I hope it's better than that Eyes Open song of hers.

Where is the lie though? Our faves can kiss album sales goodbye.
The only reason to watch. tbh.
Cher's tweets: #death
Has she ever not looked miserable?
Stole the words right out of my mouth. It's like her thing at this point.
So we have Taylor on Monday
Nicki's stuff on Tuesday
Azealia's video
and probably a bunch of Gaga news snippets here and there
things are starting to pick up
We just need Kesha to drop her new slayngle.
I thought Posh was a nice way to say stuck up? That's the vibe I always got from her. Wasn't she like least popular? Except for Scary maybe lol
He wishes the flame was his penis.
I guess it could be used that way, in slang terms. I don't think she was ever the most popular, but I liked her the most.
I love how Posh just poses and remains unbothered tbh.
Yes, but only in the US.
It's quite sexy tbh. He's aging mighty fine. *.*

The last two albums sold somewhere in the two million range in countries other than the US, do that's not completely true. She's no Shania but she's still managed to break out more than any other primarily country artist.
Posh was may fave too, Botty
Posh and Baby :3
appropriately side-eyeing every single one of your posts

Does Rihanna even move units tho!?
Like big numbers I'm talking.
She already has as many albums out as Britney doesn't she?
How far is she from Britney's sales?

Not even close. And it's likely she never will reach those numbers. She's just not a cultural phenomenon like Britney was in her prime.

And here's me thinking her releasing about 10 singles from each album might rack up some numbers
that, but dont you also factor piracy and such as well?
Pop music aint what it used to be

According to her stans, Rihanna's singles sell so much that they make up for her lack of album sales.
Or maybe I am just misinterpreting what they say.

Well to be fair, the music industry has significantly declined. Britney's first two albums is like 95% of her total sales.
I appreciate the Navy's realistic outlook.

When Lil' Wayne can move 1 million units in a single week I refuse to believe the reason a pop singer doesn't sell is due to the state of the industry.
The pop market (as in those who actually buy records) is still significantly bigger than the hip-hop market isn't it?
So I still don't get why Rihanna has so many singles and yet can't move albums...???

Sorry, but singles artists don't sell 24 million albums worldwide. She's had 6 studio releases which averages out to 4 million per album. That's not AMAZING (especially compared to Gaga who has about that amount with 2 albums, and Beyonce with 4), but nothing to scoff at.
Stale tea. Dismissed.
I already served the truth about this. A true singles artist is someone like Flo-Rida who's album sold 55k in it's opening week after having a huge single. And all of his albums sell like ass. Every one of Rihanna's albums have gon Platinum+ since A Girl Like Me.
You tried.
outlier.

Exactly what I was gonna say. Flo Rida is the true definition of a single artist. Rihanna sells albums. Sure her single success might not always translate to album sales, but it's not like she's alone. Tons of artists have hit singles with mediocre to bad album sales. Katy Perry's plethora of hits only helped Teenage Dream sell like 5.5 million worldwide.

If her singles still significantly outsell her albums then she's still a singles artist, sorry.
Oh that's the figure? I'd read a lot lower. Okay... guess my questioning wasn't quite as warranted as I thought. I'll retire to my quarters. For now.
EDIT: I lied. Okay so who has sold the most albums since Britney's reign. Is it Gaga?
