The key word is records because she has actually sold less albums than all the 'pop girls' except for Katy.

Anyways, endless collaborations is the answer. Just take a look at all of her biggest hits, they are with Eminem, Drake, Calvin, Jay Z and other huge artists. If you take away her collabs she has actually sold on pair with the other girls.

Minus collabs she still outsells them

[Stitches.]

Because she's popular and her fanbase is huge

Doesn't she only feature in like 10 songs?

Well yes, but it is still more than most of her contemporaries who have less than half of that number, half of her albums, half of her singles, etc.

Oop

[robotdanger]

Doesn't she have the most albums out of all the current popgirls? She only has one multiplat album and that's GGGB.

[Last Boy on Earth]

The youngest of them all too

Well that's what happens when you release an album every year from 2005 to 2012.

Does she?

Pretty sure Gaga has just as many..

21 singles for Gaga as lead artist, 19 for Katy as lead artist, 44 for Rihanna as lead artist

So you tell me if that is just as many.


Katy's records are more impressive if were looking album by album and single by single. You should reresearch and make a thread about her

[Bey Admired]

Because she's released like a gazillion albums in such a short space of time. You'd need to times the average sales of all the albums for each pop girl to find the true best sellers. My guess is Adele would be dominating each and every single one.

[Valentine]

because she's Rihanna, global phenomenon

[Tim£]

Jay-Z is an excellent manager, she's released ten billion albums and she better slay those collaborations

[karron0624]

Probably because she released seven albums and a hell of a lot of singles during the digital peak. And she was one of the baddest bitches ever during that time period.

[stevyy]

nobody benefited from the digital age more than her.

we shouldnt talk of records in this case, but physical and digital units which reflects that digital singles downloads were much bigger than physical singles sales ever were and the word units would also be open for streamng which is something that the old legends rare strive on.

also... digital downloads at its peak (and even today) far outpeaked physical albums sales at its peak.

[Tom Vercetti]

Because people are interested in her.
