@ mkigz...ummm your points are invalid...Rihanna is a veteran, she's been in the game long enough to grab those titles...it took her a while to even get that far...it wasn't until her 3rd album that she really became popular...

Now as I was saying, for a BRAND NEW artist, Rita is doing it big...she has several titles under her belt and this is her 1st album...now who are u to predict whether or not she'll receive a #1 album here in the states? You have no control of that nor are u a prophet...she is becoming quite popular in the states, creating lots of buzz, and it also helps that she's under RocNation...Jay Z knows what he's doing...Rita is already on all the blogs, making lots of TV appearances, and doing lots of shows...her promo is on point...she def has a shot of having a #1 album in the U.S. (which nowadays doesn't take too much to achieve)...

Let's not forget, she may not be nearly as popular as Rihanna, but Ri Ri has NEVER had a #1 album in the states neither...and IF Rita doesn't make the #1 spot, i'm pretty sure she'll still do well in the long run...it's the total album sales that really count...

and btw, I never came for Rihanna, i'm actually a big Rihanna fan...i just told u not to come for Rita b/c she's making a mark for herself and she will be big...just WATCH!!
