beyonce's songs come out the same way - as do britney's and many others.
the funny thing is...beyonce's singles (and albums when it comes to the worldwide picture) do worse than Rihanna's

But Beyoncé ends with 83 million made 2 years in a row.

Why am I delusional when it was reported by Forbes? You're so dumb.

I'm sure she makes all their money back and then some (or they'd drop her), but she cannot afford to flop.

In any case, to return to our approximate tally: After $78,000 to make the song, and another $1 million to roll it out, Rihanna's "Man Down" gets added to radio playlists across the country, gets a banner ad on iTunes ... and may still not be a hit.

As it happens, "Man Down" has not sold that well, and radio play has been minimal.

But Def Jam makes up the shortfall by releasing other singles. And only then— if the label recoups what it spent on the album — will Rihanna herself get paid.

That explains so much.

Very interesting article.

So I guess the rumor of Ciara paying to record Basic Instinct is a complete lie then.

In what universe lol?

Bey's "flop" album scanned over 6 mil WW while Rihanna's best only did slightly more than that. Let's not even get into DIL selling more than three of her albums combined and IASF scanning more than Loud. Did I leave any out?

y u no tell me how copies IASF sell in seven months Worldwide?............................


Can you tell me how Beyonce's singles weren't as radio friendly as Rihanna's singles? Of course Rihanna would sell more singles. Only Girl was a pretty generic song.. and i'm trying to say that in the nicest way possible. And What's My Name had Drake on it.

Since when a generic song win a grammy for Best Dance Recording.
IASF has a re release with Ego having the gay fish Kanye West on it and ' Video Flop' (feat. Lady Gaga) with a big hype

Bitch, speak English

What the hell does Rolling Stone have to do with the amount of albums sold? Bey has sold more albums and there's nothing else to be said.
