VforVendetta 2,024 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Prism overall outsold ARTPOP and is still outselling it. The disparity might be 2m by the end of everything In addition, Roar was a global smash as well, as was Dark Horse Unconditionally flopped globally Applause was a moderate smash in the USA but was a hit globally DWUW flopped What else do we have? Sadly it's still going The Grammy's solidified that Aka the only thing that saved DILYou didn't get it really. This is what I am saying. ARTPOP Era had only one hit and a moderate hit without a video. The Prism Era had 2 digital smashes that will approach 10M WW, radio smashes and streaming smashes + w moderate hits with a lot of airplay. Katy's singles success and radio support is unreal. Still her album has only sold 1M more than ARTPOP, which flopped. This is NOT an album artist, simply as that and the sales talk for themselves.

VforVendetta 2,024 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 4M can't be considered bad in any case unless she was doing TF+TFM kind of slayage, then 4M would be bad. 2 smashes and 4M sales is completely normal I don't think it is. We are not talking about hits jere, we are talking about 2 10M WW smahes with 420M AI and 700M views on YT alone and the era had also 2 moderate hits that will definitely approach 200M AI combined, 3M sales WW and 200M views + a huge WW campaign. These are huge numbers. 4M is ridiculous in front of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
absynthetic 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Rihanna had Stay was slaying at this time though, Beyonce though.......50. Partition and 200 something. Pretty Hurts so.....  Because of her poor marketing Casuals and hardcore fans bought the album already  Who else is going to buy the singles?   She put 2 out at the same time to see what would take off. Gaga should have done that. She didn't bother to promote Partition. And Rihanna usually is at this point too with her albums so I don't get why you are defending Rih.  Rihanna generally takes more time on her leads though, way longer Which is why she's racked up more weeks than Beyonce   You didn't get it really. This is what I am saying. ARTPOP Era had only one hit and a moderate hit without a video. The Prism Era had 2 digital smashes that will approach 10M WW, radio smashes and streaming smashes + w moderate hits with a lot of airplay. Katy's singles success and radio support is unreal. Still her album has only sold 1M more than ARTPOP, which flopped. This is NOT an album artist, simply as that and the sales talk for themselves.  And Gaga is an album artist this era? Where do her digital receipts stand right now compared to her album sales? Probably a better radio since she sold much less. What the **** is this an email from Capitol called 'katy?' with Birthday promo   The exposed payola  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaga's sales even now that she is flopping have a great ratio of singles-album sales, like she always had. Also stop bringing Gaga, I am talking you about Katy and it has nothing to do with Gaga.

Gaga's album ratio is 1:3 to 1:4 for BTW and 1:3 for ARTPOP. Its a huge difference with Katy's ratio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whispering 18,865 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Beyonce is on single #4 and the year is only 1/3 of the way finished Please, proceed  To Pop radio, they are about to release single # 3. It hasn't been officially sent to radio stations as the single yet and it has no add date.  She is averaging a single sent to Pop radio every two to three months.  With all the Urban and Rhythmic support Beyonce is getting, her album is continuing to sell and her solo tour grossed over $2 million. She's about to go on ANOTHER tour, this time a stadium one. If Beyonce wanted to, she could start up a new leg of her tour this fall to further support her current album.  I also suspect she will have a wheelbarrow full of awards, come Grammy time! ;) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
