indeed the fastest black woman of all time to do so? **** whatever you're talking about.


Two facts here: She is the fastest, setting a record. And you're mad.

And this is the ONLY thing that matters. Not charts, not sales, not hits, not flops. MUSIC.

I'm legit confused.

So, Rihanna sold 460 copies through Tidal on Wednesday and Thursday, separate from 1 million Samsung-sponsored copies that were given away for free, and we won't know the full sales week until Sunday when iTunes is counted? Where were the 400k numbers coming from?

Mmmm it's not a fact but okay lol. Loads of people were complaining they couldn't access the "link" outside the U.S... but okay. Even then she is platinum with one million sold/downloaded, free album or not.

album artist!

Wow a platinum album, acclaim, and a possible #1 debut? Only the queen

There is no fact

When 25 broke records, stated.
Self-title broke records, it was stated.
1989 broke records, it was stated.

All you have to show for is a fan-made report.

I'm pretty sure RIAA would have stated this "record" along with the bought certification, wasn't the case now was it? It doesn't exist.

You're calling out the Navy but you do realize we are not the ones bothered or starting a fight about it? There are easily stanbases in here (two in particular) that came in here to try to shade and discredit her.... but slay at selective reading

No one is contesting the album's platinum status.

All I'm saying is that it's disingenuous to state that 1m people downloaded ANTI in the US prior to its release.

I forgot that she didn't have any physical sales. This is actually pretty good

Ironically it's been RIAA's pinned tweet for days.. the ones that reported her platinum status (???)

Someone show me where it says the 460 is from a few minute leak. Also when we all seen ANTi on Tidal at first, it was on sale at 5.99.
