19 Rihanna - Where Have You Been

How come this is almost out of Top 20 with 160 million of airplay? I don't get it.

It has 116 million , that numbers are inflated. And there are a lot new releases/new songs in top20 right now.

It is so surprising that it has comparable sales to moderate hits(you and i or I Wanna Go) but has double their radio AI

I Wanna Go : 101M
You & I : I don't remember, 65M ?

So that's not that different.

why is everyone so surprised about WHYB though???

I've noticed that a lot of riri songs that have high AI aren't that big sellers...like I said before, if radio wasn't weighed so much, her single chart runs would be so much worse

that's why she is the best digital seller of all time

109 Katy Perry One of the Boys
126 Nicki Minaj Pink Friday ... Roman Reloaded (Deluxe Edition)

That's interesting...

Anyways

11 Katy Perry Teenage Dream - The Complete Confection

Although that may seem like a big drop, you have to consider all the new albums out and the albums that ate charting below it.

18 Maroon 5 Overexposed (Deluxe Edition)
20 ADELE 21
21 Chris Brown Fortune (Deluxe Version)
22 Linkin Park LIVING THINGS
24 Justin Bieber Believe (Deluxe Edition)

Considering TD:CC is above all of them, that means It's actually having good longevity. Really good.

But she is the biggest digital artist because she is releasing music constanly since 2005, not because she has a big digital power. Example:

Rihanna - 6 albums - 47,571,000 units sold in the US (Singles)

Katy Perry - 2 albums - 37,620,000 units sold in the US (Singles)

1st : Go to SYG.

2nd : Rihanna released even before digital explosion.

3rd : So? Rihanna still sold more than everyone else. Deal with it.

1. I don't know what is SYG.

2. Yes, Rihana is the best selling digital artist of all time, but is because she have released a lot of music, not because she has digital power.

I wasn't trying to make it a stan war

I was just pointing out that her biggest solo radio hits don't necessarily sell that well (sans WFL)

But its whatever

You can't put Rihanna and Katy in the same sentence and expect their stans not to react. This thread has become so predictable.

Rihanna is 7 years into her career, so of course it's gonna be harder to sell massive amounts at that point. But her digital power is still significant.

This post was on-point and exactly what needed to be said. Why did it get a warning?

Rihanna had digital power during the GGGB era.

She was one of the few, if not only artist who could score multiple 3X plat singles, which was huge back then.

Just like Rihanna, Katy will not keep her digital power forever, in fact it is already starting to wear out.
