Loud 243K, for a total of 953k in 3 weeks, so crazy I can't, the best selling Rihanna's album so far! I can't take this

Lady GaGa - The Fame (Monster) 5
Interscope - 61.000

Gaga's back, 2 weeks away from best selling album of the year.

Omg Gaga is back

Isn't it past 12M now though?

Edit: and it's her 100th week.

What's the difference between The Fame Monster & Recovery?
Will Gaga make it?

After 3 weeks A Girl Like Me 455,000, Good Girl Gone Bad 632.000, Rated R 608.000, LOUD 949.000

Her best era so far

i predict 2 millions by the end of January (conservative prediction, could be more). With S&M and Cheers, and if Fading does well, I can see 4-5 millions without a re-release. If the re-release has smashes, I can see it reaching GGGB era sales

Rihanna is at 943K worldwide already in her third week. And people will still hate on her sales.

100 weeks

Not bad for a singles artist that can't sell albums

It should be 585k, but for some reason they decided to use the first week of this year as the last week of last years chart, so that brings the difference down to 108k.

I think she'll make it anyway though

Eminem 75K
Gaga 61K

The difference has gotten smaller and smaller.

But we'll have to wait and see.

Yeah. but she can't afford to just drop off again

But I thought it didn't matter that she dropped of when it comes to albums (unlike singles). That's what Duca was saying. So last week even though she didn't chart, she may have sold like 50K and those would count...

The correct number for Rihsus is 949k

1st week - 406k
2nd week - 300k
3rd week - 243k

Total - 949k

I can definitely see LOUD selling +2M worldwide by the end of the year...

This week 77K in the US + 66K in the UK = 143K ..... that leaves us with 100K sold outta there...
Previous week, 142K in the US + 68K in the UK = 210K ...... that leaves 90K sold outta there....
First week, 206K in the US + 92K in the UK = 298K...... that leaves 108K sold outtta there.....

From the 949K sold:

· 425K in the US (44,8%)
· 226K in the UK (23,8%)
· 298K outside those two markets (31,4%)

that's > 1 mil in 3 weeks, even though it's Christmas sales, it would be very tough, she would have to sell about 333K per week... I don't see that. I see 1.5 million+ by year end and 2 million by end of January before the next singles start to smash

Why so?

RATED R'S PERFORMANCE:

Week 49: 293.000 (DEBUT)
Week 50: 161.000 (-45%)
Week 51: 154.000 (-5%)
Week 52: 196.000 (+27%)
Week 1 (2010): 209.000 (+7%)

LOUD'S PERFORMANCE:

Week 48: 406.000 (DEBUT)
Week 49: 300.000 (-26%)
Week 50: 243.000 (-19%)

Week 51: 231.000 (-5%)
Week 52: 293.000 (+27%)
Week 1 (2010): 314.000 (+7%)

Even if she does the same performance (which clearly wont... You can see the line is not the same as Rated R) LOUD would be at 1.787.000..... so.... I think it pretty much can pass those 2 Millions.

2 million yb the end of the year? it sounds so escapist. I mean its already december and it hasnt passed the million mark yet. I'd be glad with 1.5 Million by the end of the year.
