Rihanna isn't always an "album" artist. I mean, her albums never sold very well. I think this is her best selling album (in a period of time). Worldwide, Rihanna's a power seller ever since Umbrella. And hello, Hate That I Love You just started to pick up. It'll go up. Don't worry.

^^ ![eek](http://www.atrl.net/forums/images/smilies/images/smilies/eek.gif) that is a lot of info there ...
but honesly why would i want an album from someone that throws albums like they are singles... an album IMO is worth more when u wait for a couple of years for another album not 3 days... after a single flops

It's an odd situation with Rihanna. Umbrella was a 7 weeks number one, with that you can sell 2 million copies, ask Beyoncé about it. But people is just not interested in her albums, maybe because they know they are mediocre at best, so they buy the single. But, singles is the least important you can sell, since they are way cheaper than albums. Also, if you sell albums you get superstar status, and Rihanna is just a single trend, every summer she releases a danceable/eurotrash song and that's it.

Because not that many people buy cds in general anymore. With the high tech digital world we live in that has software like LimeWire, Ares, and sites that leak songs, it's much easier for a lot ppl to check out a few songs or an entire album for free within a click of a mouse button.

You are wrong, only look the sales of Justin or nelly furtado. The people buy an album when it is good.

She hasnt found her audience yet. She always changes up her style with every single. From reggae to 80s pop to R&B ballad to whatever the hell Umbrella was then a rock song then a dance pop song...they dont know what to make of her. Thats the only thing i can come up with lol
her cd isnt doing that badly though...but it should be doing better

Not true imo it does not take a rocket scientist to see that cd sales have changed drastically. Yeah justin and nelly sold well and i have both of their cds but people dont buy cds like they used to
I have only bought several cd in the last year or so
Nelly
Justin
christina
Augustuna
damian rice are the only ones comes to my mind right now

to answer the thread question: she doesn't sell because she has a bad management team. when they see a flop they say "oh my god new album time". When "IILTYW" flopped they threw her back in the studio to make an album with only 3 or 4 possible singles, then the other 10 be fillers. Then when "We Ride" flopped they threw her back in the studio again, but "GGGB" really has no fillers, IMO. Maybe "Say It", but that's it.
to answer the whole digital thing: IT'S NOT TRUE. If you have a strong fanbase your album will sell. If you have a weak fanbase then your single will succeed and your album will not, which is majority of music now.
Only people like Justin, Christina, and Britney can still sell albums today because they've held on to their fanbase for the near decade, but all the new artists are just slipping away.

She sold 2 million singles and 1.5 million albums in the U.S. with her last effort. They were ****, yes. And they were also called flop, but, the flop was outside.

That's true. This new generation of aritsts is unable to build a strong fanbase, because none of them has the wow factor and none of them is bringing something to the music scene that hasn't been done before. I think Kelly Clarkson is the last artist that was able to do that. I mean there are lots of Beyonce, Justin & Britney wannabes ,but where are the originals in the pop scene? I can see a new artist inspired by an original one ,but you have to bring your own package with it.

What sucks is that the first 2 albums were terrible, but this new one is great and actually deserves a lot more success.
