Who has the bigger global career overall? Janet Jackson or Beyoncé?

Some stats

Beyoncé's career album sales: 66 million albums sold from 1997 to 2015
Janet Jackson's career album sales: 68 million albums sold from 1982 to 2015

Beyoncé career album sales: 120 million singles sold
Janet Jackson's career album sales: 50 million singles sold

Beyoncé's career record sales: 210 million
Janet Jackson's record sales: 120 million

Theyre not inflated

ot: I vote Beyonce because she is much more global and her sales are better

Beyonce easily

both are local but obviously Janet.... She is a legend

Queen janet stays unbothered.

Beyonce didn't sell 60m albums and Janet sold nearly 80m, I don't get why are you deflating her sales and inflating Beyonce??

exactly.

Janet is so far ahead.

I love Beyoncé but without Janet there wouldn't be YouTube so Janet.

Janet hasnt sold anywhere near 80 million albums and

Beyoncé will outsell her with her next release. fun fact: She has already outsold Janet outside the states

Beyoncé.

She sold 75+ albums that's nearly 80m albums.


and lol @ the rest of your post.

Beyonce easily

loool. Janet has sold 70-75m albums worldwide. Which is twice as much as what Beyoncé sold.

Thats inflated as ****

Look at the all time best selling females list, Beyonce is like #10 #9 with 66-70 million. Beyoncé will surpass her easily and in less time.

Plus Beyoncé has sold more than any of her peers while Janet cant even come close to Madonna Mariah Whitney etc

Beyoncé, I don't know any Janet song (i may heard it but i couldn't name any of her songs while when I think Beyoncé I think Single Ladies, Crazy In Love, Love On Top...)

Janet Jackson has sold 26 million albums in US. You are telling me she has sold twice as much outside US? Are you even serious? Gaga, Madonna and Rihanna have only this ratio who are EXTREMELY global so let's not
At best Janet has sold 50M albums.

So Beyoncé has sold 30 million albums, got it.

last time I checked Gaga and Beyoncè are neck on neck. Also Alicia Keys has easily outsold Beyoncé, Avril Lavigne too.

Idk why the beehive is so sensitive when it comes to Beyoncé's all time rankings. She simply isn't that commercially outstanding.

Only bc Janet has sold half of what the top 5 best selling females of all times sold, doesn't make her a forgotten artist, bc Janet has always been the 6th best selling female until Enya and Britney surpassed her. But since Streisand did not have that much pop-cultural impact in comparison to Madonna, Whitney, Mariah and Céline, Janet took her space to round out what is generall perceived as the Legendary 5 female artists.

the only act who has the chance to transform the legendary 5 into the holy 6 is Adele.

Janet has sold 45m albums in the United States. educate yourself. RN should be diamond while Janet and Control should be 9xp.
