I mean, did his career even start at some point though? He's always been a non-event.

He had some atrl and tumblr buzz.

Are you going to argue that Rih has sold more albums than Britney?

I can't

[Dämon]

US Top Album Sales: #65 @halsey, Badlands 4,669 (354,000 total).

Can't believe Halsey sold 'that much'
Legit thought she was a nobody.

[Schhh]

The label probably won't even finance a second album. Hope he didn't spend all his 1D money on drugs. Meanwhile, Liam, Niall, Harry and the fourth one are getting millions.

[Dämon]

Hm... How / Why did Halsey outsell Selegend's REVIVAL?

Something's fishy here.

I can't

I'm asking why are they more important? Because ATRL says so? Lol

Rihanna has sold 31M albums and around 200M singles. That's more impressive than whatever stats Britney has, especially considering one is white and the other one is black.

Because buying an album is more expensive than buying a single?

Not that Rih even has single sales anymore, it seems that people are progressively using the cheapest form to listen to her music as it becomes available

Race hasn't got much to do with music sales either considering the fact the highest selling artist of all time was black

[rihannafan]

But are people using any form to listen to her? And even if they were, do they know they'd be listening to Myah Marie?

The fact is, being America's white sweetheart will generate you more sales than being a black girl that isn't even American. Rihanna has sold more records than Britney despite having been disadvantaged in many ways, having released fewer albums and debuting later. Also 11 years into her career Britney was already practically irrelevant, rihanna is peaking now or has yet to peak.

I knew it was going to bomb but not this hard .

[Artemisia]

Rih is bigger than Britney overall, I agree with rihannafan.

[Dämon]

Breakdown of Rihanna's sales. And I mean, an actual breakdown for each single & album.
Until then, Britney remains the best selling female of this millenium.

[Schhh]

Godney won/wins.

[Lord Blackout]

Sales aside (Where Godney wins), Rihanna is 11 years in and still such a non-factor with barely anything long-lasting to come out of her career. She doesn't compare

[Artemisia]

In 5 years Rihanna will have logged a few more global hits and Britney will still be a flop.

It's becoming abundantly clear that she will be more remembered.

They've also released the same amount of albums

And Rih has done COUNTLESS collabs whereas Britney has only really featured on Scream & Shout throughout her entire career

[Icannot]

Holy Spearit still has an iconic breakdown!
