The ALBUM flopped but it isn't surprising considering the lack of promotion she did along with the mess she gave as performances for the album week of release. 1.7million worldwide is a flop for Britney, it would be acceptable for someone like Nicki though. The era as a whole wasn't a flop at all, she had successful singles, her songs and albums broke and continued her countless records, the tour was successful, amazing videos, Video Vanguard Award, TTWE being her most critically acclaimed single since Toxic, being the highest earning female of the year in her "flop era" is some achievement, etc...
