Hot Shots: Rihanna Ends ’777′ Tour / Fails To Match Rival First Week Sales

 Hot Shots: Rihanna Ends 777 Tour  / Fails To Match Rival First Week Sales

She came. She drank. She conquered.

After what turned out be an ‘adventurous’ seven days, ROC rebel Rihanna’s ’777′ Tour finally came to an end last night in NYC.

Taking her lack luster show to Webster Hall, the Pop Princess enjoyed the company of long time mentors Jay Z, Tyty and mastermind Jay Brown with whom she travelled with on the week long tour.

Pics from the party girl below…

 Hot Shots: Rihanna Ends 777 Tour  / Fails To Match Rival First Week Sales

This coming chart week, after seven long years, Rihanna will land her first US #1 album with around 240-260k units.

Unimpressive, considering her ever mind blowing reign on a singles front, and considering it remains under the 300k region. A region, easily secured by personal bests scored by the likes Nicki Minaj (Pink Friday – 375,000 units), Lady GaGa (Born This Way- 662,000 units) and Beyonce (B’day – 541,000 units).

To put this into perspective, if ones was to take the highest first week sales figures scored by Riri’s closest rivals were tallied, it’s safe to say she would miss on a Top 5 position. Find out what we mean below:

1. Taylor Swift- ‘Red:‘ 1,208,000 units.

2. Lady GaGa – ‘Born This Way’ – 662,000 units.

3. Beyonce – ‘B’Day‘ – 541,000 units.

4. Nicki Minaj – ‘Pink Friday’ – 375,000 units.

5. Ciara – ‘The Evolution’- 338,000 units.

    Although this is pathetic, Samantha is right.
    The Navy are acting like Rihanna has sold 1,000,000 in the first week. If Beyonce sold 240k-260k they would be calling her a flop.

  • Good point Sam. If she’s such a big star how come she can never sell more than performers that sell less singles than her in debut week.

    I agree she’s done well for herself but reading this list really forced it home for me. Rihanna is a singles artists who sells album moderately well. She needs to step her game up.

    This is so childish but very very true. They’ve built her up as this huge megastar but she has the lowest first week sales out of all the contemporary girls. I didn’t know Ciara sold that much with Evolution and sure as hell didn’t realize that Rihanna had never sold anymore than 300k. I thought RR sold 400k but i was dearly mistaken.

And Bday… That was like 6 years ago what about Sasha Fierece and 4??? Didn’t Gaga sell that album for 67p on Amazon… Taylor Swift is the only valid one… She sold hers full price not 67p like Gaga… If your gonna bring an album down please use valid criticisms…

    • You clearly can’t read honey. They compared personal bests and the fact remains that even at HER best Rihanna can’t match the bests of the other girls. ALL of the albums mentioned were released in this decade so there is no excuse.
      If Rihanna was as big as you say she is, she’d be selling like B did in 06 but she’s not. Actually scratch that, her first week numbers can’t even hold a light to the shit that B got for 4.

        I feel bad for you ignorant suckasss! Cearly the time is different – with each year that passes album sales get lower, especially in urban music. If you want to talk personal best put it all out there. You put her in an uneven playing field… But u didn’t count those #1 singles, did u? Because nann n**** on that list is touching her.

      • You clearly dont understand the musical climate HONEY… While Rihanna’s opening sales are on the rise, everyone elses are on the fall, Nicki is about to FLOP this week, Beyonce had neither great album nor single succes with her last album, Ciara cannot get a single hit and Gaga, I mean does anyone even care for her anymore…

        The fact is, while Rihanna may never have the best opening week sales, over a long term she sells well while breaking singles records, while most of the artists listed cannot shift albums, like Ciara, or there multiple singles make little chart impact… Like Nicki or Beyonce… Musical times have changed, Even the greats cannot attain the musical sales they once did, Like old Xtina who scored her worst opening sales yet… Her sales get worse and worse but no comment is made…

        Urban sales arent what they used to be, ask Usher or Kelly Rowland, Ne Yo or Ciara….

    I mean, can you taste the LAMENESS of this word for a second?????

    .

    I am sure the album will top the GLOBAL chart tho, with over 500.000 in the first week. And go to sell GLOBALLY more than 6 million, just like ‘LOUD’.

    Because Rihanna is a GLOBAL superstar, unlike some of these 12-year-old c***ry singers you mentioned. ***caugh*** Tayor Swift ***caugh***

  • Pressed as heck. It doesn’t matter what Rihanna’s first week sales are the haters would complain anyway.

    haters are just bitter and angry trying to hold on to US first week sales like that’s gonna help the album sell. Rihanna is now tied with a legend, Madonna and her name will be up there with legends for having the most #1 singles and it makes your blood boil. Poor them while their fav is getting worst over the years, Rihanna is getting better. Lets talk about what Ciara is doing now because we all know the trick can’t sell jack,all she knows how to do is flop. Why is she even mentioned with Rihanna? Get that Rihanna buys her singles crap outta here,if it was that easy so many artists would have just as much #1s

Rihanna needs some tips from Taylor Swift and if Rihanna gets it she want keep that spot cause she is coming too her end. Rihanna’s head has gotten way too big and it’s time for her to really get a dose of reality… She still is not talented, popularity is not talent and she is the poster child for that statement… IMAGE..

      Well TRAILER Swift has been selling her CD for $5.00 and that will continue through this weekend for BLACK FRIDAY sells I’m sure.

      I think that it’s sick how the “music & media industry MONOPOLY” work to elevate some artists and push others to the side. folks talk about 1ST WEEK SELLS NUMBERS but lets just be honest. If the “music & media industry MONOPOLY” promotes you and your CD constantly and it is released in EVERY KNOWN COUNTRY ON THE SAME DAY then yes, it will sell big numbers worldwide. Not all artists receive that same chance!

      pssss….WTF kind of talent does TRAILER Swift have? 0_o ….Screwing and telling the world via song & a banjo?

Yet, she’s championed as this phenomenal artist. Everytime she comes on TV I have the same thought: “I don’t get it.”

  • Thank Goodness For Insight,,,By People In The Know,,,,
    And not Just By People who’s mind’s are Cloudy with hate for Rih,,,

    On paper, Rihanna releasing her seventh album in seven years would suggest a quantity-over-quality work ethic that’s bound to wear thin. But on “Unapologetic,” Rihanna proves once again that she can set and often raise the bar for modern pop music.

    Report this comment

  • From People with Music Knowledge,,,,
    Amping up on urban, dubstep-leaning R&B and scaling back on the often awkward sex jams that populated the second half of 2011′s “Talk That Talk,” “Unapologetic” is Rihanna’s most confident, emotionally resonant work since 2009′s “Rated R.”

    Report this comment

  • From People with Music Knowledge,,,
    There’s hard-hitting club songs (“Phresh Out The Runway,” “Pour It Up,” the Ginuwine-sampling “Jump”), feel-good dance jams (David Guetta-produced “Right Now,” Chris Brown duet “Nobody’s Business”) and a surprising abundance of heartfelt ballads (lead single “Diamonds,” “Stay” featuring Mikky Ekko, the confessional suite “Love Without Tragedy/Mother Mary” and bonus track “Half Of Me”),,,

    These songs
    all of which showcase Rihanna’s voice in ways the listener hasn’t heard before. Like previous Rihanna projects, “Unapologetic” is destined to crank out at least five singles over the next 12 months (or until it’s time for the next album, anyway).

  • From People With Music Knowledge,,,
    1. Phresh Out The Runway – “How could you be so hood but you’re so fuckin’ pop? How could you be so fun and sound like you’re selling rocks?” Rihanna quotes one of her doubting peers in this swaggering, gritty club banger produced by The-Dream and David Guetta. “Unapologetic” is all about shaking up expectations, so opening with a straight-up hip-hop track produced by the biggest name in EDM quickly sets the tone.

    Report this comment

  • From People With Music Knowledge,,,
    2. Diamonds
    As written by dance-pop torch singer du jour Sia Furler, “Diamonds” finds Rihanna doing one of her throatiest, most impassioned vocals to date (and one that seems to be channeling Sia herself) on this inspirational pop ballad. And as a strategic shift from recent singles like “Talk That Talk” and “Cockiness,” “Diamonds” further positions Rihanna in new stylistic categories, lest she settle on one format for too long.

    3. Numb (Featuring Eminem) – The last time Rihanna teamed with Eminem, it was on the massive, emotional “Love The Way You Lie.” This time around, the duo only has the club on its mind on this slow-grinding, Middle Eastern-flavored party track, which opens with Rihanna shrugging, “Ecstasy in the air / I don’t care / Can’t tell me nothin.’”

    4. Pour It Up – It’s not just the dudes who can flex their money and love of strippers. Rihanna turns her often-racy Twitter feed into an irresistible, Mike WiLL-produced banger for the ladies, chanting “Pour it up / pour it up / watch it all fall out” over a hypnotic beat and handclaps.Take note, 2 Chainz, Juicy J and the like – Rihanna’s coming after your territory.

    6. Jump – Sure, “Gangnam Style” is the horse-dance craze of 2012, but Ginuwine’s “Pony” has been having quite the cultural renaissance this year, thanks to its key role in the summer blockbuster “Magic Mike” and now this dubstep-ified update from Rihanna. “Jump” is an answer song of sorts to Ginuwine’s 90s classic, adding new verses on top of the existing chorus, which now erupts in a wall-shaking Skrillex-worthy breakdown. “You think I give a damn / but you know who I am / I don’t go around chasing no dude,” Rihanna reassures her conquest.

    7. Right Now (Feat. David Guetta) – Perhaps the only song that adheres to the expected formula carved out by “Loud” and “Talk That Talk,” “Right Now” is a straightforward, four-on-the-floor feel-good anthem for the clubs. Thematically identical and musically similar to Ne-Yo and Calvin Harris’ “Let’s Go,” “Right Now” is exactly what you’d expect from the latest Rihanna-Guetta team-up, and nothing more.

Y’all claim she’s the biggest thing since Jesus but people like Lil Wayne, Taylor Swift, Usher, and 50 cent have had bigger opening weeks than her. Keep in mind they did this when she was in her supposed peak. Just accept that Rihanna is shining like a diamond and your faves are not as big as you would like people to think.

    8. What Now – An unexpectedly vulnerable ballad from Rihanna that finds her acknowledging “this lump in my throat” before letting loose on an epic chorus that hits harder than anything she’s done in years. An emotional highlight on an album filled with moments of resonance in its second half.

    9. Stay (Feat. Mikky Ekko) – As premiered on last week’s “Saturday Night Live,” “Stay” is Rihanna at her most intimate – a piano-backed duet with Brooklyn singer-performance artist Mikky Ekko with a 70s AM-radio melody that recalls Elton John or Billy Joel. If this is Rihanna indulging her adult-contemporary side, she couldn’t have picked a stronger ballad to demonstrate it.

    10. Nobody’s Business (Feat. Chris Brown) – If “Nobody’s Business” featured anyone but Chris Brown, it would still be celebrated as a wonderfully catchy throwback to early-90s club music. But because it’s a duet in which the tumultuous lovers proclaim “you’ll always be the one I want to come home to” and “you’ll always be my baby” for the world to hear, it makes the beyond-complicated circumstances of their history impossible to ignore. Judge for yourself just try to resist the song’s many Michael Jackson-worthy charms.

    11. Love Without Tragedy / Mother Mary – Coming right after “Nobody’s Business,” it’s hard to think that the first half of this seven-minute two-parter is channeling anyone but Chris Brown when Rihanna sings, “You took the best years of my life / I took the best years of your life / Felt love struck me with a knife / I pray that love don’t strike twice.” But just before things get any more somber, the song takes a confessional shift when the “Mother Mary” part kicks in, with Rihanna softly singing, “Mother Mary / I swear I’m gonna change / Mr. Jesus, I’d love to be a queen / But I’m from the left side of an island / Never thought this many people would even know my name.” A deeply personal song sold by Rihanna’s uplifting vocal.

    12. Get It Over With – Taking the tempo down a notch, this dreamy track from James Fauntleroy and Brian Kennedy, who co-wrote half of 2009′s “Rated R,” is a chilled-out, reflective song that finds Rihanna “wondering why you keep thundering / won’t you just fuckin’ rain / and get it over with.”

    13. No Love Allowed – Much in the same way that 2010′s “Man Down” saw Rihanna paying tribute to her Barbados heritage with a reggae torch song, “No Love Allowed” takes a similar approach over a bubbly, dubbed-out groove from producer No I.D. “Broken heart was the case / go’on and put him away / He’s the only one one one / I let get the best of me,” she cries to the love police.

    14. Lost In Paradise – Ending things on a somber-but-hopeful note, this bouncy StarGate track finds Rihanna clouded by past heartbreak when she sings, “It may be wrong but it feels right / All my fears are gone tonight / I’m so lost in paradise.” What could otherwise be a forgettable midtempo ballad is saved by frequent tempo drops and interjections of “Bass slap!”

    also she’s running long. first week is irrelevant. on the long say 1/2 of her follows are really getting into the full album over time not just singles. perhaps a mil people get cought by radio and grab the album. alltogether you know what you get in numbers.

    Happy thanksgiving everyone!!!!! Sam please STFU. Stop being so bitter. First week sales are not everything. You worship some of the biggest flops known to the industry yet have the nerve to try and drag Rih when she is amongst the very few who can actually still sale. She is a slow runner she always sales in the end and stop trying to start Stan wars ….It’s pathetic. Anyway on a positive note am I the only one pumped about this year and next year for music?Rih Rih, Bey and Gaga all at the same time? So many concerts to go too. *Fist pumps*

    Never mind all that. Sales don’t equate great music. Can we just pay attention to the fact te album is terrible? If the hoe got a number 1 album and sold millions with GOOD music then I would be very impressed…

        I can comment anywhere I want. It’s a blog. Not a Rihanna site. Let me remind you, bitch that I have given rihanna her credit where needed. The album is terrible. Sales do NOT mean great music. The only reason she’s reaching number 1 on billboard 200 is becuz Diamonds is a SMASH right now and sheer luck cuz she definitely couldn’t get a number 1 album before to save her dear life. And I will agree it’s a good song. The rest of the album though? SHIT. And that’s my opinion. And if most of the navy thinks so, it’s not too far from the truth. Obviously only one mad is the commenters replying. Pressed much? FOH.

      • i didn’t say you shouldn’t comment. and i’m questioning the album too. it’s not as good as people think it is. even diamonds was crap right from the start. but it’s the mega interesting buzz these days and they do sound and psyche for alota the audiences and that works.

    Rihanna album outsell most of the number ones that year so what’s ur point!? Those artist can’t touch her success now or world wide!!! It’s ok you will deal…

  • Why are these bitches (Navy, Hive, etc….) pressed? Its like, Rihanna is getting her first #1 album and 12 #1 in one week so can we congratulate her and move on? Yes, her personal best thus far doesn’t match some people’s worst so lets just keep it moving.

    Report this comment

  • Bottom line is this, Sam has nothing else to say now that she will have a no. 1, so he will resort to sale comparisons, which in the end is pathetic. How about Nicki’s Romans Reloaded sales? Sam picks and choses facts to throw out without painting the whole picture.

    But that makes him a good blogger. A pathetic, obsessive human, but a good blogger.

    Get your coins, Sam. Get your coins.

    It is not about first week sales, unless you can do over a million and most black acts do not do that. Madonna, Sade etc have had huge albums NOT DEBUT AT NUMBER 1. EVEN IN THE UK, JESSIE J MEGA SELLING DEBUT only went in at number 2. Then, Rita ORA goes to number 1 with 40 k in one week, Cher lloyd ( xfactor usa today ) debuted at number 4 with 64k in her first week. Who sold more between Rita Ora and Cher lloyd. Xtina stripped debuted at number 3, with first week sales bigger than most number ones. And what? And WW – unapologetic will outsell Taylor, Beyonce, Nicki etc. So there!

    She won’t let up.

    • Thank you. Trey Songz, Jill Scott (although I love her), T-Pain etc are all people who had #1 albums that didn’t even strike gold. I would never gloat about a #1 album that didn’t move any units!!!

    November 22, 2012 at 12:50 pm

    Sam you tried it. You mentioned all the roc nation people, hoping it will bounce on Flop 35 year old Rita Ora. But the only man that counts is that white man: HE IS HER BOSS! HE is the president of Island Def Jam and he has been working at that label for more than a decade,. His name is Steven Bartles and HE TRAVELLED WITH RIH ON THE 777 TOUR. Fuck jay z and roc nation. She does not need them, look at those n**** hanging off her nuts, because NO ONE ON THEIR LABEL IS A HIT. Rihanna is mega A list, she has the President of her label ( who is a white, educated man ) traveling on tour with her. Only A list can get that.

    So fall back. ROC nation did not master mind shit. I have noticed you never ever mention Def jam., Always trying to make it a roc nation thing. If she was signed to Roc nation, she would be like Rita Ora and Bridget kelly. SHE IS ON DEF JAM AND THE TEAM AT DEF JAM – including former CEO LA RIED and the late Shakir stewart MADE HER. ROC NATION ARE JUST HER REPS. No doubt, as she becomes a woman, she will fire them and hire white men with BRAINS to manage her. Just like the white man standing next to her. I know it was his idea to do the tour. He is white and educated and we all know, educated white men are better than hood goons, like the three standing near her.

  • As we can see, many of those rivals hit big with the sophomore album. My point is…

    If in the next hour One Direction guys promise to show their dang-a-lang to their followers in exchange of 300,000 units of their sophomore album sold and a 2nd week at #1, Rih-Rih will be second bananas AGAIN.

    The Navel better voodoo for their life. Y’all ain’t there yet.

    I like some of Rihanna songs but I will not want to see her live from what I seen of her live performances I would feel like I wasted money sorry but its my opinion she is not a good live entertainer unlike Beyonce and Ciara but yo her new album is not good I like 1 or two songs.

    Report this comment

  • Are u serious Sam?? Such a hater! Rihanna at least has a consistency when it comes to album sales..and her fan base grew from album to albums. She may not be a mega first week seller such as Taylor or Gaga but she still managed to put out platinum plus albums (asides Music of the Sun) where is your favorite? Kelly Rowland = major flop, Ciara = on the verge of getting drop if her next album doesn’t live up to expectation; since the last two bombs worst than Baghdad. No one dare to do 1 album per year without fear of over exposure since Elvis, Frank Sinatra and the Beatles and that was generations ago. Rihanna progress musically each albums and hate her or love her…she’s here to stay!!! Unapologetic out now…cop that !!!

  • Sam this post was pathetic. Comparing her to past album sales as far back as Ciara’s The Evolution? Times have changed musically and how people buy music has now changed. I dont really see Ciara selling those numbers anymore. I dont see her getting another #1 album. What is unimpressive is the numbers that Basic Instinct brought in, or even Fantasy Ride. I’ve seen a lot of artists on Ri’s level who have sold less but have gotten a number 1 album, especially in those quiet weeks.
    Also like you said Sam she is stronger in her single sales than her album sales, so the Unapologetic sales are impressive and is an achievement!!!!!!!!

    Report this comment

  • Everyone’s doing a lot of research but the BOTTOM LINE is everyone listed above except Ciara is still doing good. Bey AND Rihanna both have good careers whether they fans want to admit it about the other or not. When it comes to sales and commercial success they are comepetitive but when it comes to talent, everyone knows Beyonce has no competition from Rihanna in that department.
