Although it will be kinda sad how Grammy 2 Grammy might outsale ARTPOP in the U.S. this Winter. Plus they need to update ARTPOP it's not even certified Plat.

I think that's because a platinum certification means 1 million copies sold in the US, which ARTPOP has yet to achieve.

Oh I agree. 2.5 million albums sold is still an incredible feat! I've made this argument many times myself! If she hadn't had the success she did with BTW, noone would have complained about ARTPOP's sales. She only did 'badly' by her own insane standards.

It's like expecting Michael Jackson to outsell Thriller with each and every album.

SPS yes, but in pure sales Rihanna hasn't reached 1M yet 

See it's crap like this that really gets me. Same thing with Ariana's My Everything. I mean no shade to those artists, they have their own lanes and congratulations to them that they get certified but the fact that ARTPOP which outsold those two albums in pure sales but is yet to be certified Platinum is just :saladga:

It adds to the insult to the nonexistent injury that "ARTPOP is a flop".

Maybe RIAA haven't counted Gaga's Streams for ARTPOP because I'm pretty sure we would have been certified 1x or 2x platinum.

Now if only monsters who complained about ARTPOP's sales but didn't buy the album would at least stream it...

Calling this album a flop when it did so well with one top 10 single and now artists with multiple hits are lucky to do 100k.

Maybe the 'streaming counts' rule was only added later after ARTPOP was released? I wouldn't know, probably need to ask the chart experts here.

streaming should be added to any album, the reason it isn't certified is because interscope/RIAA hasn't go around to it (they are able to add more certifications to her singles though smh). I think someone calculated streams and with pure sales and streams it is around 1.3 million, it's probably around 1.7/1.8 million when we account for album track downloads.
