ANTI is an underperformance at the very least. The album should be selling better for an artist like Rihanna.

[hooky]

No, but it underperformed. She's never been an album seller anyway. She's only had 2 #1 albums.

It's actually doing better than it should at this point, considering the first three singles were flops and nearly killed the era before she dropped them from the album.

[Maki]

flop

[HASHTAGPOW]

yes

[ceremonials]

It turned out okay for the situation it was in.

[sunny boy]

it's an amazing success tbh.

You can't be serious... even if those "imaginary" singles were actually associated with ANTI, "45S" and "BBHMM" we're not flops.

ANTI will have at least 2 more Top 10 singles... ANTI is a success, imo.

See, the thing is people CHOOSE to stream a song.
No matter who tries to discredit streaming, this what MILLIONS of people use and prefer now.
Rihanna's name is #1 on both charts. #1=Success. End of.

not even close
but i bet ur all gonna wish ur faves could flop like rihanna their next eras

[Homebrand]

Seeing as Rih is perched at #1 8 weeks after Anti and 9 weeks after Work i dont think so

[Zhuge Liang]

Haters wish.

[Skywalker]

Obviously judging from the sales.

[Bounce]

Well imagine if Gaga, Beyonce, Katy, Taylor, etc.. albums sold 17k what do you think ATRL will call it?

[PhreshIn]

No.

[Tristan]

No, Work going #1 saved ANTI from flop status. Though I really can't imagine the lashings had Work not gone #1.

[Aurora]

if ANTI is a flop I hate to know what other girls' #1 albums whose lead singles don't hit #1 are called

[Bulldog]

It's platinum with a hit single no it's not a flop.

[Mermaid]

absolutely.

[sadnews]

single it hit, album is flop. just like people like flo rida.

[brndksk]

With Needed Me and Kiss It Better coming I think we can be optimistic about Anti's future.

It's streaming well, and bearing in mind it was given out for free, I think with a number one single and album and stadium tour the era overall can be considered a success.
