Yeah, because Gaga scored almost another million internationally during her debut week...
She is so local...

I agree with this. Her eras are so close together that they probably blend to the general public. Besides her fanbase, do people really know that We Found Love is a lead single?
These numbers aren't that good for someone of her fame.

Did he lie though? She literally finished recording the album about 2 weeks before the release, she only promoted ONCE. I mean artists are supposed to plan ahead and build hype for their albums and promote like crazy. She didn't do any of this for this release.
Hopefully she gets it together for album #7.

Maybe she's Madonna during the "Bedtime Stories" era.
Seriously, though -- I truly wonder if Rihanna or her team thought this album was
going number one, or if this is shocking to her and her team that it debuted at
number three. Are they satisfied with this debut? Was it the original plan?

Not necessarily. Whenever the single is played on the radio the release date isn't announced like it would be if she did proper promo.

i was simply making a comment on rihanna's lack of starpower and influence, and how she relies on her label's generic radio hits more than others to get sales. she just can't sell solely based on her name is all i'm saying
|
Most artist who sale 'solely based on their name' have trouble sustaining longevity without successful singles. So again, this boggles down to whether or not you think first week sales are more important then longevity.

This thread is a disaster. You all shouldn't bother shading 4 when the sales are great & it's one of the best albums of 2011.
Same backlash as usual for Rihanna. Talk That Talk.

Don't imagine things. I never said that. GaGa is huge worldwide but her biggest fans are her main fanbase is in the US. People don't go GaGa for GaGa as the US goes GaGa.
