I agree that Rihanna's statement isn't really accurate - but is just her opinion.

Exactly
And Rihanna aint sold just as much of nothing, especially compared to Beyoncé.

Rihanna's cocky, so? If she wasn't cocky she wouldn't have released "Hard" as a single or even recorded it at all. At least she's not pretending to be some kind of an angel like a other Popstars.
Which legend has praised her? I really want to know.
Eminem

I wanna thank Rihanna too for helping propel the record to where it's at right now.

Rihanna was amazing. We didn’t rehearse, she just came in for the soundcheck and nailed the song first time. I hear she’s learning the guitar but who needs to play the guitar when you can sing like that? It was so beautiful. She sang great, she’s a sweetheart of a girl
and Beyonce has been out longer
that's silly logic as beyonce has been active just as much as rihanna.
& shouldn't she have sold more in a 2003 climate as opposed to a 2011?
This is really really stupid logic. If you put out one album in 2000 and then one album 10 years later shouldn't the person who put out more albums even in a shorter time span have sold more? It's a simple numbers game that I'm sure you don't understand.
I didn't know a queen shared power, there has only been one queen since 2008 and that's gaga. But hell she's on her way out and it's up for grabs. *cougth* perry *cougth*
The only thing that bothered me is her saying "the pack" she sounded like such a daft highschool cheerleader saying that. I don't mind her including herself at all, she kinda deserves it at the moment.
I know right, it gave me Mean Girls teas at pairing popstars in high school cliques
That's what stans do, not the stars themselves
Who cares about awards when your songs are played all over the world since 5 years ago?
Rihanna is the only girl that could "compete" against Gaga, worldwide. Deal.
Thewaitingame this has nothing to do with any type of sales so IDK why you're bringing up stats. Beyoncé has been out more so she's obviously sold more, and there's also the fact that Beyoncé has sold more with less studio albums, so STAWP. SAT. Stop trying to turn this into SYG.
Beyoncé doesn't have an ego. Kanye has an ego, T.I has an ego, Madonna has an ego, etc etc.
And y'all seem to agree that Rihanna had no business making a list or including herself in it, so why all the fuss?
Lol @ stating so-called (and non-existent) "rules" an artist must fill in in order to be called "Queen" like you're J.K. Rowling of the Music Industry.
I didn't know a queen shared power, there has only been one queen since 2008 and that's gaga. But hell she's on her way out and it's up for grabs. *cougth* perry *cougth*
That's why LOUD was the second album of 2010 & 2011 (behind adele) to pass the 5 million mark.
Rihanna had every ****ing right to make a list of who she thinks rule the music industry at the moment, simply because:
1) Freedom of Speech. Who are you to say and judge her for what she can or cannot say?
2) She's a huge star and definitely one of the top stars in the Music Industry, so she named herself rightfully.
3) 41,701,721.
