PRISM has sold 3,126,000 WW & 1,448,000 in the United States, she also had 2 6x Platinum #1 hits to support the album and has only moved half of what her previous album sold. With that being said, do you think that the success of the album is inflated?
And why have albums that have sold just as much as PRISM been deemed as "flops"?
Stay pressed that your fave doesn't have anywhere near Katy's success. Katy has achieved loads in her career and with PRISM. People expect too much from Katy, people expect her to have every single go #1 and all of her albums go diamond or something - otherwise she's a "flop". No matter how well Katy does, people will always expect more from her.
Yes, the only big things about this era have been 'Roar' and 'Dark Horse'. The album has underperformed and the other singles have flopped. In addition, Katy is at her peak but couldn't top the Forbes list like her contemporaries have during their peaks. In comparison to her last era, PRISM is a huge decline.

The same thing can be said for the people who attacked Lady Gaga for ARTPOP.
No PRISM is the biggest female album of 2013 and 2014 so far. And what albums that sold over 3M are deemed as flops? BEYONCE? Unapologetic? Or which ones?
The same thing can be said for the people who attacked Lady Gaga for ARTPOP.
ARTPOP underperformed compared to her past eras, though. It didn't sell as many albums and didn't have a big hit. All of Katy's eras have have been successful and have had hits.
