what does that make "B'DET" which sold 200k less than any of Rih's last 2 albums DESPITE selling much more in the US and much more during it's first week ?

I mean isn't it embarrassing ?

If no one cares about Rihanna then no one gives a rat's ass about Jay-Z's B'DET


BeyHive ... SMH

I don't know what kinda breakdown this is, but B'Day sold 6.5 million worldwide and over 3 million in the US.

I feel like we replay the same scene every release week for Taylor. Next month there will be no one on ATRL talking about her in anyway, not even negatively, she just literally gets forgotten like P!nk no matter how she is selling.

At least She'll still be selling next month. Other fanbases have to live with one-week wonder eras at best.

i assume you are excluding Bey and Gaga?

Because her fans keep to themselves and enjoy her music in between releases. She's had the most active base for a long time now.

She has very few actual fans here, most of them are bandwagon bitches or receipt followers. Her actual fans are young, white girls and the majority are likely in middle/high school and don't use forums.

I would certainly hope so after 45 hit songs and being all over the damn place 24/7. One would certainly HOPE she would be able to scrape Platinum after massive amounts of time

That's still a no on the 250k first week though right?

Why is so much importance put on US sales anyway, like LOUD sold 300,000 in its fifth week in the UK
Anyway, call me when Fist gets his next platinum album, I mean he has to, considering he had the song of the summer?

But yeah basically
US > Elsewhere.

It's a good thing Beyonce averaged 75k a week in 2014.

True!

[Teezy]

The fact that Rih has to rely on Kanye, Jay, or Eminem for almost all of her Grammys

While Taylor just swoops in and snatches hers effortlessly, including Album of the Year. I guess real talent always wins in the end!

[Nialler]

Taylor has an army of loyal white girls but the GP couldn't care less about her. She appeals to very narrow demographics just like 1D and Bieber. She's bigger than them though because she managed to keep her fanbase interested.

Because as was just stated, the US is the biggest/most relevant/only market that really matters. Even UK sales/fame is nothing in comparison to US. And also because The US is where she has all of those #1's that yall swear are so important so one would only assume with ALL those hits here, she would be able to do so no?

I'll call you when Rihanna passes 250k first week. I mean for someone who is so big, Queen, artist of their generation etc. it really can't be much of a feat to crack first week numbers that EVERYONE, including flop Chris, has been able to achieve.

Chris already has Platinum albums. He has achieved that already. We are waiting for Rihanna to achieve 250k+ first week already.
