Rihanna’s fifth album, Loud is her second number one – her first, Good Girl Gone Bad, spent a week at the summit in 2007. Sales of 76,237 copies last week lift its career tally to 839,608, putting it well ahead of immediate predecessor, 2009’s Rated R, which reached number nine and has thus far sold 602,408 copies.
Good Girl Gone Bad is by far her most successful album, with sales to date of 1,692,928, while her 2005 debut Music Of The Sun (number 35) has sold 142,792 copies, and 2006 follow-up A Girl Like Me (number five) has sold 587,308 copies.

SO:
1) Music Of The Sun (#35) - 142,792 (Gold)
2) A Girl Like Me (#5) - 587,308 (Platinum) -Soon to be 2xPlatinum (It sold around 10K this year)-
3) Good Girl Gone Bad (#1) - 1,692,928 (5xPlatinum) -Will be 6xPlatinum with time for sure. (It sold +70K this year)-
4) Rated R (#9) - 602,408 (2xPlatinum) -It will go to the 700K, I'd say-
5) Loud (#1) - 839,608 (2xPlatinum) -This can go as far as GGGB, or even further, soon to be 3xPlatinum-
TOTAL: 3,865,044 albums sold in the UK
