Yeah, those two are a MUST and should be the next singles. "Fire Bomb" in February/spring, "Rude Boy" for the summer.

It hasn't gotten the BEST start, but it's not a bad start either. Def Jam just can't drop the ball with another wrong single

lmaoo gggb sold less then that and went 2x platinum. I don't remember Britney going 2x after opening with 500k

You TRIED it..

[Reeces]

...but that's the prediction for first week sales only, and we don't even have the official numbers

Ya'll can hate all you want, it doesn't matter

[Beatfreak]

either way, this is going to turn out boring as hell. subo #1 and glambert #2? yawn, gaga & rihanna should be owning. this is so depressing..

[SwagLikeALegend]

How does this mark the end of her career? Rated R is her best album to date, how can you expect over 200k with a single like "Russian Roulette"? And "Hard" is blowing up so I expect this to be a stable selling album.

[Ivan_brit]

the abumits seeling very good world wide in USA are just ok but this album its not a flop

[A Muse]

"Rude Boy" for Rated R is like "Starstruck" from The Fame

aka OUTDATED and OVERRATED. It only sounds like a single when compared to the rest of the tracks from Rated R which are even less commercial. "Rude Boy" has a dated sound and it is not a hit.

Hopefully the Deluxe Edition will push The Fame to 2x platinum. and I'm sure the standard edition will have no problems getting +1 million.

I KNEW the pressed haters and stuck-up 2Dimensional bishes were gonna come out.

LOVES IT.

Mad? So what... I swear everyone on this board are over-dramatic & exaggerating queens. So the album didn't sell a MILLION on it's first day! And...? Russian Roulette go Platinum first minute on iTunes? No

She's here to stay. Love it! Hate It? We'll get at you in 2010!

Still crying 'FLOP'?

Both are great songs and very commercial. GaGa could have gotten another #1 if she released "Starstruck" in the US.
And "Rude Boy" is the only song that compares to the pop/R&B sound of GGGB, and maybe "Cold Case Love".

she's crazy, starstruck is the best song gaga has ever recorded. it's def. not OVERRATED. if anything, it's UNDERRATED, and she can still release it if she wants after monster singles (you never know, she might change her mind) it would go right up to #1.

and rude boy would be an AMAZING single.

A Muse, please stop comparing GaGa to Rihanna. Keep them separate until the day they collaborate. (that would be a dream come true)

Amen. And that's why it'd be succesful, since GGGB is her strongest album. Sadly, RR is her weakest.

[Beatfreak]

^ Music of the Sun is her weakest, Rated R doesn't have a bad track on it. Maybe not all are commercial, but not a bad track.

Should I add "IMO" to my last post?

[R`0`K`R]

After Hard, I would like to see Photographs become a single. I can see pop radio really eating that up.

[Beatfreak]

^ because it sounds like everything on BEP's The E.N.D.
It almost sounds like Fergie singing, I can smell the autotune in that song.

Her albums for me:
1. Good Girl Gone Bad - This is a masterpiece. Few heavy dance songs, killer ballads and great mid-tempos. I'm just mad she didn't release the title track and "Breakin' Dishes" as singles.
2. A Girl Like Me - A great album that plays smoothly from the begging to the end. Few up-tempos, few ballads and a bit more mid-tempos.
3. Rated R - It has it's good sides, but bad too. She was trying to be bitchy and it doesn't fit her.
4. Music Of The Sun - I could listen just to 4 songs, I skipped all the rest.

[Jeiboy]

I'm sure Rih is more proud of Rated R than GGGB in terms of music and personal outcomes, not in terms of success.

thats why it makes it as her best
