Just because you're misinformed doesn't mean everybody else is. Talk That Talk was huge in the UK and is one of Rihs three million-selling albums here.
I like Rihanna, too but I'don't know what a single comes from which album and I know almost everything about music.
And I think we see a pattern here, some years ago she had 3 or 4 hit singles per album, last album it was two singles. Next year only one?
Germany is the third biggest music market in the world, the UK is fourth.

TTT had her biggest hit ever but it's album sales are mediocre, just another Rihanna release.

They are about the same, some year it's Germany, some year it's the UK.
As Siouxsie Sioux learned before her, a bit of a pop-dance beat can make a dark song particularly special. It’s that beat, coming in on the first chorus and lingering throughout the rest of the song, that encapsulates Lorde’s bridging of modern and retro. In some ways, it makes it her most contemporary/mainstream song yet, with the little tweaks and electro flourishes sitting well amongst the electronic dominance of the current top 40. In other ways, it would sound perfectly at home somewhere between Siouxsie and the Banshees and Xmal Deutschland, hiding its catchiness in low-toned vocals and a vague air of menace and blood. I need to find where I put my stompy boots- I have a feeling I could pull them off as going-out-wear now.
the thing about Rihanna constantly releasing was that most ppl did not know what came from what
i've come across so many ppl who think one song was on another album which is understandable
The fact her eras are defined by which ratty wig she pulled on to her head or which man she climbed out from under.

I want to point out that the beats are a remniscence on Einstürzende Neubauten - Redukt and Dimitri Schostakowics 11th Symphonie.
But it's nice that they draw a line from her to Siouxie and X-Mal Deutschland.
iHype still think PRISM won't be 2x Platinun by the end of the era?
Keep in mind we haven't even reached a year since its release and it's already at 1.5M+.

there is nothing keeping the alberm afloat and no single could generate an extra 500k sales without a rerelease

Same with Katy.
Just by watching her videos alone you'd be able to tell which singles come from which album
And there is no pattern.
Loud - 3 hits (5 if you include Who's That Chick and Love The Way You Lie)
Talk That Talk - 1 hit
Unapologetic - 2 hits.
The amount of hits she'll get next album is anyone's guess, but I'm thinking since the public have missed her she'll get more than she did with Unapologetic.
