Did Applause sell 2.9 million in the US like Rude Boy did? Please stop. I don't care about certifications

Applause sales are not updated, it's at 2.5./2.7m probably and what's the difference either way?? 200k? is that what defines a flop???

[Riha'love]

Artpop didn't have a Rude Boy, there is no assimilation.

But Gaga can rebounce a little if she makes better music.

[Superiore]

No but she can pull a Loose => The Spirit Indestructible for sure

[vuelve88]

She just released "Cheek To Cheek", which is no "Loud."

Case closed.

[Remixed]

That isn't her mission at all, so no.

The same thing we said about born this way when it didn't match tf/TFM sucesss.

not when half of the songs on BTW were great while only 2 on ARTPOP, a very steep decline

And wasn't the US Applause's biggest market? That's never the case with Rihanna Plus Rude Boy wasn't a lead single

Better yet, she'll pull an American Life => COADF

If she releases the great music she's still capable of, I don't think what Rama's posted is that far-fetched.

No.

ARTPOP did and it's called Applause. You can't always simply use peaks.

Excuse me no, Hard went top 10 in the US and Te Amo was successful in Europe (not released in US). Nice try!

Te Amo charted in 8 countries in Europe with 9 being highest position in Switserland out of all places...that's not something I'd call very successful.
(Was my summer bop tho )

Even ARTPOP has sold approximately RR's album sales, and in a much worse sales environment without the support of a five-week #1 hit.

Math may not be your strong suit but 3M > 1.8M, just fyi.

The only pop girls in 2009 selling over 5 million were Beyonce and Gaga. Britney, Katy, Kesha, and Rihanna all sold 2-3 million in that period. Rated R actually sold more than OOTB and Animal but Gaga isn't selling more than any other main pop girl.

Now you have Pink, Rihanna, Katy, Beyonce, Taylor all selling at the very least 3.5 million while Gaga is still stuck at 1.8 million. I guess she's in good company with.... Miley Cyrus maybe?

Katy was a none factor in 2009 she didn't blew up until TD era kicked in let's not

Kesha was never in Rihanna's level the self drag

And Britney didn't release anything in 2009?? So it's just Rihanna

[Allstar]

She could but she won't because she doesn't understand the problem.

She already has, with TF and BTW. I'm pretty sure TFM as a standalone EP outsold RR, too. Even if not, TFM's single sales > RR's single sales. Sorry.

This thread is obviously asking about future. Think a bit boo

If good music is all that's needed, why didn't they buy her album after hearing Applause, her most played song on US radios ?

And why are the likes of Pitbull getting hits after hits ?

Because most of the Pitbull songs are better than Applause. Applause is literally one of the worst songs I've ever heard. And my friends agrees with me
