Funny because Kanye's song with Paul struggled to sell..

Of course it sold more, it's been out for over 2 years compared to 2.5 months for FFS

Less than a million for FFS to outsell Applause WW, and it's selling 200-300k a week now, so see you in a month

You're talking about points on Mediatraffic, not actual sales. Learn to read the charts before bragging about sales.

November 27th chart is for the week 18-24, so its last week in the top 10 was for the week 11-17 November.

Muppets: 28th November
SNL: 16th November (By that time, Applause already spent FIVE more weeks in the top 10 than FFS' total so far)

Sorry, you can never win.

Because Applause rode the success of Roar... FFS did it by itself.

Gurl, I said so far ! Meaning based on the current situation.

Is it likely that 45S will outsell Applause (currently at 2.6M) - NO.

Is it likely that Bitch Better Have My Money will outsell DWUW (1.2M) - NO.

Dope was the second single and not DWUW, furthermore DWUW received more promo as well as different remixes
How much did Dope sell?

nnnn not the monsters acting like FFS is a CLUB ANTHEM about turning up Just because she mentions alcohol

Tbh.
Coming for someone who already has 20+ bigger hits than Applause and "dragging" because Applause sold only 600K more despite being released 2 years ago and received more promo. Then when you remember FFS has already outpeaked and outsold Applause in Europe and Oceania
But drag because Applause stayed in the top ten longer

First of all, the OP isn't a monster. Distinguish and learn.

SECOND of all, once again, yall don't know how to read the OP. Yall keep going off topic, trying to make yourselves feel better.

[halcyonday]

Because Applause is the bigger hit.

....what kind of reply is this? promo IS promo

"oh she performed at the VMAs in august, it doesn't count!" WTF?

Are you blind ? The OP is clearly asking how come it spent 14 weeks in the top 10, and your answer was "it had promo" , well as I proved it had heavy promo in August & September (during it's first 5 weeks in the top 10), and than had only 1 promo slot at the SNL in November. It also had Muppets but AFTER it left the top 10, this thread is about the weeks SPENT in the top 10.

If you are trolling like usually, ignoring the OP & the fact there is no point in me replying !!

ALL of these STILL happened during its 14 week stay in the Top 10 (except the muppets i guess...?) therefore its promo, you said they happened AFTER that so you're literally contradicting yourself

Gaga had:
VMAs
GMA
KIA commercial
SNL

Rihanna:
Grammys


Applause sold 2.6M in almost two years while 45S already sold near 1.6M 45S was a bigger hit worldwide too and a bigger streaming hit

Overall: 45S > Applause & DWUW

- You denying Applause (as the whole album) wasn't made for charts;
- These three artists excuses are weak, as shown several times Kanye's last singles (even the one with Paul) did not even close to FFS;
- More crossover appeal? Where? Triple A stations? Applause is something pop, hot ac, rhythmic, ac stations play. FFS? Maybe hot ac.


You all still trying with this "Applause was bigger" thing. No it wasn't, despite being a basic generic quick lil single.

45Seconds had a remix for rhythmic and urban radio airplay. It also went top ten on pop and rhythmic, out charting Applause by a large margin on the later.

I mean what's so hard to understand?
FFS sold 1.6m and stayed in the top 10 for that long with only 1 performance.

FFS is more impressive.

Am I wrong? Aren't the little monsters the ones who were messy, not that any less is expected
And there's no need to make anything feel better because first of all people have lives outside of atrl, speaking for myself that is, and I won't go crying because Applause only sold 600K more than FFS despite being released 2 yrs before.
And secondly nothing but the truth was posted, good day.

Nnnnn, almost as funny as Rihanna stans claiming '45S' wasn't designed for radio despite its lyrics, amount of writers and producers, and featured artists proving otherwise.

'Dope' was never a single.

BBHMM, a solo song by Rihanna, flopped miserably despite being designed to sell even more so than '45S'.
45S, a song featuring Kanye and Paul, was a moderate hit.

Clearly people aren't here for solo Rihanna this era.

Rihanna's singles this era are doing so poorly that Rihanna's team is afraid to announce when the album's gonna be released because they've yet to set a date.

FFS bigger than Applause and BBHMM bigger than DWUW despite 10 times less promo ?
You can keep denying, I'm leaving. Little monsters were the most delusional fanbase back in 2012 before artpop, they still are. You'll never know

Doesn't a song have to outpeak, out last and outsell another song to be bigger? In them two cases, that hasn't happened sweetie.

And Rihanna is a well known multi-format airplay artist, and Kanye has urban support. Gaga is confined to pop, outside singles like TEOG and Y&I that had cross over appeal.

applause was made for radio, had that contest for rigged views, and was practically shoved down the gp's throats. Roar helped too.
