Discounting a song to $0.99 (Only Girl) is drastically different than selling the "album of the decade" at that price, first week sales at that.

You guys were talking about TTT not Loud. And Loud has been out for half a year longer and had more sure fire hits so that says something. Anyways, the 99c was only TWO days in America and counted for 400k of the 1.1M US debut. Try again. And I find this quite odd coming from Rihanna stans considering Rated R was discounted to 99C on Amazon for a WHOLE WEEK yet nobody wanted to buy it.
For all her expensive writing camps and the sheer # of albums, singles, and cross-genre collabs she's released (not to mention radio saturation), I expected Rihanna to have much bigger album sales.
Better than your fave's. A 10 week #1, which is longer than all of GaGa's or Britney's #1's combined at the top, as well as 3 million albums globally. Consistently delivering.
IKR? Last time I heard it was like at 6 million, and Loud easily breezed to that number in less than a year and Rihanna did a hair flip and strutted right on into the next era.
When this thing decided to throw failed shade and boast TTT's sales.

She would if you other rival stans would pay for her music. Loud was what? The most pirated album of 2010 and was only out for a little over a month? Your faves could never. Let's also not forget Femme Fatale sold 749K in the US while Loud pushed at least 1.6M.
