Whether Anti outsold it or not, It still isn't a good look for 'Artpop'.

You're embarrassing. Everyone knows 45s AO BBHMM were songs off Anti but were scrapped due to horrible underperformance of each and every single one. Higher, Love on The Brain and Never Ending fit perfectly with 45s. Also those were promoted as her singles until she realized people were not buying her shtick so she decided to ask Drake for help. And that's how we got Work.

The only thing embarrassing here is you You're in here acting like It's a proven fact when in reality executive producers changed.

I think u still did not understand the main concept. FFS, BBHMM and AO are not on ANTI, no discussion needed here.

They were meant to and you all know it, she just messed it up and tried to cover the mess leaving the songs out of the album

1. Noone knows. Only a few pressed ATRL members claim so.

2. HORRIBLE UNDERPERFORMANCE? I dont need to post FFS receipts, stop embarrasing yourself now.

Gaga released ARTPOP in the BEST possible sales climate (pre-Black Friday/holidays).
Rihanna released Anti in the WORST possible sales climate (January).

people had gift cards and money from christmas/holidays.

OT: talent

So if FourFiveSeconds was scrapped for "horrible performance", then what does that make Applause(gaga's ONLY hit from the era )

what did she mess up? FFS was doing GREAT all over the world so "flopping" is not te reason she would not include it on ANTI. there were other reasons like she didnt feel like putting it on Anti? Cause the song was released over a year before Anti?

FFS peaked in the top 5 of 30+ countries (including the US & UK), sold 2M in the US, 4.5M WW, has 340M views on YT, 300M streams on Spotify. Such a flop.

BBHMM went #1 on itunes for a whole week, sold 1.1M in the US, almost 2M WW, has 210M+ streams on Spotify, went #1 on urban radio....another horrible underperformance for a trap song with a censored video & no pop radio support.

ANTI chart run (SALES ONLY)

1 - 6 - 6 - 5 - 8 - 12 - 10 - 9 - 16 - 10 - 9 - 12 - 14

One had 0 promo, the other plenty of promo.
Stop embarassing yourselves.

well that "bad" chart run still resulted in 1.4M+ extra copies w/o streaming

Anti sold 380K in pure sales after 4 months and work was #1 on the hot 100 for 9 weeks
ARTPOP sold 600K after 4 months with a mediocre hit

Applause sold 1 million in 6 weeks, stayed in the top 10 of the hot 100 for 14 weeks and reached n4 on it. It was just a hit sorry

[TalkThatRihanna]

You guys are so dumb even is you claim that FFS, BBHMM, and AO were scrapped for "Horrible performance"(which in fact only AO flopped), they were released 8-10 Months BEFORE Anti was released. You guys are ignoring the actual start of the Era (Work).

She probably couldnt get the album done or whatever, we were all waiting for it to drop in 2015 because 45s was the beginning of the era and thats it, you cant deny this. She basically promoted herself and the music for a year

FFS peaked at #4 too and sold around the same despite being released 2 years later.
