I would punch so many of you in the face if this discussion was in person. You guys have got to grow up and give credit where its due. Britney hasnt sang a word in decades unless you wanna count her singing happy birthday on xfactor. But i take it you dont want that counted. What britney did in her time was amazing. Rihannas the queen now. If it was so easy why isnt every girl doing it? Stop making excuses for rihannas success. Deal. Or look away. Haters.

The impact of Rihanna and Chris Brown.

"Circus" sold 4 million, because it had some worldwide promo. "Femme Fatale" had 2 promo performances during the release week and a 30-second medley at the Billboard Music Awards. All in the States, whereas Rihanna has an extensive worldwide promo schedule every era.

I don’t know why you’re bragging about that when only two of Rihanna’s seven albums sold over 4 million and one of those two needed a re-release to do it.

GGGB sold 4m without re-release.

Yet look at Britney's prior albums... Plus Britney doesn't release every single year.

You know damn well sales these years are not as big as they were years ago.

And releasing an album every year doesn't help album sales for sure.

Other artists build hype and make the release an "event". That helps them.

[PATTAR]

How can you be the princess of pop if all your albums haven't even hit #1 + releasing a album to stay relevant isn't helping either with the title

You know Rihanna has her hits

But y'all know damn well she's not pop royalty. Where's Rihanna her BOMT? Her Bad Romance?

She delivered her best vocal performance this era. (Umbrella in paris)
her most successful single came from this era.
best artistic video came from this era.
Her brand is getting bigger.
using more choreography.
Etc.
No she only gets better.

Haven't seen the performance. So I can't judge that.
Pretty sure Umbrella is still more recognizable. WFL is only more successful in the US.
Okay
What brand. No it's the same since 2007. How is it bigger?
Pretty sure she did more choreography in the SOS video than in the WHYB video.

Yet is it anything compared to Britney's resume? Nope.

FORGOT about CHRIS BROWN...the incident, the remixes, the love-affair..

Yeah, She's coming for Brit. She a little half of Brit's career.

Ok Loud sold more than Brit's album before FF WW and IASF sold more than it as well

LOL Umbrella and We Found Love are surely bigger and more iconic than BR.

Please, don't give me the hardly promo tid bit. Britney is a legend right, she shouldn't need it.

Stay pressed.

Yes, she’s a legend. That’s why she can score #1 albums, #1 singles, sell out tours, and be the world’s highest-paid female musician 14 years into her career.

Even legends need promo. Madonna is a bigger legend than any other pop girl. She has promoted this era and we all know how that went.

Anyway, no she is not, and will probably never be.

Yet did Britney even bother promoting it? Not to mention Britney had been around more than a decade. Try again, Navy.

Pretty much.
