1. I mentioned Gaga because she was mentioned in the article, and I thought I would continue my thoughts !
2. And? Ciara stayed at number one for 7 weeks with Goodies, Christina Aguilera had three number one singles on the US Hot 100 from the one album. Ashanti stayed at number one for 10 weeks with Foolish. Brandy stayed at number one for thirteen weeks on the US Hot 100 with The Boy Is Mine, aswell as further number ones, before her popularity dropped. Your point on Ke$ha is irrelevant.
3. Same point as above.
4. You make no sense after you're last two comments. Her popularity has fell, that's a given. But even the best of artists fail to make an impact after their success. Only a small number of the biggest artists of the times continue their success a.k.a Madonna and Britney Spears.
5. I meant don't bring in today's facts when you don't know what'll happen in the future, which you can't predict.

What the hell are you rambling about now

You want me banned don't you?

But the fact that Rihanna was able to tie her in half the career span as Beyonce proves how much her popularity has grown and how much it will continue to grow. I suggest Beyonce doesn't take the Christina length break.

Why are you laughing at vocal talent?

Uh, let's just look at Rihanna's last album. It stayed in the top 50 for longer simply because albums aren't selling, so it's easy to stay in the top 50 with horribly low sales. Doesn't change the fact that Rated R still hasn't sold 1 million in the US and has only sold around 1.8 million world wide.

That's definitely true, but lets remember Rihanna became huge when the digital era was exploding and Billboard changed their format. Britney, Beyonce, Christina and several Pop stars from the early 00s would've had higher charted singles if they had the benefit of the digital sales playing a large role in the formula of the Hot 100 chart.

Honey, im talking full albums not a damn single.... And Beyonce has spent 37 weeks at #1 in the Hot 100 so there is nothing to argue about singles because you have no chance.

Dont worry, that happens daily in SYG

Why you edit yo post?

Its sold over 2.5 mill WW.

The has-been Aguilera sold more albums than all of them combined. That's what I call an ownage. Ouch.

COME ON! I KNOW RIHANNA ISNT THE BEST ****ING SINGER, but listen to Music of the Sun her voice is not as whiny, high, and young. It HAS matured, and she sings better live now. You CANT argue with that.

Rated R is about 18k copies away from officially selling 1 million in the US and' she's sold nearly 3 Million copies of Rated R worldwide so SIT.

So did Blackout...with a decimal percentage of the promo that Rihanna did for Rated R mindyou, yet people called Blackout a flop.

Someone tell me the Rihanna fans arent being serious with the **** they're saying They sound almost as delusional as the Ciara ones

Rated R isnt done selling yet.
