For any familiar with Rihanna‘s career, it’s a well known fact that the singer has never enjoyed ‘top heavy’ sales upon the release of new albums.
Instead, by way of single releases and carefully calculated media onslaughts, her numbers tend to grow with time- oft outselling artists who launch more favorably than her, but fail to push as consistently as she does.
Now, the folks over at Hits Daily Double have shared pre-release label forecasts for a number of select albums, indicating what Fenty’s label believe her new LP ‘Unapologetic‘ will debut with in its launch week.
Numbers below…
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Misha B performs Rihanna‘s ‘Diamonds‘:
Yes, in what would mark her greatest first week numbers since her 2005 debut, Fenty is projected to move 275,000 units.
If accurate, it means the album will best its 2011 predecessor by 77,000 units and 2010’s ‘Loud’ which currently boasts her highest first week digits with an impressive 207k moved upon launching on November 12th of that year.
It should be noted that HDD’s ‘official’ sales predictions won’t emerge until after the first day of release, giving a far more accurate sales picture.
So, considering ‘Talk That Talk‘ only moved 198,000 copies despite the benefit of ‘We Found Love‘s chart run, do you think she’s capable of shifting 275k this time around?
Rihanna’s a bigger star than Beyonce right?
Is that why she’s NEVER sold more than Bey first week. Even Bey’s worst first week sales slashed and slayed Rihanna’s best by 100k.
4 sold 300k first week and Loud did 200k. THE SHAME!
And then 4 ceased to sell another unit besides first week, when Rihanna’s went to sell 2MM.
T H E S H A M E !
bey was pregos at that time so she had to slow down while little ms NO TALENT was not
Oh please ‘4’ was No.1 for 2 weeks? Does Rihanna even have a No.1 album…hmmm and the fact that Bey had a No.1 album with no top 10 hit is amazing. Its cause Bey actually had music on her album not euro pop dance s***.
Rihanna Says……
I,m not concerned with people
Who prey on the wealth of their fellow man
Cause they only want to know you, enroll you
Only for the things ya had
I just think its so sad
Knock, Knock, Who’s there : It’s “Diamonds”
Wanting to stay in the top ten and from there to the top…

This article is a f****** lie! 🙂 🙂
Where is keyshia?
Rishitta aint even got a video out for that single 🙂 🙂
SAM, I CAN NOT!! THEY WERE CALLING HDD OUT FOR THEIR FUCKERY ON TWITTER LASTNITE 🙂 🙂
Well, if I look at the figures, I see
GGGB selling more than B’Day WW
LOUD selling more than I am…SF WW
Talk That Talk selling more than 4 WW
Oh and Rihanna selling more singles than Beyonce WW and also getting more VEVO views than Beyonce. If we even had to look at radion airplay plus Pandora, we would see Rihanna also getting more radion and Pandora play. I think that is enough for me to confidently state that Rihanna is a bigger star than Beyonce.
@BEYONCE’S WEAVE Thanks I am breadking it down
City slicker style for the Lames You buy their asses Books
send them to school and they eat the books!!!!!
DEAD @ Loud selling more than IASF. There’s no motherfuck way, b****. IASF sold in US alone 1.4kk more than LOUD; 300k more in Brazil; almost 200k more in Japan. In other words, in only 3 countries, IASF sold 2kk more than Loud. Keep delusional!!!
Gilberto, how many copies did I am…Sasha Fierce sell in Europe?
Beyonce always sells more than Rihanna in US, that is not something new, we already knew that.
…well since the U.S. is the largest, most important and most dominate music market in the world…I’d say Bey outselling her here is a lot more impressive than what Rihanna sells abroad. The world is watching what’s going on in the U.S. music scene, they’re not watching Europe or the U.K. And then there’s Bey’s wealth and overall creative control compared to Rihanna’s. The bigger star has the bigger say and the bigger bank.
All of these factors tell us who is TRULY the bigger star! 😀
Actually, worldwide figures is what matters, not just US. And Rihanna sells better than Beyonce worldwide.
@Beyonce’s Weave
“Gilberto, how many copies did I am…Sasha Fierce sell in Europe?”
The last report of IASF sales in Europe was back in early 2011, it sold around 2.5kk.
“Actually, worldwide figures is what matters, not just US. And Rihanna sells better than Beyonce worldwide.”
Rihanna sells better in Europe, especially in UK. In Japan, Brazil, US, she doesn’t even come close to Beyoncé. In Oceania and Africa, both have similiar sales.
The US and Japan are the 1st and 2nd largest music markets in the world, and Beyonce outperforms Rihanna in both places. Think about that.
However, if we counted Europe as a continent then it all changes,
Europe > US > Japan.
Remember, Europe is a continent and Rihanna performs better than Beyonce in Europe.
Beyonce is only relevant in the US and maybe Brazil, her albums and singles sales prove this, everywhere else, she struggles.
Rihanna mayb bigger than Bey if you go by figures that true. Bur Bey has quality vocals and quality music.. sadly Riri is pure quantity.. But why argue about.. the more money riri make more funds for Roc nation and who owns that.. say noo more.
Why is Beyonce being brought up?? This about Rihanna! “4” underperformed big time!! TTT slayed
@JD Why do the haters bash Rihanna so hard
for working Her ass off. Beyonce’s name is in the mix Because Beyonce has a WORTHLESS fan club called
the Bey Hive who prides themselves on trying to BELITTLE all of the Other Artists In the Industry and RIHANNA more then any of the Others Because Rihanna has mopped the dang floor with Beyonce’s ass and didn’t even bust a Sweat,,,Son. Now take yo lame ass on the last Rihanna post where Shes wearing the Daisy Dukes and go on that post and ask RICHANBLACK Why they are TRIPPIN like the Ass Wipe they are and others BHIVE
Praising Her /him for Getting the Navy told off OKAY….
There’s always some of you QUESTIONING WHAT THE NAVY IS DOING WHEN IN FACT YOU ALL SHOWS YA ASSES ON A DAILY AND NO ONE IS QUESTIONING YA MOTIVES BECAUSE WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE HATE, ENVY, JEALOUSLY AND PISSED OFF MOOD
RIHANNA SEEMS TO KEEP YA ASSES IN EFFORTLESS….
you have to remember bro Beyonce first 3 albums came out before 2008 when the music business started to suffer from low sales its hard for any artist to even sell 1 million units and guess what she does that with even more and if 4 and loud came out the same time and rihanna sold more that should tell you something plus rihanna has more number ones in european countries than beyoncy rihanna also has more number ones in the US sold more singles and rihanna sold more in europe in both albums and singles .
no
cause ya’ll hood hive will be bootlegging her s*** with ya’ll fan in denial selves
she has over 26 million twitter followers. why does she always have these small numbers?
i’m happy for Bruno he deserves all the success. true talent
Ugh we know her twitter followers is Killing
yo hateful ass and If not a single Twitter follower buys anything Her twitter followers will still climb and that is good in many ways Just ask Gaga,,,
And if you want to get serious about It, Why Did She sell
504,00 in her first week with Talk That Talk, and even at that
I wonder how is that possible when You and the likes of yo ass or always talking that smack about Rihanna can’s sing good can’t perform good and can’t dance…
PS
If Rihanna is SUPPOSED to be all of the things you and the likes of you dislike then,,, why are you here in the first place.
@Uhg you know them Twitter followers helps to make things like this happen,,,
http://www.mediatraffic.de/tracks.htm
@Ugh forgive Me for getting Your screen name wrong,,,,,
Old News But still yet a Blast from the Pass,,,,
http://www.mediatraffic.de/tracks-2007.htm
Where did her album sell 504,000 first week???
@Lax
With re-union of Chris & Rihanna you can bet that Chris fans will buy because they like Rihanna. But it sad to say that the Navy don’t feel the same way about buying Chris’s songs. Most of the Navy really hate Chris but it not stopping Rihanna for loving him.
Chris fans & Teambreezy better not buy this b****** CD so she can get #1 album. S*** the way the Navy talk s*** about Chris and the hate they have for him. The Navy talk big s*** about never buying Chris music. all this on twitter. Yes we like Rihanna but we are not dumb.
@James,,, Many navy Officers has grown up also
right along with Chris and Rih and to Me the Hate is going to come either way Just as long as You, Mob, Zania and a few Others are cordial than I will make it a point to do the same BECAUSE to tell you the truth I am Over It ,,,I say let them get on with their Lives. And like I have said before the more We Pour Gas on the Fire the bigger It will get… I am loving both of their Music was Pissed when It Happened But I have Turned the page a long time ago. I even told XYZ That I was finished, Life is to short,,,
PS Many will support Rih & Chris and many want I say let them stay in their closed world nobody gives a care.
@Wendy no one and i mean not anyone of
Rihanna’s Navy could Ever talk as much Shyt as Blue Kid and XYZ so yo ass can put a sock in it, sugar!
@Lax
Thank you for that. I bough tickets for Rihanna’s concert for myself and my sister next year here in Brooklyn NY
@Wendy/Teambreezy
Please grow up. Life is to short and yours will pass you without you even knowing it. Live your life

I don’t see why not…
WFL AINT EVEN DO THAT & IT WAS #1 SO WHY WOULD THIS ALBUM???? Y’ALL ARE STUPID
http://rihannalounge.com/displayimage.php?pid=113523&fullsize=1
Naw, she’ll pull in about 180k again. #2 debut…
Or #3
Nicki coming & Keyshia too 🙂
The more the Merrier!!!
http://www.mediatraffic.de/previous2.htm
gooood 😀
i still can’t deal with that album cover though.
i hate it also, not my cup of tea but i love diamonds tho.
No I’m not feeling the cover also. With that one eye s*** again makes it awfuly scary. Diamonds I really like.
I will be buying. Love or hate her she does good music. Can’t wait to get this album.
She doesn´t do anything…
And luv the album cover.
Hell no!!!
Her first week sales should be that amount with the amount of twitter followers, her fan base, and promo her team does for her.
Really B**** ?
best believe 30% of those twitter followers were generated in DJ technology Labs , the same goes to 40% of gag’s twitter followers !!!
u can’t measure her fanbase accurately and u know it. cuz believe it or not , big proportion of the consumers who buy albums are casual fans , not stans , most stans don’t buy s*** , they just lie about buying 10 copies of someone’s album , but in reality , they can’t even afford buying the damn album booklet !!! that’s why they are on blogs 24/7 , they are kids ” mostly” and they don’t make their money , they only TALK !
Me, Myself and I has never stated or
wrote down how many copies I was going to buy
and I take OFFENSE to any B****** trying to assume
what and how I am going to Support Rihanna and Her Efforts. And even if She did not go Number 1 with Loud
She still sold Her ass off and as compared to all of them When Billboard names Her #2 of the top Artists behind Adele BYTCHESSSSSS THAT IS THE BUSINESS….
So now we know what and how the Navy
will support Rih, Well keep that thought
in mind, the best is yet to come, Deery.
And what ever the Navy did it’s clear that
according to the facts and figures as
they or recorded by Global Chart Archives
Talk That Talk,,,,,moved in excess of 3.2
million and had some Singles that also
did very well. Keep right on trying to read the
PASLMS of Her Navy because We just like
Rih is in it to win it….
PS
Many who dropped around the same time as
Rih did only wished they could catch Her mega
star ass, case n point Beyonce & Rita O…
Jay Jay Rihanna is the Social Networking Queen and
that bugs so many folk, I wonder why. Could it be because
Rihanna is a black chick and she is the most populat Musician dead or alive is that what send you and others into a tail spin.
If we questioned Other big girsl so to say the Question is why isn’t any of the other black artist as Soaially Popular as Rihanna is…
I don’t think this is valid tbh. Not even the predictions based on one-day sales are 100% accurate, so it’s impossible to trust the predictions that are published a month before the album’s release! I’ll wait until the album is actually out.
That said, I think it’s going to do well if she promotes this time around. Maybe 210-220k, her best opening week. But probably not #1. Maybe top 3.
RIHANNA will be fine , and no one take those predictions seriously and i don’t think too much about first week sales , they just measure how much your BUZZ is strong , nothing else , cuz some can have good first week sales , but then their albums spend centuries collecting dust on some supermarket’s shelf.
Rihanna always has buzz, noone questions that 😉 Although realistically there’s no chance the album will debut with over 250k, it will go on to be certified platinum and maybe even double platinum, if they don’t mess the era up like they did with ‘TTT’
What’s more interesting is how high Taylor Swift’s are predicted to be. If she does even more she might break Gaga’s record. It wouldn’t surprise me.
Yeah I saw that there’s no telling what’s going to
happen , we know something is cooking I suppose We will have to wait to see what Jumps out of the Hat…So much new Beautiful Music dropping this is good as always,,, And We know, the show must go on.
Good for her.
I think she’s gonna top the album chart this year. i dont feel like there’s any competition to stop her :/
_/ , almost everyone considered to put an album out in the same week/month as her ! how is that not a f*****’ competition ?!
despite being a navy , in US , i predict TAYLOR swift will be the big winner (#1) ! not RIH ! RIH is #1 WW and her albums always have charts-longevity potential !!!
LOL WHAT ABOUT ONE DIRECTION? LMFAO R**** S SUPER CRAP
Would every one close their eyes I’m going to
spray that Bug spray, I see ,,,I am Blue,,,,,In the House….
As long as Rihanna is in the race!!!!
Diamonds is off to s great start.
SHE WILL DEBUT AT NUMBER 3
We will gladly accept what We get, Deery.
We are so happy that Rih is in it , in the
first place, Rih is a hard working Chick…
B**** B ASHAME OF UR GHETTO BROKE ASS

All Rih need to do at this point in Her

Beyonce at Her Best…. Get It Bey…

@Blue and beyonce is ashamed of yo

Rihanna Talk That Talk
World 3,000,000
US 981,600
Uk 850,000
Beyonce “4″
World 2,100,000
Us 1,169,000
Uk 472,421
PS
Jay says it best,,,,Numbers don’t lie…
Ur an idiot and I don’t have time for idiotic time 4 surpass TTT US sale
We talking first week sale a year sale sucker AHASHAHHAHAHAHAH TIME TO LAUGH DIL FIRST WEEK SALE: 317,000K BDAY FIRST WEEK SALE: 541.000K SASHA FIERCE FIRST WEEK SALE: 482.000K 4 FIRST WEEK SALE: 310.000K MY QUEEN NEVER DEBUT WITH 200K SALE………
4 has now sold 840k in the uk and TTT have 1.007m
Blue if you don’t have the time, then tell Me
why in the Hell or you here?
Blue I know it’s hard to give credit where credit is
due and that my Deery Is why you and yo Generals
keeps trying to shoot Rih down from Her climb to
the top of the charts. All of the proof is right in front
of you and you still act a dam fool! With Rihannas
many Accomplishments.
Why is it that yo ass will believe the numbers
for Bey and not believe the numbers for Rih?
We know that all of the BHive wants Bey at the
top all of the time but yall forgot that God is the
one in the blessing business and He can Bless
Rihanna if he want to and He has been Blessing
Rih and many Others right along with Beyonce.
And just so you’d know no amount of bad talking
Rih is going to stop progress, but u know that
already, now don’t ya.
As long as She Debut.
How is One Direction gonna out sell Rihanna. That is shameful. Anyway Rihanna always ends on a high in the U.S and Worldwide so who cares how she starts because she always goes platinum.
It’s okay if they out sell Rih that will just help
Rih & Her navy to work harder and smarter!
We are going to see who out sells who because
there is so many dropping around the same time and its great.
Ill believe it, when I see it. And Kesha probably wont do over 100, 000. Pop female artists like Kesha, Rihanna and Katy never debut with high first week sales. Because theyre fans only by singles n droves, not albums. All 3 are Queen of singles. Not albums and lmao @ somebody always dropping albums during November and December, trying to benefit from the holiday sales lmao. What? Scary h***, scared to drop albums Jan – August lmao. That sh*t still gonna flop, like the last one lmaoooo. Because we all know who comes bac next year and my bish isnt scared of dropping albums anytime! Shes always going #1! Whether its February or October! #2013…THE YEAR OF BEYONCE
Rihanna’s highest selling album, GGGB, was released when? Yeah I thought so….
#YouTriedItBitch
@DIGGER BEY,,,,Things like….
Going #1 World Wide With “Talk That Talk.
Things Like having Her album & a single to be #1
two times in the same year in the UK….
Things like having 5 # 1’s in consecutive years like Elvis
did years ago.
Things like selling 198,000 in the US Her first week in the
US and then go on and sell 504,000 and go #1 WW With
“Talk”
AND,,,,,,Thrust this is something Realllllllly Huge for
Rihanna since YO ASS and the likes of you tries to cut Rih off at every path with yo hate, slander and lies to try and somehow make Beyonce seem or look bigger then Rihanna!!!!!!!
Love how passionate the bey hive is in supporting Rih so passionately, in everything she does.
DIGGER BEY,,, We know about Beyonce and Her
run with the charts, but its clear that Bey hasn’t had a Hit in
quite a while and I know it Pisses you and yo generals off to see Rihanna pulling further and further ahead Of Beyonce in sells, popularity, Awards, Accomplishments and Rihannas
His-To-Rih making Features,,,,Deery
DIGGER,,,,Rih who’s supposed to be some how scarred of the power of Beyonce, well i’ll tell you Rihanna might not be as big in yo books but you can bet that RIHANNA is up for the task and shes ready to tap dance on any one who’s doing the same thing Shes doing and that is making music and it don’t matter a dam if she drops oin christmas day as long as she drops,,,,, Its not Rihanna’s fault that beyonce has only dropped 4 albums and 6 reloaded & remixed that is Beyonce’s Business and Rihanna dropping New Music sure in the f** Is Rihanna, Her Team and the Navy’s Business and YO ASSES AND YO HATEFUL ASS BHIVE WILL DEAL….OR SQUEALL!!!!!!
@DIGGER bEY That might be true in some ways but not true in all of the ways Deery We by just as many albums as beyonce fand buy and the proof is in the sells for 2011 that has gone by already, Rihanna sold for 2011
#1 Adele 15.3 “21”
#2 Gaga 5.4 Fame (Monster)
#5 Rihanna 3.4 Loud
#10 Beyonce 2.1 “4”
#18 Rihanna 1.7 Talk…
Therefore Stop lying to ya dam self and face the truth
before Mr Lies Kick you in yo ass for being so Hateful
I realize that the truth Hurts you and Ya Generals from the BHive but why is it so hard to see and believe that Rihanna can sell Albums? Is it just to dam much for Rihanna to be selling Albums & Singles and yall can’t stand that at all.

This right here, has me rolling on the floor.
You guys are so hang up on rihanna having a number 1 album on the US chart..there are countless artist who got number 1 album and have’t even hit platinum HELL even gold but unlike Riri she has longevity and people check for her music over time which matters in the long run js
Longevity? Girl……………….
Rihanna is known STRICTLY for her style & music
She has no record label, no other outside ventures other than a perfume and a flop reality show which is part of her 360
We see w/ Queen Britney that ppl can own a star’s career
Where will she be left when she wants to retire?
She won’t leave a legacy!
Welllllllll thus far it’s going on 7 years
and counting…
once again she is using this whole Chris Brown drama to sell records.
YES DEF JAM KNOWS HOW TO PROMOTE A H**
They sure in the Hell do and that Deery is
why Beyonce’s Ass Is so Huge Of a Artist
& Rihanna HAS STEPPED outside the box on Bey’s Ass, ha, ha, ha,
Rih know how to throw down with Her
Lyrical Delivery, Rih could no doubt
Rap Her ass off if She Wanted to, Rude boy
& S&M aNYBODY… For the Grown & S***…
While Beyonce is in NURSERY SCHOOL
Songs and working that Ass Like a STRIPPER…
What else is there?
CEE why not….She and Chris Has History and they understand
each other, and even thought they have gone through
a lot they are still Friends,,,,,The white Media is Bagging Back pay close ATTENTION here lately start watxhing I mean they might start up going after Chris or Her again
But it seem they have lossed Steam here lately,,, Perhaps them doing Birthday Cake together have quiet things down some, I hope It has because its their Personal life not Ours,,,
And folks like you who love to dig in shyt to make it stink or lame and loves trouble, Son…
Rihanna keeps doing the dang thing and it have
got the Bey’s humming a tune with Bitterness…
AHASHAHHAHAHAHAH TIME TO LAUGH DIL FIRST WEEK SALE: 317,000K BDAY FIRST WEEK SALE: 541.000K SASHA FIERCE FIRST WEEK SALE: 482.000K 4 FIRST WEEK SALE: 310.000K MY QUEEN NEVER DEBUT WITH 200K SALE………BEYONCE S ICONIC.
Now how many moons ago was By Day, Son?
Rihanna first week World wide sales 504,000 and if Rihanna
is all of those colorful names yo ass calls Her then I wonder how did Rihanna even Place on that chart in the first place,,,,
PS
Blue this shows who was , what in these different Years and Just so you’d know ….There is a calendar with Rihanna on it, clikc at the bottom where it says Year-end-sales
Rihanna is Gracing a calendar for the year of 2007,,,,lol
http://www.mediatraffic.de/previous.htm
B****, 4 sold Over 150K WW In theFIRSTDAY. imagine how much she sold in the first week. AND She debuted at number one in 25+ countries. RIH RIH COULD NEVER.
4 sold 854k first week now STFU
Bytche this in the year end tally i don’t give a fat Phuck
what you say and how you turn your lips up the FINAL
year End sells of “4” Bytches,,,,Beyonce “4″
BEYONCE’S “4”
World 2,100,000
Us 1,169,000
Uk 472,421
PS
Tell Me why you bytches MAD, though?
King bey but what did “4” do at the end of the year,
Deery? What?
It is great to know that even though, Bey is well established and Bey’s BHive always down each and everything Rih does Its really Refreshing to see DESPERATION come and Light on the BHIVE’S Shoulders…
Rih Says……
They keep evil thoughts in their hearts (what you dont know)
You can,t let them knock your hustle
Not letting them know how much you struggle
They turn green with envy when your on top!!!!!
She can! Diamonds is receiving great reviews from CREDIBLE sources…. However if Def Jam doesn’t start promoting it could very well not match that prediction.
This album seems like it’s going to have more of a genuine emotional feel to it and less of the arrogance-oozing Talk That Talk.
I’m still in favour of the album dropping next year, but alas my opinion doesn’t really count.
I am trusting and praying that Rih
got this She’s not on Tour and She
is in a Very Different Place in Her
Life Now. I hope she promotes the
Hound Dog Hell Out Of This Ablum!
I would be surprised if Rihanna did get those kind of sales, but anything seems possible with Itunes. People land at #1 mysteriously all the time on the singles chart (Flo Rida, PSY, etc). It won’t be long before the album chart has that same unpredictability. Rihanna managing to reach her highest first week total, despite the fact that she hasn’t scored a 10 weeek #1 (the way she did for TTT) seems about right in 2012.
I’d be so curious to see a breakdown though of the digital + physical sale purchases. If 275K happens, then I predict 205K will be from digital slaes. If it turns out this way, then that’s good news for Rihanna!
I must say that lately I’m starting to think that MOST stans would be better off getting their favs albums from stores to see the best results. The charting of releases coming out later in the year will be more telling though.
http://www.thepagewithroyalkev.com
Yep that’s what I say go and buy the albums from the stores, I never buy albums on Itunes only singles.
I really can care less. Rihanna is a longevity artist, always has been. If she debuted with 180k I’ll be fine because she’s going to release singles that’s going to stay on radio for months and allows her to sell millions of albums worldwide instead of dropping off the charts quickly.
That’s how Rihanna is. Longevity > Huge Sales at once
@ The BHive, haters, lames and loosers I left you some MESSAGES for food for thought on the post where Misha .. Covers Rihanna ..lead single “Diamonds” feel
free to read and get Enlighten,,,Loves,,, Tihis will Take Roots and spread like a running vine up the charts Its just a Feeling I have got….
Rihanna has some of the best looking Legs in the Game, long, lean and
just perfect for WRAPPING around Her Loves Back,,,,,Smiling To Myself,,,,

@Blue Why don’t you grow up and less make BLOGGGING fun instead of Tit for Tat and stupid cursing all of the time, I
know I clowns also but dam less try and take it to the wire without loosing out Minds, Loves…
I don’t have time for idiotic talks now STFU
Rih Says……about the haters……
They not there for you
They dont care for you

In what universe would 275k be record-breaking? For many artists, that number would be enough to start worrying…
Anyway…Rihanna has major competition.
On the same day she’s releasing her album, Kid Rock, AC/DC, Coldplay, Phillip Phillips, Keyshia Cole and Pitbull are releasing theirs. If I was vindictive enough, I might pick up ALL of those albums that week…except hers. But it’s not quite *that* serious. I’ll definitely make a point to scoop up at least one of her competitors albums that week though.

Rih Says…..About the Haters…..
Ya see they smile in your face and make ya think they down
Then they turn against you when your not around
Its just jealousy and dishonesty
So hold on to your sanity and keep right on doing you…
Bytche we love competition, the more the better!
And you are the Definition of a HATER LOooool #Pressed
CZARD you r always on Rih post talking shyt…
yep I will be buying Keyshia cole
I will support Keshia and Rih,,,and some
Others that I like,,,
Like are u serious?? how can u predict something like that?? if scientist with all that technology cant seem to get the weather right how can u possibly predict album sales , thats a bunch of bull , first of all she rihanna is not an artist that opens up with those kinda numbers on the first week, and she has had better first singles on her previous albums with much more success to hopefully give her that #1 album and she has failed miserably… only time will tell but NO stop with these stupid predictions!!
To the people saying this isn’t record breaking, i have to say that comprehension is key.
This will be record breaking for RIHANNA!Because she’s never sold that much.
how on earth can you expect it to crack 200k? TTT barely cracked 200k and that had a #1 hit before the release. alot of people have gone off rihanna in the past year.
I predict 150-180k.
TTT had no promotion besides an Ellen interview where she didn’t even perform.
#UMad?
She was on her loud tour, and a tour is the biggest promo that any act could ask for. Plus if I recall she was in the magazines/ and on the logs every other day around that time (which is PR aka Promo). She also did viral videos “Road to TTT” which believe it or not is promo. X Factor performance (Promo), One of the biggest hits of 2011 = Promo.
JJFan please understand that Ri’s fans are mainly internet based so why would her label waste money putting her all over TV to promote her album when the majority of the Navy stay on the internet and on her Twitter page?
I can’t believe you guys can’t see how marketing works
Totally agree @Black China, between blog presence and radioairplay she had plenty promo.
Heeeey Bytches Year End Sales Form 2008
http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums-2008.htm
Check it Out Bytches,,,,,
Everybody and their dog know that Rih
was on tour out of the country when Her album TTT dropped and there are the links to what Rih and all of them did at the end of each year and I know that Rih can sell Albums and another thing She sold 198,000 copies don’t yo hateful asses know that Rih could have bought enough albums to by pass her last sells If She thought She had something to Prove.
@Black China JJFAN Means in the US
Every one know that Tour is Promos right on But People are used to seeing the artist on 106 & Park , the morning show You know sort of like Beyonce promotes and the way brandy is doing right noiw,,,, Ant at the same time I know what u r saying, Love!
@BHive, Haters, Lames and Loosers,,,,Don’t get Me wrong If
You will notice I try Very Hard to not find Myself saying that Rihanna
is good, better or best but what I do say all of the time off and on is this,,,
Rihanna Deserves a Chance to be Good in Her Career just like all of the Other Artist that is out there Working their Asses off. Its just that the differences comes up when
Many of Her Haters don’t want to Give Her a Chance to do good, They are always saying She Can’t, Want, She is not as Good as Beyonce is and Bey was further ahead when She was Rihannas Age…. Well that might be But Beyonce started in 2003 and Rihanna came two years later and if Beyonce came out 9 years ago that would Make Beyonce be 22 years of age and at 22 years old , BEYONCE DID
NOT Have as many Accomplishments and His-to-Rih as much as Rihanna has
If that be the case All one would have to do is take the age and look at the Cnharts and Beyonce’s Impact on them and theres nothing to say that Beyonce was near as Popular and had sold as much as Rihanna has now sold, no way hosea…If Bey started in 2003 which She would have been 22 and 2004 Bey 23 years of age and 2005 beyonce would have been 24 years Young…. and for the years of 2003-2004-2005 is well Documented and there for all to see, read and share and as you all know Thje Truth Will Set Yo Asses Free….
Now look up Beyonce’s Achievenments for 2003, 2004 and 2005 the year Lil Ms Sunshine Came on the Scenes,,,,, I mean Rihanna is far from being the Best artist But Rih Isn’t at the top and She dam sure isn’t at the bottom All I can say to
Rihanna’s Many HATERS IS THIS,,,,,,Jay Picked Her And all I got say about that is
Blame Beyonce’s Honey for Picking/pulling that “Ace”…
Jay is One of the Luckiest men Ever, He Married One Of the Hottest Chicks in the game and then He has Trained, Taught, and Guided The SUCCESSFUL CAREERS OF ONE OF THE BIGGEST MEGA INTERNATIONA ARTIST, EVER,,,,,,RIHANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNAAA!
Beyonce in Action and Rihanna keep right on Being INSPIRED by Bey….

Global Charts Year End Sells For 2009…
http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums-2009.htm
Alonzo and She is still Paid….
All o her albums made it to the top
ten and they all has gone Platium,
low life.
*in my Linda Perry voice*
It’s popcorn music. The album will only have 2-3 songs that their fans will download from itunes and never buy the album itself.
Anywho, how can you predict an albums first week sales performance a whole month before its release? I get how you can do it with Taylor Swift because all the promo songs she’s released leading up to her new album have all debuted in the top 10 on the hot 100 but Rihannas Diamonds has sat still between #8 and #10 on itunes and hasn’t even cracked the top 10 on the Hot 100 and its already been out a few weeks. This new album won’t fare any different or better than her previous just because of the holidays.
That site only did that because there was a trend in her first week sales between rated r and talk that talk. Rated r sold 180k, loud 207k, talk that talk 198k, they’re predicting this one will outdo Louds first week by a landslide. B*******
Global Charts Year Ending Sells For 2011,,,,
http://www.mediatraffic.de/albums-2011.htm
I think it’s possible. I mean, she’s a household name at this point. Then again, we all said that last year when “Talk That Talk” was released. I think she’ll do over 200K though.
Ya’ll Know Taylor is about to Swoop in , and Steal Ya Girl’s number One.
Even though that’s a low FW, Good for Rih. She’s never been an album seller. ESPECIALLY First week.
Global Charts Sells For 2010….

Rihanna Talk That Talk
World 3,000,000
US 981,600
Uk 850,000
Beyonce “4″

@KINGBEY….
Rihanna Total is 4.8 million Talk
Beyonce Total is 3.7 million “4”
Then ,,,, the singles,,,,
N****, 4- R&B Album
TTT-FLOP POP/URBAN.
Which will sell better?
AND Why don’t you s***** ass stans ever compare Beyonce’s Old albums, Which out sold all 6 of rihannas BTW, TO RIHANNA’S S***** ALBUMS? like i said, Taylor is going to steal ya girl’s number one, and you’re scared of that. She’ll never be number One. DEAL.
Come on guys. Nobody is taking into account that nickis album is released on the same day. Unfortunately people that would ri’s album but Stan for nicki are going to buy nicki’s instead. Don’t think she will debut that high, but as other readers were saying. With multiple singles on the charts for months that will help the album in the long run. ⚓
Who the f*** is Nicki???
LMFAAAOOOO. Ohhh Nicki Minaj sorry she just slipped my mind
I’m not a nicki fan either. Just sayin
EXACTLY! I BEEEEEN SAYING THIS
IT WILL GO
1. Keyshia (210k)
2. Nicki (200k)
3. Taylor (190k)
4. Rihanna (180k)
5. 1 direction (95k)
6. AC/DC (90k)
7. Kelly Clarkson (70k)
@FAF I love Keyshia just much as I love Rihanna and Nicki but she will not outsell them you seen brandys numbers right what makes you think she’ll sell over 200k ugly h**?
Check the statistics! Keyshia lowest debut without a single on BBHot100 back in 2010 was 180k!
She has debuted with over 300k in sales before!
Let’s not, QUEEN!
Rihanna will sell 990,000 her first week world wide…
Subtract about 900,000 , and it’ll be accurate.
Um you cant forcast first week sales based on nothing other than a hunch. Thts not forcasting, thats guessing. F****** idiots.
Theres no way Rihanna will sell more than 200k opening week. This b******* was posted just to say “SHE DIDNT SELL WHAT SHE WAS FORCAST TO SELL!!!!!!!!!! OMG SHES A FLOP!”
Show me the receipts. What is this based on? Who is making such a bold prediction??
Anyone whos followed Rihanna should expect this new album to sell somewhere between 175k- 225k and thats based on MY OPINION so i guess thats my FORCAST. Because you know, meteorologists wake up in the morning and just guess the weather and thats the forcast for this week
DEAD
“This b******* was posted just to say “SHE DIDNT SELL WHAT SHE WAS FORCAST TO SELL!!!!!!!!!! OMG SHES A FLOP!””
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!! TGJ is pathetic and predictable!
They can Huff & Puff all they want because the best
is still yet to come, bytches!
Mark my words, she won’t even come close to those predictions. Sound-scan will get the final word. Rihanna isn’t confident enough to release her album anytime of the year. She stays releasing all her albums around November period. Taylor is about to snatch all wigs .
Not confident enough to release 4 albums in a row during the busiest and most competitive season? You are clearly mentally ill. Its people whos album is DONE READY TO GO that wait until The spring that arent confident. Gurl bye with our ratchet ass
Its busy, however Rihanna knows that’s the only time her records will see high #s
Nicki released RR in April & Still slayed first week 🙂 🙂 🙂
If Rihanna wanted a number 1 album she’d get it Chris Brown’s & Trey songs lastest CD went number 1 selling under 160k…so please hush
With no competition 🙂

And no amount of your name calling and nasety ass vile comments is going to stop or slow Rihanna down from her part that she is “Playing To The Hilts In The Game”, Bastards, Suckers, ass holes, naysayers, and Doubters,,,,

I Know that Beyonce works very hard and has been working non stop almost since she got started and that is good, I also know that Rihanna who has not been in the Industry not even half as long as Beyonce has been in it Is still holding Her own. And no matter how Beyonce’s BHive uses all kinds of “S***** TATICS” to try and bring Rihanna’s career goals down to the ground it isn’t working BHive, Never has and never will From This Day Forward… There’s just to many Other Artists who are working their asses off ALSO, not just BEYONCE’S ASS…
but at the end of the day, BEYONCE IS THE BETTER ARTIST AND $HITS ON EVERYONE ELSE #THATSAFACT
Rich Beyonce don’t Crap on no one and nothing but Her stool in Her Mansion, Deery!
Proud of Rihanna and what Shes Stands for because All of Us who enjoy the BLOGGIN EXPERIENCE here at That Grape Know that I do not go into ATTACK MODE
UNLESS they are going over board with their b/s and we all tripps from time to time It’s the Nature Of the Blogging Beast….
Call me a conspiracy theorist but people who run the music industry are cooking up these numbers, all of a sudden white artists are pulling these numbers? Taylor swift last 2 albums have pulled close to a million and I have been researching and following her and she is pushed by the establishment no doubt…her singles debut at number 1,2 on itunes in an instant(on release day ALL HER SINGLES!) , people always go back to the argument “Black,latino people” dont support their artists which is b*******! white people do illegal downloads too and they also I found have RnB hip/hop artists on their playlists on rotation…so WTF?! and oh Rihanna! b**** that illuminati cover is way too obvious with all the scribbling and leaving out the left eye..we know you are a devil worshipper.
Taylor is doing good because Her fans supports
Her Taylor is getting more then Lip service from Her
Fans and Just like the Hateful a/h who follows this site they are waiting and looking for leaks so they can Illegal download Rih’s music and still talk a hundred miles of shyt.
And another thing as bad as Rihanna is talked about on many blogs It’s only by faith that She sells as much as she does in the Us. Her sells are by far much Bigger Over seas.
TAYLOR SWIFT IS COMING!!!
WATCH HER FLY BY YOUR FAVS ALBUMS SALES!!!
So predicted 900,000! Though last album Taylor was predicted 850,000 and sold over a million.
We’ll see.. though the album has leaked…
I think Taylor is coming for S****** Spears’ record. I see it selling over 1.1kk because she made a cheap deal with Papa John’s Pizza. They’re selling her PHYSICAL album for less than $5 if you order their pizza. And I clearly see the white trash people buying this s***. I know all this sounds fake, but it’s the damn truth. She’s pathetic, fake and desperate. She’s doing tricks to make her wack ass records look better. Unfortunately, nothing can save her from her boring fake-ass-country music. She just put a banjo on her generic dance songs and call this s*** as “country”. I can’t.
All the whtie girls do it.
Lady gaga sold hers for 1$ on amazon, GAVE AWAY a PYSHICAL and a DIGITAL copy if you bought cell phones at from many major brands, and sold them 2 for 1 at many major retailers.
Without these gimmicks their sales would be like
300k for Taylor and 200k for Gaga.
@Gilberto Taylor’s last album sold over 1 million and no cut price deals.
Also, if that pizza deal is true.,. how many people do you think are gonna order their pizza just to get a album for $5? a few thousand at the most.
Benron (King Of The F****** Navy) not sure why you’re bringing race into this.. I guess you’ve a problem with white girls.
_/
@Taylor Fan I am happy for Taylor and please don’t start sounding off like many of these mean spirited people See don’t brag Just be happy and fight them ALL RIGHT BACK THAT TRIES TO TELL YOU ANY DIFFERENT.
PS
Be glad that Beyonce isn’t dropping right about now because if She was then That BHive would be calling Taylor all sorts of nasety names like they do Rihanna from time to time…
@Lax. I supose so, I’m just so happy Taylor’s new album coming out, and cant wait to see it do well:)
Yeah, Taylor gets called a lot of nasty names from some of these stans on here.
Gilberto sounds really nasty!
@TAYLOR S #1 FAN Yes Gilberto shows their
ass each and every time they get a chance, they
are just Pissy because they want Beyonce to be the only WINNER, EVER.
She pushed 190k with the biggest hit of her career and a top 10 hit promo and controversy…… Diamonds is STILL in the top 20 I’m not sure
I work for one of the major record labels and yesterday I had to list ALL of the albums coming out in November (as I have to do every month, I hate it, it takes forever), but anyway, Rihanna has got STRONG competition from the Rock bands (And not no indie rock bands, I’m talking Areosmith and Coldplay) who actually tend to sell better than pop, so I still don’t know about that number 1 album or 275k in sales.
However if the good folks down at Billboard continue to rig the charts the way they have been doing over the last month or so, then then Miss Fenty might be in with a chance.
Oh and a quick side note, all of those pictures of her at the studio are FAKE, that album will be sitting on my desk in 2 weeks time for sure, and no artists is still recording 2 weeks before the listening party and press releases are sent out. The Chris Brown stuff is FAKE, how comes before all of the album promo there were NO pictures of the pair even though they admit to having seen each other, but as soon as Rih’s album is due to drop there are pictures and videos all over the place, don’t buy into the hype my friends, support the REAL!
lmao
B**** you just soud like a pressed fan of some other artist ! stfu with your nonsense and have several seats….
sound*
LMAO
@HOTSTUFF Thats what i’m talking
about we have to keep right on doing
our job of schooling the Lessors!!!!!!!!
what dept you work in ,,,,,I’m in A&R
@RICHANDBLACK11 I work in PR and Marketing!
And to the Navy…. don’t be mad, I’m just stating facts! I’m sory that this upsets you, but the truth is the truth.
And @Lax, you need to find a REAL job opposed to “schooling the Lessors”. OKAY…. Thanks 🙂
@Black China, I do have a Job and part of it is Schooling the lessors, Love. It helps me pass the time away and it’s soooooooo relaxing…
When’s the baby due?
Will the tour be cancelled because of her pregnancy?
Why does she not smile when she leaves the recording studio?
and sam you need to take that video of misha singing diamonds this isn’t her post! lol
@MY HIP,,,,I heard that!
SAM
PLEASE STOP PUSHING THIS WANABEE ILLUMINATI X FACTOR MESS
SHES FAKER THAN NICKI’S BOOTY PADS
ROTF,,,,LMAO.
Umm, this is just plain out guessing. We need to see how well “Diamonds” performs and how she promotes her stuff before cooking up numbers. We’ll see I guess.
@MC,,,,so true…
I think they knwo something we dont, maybe she will open the Ama’s? Go to Xfactor, do interviews, we never know what she will do. Diamonds is projected to go top 10 next week, its at 11 already, it got a boost last time after the video, but Rihanna clearly doesen’t want ti to get a boost.
WFL was #1 for 10 weeks (biggest hit of her career); she did mag covers, YouTube (Road to TTT) promo, twitter & Facebook promo, interviews, X-factor, Loud tour exposure (promo for TTT), etc however TTT sold 198k 1st week so…..I really am doubting 275k debut for this album. She seems more disorganized and all over the place than she did during TTT era. How can you expect her to sell more than Loud’s debut with so little promo and much confusion? We’ll see, but I highly doubt it. Even if she goes on AMA’s or whatever, it will only push her singles not her album…..
Girl, that was all within a year, and WFL went number one like 2 weeks vefore #WFL came out. Loudtour promo was for Loud and in the U.K. only, facebook promo only convinces fans to buy an album (which they should be doing anyway).
She could quite easily flop, she was super clumsy last era and its only getting worse. So far she has one mag cover, and one song. She is asking to flop. If she goes on a radio tour and a talk show tour Im sure she could sell 225k, she was been a media force all year and she is gaining new fans.
I do believe she will flop this era, honestly. Your second paragraph summarized my sentiments. Will you be buying her album or will you wait to see if it caries stuff that you like?
Um.. are you serious, Im the KING OF THE NAVY, I will be buying it when it is released at midnight after the AMA’S (hopefully she’ll perform).
I am going to support her either way, if you didn’t like Triumphant would you just not buy Mariah’s album altogether?
I like Triumphant so its a bad example lol. I will support Mimi either way, but she has never released a bad album even though MOIA sounded rushed and unfinished she had some really good songs in there (Angels Cry, H.A.T.E.U, I wanna know what love it, Inseparable, etc). So all in all, I would support her just cause she’s my fave but also because she makes good music (for the most part) even in her worst eras.
Also, when she puts her loudtour DVD out on dec.4/8thand is making a deluxe album edition where you can buy both for like 20$, people who went ot the tour will wanna buy that so her sales will increase, don’t doubt her but dont get your hopes up either.
I lost hope for Rihanna after the release of LOUD and then the release of TTT, so if she doesn’t get it right (musically) this time around, I believe she will enter the point of no return.
Its a smart choice to hold the Loud DVD until the release of her Deluxe edition (boosting sales) because I know a lot of the Navi (including you) were TRUSTING, LUSTING, STARVING after it. 😉 I hope its everything your looking in the Dvd.
BUY IT! You will love it, she got MC’S vocal coach and was giving vocals that day! And will you buy unapologetic if you like the songs?
IF its like Rater R then yes, if not then I won’t buy it. 😉
I mean the DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She got Mc’s vocal coach!
oh
Yes or no?
Nah, I’ll save my money for albums that are coming out soon….
I see how it is.
Given the way Rihanna pays Sam’s bills, everyday, I’m sure Sam drives the latest Cadillac Escalade SUV and is Bill Gates neighbor! Yes, Rihanna is the only reason this blog is!!!!!!
lol exactly
rotf,,,lol!!!
No way!
This time she doesn´t even have a hit single (compared to her previous albums). Which proves again people only want to hear some easy danceable songs from Rihanna (well from her producers)
And what has this world become when such a bland artist can sell a million or nearly like twice (or more, I don´t remember) first week? Yeah I´m talking about Taylor Swift. Thanks to the kids I know, something like BackStreet Boys and all that s***. But still. Couldn´t it be an uber talented artist? I know we had Gaga doing it but it´s not enough. So many people should be doing better numbers (and Rihanna, Katy and Kesha just dissapear). People please support real talent
Boy, she is gfoing in the top 10 next week, the same happend with WFL, it went number #1 after the video hush immature child.
Although I don’t really understand how they can make these sales forecasts before the album is even dropped, I think those sales are possible. Rihanna has had a string of less successful singles than she’s used to (Cake peaked at 24, TTT at 31, WHYB at 5, and Diamonds is currently at 11). Maybe these singles have caused people to want her albums, not just her singles. I don’t know, I guess we’ll find out.
Oh, and btw…people need to get off this whole B vs. Ri. That is damn beaten horse. They both doin’ their own thang, and doin it well.
I find this prediction very innacurate. R******’s new album is like a month away from its release, so it’s almost impossible to say how much it’ll sell. Based on R******’s history on Hot 200, I think it’ll sell around 150k to 200k at best. Talk That Flop which had We Found Love and she came from Loud era, didn’t sell 200k. So how this new flop album will sell close to 300K? Hell no! I see S*** coming! Diarrheamonds is flopping in US like s***. The only way of it selling that well is if DefJam is preparing a discount for it. Like I said, there is something rotten about this fake ass story. We’d better open up our eyes and see the tricks that DefScam will do to fake R******’s numbers.
They use past sales figures, current single figures plus other factors. From that, they then most likely use a regression analysis plus other statistical methods to forecast such sales. This is not uncommon, it is used in all industries including, especially the manufacturing industry so as to not overproduce…etc.
That said, I think tha
I think that prediction is way too high.
This album will not sell any more than 190k. TTT had WFL and only sold 198k, “diamonds” isnt nearly as big as WFL was.
what makes them think this will sell more than LOUD first week??
also, rihanna has lost alot of fans this year and alot of people are getting tired of her.
i think it will sell 160-180k
Girl only hating ass f*** like you are getting tired of her…. Since when does ssomeone that people are tired of get a number 1 single in the UK with her latest single….hmmmm? And she’s bout to get her 23 rd top ten hit in the US honey stay pressed
B****, are you retarded? truth tea (take a sip) is talking about USA sales. U-S-A. Why did you bring UK??? I can’t. I love to see rihtards bringing UK’s sales, because they know it’s the only place that her numbers aren’t THAT pathetic. BYE!
P.S. Stay on topic, basic weak ass b****!
Gilberto have you taken yo MEDS TODAY, HON?
The UK COUNTS, Deery and if you don’t believe Me
themn ask Beyonce, adele, britney, adele, RIhanna…and others.
@TRUTH TEA,,,,,Follow the Links and that global
chart so you can see what happened at the end of
each year and wait with the rest of your Low Life Friends to get Bytche SLAPPPED By Rih and Her Navy as soon as Her New Music Drops!!!!!
If She sells that much her first week I’d be so happy….xoxo
And wtf Taylor swifts numbers make everyone elses look pathetic
Remember Justin biebers sales predictions 500k he sold like 370k that’s Justin biebers rihanna will be lucky to scrape 200k and she’ll come in at #2 or #3
your avi… really B****!!
loooooOOOL
Anyon
Kind of like Beyonce’s Dad perdicted that Bey’s
I Am Sasha fierce where Her dad Perdicted she’s sell about 1 million or rather 750-1 million and She sold 480 something less the She did With BDay….Its hard to tell about these things,,,
I’ll wait and see.
something tells me this is a labels move trying to push the album
I see a discount coming…
discounts are always good.
According to Chart News @chartnews ON TWITTER:
BEYONCE:
US album sales: @Beyonce, “Dangerously In Love” 4,846,664/ “B’Day” 3,300,000/ “I…Am Sasha Fierce” 2,900,000/ “4” 2,225 (1,259,523)
TOTAL U.S SALES: 12,306,187
RIHANNA:
US album sales: “Music of The Sun” 594,000/ “Girl Like Me” 1,330,000/ “Good Girl Gone Bad” 2,700,000/ “Rated R” 1,017,000/ “Loud” 1,954 (1,687,270)/ “Talk That Talk” 3,002 (1,017,918) by @Rihanna.
TOTAL U.S ALBUM SALES: 8,346,188
“4” STILL OUTSOLD “TTT”.
Both pathetic for supposed superstars with at least 4 albums each
And Rihanna’s GGGB is still selling and many of you would lie if the truth was choking your ass to death.
PS,,
The RIAA tells another truth to and about the sellls, bytces…
this is not the 90’s …
RG2, Beyoncé’s IASF sales are innacurate. According to SoundScan, IASF has officially sold 2,988,375 in late December of 2011. It’s still selling over 1k per week, so it should be around 3,030,000 by now.
Beyoncé’s catalog is so strong. IASF is selling like 100k per year in US!!! I want her to release an anniversary collection for DIL so it can sell over 5kk in US.

I have to keep this 100%, the US Navy don’t really like to buy Riri’s albums, and with Nicki coming out in the same week, I doubt Rihanna will see another #1. She will however go on to scratch platinum and maybe double platinum if Island DefJam is not as shady this time as they were with Talk That Talk (which should have sold 4 to 5 million IMO if they had let her handle her single choices herself and let her release a video for TTT – Single). The US navy does this all the time, she opens with so so numbers but goes on to sell platinum or double platinum, I don’t expect anything different this time around.
The International Navy on the other hand are the ones to rely on for Riri. They ensure her album goes on to sell 3 million plus. And if the album is good, I’m expecting to see LOUD figures thanks to the international navy. Rihanna always has good music on her albums, I cant wait to get my copy.
I disagree, U.S. navy bring it, the only place that does better is the U.k and thats because of her constant promo/discounts there. She is always unseen and unpromoted here.
Cosign You Beyonce’s weave,,,,these scabs always
trying to raise Beyonce’s numbers with their lying asses.
call me whatever , but i hate US NAVY , they are BS for real !! they only Liked LOUd and GGGB !! basic fans ➡
Shoutouts to you guys whoo actually purchase albums instead of just stannin to start debates because you have no life if you really appreciate an artist buy their music why is taylor swift selling 900k and rihanna is barely touchin 300k yet she has all these stand why did beyonce struggle to sell a platinum album when shes alwys sold multiplatinum albums..because ppl are becoming lazy its not the economy thats b******* ppl r becoing lazy so the music is getting lazy theres no uality because why would record companies take so much time for us if we wont invest in it i love that brandy album she took time and really gave us a banger and she supposed to be sellin barely 70k smh its a shame what we as a ppl have become we can take 10 dollars to buy cigarettes alcohol weed and all this other stuff bt we cant support real artist we gotta do better
Wellllllllll According to this,,,,,
http://www.inquisitr.com/334244/rihanna-is-the-most-illegally-downloaded-musician/
Im crying real tears at who ya’ll think is going to beat Rihanna to number one.
Nicki Minaj? With a stale re-release? Her single has not even made ti too the hot 100, it sucks and everyone hates it, if nobody bought her album the first time no one will do it a second. Her fans will take their limp wrist and somehow manage to buy all the new songs, not the album.
Keyshia Cole? This girls label thinks she will only sell 98k, if your label only thinks you would sell 98k then you’re pretty much doomed.
Kid RocK? POSSIBLY, but nobody is checking for him, he has no promo or hit and I basically forgot about his existance. His label predicts like 180k
Ab/DC. No promo, no single, in fact they’re not even RELEASING AN ALBUM. Its a LIFE AUDIO TAPE FROM A TOUR OF AUSTRALIA in 2009, it will flop so hard.
The charts will look like this.
1-3 Rihanna, Taylor Swift and One direction (in whichever order)
4.) Kid Rock
8.) Keyshia Cole
21.) Nicki Minaj
50.) AB/DC
68,790.) Beyonce
You forgot Kelly Clarkson’s Greatest Hits and you are underestimating Kid Rock’s and AC/DC.
ABWhoever is releasing an australlian tour audio and Kid rock’s last album sold 180k. He has been forgotten. As for Kelly and Nicki? Re-released/ Greatest hits albums don’t usually sell THAT well. I predict Kelly: 110k and Nicki: 50k. What do you project for Rih?
Considering no promo and absolute quietness coming from Rihanna&Co. I predict 150k-185k. Here is my reasoning:
1. Nothing new in terms of music (usual change in hair color, style, talk about CB, controversy-her and CB getting back together-, mag. covers-Vogue- ,etc)
2. We have only heard one song (without video)
3. People are more concerned with her personal life (CB) than they are about he music
4. No promo — (other than CB and Vogue)
5. No clear direction of music (another TTT)
6. Too much controversy around her (people tired of her antics — at least I am —)
7. Where is the track-list for this album?
8. How is this album different than any of her previous albums (is is emotional and honest like RR or trash like TTT?)
——————-
I really think she’ll flop.
Trust me MC, this album will be very emotional I can feel it, She tweeted some lyrics and its going to be another Rated R. But possibly a little more pop freindly. I expect a lot of ballads.
I’d rather listen to the songs and decide if its another Rater R or not, but if “Diamonds” is anthing to go by <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< "Russian Roulette + Rater R.
@MC keep holding yo breath for her to
flop…
@Lax
1. This was an A-B conversation between @Benron and I
2. He asked me to predict Rihanna’s first week sales sales
3. I gave my honest opinion and reasons for why I thought it would flop as I was asked by @Benron (not hating)
4. If you don’t like my PERSONAL OPINION the you can go f*** off because clearly I wasn’t addressing you but you somehow inject yourself into everything
5. STFU — no one cares about you or your co-signing-5000-million-comment-pointing-irrelevant-retarded-flaming-ass
@MC Eww A picture of some creepy guy came up with my name.
What picture? Let me see!
Run your mouse over THIS @Benron its hillarious.
LOL. Random white guy….according to the twitter page @MC = Matt Croydon. lol.
LMFAO! We have new identities! Use that to buy the LOUDTOURDVD!

@MC,,,,, Shut up Benron don’t mind Me sticking my
2 cent into the Mix,,, If you know what you was doing then don’t sweat anything I say i am only a navy Officer Deery…
@MC I must have posted on the wrong comment because you did not say you was waiting for Her to flop at all some one else said that MY BAD,,, I AM Just on Patrol and need some more rest away for awhile, thats all,,,,Carry on..
Humm if you look at it non of those b****** have anything on Tyler Swift. Her fan’s are not overly ghetto, and any where near ratchet as the Hoodhive, or Rihghetto…#, or Need a hit minaj…..#winning
Honey zip them up…..Stop being like the other two bit h*** most of the time you read like some one with a working brain!

You all love trying to Inflate the fuking numbers,,,
I don’t see that for her, but it would be amazing. 275k the first week is impressive–a high bar. I actually think this album is going to be a flop in the long run. Rated R & Talk that Talk were her biggest disappointments, but Unapologetic might be an even bigger one because using the same tricks to sell her albums is just getting old. We’ll see!
co-sign.
“Rated R and #TTT were her biggest disapointments”?
In which way? Artistically RATED R was her best and both outsold MOTS by a lot. What are you talking about!
Both Rated R and TTT sold in excess of 3 million worldwide, how are they disappointments? And these figures are not even updated, they could have sold a lot more by now, especially seeing that TTT is still in the charts World-Wide.
Both Rated R and TTT also had massive singles, Rated R had Rude Boy which was massive, TTT had We Found Love and Where Have you been, both massive. Singles are not given out for free BTW, They cost money, how are those era’s disappointments?
Let’s also forget VEVO views earn an artist money, Rude Boy has in excess over 100 Million views, We Found Love has in excess over 100 million views, Where Have you been has in excess over 100 million views, You Da one has in excess over 80 million views, how is this disappointing? We have also not even touched on radio airplay and Pandora which has earned both era’s more and more dividends. They are not disappointments. The music industry has grown past only selling albums. Times have changed a lot.
Auntie its okay Rih still Wins a few thing from time to time….

@ LAX
UK Navy is SUPER strong. I don’t know, she may have peaked with LOUD? Especially here in the states. Talk That Talk was disappointing because it had only one MONSTER hit. Rated R had only one, Rude Boy. Loud had several! GGGB was her best selling album and paved the way for her success now.
Like I said, 275k would be amazing for her, she might even get a #1 this time, but I just don’t see her coming out of the gate like that.
@Auntie Jackie,,,,True auntie..
I love how ppl on here are lying talking bout Keyshia Cole last album sold 180k in the first week LMFAO. It sold 128k Xmas week. LMFAO
Stop lying to make Rihanna look bad. Its desperate.
Keyshia Cole is no competition. The only reason Rihanna gets shade is because of her popularity. Look at Pink first getting a number one 10 years in the game. Yet, no one dragged her.
COSIGN!
I don’t understand the fascinateion with Taylor Swift……I am a RiRi fan, she always have a nice variety on her albums.
As far as I am Concerned every other Comment is NEGATIVE
as hell and what I wish of u Hating Ho’s would do for
Rih & Her Navy is hold yo breath for Her Music to Flop…..

success. Keep HOLDING YO BREATH FOR RIH TO FLOP HATERS…..
What? _/
Amazing to see how many people want Rihanna to fail as if she is forcing them to listen to her music or buy her albums. You are checking for Rihanna because you want to check for her, she didn’t force you. She didn’t hold a gun to your head and tell you to check for her, nope you wanted to check for her.
You call her music generic pop songs and yet you are the first ones to listen to them because you wanted to listen to them, she didn’t force you, you wanted to listen to her music and that’s why you listened to it.
If you paid this much attention to your fav’s the way you pay attention to Rihanna, maybe they’d still have careers but otherwise, nope, you’re always checking for Rihanna, Katy Perry and Nicki Minaj like anyone forced you to.
Good job Rihanna
@BEYONCE WEAVE The more they hold their breath for Her to
fail the stronger Shes going to spring back to the top of the
charts.
They tries their best to try to ride….
Rihanna’s Back like Rih is TRIGGER….and many from BHive Curses, slander, and throw all the Shyt they can pull from their ass along with their LIES at Rihanna trying their Damnest to try and make it stick and its bull shyt and they all know this,,,,simply Amazing coming from the BHive,,,would some one tell the BHive that Folks who live in Glass Houses should not throw Rocks,,,,
They are ….
always “Passing First Blood” and then when they get that booty TAPPPPPPED, they Scream like a bytch in Heat….
I Am not trying to be this or that but We must post the FACTS from time to time and WHILE I know that Rihanna can not and will not Ever Win them all because to Me and the biggest/best that Rihanna’s NAVY has to offer do know this much and that is : Rihanna might not be at the top, but RIHANNA sure in the hell is in this game to keep doing the very best that she can do. And no amount of your name calling and nasety ass vile comments is going to stop or slow Rihanna down from her part that she is “Playing To The Hilts In The Game”, Bastards, Suckers, ass holes, naysayers, and Doubters,,,,
Loud was Projected for 180k, as well as Rated R.
Im curious as too why they think she will smash so hard.
ttt too!
HYPE! (i.e “Loud” the next “Thriller”)
But Loud was projected to do 180k a day before the numbers came out.
Why would they hype her up just to flop?
She could have killer promo ready!
Benron, companies hype up EVERYTHING. Especially with superstars. I highly doubt Rihanna will have a “killer promo” this time around, I mean where is the video for her songs. Isn’t her album due like 1 month away? IDK the thinking behind it, but 275k is really high (considering even Loud and GGGB didn’t get anywhere near that — her best selling albums). Only time will tell.
Im not gettign my hopes up, we don’t even have a video yet. WFL video came Oct. 19th, now she has not even announced one for diamonds. She might be skipping out on one again, I think her label really might not be funding her. No buzz, announcement or anything. Im scared for her numers, I feel like she actually might flop so hard. *Gulps*
Controversy.
That’s Why. And that fast selling ‘Diamonds’?
iTS AT NUMBER 6 ON ITUNES AS WE SPEAK!
I honestly expect Bruno & Rihanna to do worse. I just dont see them pulling over 200K on their 1st week sales. I predict higher figures from Ke$ha
Keep right on pushing Rih the sky is Trully the limit.
I really don’t get why beyonce was brought up and fans are comparing who is bigger worldwide. does it really matter? They’re both two of the biggest stars in the industry who don’t seem to hate each other so there’s no reasons for their fans too! They’re both selling huge amounts of albums and singles whether its in the US, UK, Japan, Australia etc. Just be grateful that they’re both selling great and popular unlike other artists who are struggling to stay signed.
