While Coldplay‘s ‘Princess of China’ featuring pop princess Rihanna has fallen from reign in Billboard’s upper half, the impressive debut of her assisted Drake cut ‘Take Care’ (the title track from his #1 album) at number 9 and ‘We Found Love’ still at number 1 have kept the islander a mainstay in the top 20. As of the refreshing of the tally tomorrow, the cuts will be joined by a third party – ‘You Da One’ – as it blasts from 73-14.
Following the Barbadian’s triple chart check is comeback queen Christina Aguilera who plays assistant to two top 10 cuts as ‘Moves Like Jagger’ moves down to number 6 and her assistance on Flo Rida‘s ‘Good Feeling’ sits at #8.
Yet, while Adele‘s reign on the album charts top 10 just won’t let up, no other diva has dominated the Billboard charts like Katy Perry. Her album has struggled to hit double platinum, but her singles are double placing on singles chart with her latest ‘The One That Got Away’ now sitting in the top 10 (at #10). The sixth top 10 single from this album, the last album to accomplish such feat was Janet Jackson‘s ‘janet’ album in 1993-1994. And, with five #1 singles from one album, Perry not only sets a record for females, but also threatens to best a single’s record set by Janet’s pop icon brother Michael Jackson.
Looks like gal pals Rihanna and Katy have a new reason to cheer. Both album sales may fail, but Itune purchases prevail.

YASSS WE FOUND LOVE!!!

rihanna is dope!..:)
..Applebees Giving away $100 Giftcards http://t.co/tIgLVbC for a BlackFriday Deal..next 24hrs ONLY…i got 2..:)
that’s where rihanna reigns at the top of the charts. Why you all mad?
Let me know when she does all of this on the Billboard 200 !
I love that picture you guys are using!! my two queens on the top, Im loving it. but whats with the shade? Loud has sold 5.3million world wide and Teenage Dream has sold 4.2million world wide. its funny how you call that a fail but praise Nicki Minaj for her album sales when she has yet to reach 2 million
Good for you Rih, They look Great!
That comment was for Rihanna !
depth is the difference between a singles artists and Lp artists . If it is percieved that your full length has secrets to be revealed through repeat listening you will sell lps . if you have ffluffy stuff or have made spotty records in the past you will get single sales but no lp sales
dont kn0w why bloggers only look at u.s sales….rihanna is not just a singles artist…her albums sell….loud w.w has sold more and still is sellin more than born this way and 4 on global track chart…….loud sold like 39,000 copies this week and born this way sold 32,000 and 4 and teenage dream were nowhere to be found and loud was out longer than 4 and btw and idk if rihs album will be number one this week but chris.brit.bey. all went number one and have yet to go platium in the u.s unlike all rihs albums(excluding her first) which did not reach #1 ………and sidenote none of madonnas in the 80s or 90s debuted at number 1 except ray of light and some didnt ever go number 1 like erotica and bedtime stories
the music industry is dead.
Riri go gurl… Now lets wait til next week to find out how you gonna sail right to the top.. That reign just won’t let up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont think Christina has anything to do with that god awful Flo Rida song. I think they just used the audio from Somethings Got A Hold On Me that she sang for the Burlesque soundtrack/movie. I cant see her working with the Flo, hes just a generic singles artist who makes music for radio
I mean honestly, who would buy a Flo Rida cd?
I really think Rihanna can get her 1st #1 album next week. she only has competition from Drakes second week sales and Yelawolf’s new cd which was released the same day. I dont see Mary J making a big 1st week splash. but at the end of the day, a #1 album doesnt mean anything. Loud never went to #1 and it has sold more than every#1 album this year besides 21.
i love Rihanna and she is more of a global artist then a us artist. i cant stand Katy Perry because she always shouts at you on the choruses. but i still commend the success she has
it would be crazy if she had the #1 and #2 song on the charts….You Da One is very radio friendly…..WERK Ri
loud is outselling btw and 4!! so who cares what talk that talk sales in its first week, i wanna know how much is it gonna sale in the long run!! at the end of the day album sales are about final figures and singles are more about chart position.anyway we found love has been number one for 4 weeks!!and 3 weeks #1 worldwide!! hows beyawnce doing?? at least she debuted at number one!!right?;)
@JAMIR GURL TAKE OFF THAT AVI!! YOUR COVER IS BLOWN HUN!!!! THE NAVY HAS OFFICIALLY TOSSED YOUR ASS TO THE SHARKS!!! The nerve of this bish trying to infiltrate……
Nice to see Samatha giving some credit! Good job ho good job! Keep it up bum!
@jamir f*** off!! u posing like u a fan of rihanna
but i can bet you stan for bleachonce or lady caca
next>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I wanna know who really is buying these things. Think about it, if this girl is as popular as you stans would want us to think, dont you think that she would sale more? She would do the numbers that an Adele would do even more Gaga or at least come in with Beyonce’s lowest #1 numbers. Something smells here, I believe she has someone buying her stuff (singles) . There is no way this girl (with all this talent) should keep coming in like this..
With her singles doing so well I just can’t understand y her album aint doin big numbers in us
LOL @ the navy dragging @JAMIR
i dont know if he is a rih fan or pressed he changes his everyday, but its ok for rih fans to through a little shade at her….
@ Kerron
No b**** I have been a REAL rihanna fan for 5+ plus yrs. !
Yall b****** arent REAL yall are DELUSIONAL and only care about singles !
Black Friday will be hard to buy anything. Have any of you ever gone to a Black Friday sale? It’s awful. When something you want is not on the shelves try finding someone to go in the back to bring out more.
DON’T FALL FOR HER MEDUSA HEAD GAMES NAVY!!! SHE WAS ASKING A BEY FAN WHY BEYS FANSITE BEEN DOWN ALL DAY IN ANOTHER POST!! SHE WAS ON RECONNAISSANCE FOR THE HIVE!!!
AW THEY LOOKS SO CUTE IN THAT PIC

^^
Isn’t she selling millions of albums yearly, so what more do you want from her? Loud is still selling. Talk that talk is selling. ANd if she isn’t as popular as we stans want you to believe, why the hell are you guys talking about her day after day on here. I see you guys get soo upset when she makes any positive moves. Check out this post. When its listing her accomplishments, there is zero people in here congratulating. WHen there is a negative post about her, you all swarm in. SMH.
Christina Aguilera has something to do with Flo Rida? I thought it was Etta James sampling only?
From Wikipedia:
“A Rumored Part 2 with Christina Aguilera has leaked.It is unknown if this is official or will be on the album.”
Just a Rumor and remember its from Wikipedia…
LOL How Ironic that RIHANNA and KATY are friends and their careers mirror each other. Neither of those h*** can SANG or PERFORM, both rely on carefully crafted pop singles to sell and their singles sales > their album sales.
KATY/RIHANNA are the anti BEYONCE/GAGA….the low budget versions.
@ Rozel That’s simply because their faves are flopping.com not ONLY in the US but all OVA THE WORLD! Its hard to congratulate someone when their success is eclipsing all these LESSER GURLS they support!!! OH WELL!!
@Ride4Ciara
Very true!!!
BISH YOU RIDE FOR WHO!!! LMFAO!!!!!! AND UP IN HERE TALKING ABOUT SANGING?!?! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!! GURL GO LICK THE LINT OFF YOUR GURL’S BALLS AND GET THE F*** OUTTA HERE!!!
@ Legendtina4Life
I wasn’t impressed by how he sampled that song onto his. He just validates the “cut and paste” method.
I’ve never been a huge fan of his though. When I first heard Low, I was at Rage in West Hollywood and I was like “Damn this song is hot!” Then he came out with “Right Round” and I’m like “Damn this is even hotter!” Then he started coming out with that Dance Pop s*** and I’m like “Damn this is horrible!”
Anyway, Christina’s not the kind of artist who needs to feature or have a feature on any of her songs to make them #1 or a hit for that matter.
She’s had 11 solo songs crack the top 20 on the Hot 100 and all of her solo singles have cracked the top 50 on the Hot 100 and that’s a lot better than a lot of artists these days struggling to even crack the Hot 100.
Correction on my last post…
The only solo song of Christina’s that didn’t crack the Hot 100 was You Lost Me
wow i think Christina may actually own 2012. I’ll drink to that. More Christinas, Adeles in top 10, less of the keshas, rihannas etc
If it takes 3, 4 hit singles and a tour to sell your album then its not your fans/stans buyin them, its casual listeners. Non-artist like rihanna knows she has to stick to the current sound on d radio cus her navy isnt so strong after all. Her 1st week sales are never impressive (never mind debuting at no1, they still low) cus she hasnt proven herself meaning she’s only as good as her last hit. As with every artist the hits will stop coming and i can bet u she will be forgotten by majority of the public incl those that bought generic loud cus the radio wont be reminding them rih is doinng reigning pop music.
Im tellin yall ppl bought loud thinkin WFL is on it lol.
Why do people keep comparing Loud to albums that came out within in the last six months. Loud should have sold more it been on for a year. november 2010. and why did people purchase loud when the WFL single dropped. I think that was a set up by def jam too run those singles back to back . they got casual listeners going out buying the wrong CD. cause the hard core fans already got it. it’s not a bad idea on the marketing side once the customer notice the song they want isnt on the loud album they will turn around and purchase the new album as well. i saw it happen several times at work this week.
@T even if you compare the sales of Loud when it was 6 months old, it outesells them, the point here rihanna is constant with sales, many artists that score a #1 album and big first week sales drop fast, rihanna keeps her sales, that’s why she ends outselling them
HAPPY TURKEY!!!!!!!!
@whut,,,,,,,,preach, preack,,,,,,,,preach
love reading you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,!
theres a link on the post that asks
will rih ever get a #1 close to the last
comment, screen name voinko, and a link
and that link tells it all, theres ri, brit, gaga , bey
and that settles all of the debates about can riri sell
albums and if people don’t want to accept that shes selling
albums and singles than they can go and bump themselves
because from now on its not a debate for me when theres the global charts showing her selling albums . and since i have a good working
brain why debate with a sign biard about what i can read and ess in black and white. rihanna is charting and shes charting well and JOJO Said
it all and wrapped it up really cute and put a button on it. and oh another thing i don’t give a dam about fans who wants to jump SHIP because down below rihannas cruiseliner i nothing but SHARK infested waters that
will take your slack ass no place but deeper into the ABYSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@JOJO COSIGNS!
@MUSE,,,If music is dead for you than perhaps
you should consider making music and bring it
back to life, just saying. kind of remind me about
beauty which is in the eyes of the beholder,!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i know for sure that young artist like ri and katy or
doing something right katy made 0ver 40million and
rihanna made 29million and that is truely more than any one can make on any job degree or not. they made more than doctors, lawyers, police, surgeons, teachers and all people working almost any job out there. a nephew is at the top of his game in the medial fielf with years and years of schooling and did not make a milli. or no where close to it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and these artist might not ever be the highest paid but its great seeing them in the game. katy writes, play music instruments and rihanna a grounds up artist that have been to blessed to ever be stressed straight talk
@T,,,Because albums that came out since “Loud” Or the albums that should still be selling more than rihannas album loud It seems like your mind would say hey “T” Rihannas album came out last year in nov 2010 others who or compared came out after rihanna did they or the ones that should still be selling. And ask yourself why is gggb still selling and top ten in 14 countries, remember gggb is a r&b album not SINGLE A LBUM
You know that and you see that and you or just playing like you don’t.
rihannas singles sales have got many so screwed up because they can not do nothing but try and say shes a singles artist and her music is paper weights instead of substance well look at the top 500 songs and for some reason you can almost always find her name among the other greats. and the most telling sign of all about rihanna and album sales is on the global charts Achievenments there once again you can find rihannas name and if her music was forgettable than tell us how in the world did rihannas name find its way to the global charts ACHIEVENMENT LISTS and since shes a singles artist to, on global ALLTIME CHARTS How is it that rihanna have 5 songs SINGLES that have sold over 40million plus singles and rihanna is making it a point that if people wants to say shes a singles artist than shes giving them something they can feel and see and ltwyl when they update again will exceed 15x platium
why only girld has over 6million in sales and counting. You just can’t keep a good woman down no matter hiw you try and the more shes bashed the better its going to be because she will keep that spark that make her want to try and always better herself and keep learning and pushing the enevlope and whats wrong with that?
@christina is coming i just find it strange that you or always wearing yourself out on a rihanna post when it was gagas little monster who screwed around with xtina not the navy. The navy has never had a beef with xtina and i can only speak for myself and my circle of influence but i love christina i think christina is great.
@BEY KNIGHT,,,You calling rihanna a non artist is so funny bless your heart if rihanna is a non artist i would love to see what a artist is all about, hun. And just think rihanna is still learning and growing she have never said that she was through trying to better hr art she have never said that she was the best she have never pulle a weapon on any one to make them love her people just do. Rihannas navy and fans or growing at an alarming rate just ask the people who support her on youtube, look at how many views she have for “we found love” already over
50,335,678 i wonder who or these people whos following rihannas music on youtube????????????AND you say she will be forgotten because of GENERIC Music well while you might be right on all fronts with your though process perhaps to you rihannas music is forgettable and generic and while that might be the case than explain to the world why is it that rihannas “man down” music video has been viewd=ed by over 100million youtube views, and explain why rihanna and drakes music video has been viewed by over 200million views ckb over 80million youtube views see your argument has holes all the way hun, just saying. If rihannas was forgettable theres no way there would be that many viewerrs from all around the world love seeing her music videos. NOW THERS THE ONE THING THE PEOPLE WHO TRIES TO TALK RIHANNA TALENTED DOWN CAN’T EXPLAIN,,,,LMAO WITH OVER A BILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBES EXPLAIN THAT??????????????
What´s new? Two generic singles “artists”
@jojo
You clearly don´t know much about music industry. You said all of Madonna´s albums in the 90´s didn´t debut at #1 except for Ray of Light.
Well let me tell you Ray of Light debuted at #2 in the USA because Celine Dion was f****** reigning like few times any other artist has done. But what can I expect when you are a Rihanna fan??? Was that statement of yours a try to make it seem like Rihanna is similar to Madonna or something????? LOL
Receipts: Def Jam/IDJ pop diva Rihanna’s Talk That Talk should enter at #4, with between 180-200k, which compares favorably to the 207k she debuted with for last year’s Loud. Geffen’s Mary J. Blige, with My Life II… The Journey Continues (Act 1), the sequel to her 1994 album, should debut at #6 with 130-140k
KATY!!! u better werk it!!! every1 please support katy buy the one that got away!!!
LOL The singles Queens.
And no one takes KP’s “record” seriously. Cheap remixes and price reductions!? MJ did it the hard way gurl, with talent.
