And you're comparing the gross of a worldwide stadium tour to the gross of a North American arena tour.
ANTI era also has:
- Rihanna's 27th & 29th top 10s, breaking a tie with Stevie Wonder, Janet, Mariah & tying MJ
- Her 14th #1, breaking a tie with MJ
- #9 week #1, breaking a tie with The Beatles for most cumulative weeks at #1
- Most streamed songs ever by a female on US Spotify (Work, Needed Me)
- Largest spins & audience in US Urban radio history (Work)
- Most weeks T10 for a non-top 5 single
- Biggest jump to #1 on BB 200 this decade
- Most weeks T10 for a female album this year
- Two #1s on Urban & Rhythmic radio (both went T10 on overall US radio with 100M+ AI).

Who's got the WW Stadium tour and who has the North American arena? Last I checked both have toured Europe and North America in Stadiums; one of them just didn't sell out
All those "achievements" are cool, but you miss the point:
Album Sales
Lemonade >>> Anti
Album Streams
Anti >>> Lemonade [Only on Tidal to stream]
Singles Sales
Anti > Lemonade [Formation still the highest first week sales for a female's single]
Media Coverage
Lemonade > Anti
Acclaim
Lemonade >> Anti
Touring
Lemonade >>>>>>> Anti
They're both extremely successful & they should be appreciated as the baddest bitches in the game
