No, DWUW and G.U.Y flopped too badly

DWUW is platinum and it didn't get a video.

Like we already explained everyone her peers were selling 5m and above she was selling 3m

Gaga's peers were selling 3m and she sold 2m

So years later when everyone will start selling 2m, ARTPOP won't be a flop anymore ???

Yes, you just have to get through the lashings right now, like the Navy did in '09.

[H-I-M]

Lolilol beyonce only sold 3M she's a flop

Lolilol since when is selling 3M flopping ?

And what are those 4 WW top10s some mentioned ? Only RR and RB did decently.

[idkher]

No she cannot. People weren't embarrassed to like Rihanna in 2010 during Rated R. Gaga on the other hand..

ARTPOP is at 1.8m, which means she sold less than double comparing to her peers

It did sell 2m the sales are not updated even if it didn't that's doesn't change the fact that RR undeperfomed and she was selling far less than her peers

[IBeMe]

Rated R was criticly acclaimed though. but i get what u mean. I think she can pull a Loud but i need to be honest.
she needs to tone her body a bit more, and be ok with singing a bit more generic fun tracks and have a colorful imagery

Russian Roulette, Hard, Rude Boy and Te Amo were all hits

Also RB sold 2.9 million in the US please stop making it sound like it only sold 2 million! Thanks!

We went through lashings when BTW sold 6+M WW, it's hard being a monster.

What's that have to do with anything? Again you are doing the most.

Doesn't the Navy call Beyoncé's 4 a flop ("4lop") because of the drop from IASF ? It's the same.

Does that album even have a top 10 single tho? Maybe that's why.

Hopefully, I miss her
But mess @ u saying RR was an immense flop when Rude Boy was a 5 week #1 that blocked Telephone. An underperformance sounds more accurate.

That's pretty bad for a main pop girl in 2009.

And that overly played on the radio #1 single is only 2x platinum. Nothing to brag about.

4 was not a flop but it did not have any hits unlike Rated R...

[HumanitySector]

Also during Rated R era Rihanna had a collaboration with Eminem and spawned one of the biggest hits of the decade. Gaga on the other hand has a collaboration with an old jazz singer. So go figure

[leon86]

Guys seriously, G.U.Y is the biggest pop girl flop ever. she wont be able to come back from that

[Αnt]

Can't wait for Gaga's comeback.

Yet Telephone ended up being the bigger hit so...

That wasn't what the navy said before December 2013 and I'm sure everyone was calling RR a flop when it was released.
