Did you really go there?
Yes she's a single artist and the BIGGEST single artist since Rihanna and that's nothing to be ashamed of since Queen is breaking records left and right. I mean in almost 3 months she's sold a bit over 6,800,000 Digital Sales (with Roar (1st Single ), Unconditionally (2nd Single), Dark Horse (3rd Single even though it was already at 900k when it wasn't even announced as a single
and "Walking On Air" which has sold around 190k. That's more singles than any other Female who has released this year with their entire era.
Now, since she's a single artist? Selling well with 4 songs in less than 3 months is pretty much unheard of if you're not named Taylor Swift. The consistency is nothing short than epic, that and PRISM being the 2ND ALBUM (RELEASED in 2013) from a FEMALE to sell over 1 Million Units this year, well last year but you know what I mean. Who else could sell ALBUMS and SINGLES of this magnitude when music sales are in the sh!tter, especially for female pop artists? Might not seem like a lot but the slight shade is pathetic when you're only sounding pressed.
Now, I didn't read the last 10 pages so I'm sure you'll be schooled but it's been a while since I went there.
not the best sales ever but everyone knows that January is the shittiest month for music sales out of the entire year
