Arturo 40,746 Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 2.3 is the number Universal Music Group reported This 1.8 number is from Mediatraffic, a site run by avid chart followers Take that as you will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emvee 7,178 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Not 500,000 people returning their copies of ARTPOP  get dem 500,000 returns   ---------------------  Either UMG is lying ( ) or Mediatraffic is player hating HARD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
migamiga 12,073 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 1.8 sounds right though. I never believed 2.3 was her actual sales, but shipment instead. Because if she only sold 700,000 in the US how has she sold 1.6 million in the rest of the world? Usually US sales make up about 1/3 of WW sales Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mills 446 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Do UMG also report 700.000 sales in the US only?  The US record sales are exclusively tracked by Nielsen SoundScan, as reported by Billboard. There's no way a label could be able to refute the stats released by SoundScan... unless a new sales tracking system provider is created, and more crucially, accepted by the music industry.  On the other hand, there's currently NO tracking system for the worldwide record sales as detailed and 100% accurate as SoundScan's. The closest counterpart for that is IFPI, which gives out global music industry reports (including global album and single sales) annually recognized by the global music industry itself (i.e. Billboard, the labels). The 2.3 million figure came from IFPI, and it was clearly indicated as sales. As I've mentioned in the past, the figures from IFPI are universally accepted as sales even long before ARTPOP was released or Gaga rose to stardom.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 It's actually near to 3M.. 2 330 000 in 2013 and + 520 000 in 2014 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nein 508 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Can we have a confirmation for 2.3 or 1.8 I'll choose to believe 2.3 tho :derpga: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
YeehawKylie 7,817 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I don't know how this is a flop when tons of artists would kill to sell this amount of records. People are just calling her a flop because she doesn't have the cultural pull she had back in 2009-2011. Watching her numbers, she's about on track. The Fame sold 15 million WW, BTW sold 6 million WW, ARTPOP sells 2.3 million WW. It's actually pretty consistent. Â Had ARTPOP's sales followed The Fame, yes, that is a HUGE dip. People just call her a flop because she's not as big as she used to be and of course, she doesn't sell how she used to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IFPI reports the label numbers  just like Femme Fatale is certified platinum in the US. 1M sold to retailers and 770k that people bought Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

13VictorC 1,069 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Isn't this the same amount that Michael Jackson sold during his "ARTPOP" era as mentioned in another thread? The Queen following the steps of the King. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
