I am not here for GGGB:R.

Good Girl Gone Bad was not even a seller before the re-release. It had Umbrella, Hate That I Love You, SUAD AND DSTM AND even some of TAB, and only sold 1.1 million a year later, the week before its re-release. Loud has already soared past that total, only 6 months in. In another 6 months, it could almost be at 2 million.

Loud has now sold (well almost) more than A Girl Like Me, which I consider Rihanna's most successful in the US. It also has her best first week sales.

Without the re-release, GGGB would NOT be Rihanna's most successful. AGLM sold 1.3 mill basically off of Unfaithful and SOS.

With only 4k till Loud soars past AGLM's total in the US (which its already probably done in these past two days), LOUD becomes Rihanna's best selling in the US.

If it continues as it is, I expect it to be around 1.5 mill by the next single (either Cheers or re-release single). If they release Cheers before, I think it could go to 2x Platinum and have the re-release push it to 3x Platinum.

Congrats to Loud

If you follow it based off of albums without any re-release it goes like this:
LOUD
A Girl Like Me
Good Girl Gone Bad
Rated R
Music of the Sun.

GGGB has sold 2.6 Mil in the U.S. so best seller still but Loud will continue to do just fine at this rate!

I still want her to release Cheers this Era !!

Too bad Soundscan is.

Oh girl. Stop reaching.

!

You guys are not understanding.

Good Girl Gone Bad reloaded sold like a new album.

Good Girl Gone Bad had the same amount of singles as Loud and AGLM and Rated R before its re-release.

So based off of that is what I mean.

Right.

Who he finna try? This **** ain't gon cut it , especially when a lot of Rihanna fans claim that GGGB is 3x platinum

But really - how is this news?

What is this mess. Whether you like it or not GGGB is her best selling album, because the re-release counts. Who knows what could have happened if they wouldn't have put out the re-release. It still would have sold because I doubt they would have ended the era after DSTM.

well you never know if people were still buying the original GGGB but still, LOVE IT, Love Queen Ri Ri

She doesn't have an album that sold 2 million in the US yet?

!!!

Oh.....

very good album.

GGGB does count, but Loud is still more successful.

If its re-released, it will obviously top GGGB.
