It didn't even pass the 9M ever, I'm gonna stop replying to you.


DIL was the only album that sold on pair WW with Gaga albums sans ARTPOP tho.

I find it highly amusing you want to claim Beyoncé isn't global even a tiny bit. It's OK if you say she isn't as global as others (which isn't true) and it's even OK to say she's more successful in the United States than anywhere else. However, you're being very ignorant and delusional to dismiss Beyoncé's global success & power. You want to claim she's local, yet the highest selling song of all time in Spain (your home country) is song of hers & Alejandro Fernández. How can a ~local singer~ achieve a feat like that? Your logic just doesn't add up.

d. This reminds me of a certain alleged Brazilian claiming G0d is local meanwhile she has the longest reigning #1 sing in his country. Golden, sis, these girls are dense.

It's a collab sweetie, like Telephone. That's the only way she can get around.

Gaga's studio albums have a bigger percentage of global sales every single time, yet she's not more global.

Furthermore, Gaga's best-selling album has sold more copies WW then Bey's best-selling album WW. Gaga's best-selling singles WW have sold more copies WW than Bey's best selling singles.

She's went #1 in more countries with albums and singles.

as of right now, it's Beyoncé. There's no if ands or buts about it.

Outside U.S %ages don't show that someone is more global. If someone sells 1 copy in the US and 3 copies in Germany would that make them more Global than Gaga?

Then why is it that Alejandro doesn't have any songs listed in the best selling songs in Spain?

And why are Halo and Single Ladies Beyoncé's biggest selling hits?

But neither of them is selling 3 copies?

I did it because, some people like to brag about an album selling more WW overall, but then 60% of those sales are in US.

It's not more global if you sell 3M with 75% in US, opposed to selling 2M with 50% in US. (Neither of those are real, just an example).

Even if you don't wanna compare that Gaga has sold more albums outside US since 2009, Gaga has sold more singles outside the US since 2009, Gaga has had more T10 hits in nearly almost any market outside US since 2009.

Gaga has been more global since her debut. This/Next era is a toss up, but overall Gaga.

The monsters and other bases LOVE to cling to that "GAGA give beyonce her biggest h9it!1!!!" when it isn't even her biggest hit. Tired,stale and Delayed shade.

Sorry to correct you, iHype, but this formula is wrong from my point of view. These ratios based on percentages are very innacurate. It is true that ARTPOP sold more albums outside of the USA compared to Beyoncé, according to your percentages, but BEYONCÉ outsold ARTPOP WW by 500K which means it still sold more albums WW. More people bought the album hence it was more global. If we go by these percentages, we would say ARTPOP was more global than, let's say, 1989 when ARTPOP sold around 1.2M outside the USA and 1989 sold arond 2M outside the US. Hope you understood

All of Gaga's eras sans ARTPOP have been more global than Beyoncé's parallel eras, though. So I agree with you on The Fame/Monster and BTW.

[pablozedd]

Even though Gaga 'underperfomed' with ARTPOP.. I think she is still more Global than Bey.
artRave was going to be a smaller tour since the start. 99% of the shows were in arenas (unlike BTWBALL), less number of shows (if we compare to BTWball that was suppose to get 120 dates). And there were lots of cities/countries that Gaga could've went and had sold out at least 2 nights, but she opted to not.

Maybe if you look at career gross, but Beyoncé's been in the game more than twice as long as Gaga. The Fame has sold twice as much as any Beyoncé album worldwide. I love Beyoncé and she is a global icon, but she just doesn't have the receipts as a musician.

Is this the album that is actually 2 albums counted as one?

Each of them (The Fame and Monster) would still have sold 7,6KK WW if we split in two. Not that different.

It is different, especially when people are trying to drag another artist for not doing it in 1 album.
