You do know more copies, if not the same, of Lemonade have been bought than the amount of tickets sold on the FWT tour, right? Do you think Adele, for example, had 20-30M+ people purchase tour tickets just because her albums sold that much?
Lastly, Beyoncé is the bigger artist. End of  |
Let's be extremely technical. More people have purchased Lemonade and its tracks than they have purchased FWT tour tickets.  I don't even know what point he's trying to make. Like, Sir, explain.
He's mixing up tour gross with tour attendance. Bless him. Yes, the tour will make more money than the album. Because NONE of the tickets are less than $18.99. DUH.

Well, ****. Slay Pink. So, I guess we can say that they both outlasted the other three. Especially since Lemonade has already outsold their last albums, combined, as well.
Glad we could finally come to the same conclusion. |
I still don't see why your coming at me for saying Pink, Brit and JLO sold a comparable amount of records during 2011-2016 (because for me a decade is 2011-2020). What's the issue ?

Your so delusional. Pink is still getting Top 10 hits in 2016. Beyonce is still selling platinum albums in 2016 and is a touring monster along with Pink.
They both sure as hell outlasted Britney. Has Glory even reached 300k ww?

Simple. Bey is iconic, talented and hardworking. P!nk is as well lolz
Britney is lazy & doesn't care
Xtina has been done for a while
and J. Lo is still able to MESS a bit on the charts, but she hasn't been a REAL threat since like 2003

okay Britney fans, I get. Xtina fans? I'd understand... Jennifer Lopez fans? I'm confused. She doesn't hold a candle and sorta doesn't even deserve to be in the OP.

We're just having a discussion. Its a discussion board, ya know. Calm down a bit. I'm just gagging at these numbers a bit.
I can admit that Pink generally sells more albums than my fave and not break a sweat. Why others can't admit their faves have been outsold and move on, I have no idea.

But there's no discussion with facts which I plain and simple displayed My post where I presented the receipts even reads that Pink is a stronger album seller. Discussion board kinda implies you read what the person you're interacting with says you know ?

Jlo did not outsell Beyoncé. Until you can prove that her sales are outdated and "undercertified" then she sold LESS albums than Beyoncé with MORE releases. And do not act like the sales from the remix album, the Spanish album and the Greatest Hits album aren't counted in that 33M total. Otherwise her total sales would be even lower  . Beyoncé's 35M total is from her 6 studio albums only. And I'm confused as to why you would mention Beyoncé's touring power ? I mean, she became a huge touring force in 2009 and at the time she was already outselling Jlo by a VERY large margin. Nowadays you cannot even compare them anymore. Lemonade outsold AKA in a few hours 
Anyway, I'm not gonna "put other artists down to make Beyoncé shine". And I'm not gonna go back and forth with you either. Billboard already clocked it, Beyoncé has the bigger musical career. More albums and singles sold, more top 10, more top 20 etc etc. And that's not even counting DC  |
The fact that this even needed to be explained is a problem.

Because they were both massive flops when Britney was the most famous person in the world

Right about what? I thought we both agreed that Bey and Pink have indeed outlasted the others. Why are we still discussing this?

You contradict yourself because with ten releases Jen has sold 33m but if you take away the remix album her greatest hits and her Spanish album then she loses 5.7m albums so technically Jlo has sold 27m English studio albums which is less than the 6 studio albums Bey released which sales stand at over 35m. She released a Spanish EP not an album so you cant go saying that counts towards another album. Bottom line is Beyoncé has sold more records (Albums and singles) than JLO, as a solo artist and as part of DC. End of.

I mean all he proved is that Bey is a better album seller with less releases.

They showed the most progress (musically, vocally, as entertainers etc.), kept up the quality of their work better than the others and only started taking longer breaks when they were fully established touring acts.

Given their last albums, singles, and tours, its correct.

mess, music decades goes as following:
1980-1989 = 80's
1990-1999 = 90's
2000-2009 = 00's
2010-2019 = 10's
if we go by your definition, then Mariah who debuted in 1990 would be an 80's act by your definition, and Vogue which was released in 1990 that is being listed in 90's playlist would be, by your logic, by an 80's song, which is not true
