Okay, Great!!!

So could S&M be #2 by Friday, once the Grammy effect wears off?

who knows!

at least from what I've been seeing from the popbars... S&M is gaining very well...

But I need a Doctor is gaining a lot too. and Gaga is dying but not fast enough.

Maybe #3 is possible this week. INAD and BTW are still very strong.

anyway... we still haver the NBA....

I need S&M to be performed

I forgot about INAD! Okay, well I just hope S&M continues to stay in the Top 10 for a while, once airplay gets around 50 million, then I'm sure it will float around Top3. S&M needs to be performed at NBA, she has to do some promo!!!

BTW isn't dying that fast, but I mean I think once its overtakened by a song, it will fall pretty fast, I mean Airplay is way to high to begin with, and people will get sick of it i'm sure!

next week should be the one with a REAL BOOST.

If she delivers at the NBA midtimes (S&M included...) S&M could get a BIG boost and LOUD get the needed increase too (without others being pushed too like with the grammys....)

If next week they DISCOUNT Loud on iTunes after a GOOD performance @the NBAs.... I really think Loud should be above 50K and maybe fight for that #1 (or at least a new peak) in the US.

THEY NEED TO DISCOUNT LOUD NEXT WEEK

I agree with you! I hope they do discount LOUD, we need to someone get Rihanna on twitter and let her know this!!!

S&M if performed would skyrocket, but it has to be alittle better than Brit Awards, she was alittle pitchy, but i'm sure she will do much better, given she was recovering from sickness and it was the first time peforming it

Really? How much has the Fame sold? Can LOUD pass it?

[Chrïs.]

The Fame is 9X platinum.I doubt Loud will pass it,without re-release.

IT will pass it, i'm sure there will be a re-release, and who knows, she may even have a repeat during X-Mas season, especially if CKB is a single, or Cheers!

^ With a re-release,it might.

So happy Riri won yesterday.:heart:

Gaga robbed Rihanna's #1 for S&M in Canada!! so sad.... (same happened in New Zealand too...)

As for digital singles, it’s all female pop with Lady Gaga’s new single, “Born This Way” at #1 (44,000 paid downloads) followed by Rihanna’s “S&M” (17,000) and P!nk’s “F**kin’ Perfect” (13,000.)

Anyway, album sales for Loud are also up to around 5.000 (they were 3.600 last week.)

So well... at least thats another Top3 for S&M....

[J-cLOUD]

i doubt it can surpass TF, its still selling and with the release of gagas new album it will be popular again..... anyway Imagine if Loud sells 2 Million in the UK only! And that is on lock! Even if she wouldnt release any single anymore Loud would end up at 1.5Million.... and lets say we gat one more single from Loud +2 more from re-release. I think it can go as far as 2.5M

Yeah, I think LOUD will come close to TF, I mean Rihanna still has a tour coming this year, and i'm sure it will only help the album shift some sales!!! 2.5 million is incredible, what is that? 7x plat?

lets go little by little.

The first step is to go 4xPlatinum, which should be achieved in less than 1 month time (3-4 weeks)

S&M will probably be around for another 8-10 weeks, and I say that by the time the 4th single comes (late April, early May) Loud should be around 1.300.000 - 1.400.000 copies.

Next single..... I'm not sure (surprisingly the UK is LOVING MAN DOWN!!! it is the most downloaded song apart from the singles (right now its #260 on iTunes) and The next is California King Bed (#295 on iTunes) So.... it needs to be one of those two.)

I think CKB will be HUGE and can sell anoher 300K in the UK it alone.... So after that it should be way above 5xPlatinum.

If they keep pushing the album, it should be able to go 6xPlatinum without a re-release.

I SOOOOOOO WANT MAN DOWN TO BE NEXT SINGLE!!

I think it can surprise SO MANY NEW FANS to a new sound.... NOBODY ELSE is doing that Reggae songs ATM....
