The deflection is too much
your fave will never see a 1M week opening so I dont see why you keep bringing it up. I can use WW sales because more countries than the US use Gaga especially in major markets like Japan where your fave will barely manage to see any type of certifications
I mean keep trying to come for Gaga's success while indirectly continuing to show how your fave will never have it

Don't worry, she'll flop the second a compelling female decides to attach her name to a catchy song at every possible opportunity. Luckily for Rihanna, most of her peers would rather just make the music they want and reap whatever reward they can out of it.
Not too much on the Black Madonna.
Hmm. I suppose it makes sense. Ultraviolence isn't a phrase I would associate with a character like Lana Del Rey.
Tropico is the end of "Lana Del Rey" ?????

Anyone else notice how poorly Rihanna's singles sell individually? People talk so much about their impact and digital power, but they almost always they sell less than the equivalents from other artists.
In fact. Diamonds was the worst selling multi week #1 of 2012.
Early 2013 had a barrage of ballads from major artists.... of which Stay was the worst selling of them all despite its "longevity".
Sure she has her big solo single We Found Love which sold well, but not nearly as well as the other big pop girls big sellers. Where is her 6/7 million selling solo tracks like Gaga's and Katy's?

Rihanna, her first three weeks WW are trending ahead of. Gaga, her first three weeks worldwide. The self-clock

Gaga's wikipedia page has "G.U.Y." listed as her third single.
Which one of you edited this? lol

Real talk, I still haven't watched Tropico.
I just don't care enough. Music videos are pretty much a dead medium to me.
If it had been me, I would have made sure to include a bit about it being the power bottom anthem of our generation.

Not me since the third single needs to be Gypsy.
Is Applause or DWUW gonna go 3x plat like Diamonds? Is Unconditionally gonna outsell stay (last seen at 3.7M)? I mean, you need to quit. Her singles sell amazingly. Maybe she doesn't have a solo 6M seller (not many do, and she does have one on LTWYL but you discredit that for some odd reason) but her singles do well, no matter what qualifications you attempt to put in place to make them look bad.
Trying to make two 3x play singles seem like bad sales. A mess.

Honestly I'd be cool with G.U.Y. It's like LoveGame on steroids.
Gypsy seems to be the foregone conclusion though

I could only think of three. The three Rihanna vids from this year. If TM comes out before the deadline it'll be 4.
I couldn't think of a single video for the Popgaf Grammys

There's always going to be some random ho brought up who has a single that sold more than one of Rihanna's singles, but they sure aren't going to have 25 top 10s, with about half of them being number 1s.

Throw enough shit at the wall.... something has gotta stick.

I didn't say they were bad.... I said that considering their radio/chart success they should have sold more.
Unconditionally and Applause didn't do well sure, but even Katy and Gaga's flops sell more than Rihanna's flops. What is What Now sitting at?

Their second will be here shortly.
They just can't understand Queen Louis and Zayn's ARTPOP.
Then... Where are all of 1D's 3x plat singles?

One last year. Plus an upcoming one this year.
One a year is not a terrible record tbh.

Well then, that shot has killed any interest I had in the Do What U Want video.
I doubt I'll even watch it once and never look at it again like I did with Applause.

Her vocals... LORDT.
Go in. This is why vocals should be her main concern during a live performance and shitty choreo should be left to backup dancers when she has them.
[edit]: This performance helped remind me why I love ha. More of this less of the other shit please.
