chris777 112 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I'll give credit where it's due Rihanna (WW): Estimates Music of the Sun - 1.5m A Girl Like Me - 3m Good Girl Gone Bad - 9m Rated R - 3m Loud - 6m Talk That Talk - 3.5m Unapologetic - 3.7m Beyonce (WW): Estimates Dangerously In Love - 11m B Day - 6.3m I am Sasha Fierce - 7m 4 - 2.8m Beyonce - 3.2m fixed. All confirmed sales (i don't know where you got 4.5M for TTT and sorry but 4 was at 2.1m by the end of 2011 i doubt it sold 900K in 2012-2013) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
absynthetic 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Well for us, it's very bad so.. I mean TF+TFM = 15 millions Born This Way = 7 millions ARTPOP 1,8 omg the decay We need a rerelease EP like TFM to rescue those sales to 5m if the quality is present If not, at least give us 2.5m WW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VforVendetta 2,024 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Those are with receipts (not updated) Rihanna sells a lot more albums WW than domestically I know. Rihanna is very WW, one more reason that makes her album sales seem weak. The numbers talk for themselves. Its like saying that Katy is an album artist, which is not true.

Btrs 10 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Is it true that Zedd produced Problem? **** I guess Gag will need to drop the heavy EDM for her next album if she wants a hit again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
absynthetic 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 fixed. All confirmed sales (i don't know where you got 4.5M for TTT and sorry but 4 was at 2.1m by the end of 2011 i doubt it sold 900K in 2012-2013) Thank you, I was going based off of other aggregated estimates but I should have looked more into the matter Either way, Rihanna is only 2m shy of Beyonce's best selling album WW, and while that's a huge number, for someone as big as Beyonce who has multiple tours in the Top 10 best selling tours of all time list for women compared to Rihanna, who everyone considers a "singles artist"............... Is that not embarrassing on Beyonce's part? Rihanna's able to outsell her rather quickly Had Beyonce not had a surprise release, she'd be at less than 2m WW right now A true albums artist? I know. Rihanna is very WW, one more reason that makes her album sales seem weak. The numbers talk for themselves. Its like saying that Katy is an album artist, which is not true. Numbers were updated above. Also, Katy currently is more of an album artist than Gaga, if you will, as well as Miley who's generally outsold her and is nearing both Beyonce and Rihanna in terms of WW album sales She's faring pretty well overall Both Katy and Rihanna are Beyonce's rapidly declining as is Gaga, sadly.

Mariano 958 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Well for us, it's very bad so..

hausofmike 127 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Good Girl Gone Bad was Re-released. Of course it has sold that much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
absynthetic 0 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Good Girl Gone Bad was Re-released. Of course it has sold that much. So? 4 could have been re-released, but why waste all that money if you're only going to sell 150k more copies WW? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't compare just the numbers of the albums because their singles didn't have the same succees. ARTPOP has only 2M WW sales but it only had a hit, a moderate hit with no video and a flop while Prism had 2 of the biggest digital sales of the year that were also chart toppers, two moderate hits with a video and more than 550M AI only in the US. Prism is around 3M+ WW I think. Sorry but the a--logy is pretty bad. ARTPOP album sales are expected, they are very bad for Gaga but they match the single success. No Katy is no album artist. Her singles are just that huge that her album is selling relatively well but for her success it's pretty bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GagaMyBlood95 9,808 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 We need an EP, like seriously, by Gaga standards, these album numbers are horrible, but by normal standards aka todays market, they are okay/average for a pop star with one hit off the album...

Her singles are just that huge that her album is selling relatively well but for her success it's pretty bad. 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?

hausofmike 127 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Bey also has half of Rihs albums so you can't really compare. Bey takes breaks. Rih has 5 songs out every year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
