Hymn has sold more than TIWYCF. And on top of that Hymn is the 2nd single of an album that has sold over 3.5M copies. TIWYCF doesn't have a huge album taking sales from it

I don't know in which ghetto you live but I never EVER heard ANYONE say the term "Pulling a Beyonce" so idk why you cling to that so much.
Google is not the real world.

Also, the Anti era is bigger and longer lasting than Lemonade, hence why Rihanna will end up higher artist on the year-end artists chart

Also the fact is:
ANTI era: Work #1 viral WW smash, Needed me, TIWYCF and Too Good, new single about to gain momentum 7 months after the release, album still top 10, X2 Platinum in the US alone. Smash videos.
Lemonade era: no hits, ended 2 months after release.

Rihanna's first albums established her as a "Pop/R&B Princess"[272] by music critics; Nick Levine of Digital Spy described her third studio album Good Girl Gone Bad, as the closest thing to a Thriller that 2007/08 is likely to produce.[273] Her single "Umbrella", famous for its "ella ella" hook, is considered by Rolling Stone to be one of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.[274] Her 2011 single "We Found Love" was ranked by Billboard as the 24th biggest US Billboard Hot 100 hit of all time.[103] The music video for the song won the Grammy for Best Short Form Music Video and MTV's Video of the Year.[275][276] Her collaboration with Eminem, "Love the Way You Lie", together with "Umbrella", "Disturbia", "Only Girl (In the World)", "We Found Love", and "Diamonds", are some of the best-selling singles of all time worldwide.
Time magazine included Rihanna on its 100 Most Influential People in the World issue in 2012. Stella McCartney writes "She's one of the coolest, hottest, most talented, most liked, most listened to, most followed, most impressive artists at work today, but she does it in her own stride. She works hard, very hard. She gives to her fans, friends and foundation not just herself but her energy and spirit." [277] In November 2013, Rihanna was given the "Icon Award" at the 2013 American Music Awards.[278][279] On June 2, 2014, Rihanna was presented with Fashion Icon lifetime achievement award from Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), a special prize reserved for "an individual whose style has made a significant impact on popular culture on an international stage".[280] In August 2013, Rihanna is placed at number 13 on Billboard's "Greatest Of All Time Hot 100 Artists" list,[281] being its highest ranking newcomer.[282] Billboard also ranked Rihanna the top Hot 100 artist of the 2010s decade.[5] In 2014, Time magazine's ranking of pop stardom, saw Rihanna ranked second, only behind Mariah Carey.
Rihanna's work has directly influenced a number of contemporary artists such as Little Mix,[284] Selena Gomez,[285] Justin Bieber,[286] Ellie Goulding,[287] Tegan and Sara,[288] [289] Jessie J,[290] Cover Drive,[291] Fifth Harmony,[292] Demi Lovato,[293] Alexandra Stan[294] and Willow Smith.[295] Rihanna has an honorary title of Ambassador for Culture and Youth in Barbados.[296] Additionally, Rihanna has become a dominating figure in social media and internet streaming, ranking at number one on Forbes' 2012 list of Social Networking Superstars.[297] In 2013, Rihanna was also named the most influential pop star in the United Kingdom by UK channel 4Music.

Let me break it down since it went over you head.
The point is Rihanna has NEVER shook up the industry the way Beyoncé has. Beyoncé is the reason Rihanna & among many other artists released their albums in creative ways etc. Play dumb.
