other artist shave no problem going platinum you know who they are i don't have to name them
coming off of GGGB and pulling numbers like she did on rated r with number one singles is a flop.

Why are you even in this thread?

Well she went Platinum in less than a year so I don't see how that was a problem. It's not like it took 2-4 years to go Platinum....

Break It Off never went gold, and neither did If Its Lovin. :elis_rhythm:
And theres no way Hard has sold that much. :elis_rhythm:
More like 1.4 Mill.

[Duca]

LMAO @ the 'sales'. "Hard" is at 1.5-1.6 million, "Hate That I Love You" is a little over a million, 1.5 million is a long shot. "Break It Off" is somewhere around 400K, maybe gold. "Rehab" is at 800K and "If I Never See Your Face Again" is at 800K+ as well.

There is a difference between having a platinum and a multi-platinum single, you don't count the multi-platinum platinum certifications under one time platinum certifications.

According to your 'list', she has:
One 4X Platinum single
Four 3X Platinum singles
Three 2X Platinum singles
Eight Platinum singles


And Dear Lord at 500K+ for "If It's Lovin' That You Want".

Duca, lets not get crazy. I dont wanna whip out Radar's sales.
Break It Off is past 500k, I remember, but it isn't as much as he said.

"Radar" sold more than 500K in the US, but let's not get into that.

I think I read somewhere that "Break It Off" is gold, but no way it sold more than a million, it was a big airplay hit if I recall well though.

It had more success on a worldwide scale, reaching the top five in Poland and Slovakia, the top ten in Australia and New Zealand and number eleven on the UK Singles Chart; it also became her first number-one crossover hit in the Philippines.

Then why would you say it sold 400k. :eli's_rhythm:

As of July 2010, "Radar" has sold 481,000 paid digital downloads in the United States.

excuse me but there are no fficial ways of looking at those numbers... so I have to rely on what I see. anyway.... I can assure that the Songs from Rated R and her biggest selling singles (from SOS on) are 100% reliable also we got the numbers from Unfaithful and Pon De Replay some weeks ago, so they are reliable too.

So the numbers are not that wrong... dont act as if I invented the numbers

Cause I'm not sure, and what I meant was that it's at 400K+ in the US, maybe gold.

Again, wikipedia? It was at more than half a million after "Glee".

RIAA didn't certify those songs at all and there are no official sources, the wikipedia doesn't even have a semi-reliable source, it has no source at all.

I told you that the numbers I copied from wikipedia and other sources are just:

hate that I love you (which I know its platinum, but didnt know how much it had sold)
break it off (which I had no idea and I just thought wikipedia's platinum certificate was correct)
If its loving that you want(same as break it off)
and If I never see your face again... which I learned it had sold much more than I thought and its above 500K..... so... whats your problem?

[Cobato]

This song doesn't feel like a hit.

idk It feels like Rihanna is just "here" this era. She's not making that big of a splash like I thought she would.

[FAN]

I agree . If this song is still Top 10 on iTunes in 2 months then we can consider this a big hit . And I think it might , unless it falls like a rock because of WMN but I doubt it

I still stand by my 3 x Platinum prediction .

[Blood Orange Sun]

Only Girl needs to smash harder though.
