But, considering the facts that there was SO much hype leading up to that era, and she promoted that album more than the last two combined, and she only sold 181k first week, i definitely see what you mean.

I love Rih but it's quite unexplainable why Rated R did the way it did, it's one of the best albums of all time, her looks were the best of any era, she had tons of promo, she discounted it to 99 cents in the 2nd week and yet it felt flat, I blame the fact that the GP for once saw right through the gimmicks of an artist and the whole CB thing backfired on her.
