Sorry Colin

Jay + Samsung = 530k first week

There NO excuse. The 90s argument doesn't work cause there's a lot of 90s rappers flopping.
And supposedly Rih is a global pop star.

Taylor looks pretty. I just hope she changes up her hair situation next era.

She needs to dye it or curl it or get rid of the bangs.

1) those 1 million were given WW. I thought RiRi was super global, why would that have so much effect in the US
2) it was officially released on Friday, what are you talking about?
3) so what? iTunes is huge, remember Beyonce selling 660k in 3 days?

The 1M downloads counted toward platinum in the US only.
No, the album was released through Tidal on Wednesday, what are YOU talking about?
Yes, I remember Beyonce selling 600K in 3 days with her out-of-nowhere, not preceded with a single
visual album. And I'll never deny the impact of that but it's a different scenario. Connect the dots.

Radioactive is the best pop song not by Gaga this decade.

Jay-Z is a legend and albums artist.
Rihanna, until literally just now, was an artist people used for quick hits.
This is new for her, she switched it up.
And was Jay's album NOT released both physically and digitally on the same day?
And was his album NOT appropriately released on a proper day and not 2 days before the end of the tracking week?

Yeah, stop.

Godrina really punched with Froot. Now pop girls are bombing left and right cuz she just won't let them breathe.

[Artemisia]

[collin]

It was Meghan Trainor's debut era and she's literally targeted at privileged white people...

[Halien4Life]

Week 1: TIDAL exclusive for two days, one million free downloads given away
Week 2: iTunes release
Week 3: Physical release

All in the slowest month of the year for album sales.

Yeah - if you don't realize the reasons why she's not gonna have phenomenal numbers...

[Artemisia]

pretty sure a career spanning more than 10 years and 13 number 1s can overcome the deleterious effects of racism but maybe i am overstating ICON's power

[Skywalker]

I'm sure that no matter how bad RiRi sells, she'll be selling more than the critical repellent Charlie Puth.

[G.U.Y. Gaga]

I couldn't use this site for days

[LoKoPaNdA]

The way hitless GODRINA got a top 10 album in the US while radio artist Charli peaked even below Carly's EMOTION

[collin]

1 million downloads in 14 hours.

Sheesh, there are very little celebrities that could do this.

[Delilah.]

Didn't marina release a full Dr Luke album only to have it flop then say that it was some commentary on how shallow pop music is?

also her music would be better if she didnt sound like a whale. I liked froot though.

[Nialler]

not free downloads being an achievement now

Godrina will keep her foot on everyone's necks. I am very happy for MD4 it will be more acclaimed than every Katy album yet again!
