As fans anticipate the launch of his forthcoming studio (and the Justin Timberlake-sized budget they hope it’ll be back by), Usher proves once again that his influence on Pop culture runs far deeper than most are aware of.
For, with the industry still yet to produce a fresh R&B male with the global appeal held by the ‘Burn’ belter, his fourth studio album has reached a milestone that solidifies his status as one of the greatest acts to grace Planet Pop…despite doing so on an R&B spaceship.
Details below…
This week, the star’s 2004 release ‘Confessions’ was certified 5x Platinum in the United Kingdom for sales of 1,500,000 units.
Yes…
1.5 million units…in the UK alone.
An epic feat considering the market’s relatively small population size, the album’s British success helped push its US total well over the 10 million mark, selling more units in the market than all seven of Rihanna‘s studio albums…combined.
With the above in mind, here’s hoping Usher‘s next album delivers the goods on all fronts. For, by way of the masses’ fickle nature, recent wins scored by both Justins and Robin Thicke have gone some way to dim Usher‘s PR light.
Ironic, considering the influence he’s had on each and every one of them.
So, after witnessing just how much glory ‘Confessions’ brought the star, one can only hope he uses every trick in the book to annihilate his competition in the style of ‘Beyonce.’
After all, this is a business, and with the industry’s ‘losing if you’re not winning’ mentality still in tact, Camp Usher better think again if they think a solid album, decent radio spins and a few TV sit downs are enough to pull in the numbers his talent and legacy are deserving of!
In other chart news, Lady GaGa’s ‘G.U.Y’ impacts Billboard’s ‘Bubbling Under‘ tally this week, debuting at #18 after the release of its official music video last week!

“the album’s British success helped push its US total well over the 10 million mark, selling more units in the market than all seven of Rihanna‘s studio albums…combined.”
A F***** MESSSSS! What are #1’s good for chile??? cuz I don’t see it kii
LMAO …RIGHT!!! Dangerously In Love has sold more WW than all of Rihanna’s 13 hit filled albums in the U.S. kiiiing DOOOWWWWNN
LIES!
DIL only sold 8.5 million and Rih’s WW sales been past that.
Comparing WW sales to US sales = stupid
The real kii is RIhanna WW total is far past Beyonce WW total. Kii f****** kii
Bitchhh rihanna has more uk numbet ones than beyonce will ever have!! Niggaa rihanna is only 26 she is one of the best selling artiat of all timr she has 13 number one how much beyonce has????
The over-worked b**** also has SEVEN albums! The desperation and struggle to keep up with Beyonce to only still be in second place!! kii
F*** those irrelevant ass generic hits that no one will remember b****! LOOOOOOOOOOL
Diamonds shitsssss on her ratchet ass drunk in f***!! Stay classy emotional performabce on grammy 2013 》》》2014 grammy p*** performance of beyonce !!!! F*** uuuu niggggga
Even with basic ass diamonds being a “hit” she still couldn’t get a double platinum album in the U.S.. Beyonce has already achieved that with her ratchet ass single and in three months! #SEETHE
Chile that boring struggle vocal performance of stay was not half ass classy or iconic as Beyonce’s Dangerously In Love(grammys), Listen (Grammys), or If I Were A Boy (Grammys)
Cling to one performance while your industry p**** spreading fave has PLENTY of nasty degrading performances!
It’s COMEDY that Unapologetic has only sold 1.1 million in the U.S. She BARELY sold a friggin’ million copies of an album that had two big hits, while she was promoted everywhere and wouldn’t go away…but that talentless sIut is supposed to be some kind of seminal “icon”. B****, puh-leeze!!! Rihanna is a quarter ho…meaning that’s all her badly sung “music” is worth to the GP…QUARTERS for a damn iTunes download.
MEANWHILE Bey is selling 2 million copies of a $15.99 album and has now scored a 200 MILLION dollar tour!!! ROFLMAO! Fuuuuck a big ass forehead Rihanna and her croaking frog singing. 😆
Kiiii Draggggggg that Miserable Ass Rihc*nt SLAY HIVE!
She recieved an icon award at the ama’s she also recently recieved a fashion icon award, she is a global force!!!! Beyonce is a local ho most of the sales of her new album are from the u.s, Rih’s impact shitsss on beyoncee
That local b*tch has sold more albums WW than Whoreianna though. A local b*tch album doesn’t sell over 3 million in 2 months and TRAMPLES the sh*t out of Unaflop in sales kiiiii. #BYE MISERABLE RIHC*NT
1. TGJ better give Usher that pep talk!!!
2. Rihanna’s sales though…
Beyonce has received a LEGENDS award and Billboard MILLENIUM Award. She can have the little irrelevant FLOPcon award and that Fashion award that means nothing. kii Bey has BIGGER and BETTER.
Beyonce has outsold the b**** in THREE months. Her WW sales will increases with more promo and single releases. NO #1. rihanna is flop even with 13 #1 AMERICAN singles! kiiii
LMFAO go the f*** in Grape.
So all of Ri’s albums don’t even add to Usher’s sales from that one album? I can’t and I won’t.
All of that promo and Alsina is gonna flop harder than Hugh Heffner’s d***? I can and I just did.
You came here for gags
Bubbling Under Buffoon. #DealWithIt
I see King Justin has TGJ hoping Usher can slay just like him but it’s not going to happen. You can keep dreaming though.
Deadass got hype reading this article. Ush needs to wake the f*** up and stop working with Repetitive Love if he wants to get on top again.
Meanwhile, LOUD is about to cross the 2 million mark in the UK but never mind that.
I’m more interested in finding out why I’m out and body party outpeaked Partition and XO?
Why is Partition flopping harder than EvE’s lip lock?
Read that ho for me i have to go sis
LOL and Loud still aint RIAA certified 2x platinum in America after 4 years! 😆
and 3 #1 hits #thestruggle
Meanwhile Hoeianna remains an Non Factor H** on the RIAA with 7 Albums KIIIII
That “Overrated Movie” sh!ts on every video the thief you stan for has ever made. You remember when the video for countdown came out right? ANd i trust you remember that the artist from whom she STOLE came out? Hypocrite. And you wonder why everyone hates you people. Just because the thief is winning now makes everyone else a flop. You forget not so long ago she was at the bottom of the barrel, idiot
Girl f*** that overrated ass movie. TOO BAD it’s doing absolutely nothing for her single or album. All that money gone to waste 🙁
How exactly was she at the bottom of the barrel, explain B****?
Bey didn’t have any top tens from 4 and still went platinum with ease. Gaga is working overboard and it doesn’t look like she will see platinum anytime soon. Definitely not selling 1,000 copies every week! lmaoooooooooooooo Gaga is done and there is no coming back from it. Edm is dead, t***** gaga is laying in her death bed. We’re just waiting to pull the damn plug *evil laugh*
Beyonce aint worldwide bitchhhhh!!! One successful album and you act like she is the shitt , Rih soldmore the 150 records worldWide and she is the best digital selling artist of the 2010’s on the hot 100, she has a makeup line perfumes she sells out shows she has a clothing line ahe has global power while beyonce is a localllll niggggaaaa
One successful album? Oh b****, you really ARE a confused s*** aren’t you?
“One successful album.” The stupidity is so real.
LOL
DEATH@ ONE successful album, when the only album to under-perform is 4.!
B**** Rihanna has THREE. Her first, second and RATED R!!!
kii
I love how ya’ll forget those happened when trying to come for 4!
And ALL of Beyonce’s albums (except 4) have outsold Rihanna’s discography with less #1 singles!
Beyonce has the highest grossing celebrity fragance of ALL TIME #NEXT
A global superstar with a networth of 90 Million. kii Justin Bieber and Gaga are ahead of the over-worked s****! kii
No boo, Rihanna actually has 4 flops.
Her first, second, Rated R. and UNAFLOPAGETIC. 1.1 million. LOL even 4 sold more than that sh^t.
LOL thanks for correcting me B.Hill
The navy is TOO delusional for me
B*tch To The Left To The Left. You must don’t know about THE QUEEN? 3 Albums of hers has sold over 8 Million WW! While Whoreianna only has Good Girl Been An H** kiiiiii
The fact that he’s working with Rico Repetition makes this album irrelevant to me already. Oh, and ha ha ha at Rihanna’s floppage.
IA. Usher needs to abandon Rico Love. I don’t know why he became some kind “go-to” guy for so many R&B artists, because most of his productions are stale. He must be cheap.
Beyonce fans are so angry and bitter.
Says the gurl who can’t find an man. Nice try Ugly Seeeethig b*tch.
This Slay_hive person really needs to get a life you look crazy.
B**** hop off my d***! I’m going to continue doing me! f*** you!
Usher is a trend hopper so I’m sure his new album will sound like Miguel wrote it.
And what would be wrong with that?
Usher needs to be Usher. He doesn’t need to be what’s trendy, be it acting like Taio Cruz or Miguel. I want Usher back. If he can’t give me the Usher I became a fan of, then I’d rather he just not bother.
usher is done. he will never see a platinum album again.
The way your mom’s hairline is set up though.
corny
You look like a loser hope off the public librarys computer and go purchase drunk in love so it can finally reach number 1. @Slay_hive
Girl if you want to address me, don’t be a scared b**** hiding behind a troll account. Reveal yourself so that you can be dragged and read accordingly, and I don’t need to purchase a damn thing that I’ve already bought! hop off my d*** already b****!
You made some good points in this article to be honest. Usher’s last few eras have been weak and that’s why most people think Justin is better than him. I don’t know what he can do to change that but you’re right in saying that it does need to change because L4M hasn’t even scanned half a million after two years.
Are you telling me the Beyonce fans are still bragging about that LOCAL album that will sell LESS copies than Pure Heroine and most likely Disneyism next week?
Yes. The album that’s currently Shitting on Unflop after months.
Justin Timberlake>>>>>>>>>That thing.
#Swag#personality#fame#beauty
The envy of that thing’s fans.
Envy? Tell me something sis, have any of JT’s albums sold more than 10 million in one country? No? I thought not.
And that’s all he got over JT, a diamond album, he can keep that, JT is superior to that thing.
Why would Usher be jealous of Justin?
Justin doesn’t struggle to sell albums like Usher.
Mess at this post becoming a Rih vs Bey thread. Sam, why the Rihanna shade? Just why? Smh, anyway, Usher needs this album to smash but the fact that he’s working with JD and Rico Love have already prepared me for the worst.
This local album has already outsold UNAFLOP in the U.S> without a #1 kii
so yesssss!
Frozen has even outsold the nontalented b**** LOL
Yes! 1.1 million boo! Just keep laughing at that like I do. 😆
No b**** you do need to purchase them struggling singles instead of tryna come for people who made a bigger impact then stripperyonce. I don’t care for Gaga but she’s done things Beyonce can’t same goes for Katy breaking real records.
B**** f*** you!!!!! YOU MAD and I will remain UNBOTHERED! I purchases ALBUMS. Not 1.29 singles b****. I’m coined down with not a worry in sight!
Beyonce has made a bigger impact than any of these basic ass b****** ya’ll stan for. The legends know it, Your basic ass faves know it, and the Critics know it! ( THE MF’S that matter)
HOP OFF MY D***!!!! Thanks!! 😀
We bought the album so why would we need to buy the singles?
IKR. LOL@people saying the Hive needs to buy singles? Um, no. We came out in droves and bought a $16 full album to a bigger degree than Rihanna, Katy and Gaga were able to sell theirs for much cheaper! Eff a single. The whole point of singles is to be promotional tools to sell the ALBUM, which is what Beyonce is able to do…unlike Rihanna and her lil corny classmates…
B*tch Shut your Dumb Idiotic Ass Up! Both of those h*** stan for THE QUEEN. Lady Caca ass is on the way out after 5years. Gurl please with that Basic Perry sh*t. The disney kids doesn’t take her serious. And what exactly has them b*tches been more successful than THE QUEEN? Generic Washable Ass singles sales is all they have over THE QUEEN.
Usher is too much of a follower to slay like he used to. Instead of finding new writers and producers to work it he goes to work with Jermaine Datedpri and Repetition Love. Like what the f*** are they gonna do for you when it was Diplo who gave you your best song in forever.
And it has stalled at 3,000,000 and STILL has not sold more copies than Unapologetic.
And seeing that FLOPtition isn’t enough to keep the momentum going in the only market that cares about Beyonce ghetto anthems; I doubt it’ll sell more copies than Unapologetic.
Disneyism will outsell it soon.
Why is FLOPtitiob flopping harder than a Keri Hilson CD?
Usher is the male J.lo they hope on trends.
That’s true, but you stan for Ciara and her Forget To Go To School Future so your opinion is nul in void.
Omg girls, I dead ass had a dirty dream last night. Y’all wanna know about it or nah?
Why isn’t Rihanna on RIAA with 7 albums tho?
@banjee no one cares loser
You cared enough to reply b****.
Why hasn’t stadium status grossed over 200 Million tho?
Why is it a struggle to get a double platinum album with a #1 single?
Why does this basic b**** have SEVEN albums and only sold 10 million in the U.S. with 13 hits?????
When will theses basic b****** with all of the magnificent hits score an 85 on metacritic???
There’s a major disconnect when it comes to Usher. I feel like I don’t know who he is as an artist.
His best bet is to let Sexlijah and Hitlo do the whole album 2bh.
Yes and no. Sexlijah needs to worry about his own music instead of helping the next ninja get a quick hit.
What Sexlijah NEEDS to do is make his way to my room and get this kitten.
When will 13 hits earn 17 grammys?
Why has a kid’s movie soundtrack( Frozen), with no #1 singles outsell UNAFLOP in the U.S. in a few months?
Lovebird durrling, when is Sexlijah’s album coming out?
I dreamed about his d*** last night girl. #10Inches #DontJudgeMe #YourJudgingMeTho #ItsMyPussy
Damn girl, you a h** just like Schlonghanna.
I was excited about this album until I heard Wannabe Love was working on it. Like for f****** real Ursh? The dude’s songs are dustier than Ciara’s award shelf.
I know someone will have something negative to say about the following statement but…
This is the exact reason why Black folk can’t just be (successful & great).
Why does Rihanna need to outsell or trump Beyonce?
Why does Beyoncé need to trump or outsell Rihanna?
It doesn’t make any sense. They are both SUCCESSFUL BLACK WOMEN.
They can’t just coexist as forces in this industry in their own unique ways?
They’ve BOTH left their marks in this world for valid reasons.
Okay, kumbaya & Black Panther moment over. Lol.
Don’t act as though Katy and Gaga fans aren’t as competitive.
This is the music industry. It’s very competitive. Artists have been pit against each other since the Prince, MJ, Madonna, Cher, Mariah and Whitney days. It’s just more common and open now, thanks to social media. People always have to make it a race issue. I don’t care if the artist is purple, if I don’t like them, I don’t support them. The stans will support there faves. It is what it is.
Lol the Hive acting like her new album is at 10 million copies, it’s at a basic 3 million worldwide and I’d be surprised if it sold more than Unapologetic (3.5 million)
it’s already nearing 3.2 Million in three months though! She hasn’t even officially begun promoting or releasing all of the singles. Keep seething. Beyonce is about to surpass UNA’s basic sales lmao
Why can’t Rihanna get these numbers in months, with WW hits? and you have the nerve to call what Beyonce is accomplishing “basic” lmao I can’t with the pressed navy sometimes
LOL the Navy ignoring that Unaflopagetic STALLED at 1.1 million in the U.S. and WTF is 3.5 million WW? Beyonce’s album hasn’t been out 4 months yet and outsold Unaflopagetic’s US tally IN ITS FIRST 3 WEEKS (!), is closing in on 2x platinum in the U.S., and has sold 90% of what Unaflopagetic has done WW in 15 months!!!! ROFLMAO! All that press, all the Twitter misbehavior, the “stadiums” (where she flops as well) and Rihanna cant sell a squirlshit worth of albums.
Please!!! Have a damn seat roach.
But it sold 3 million in three months. UPL sold what it has in two years.
BIG.
FREAKIN.
DIFFERENCE.
All of the seething is causing them to lose brain cells, obviously lmao
WW Sales: (This Week) “BEYONCÉ” – #12 – 52,400 copies sold [14 weeks] | Total WW Sales: 3,231,500
Grats Gaga and Usher 😀
The only writer that’s given Ush a hit in the last few years is Elijah so I don’t know why Rico Faux Thug Love is even allowed in the studio with him.
This says differently.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLP5SFsencg
Because TGMB made more impact than Climax?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-_K-IbJYvE
This website/members are so stupid! Yall argue about the same s*** EVERY DAMN DAY lol
atleast they aren’t unloyal retarded flip-floppers like you
Shut The Hell Up! Aint Nobody FLip Flopping Nothing! Dumbas
unstable b****! be gone
You lot are going in on Rico like he’s horrible when he’s not. Of course he’s not better than Elijah or even Eric Slaylinger but he’s still a big boy writer.
You obviously DKWYTA honey because the fact remains that Rico’s songs don’t do anything for anybody. Elijah and Fauntleroy are who Usher needs to have on his side not Rico and that’s a fact.
Before he just work with Diplo and call it a day.
1st off Ushers albums (all of them), have been GREAT (2 me), IDK his fans fell of, or hated LOOKING FOR MYSELF-it was EPIC! Usher does no wrong in my eyes- GAGA better do it, I see this helping her-GUY VIDEO IS AMAZING!!!!
Keep your silly opinions to yourself ok.
Damn you’ll can’t congratulate someone without making it into a stan war? FYI I find it hilarious that Cierror and Timber fake stans try to come for Usher.
No these b****** run their mouths about Queen Bey too much. The hive is sick of it
Queen Bey? Don’t make laugh sister girl. Beyonce is a dog who stole DIL from King Future.
Bey made it a hit! Detail, the producer, gave it to the right person deary. Future is a local flop who’ll be forgotten by December 🙂
King of what, back child support? Girl, please. Be quiet.
The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour has now grossed $214,594,567 with 9 shows left to report
Coming For Monster Balls wig with less dates I see. Can’t wait for the epic meltdown. @LOL where u at?
Yes @ The Hive dragging! Especially Slay Hive.
yes I just love Slay_Hive. He keeps them pressed and seething
Beyoncé’s six 2014 performances at London’s O2 arena played for 99,183 people and grossed $11,251,358
This is why Beyonce chooses not to follow the “hype” and chase “records” and does arenas 😀
Some people sell out stadiums and some struggle in arenas.
And some people are s****.
Some people gross over 200 Million doing arenas, others struggle to reach 150 Million “Selling-out” stadiums 😀
And some people play stadiums and still can’t bring in a final gross that lands their tour in the overall top 10.
Lmaoooooooo!!!! I’m choking!!! Not Gags on the Bubbling Under chart!!!! Chile Walking On Air wasn’t even a single and it charted higher 🙁 iTunes banner, pulling strings to put Artpop in the new release section on iTunes, two videos for the same song on YouTube and the b**** is still flopping! Where are the LittleSuicides at? Why are they allowing the “new Queen of Pop” flop on her third album? I thought she was going to slay this era.
No the Hive is ignoring that it took Beyonce 20 years to score her fastest selling album to only to stall at 3 million worldwide with most of the sales being local. LOL. AND it’s not Rihannas fault your fave can’t get hits.
Where will Rihanna be in twenty years miss thing? She won’t be topping charts or selling platinum albums. Her “it” pop girl status will be snatched by the next generic hit making industry s***. It’s not Beyonce’s fault she sells better than the new girls with excessive hits lol
How is Beyonce stalling at 3,000,000. She is selling WW what Rihanna is selling by her third and fourth weeks of release. No number 1 or promotion. Stop seeting at Beyonce because she doesn’t have to work like a s**** to get these numbers
Future writes better than Elijah so y’all can stop hyping him up.
Elle eaux elle!
Future is a S*** writer and a S*** singer. His songs are only half way decent because Mike Will can make anyone sound good.
Don’t ever f****** come for Slaylijah again when Climax, EONL and IW made more impact than Local Party could f****** ever.
You must be joking.
“Future is better than Elijah.”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GxY559Qfbc
Elijah makes international hits boo boo, Future is local like his fiance.
But who is more local than Tamar? Ciara has UK’s number ones, does Tamar even have a top ten anywhere in the world?
you mean all the ones she payed for K boo
Lol @Beyonce “nearing” 3.2 million, Chart news has it at 2.9 million, stop the delusion . Again, it’ll surprise me if this basic album outsells Unapologetic. #Nobasics
You need to update your receipts. WW Sales: “BEYONCÉ” – #12 – 52,400 copies sold [14 weeks] | Total WW Sales: 3,231,500 [according to MusiCharts] BYE
Why must the Navy LIE and deflate? Chartnews has Beyonce @ WW sales: Beyoncé 48,000 (3,051,000 total).
and the what was LAST week! smmfh
Usher >>>>> Justin Timberlake.
WTD is wrong with you Blonde!
B**** how many #1s does Elijah even have? #who
What do number ones mean if the songs are s***? Elijah is a respected writer and you know it.
Everyone knows Elijah slays most of the other writers so you tried and failed with that shade.
So this was supposed to be news about Usher (well not really, Sam asking for Confessions type of music from Usher so that he can achieve tremendous sales again is laughable, he must know that type of R&B is not selling like that anymore, so stop asking artists what to do cos your predictions are always proved to be a fail)… but Beyonce, Rihanna and Lady Gaga managed to make it into this post??? LOL Not one of them but the 3 of them?? Sam… no words 🙂 And about Gaga, she will probably enter the hot100 next week.
The navy are seriously dragging themselves waiting and trying to drag an album that came out three months ago for not outselling one that came out over a yr ago. Don’t hold your breath, Beyonce is selling what Rihfund sells in 4th week currently even though she’s ‘stalling’ according to you. Have you not learned to keep quiet yet. Damn.
The question really is, WHEN WILL THE CURRENT R&B MALES DO THIS:
Question: has Breezy albums come close? Has Trey? Has errrm thin comp out there.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFFFyAJSC1I
No is the answer to those questions CoCo. These current ones are not fully on the mark. Ne-Yo has a couple decent R&B albums & Mario came close sound wise.
Oh lets look back at those days when there was peak of Joe, R. Kelly, Aaron Hall, Carl Thomas, Tevin Campbell, Dave Hollister, Usher etc….
R&B male singers SUCK! All of them are trynna be thugs and sing about the same s***! All of them will continue to flop until they step they’re game up
Who cares about RIAA certifications when you’re pushing albums GLOBALLY. This is why Rihanna is playing stadiums whilst Beyonce has to add 10 festival dates to inflate her gross.
*yawns* you mad?
Beyonce pushes albums globally as well. and still gets RIAA certified………..ur point?
Why isn’t Rihanna in the top grossing tours list tho?……………
Kii
Yall are carrying!!
Where is she selling albums Globally? I know Beyonce fans are worst than their local fav at geography so you probably don’t know the meaning of global.
I see Samantha is seething since everyone dragging Beyoncé loool. Congrats usher and gentlemen gaga
What post are you looking at hun? lmaooo The navy is being dragged effortlessly by split ends
Whats so special about Rihannas global sales though? Beyonce still sells globally so whats your point?
Rihanna is the second biggest selling artist in the UK; is Beyonce the second biggest selling artist anywhere? LOCAL and even with those LOCAL sales, they are nothing to brag about.
NO one cares about the U.K. and there basic certifications. Bey sales better in the largest market with half the albums and half the “hits”. Rihanna’s pathetic album sales are definitely nothing to brag about with seven albums. I see why you’re mad lmao
But you haven’t answered the question, is Beyonce the second biggest selling artist anywhere?
lmao. Is the U.K. suppose to be special or something?
The UK is the fourth biggest music market, but not you avoiding the question, is Beyonce the second biggest selling female artist ANYWHERE? She’s certainly not that in the States.
And Beyonce sells a Tour globally. Lool. Shes #6 on highest grossing female Tours. What local artist does that. Lmao. Yall need to come harder with the drags the HIVE is dragging yall effortlessly.
When the entire gross is calculated, she’ll be in top 5 for sure. Maybe the #3 spot. Only behind Madonna.
Lovebird calling Beyonce local is as bad as the Hive calling Rihanna a singles artist.
Local = Rita Ora. Singles Artist = Jason Derulo.
Stop reaching.
Salvation Army being dragged. I live.
Anyways, G.A.Y. will flop harder than Marry The Night.
Thanks to those 19 festival dates she added.
why did the arena tour outgross the big bad stadium tour? Your struggle is so hilarious
Because of those 10 festival dates and she did 132 shows vs Rihanna’s 90 shows.
Of course basic math is too hard for you.
Beyonce headlined the festivals. They count towards her gross. Stop being a sour asshole and accept it! lmao
Death, plenty of artists headlined festivals last tour period, Beyonce is the only one who added them to her gross.
Rihanna added festivals for LOUD’S tour, right?!
So you’re going to deny her the festivals, When a majority of the gross is accredited to her? and When she was the HEADLINER! Find a new argument already. It’s played out! Bey wins! You will remain mad! lmaoooooooo
Death at you bringing LOUD tour when we are talking about MCS show tour which had more dates and only outgrossed Rihanna thanks to festivals.
Beyonce has been adding festivals to her gross since I Am World tour.
I’m from the UK actually. And Beyonce officially has sold over 190,000 tickets in London alone and has the most stints at the 02 than any other artist. Local artists don’t do that.
Beyonce did 132 shows vs 90 shows Rihanna did. If Rihanna also did 132 shows, she ROK would have grossed $200m+; and she wouldn’t have needed to add 10 festival dates to her gross since she plays stadiums.
Beyonce was already outgrossing her though if you just count 90 of her dates. Beyonce was making more money on average. You are seriously delusional! lol
Why is a Lana del alcohol abuse and consumption trying to come for the navy? B**** just because your fave gotten lukewarm hit and 5 million “sold” doesn’t mean you belong in the group. Your rival is Lorde, you cannot come for Rihanna if Lana’s stats cannot even beat granny less Perry. Sit down and shut the f*** up. What’s with these Stan’s, you’re lordes lessor, why are you trying to drag?
How is Lana Borde’s lesser when Borde is a complete and utter nonfactor outside of the US and Oceania? Let me not bring up Payola Heroine’s certifications.
Someone is bad at math.
Someone is struggling to accept the facts, I see. lmao
Beyoncé did not add 10 festivals what kind of LIES and struggles. There were only 3 included. Which means she still grossed 170 mill in 2013 alone.
So lovebird you have resorted to lying now? Is dragging that hard. There were only 3 festivals added to her gross which means she still grossed 170 mill in 2013 alone without them.
I CAN’T!!!!

One! Yes, one album (21). This site is so ridiculous in trying to shade Rihanna when that b**** has had a best selling album every year since loud , with her lowest sales being 3 million and not to mention Unapologetic just certified 4 million .
stop the foolishness already
Excuses, she added 10 festival dates.
@Lovebird Receipts?
I said second biggest selling FEMALE artist.
Beyonce is in the top ten . That’s just singles stats anyway!
But she is not second. Where is Beyonce the first or second biggest selling female artist? Certainly not in the US.
lol The struggle. Are you really bragging about singles stats. Rihanna is certainly not a bigger seller in the U.S. than Beyonce, with more hits and albums than all of her peers and those before her . #embarrassing for a supposed pop superstar, eh?
But Rihanna has sold more albums than Beyonce in the UK. So whether we talk singles or albums, she has sold more than Beyonce.
And you still haven’t answered my question.
But by how much though? Please remember she has 3 albums more than Beyonce( Not counting new album), and a zillion more singles. Post a receipt of this
TGJ is the TEA PARTY equivalent of a blog . Delusional and self serving
But you’re here all the same.
The receipts is on the same site that said Beyoncé sold 11 million with DIL.
@Rosie, sure and while you’re at it you could compare that To Rihanna’s sales. Bye
How much did Beyoncé sell now with Beyoncé? Did it outsell unapologetic yet? Looool
Can the album be out for a year first? I mean it did take Rihanna almost two years to get to 3.5 😉 thanks
You are seriously struggling my dear. Beyonce snatched the w**** bald!
D E A L! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
Yes, with 7 albums and 53 singles, I would expect Herprihs to have better receipts.
Rihanna all about mass to make her stats look bigger in certain areas. 7 albums and she still struggles.Yet you want to drag Beyonce for adding 3 festivals? The navy is a ‘kiii’
Yea Blue, I’m still waiting for slay hive to provide that receipt of Dangerously in love selling 11 million.
You have no problem denying it. Why don’t you provide an accurate receipt and link of DIL not selling 11 Million…….
Because slay hive stated that he’ll provide me with a receipt.
Receipt of slay_hive ever saying that……………
Death @ Navy getting dragged. Dont like Hive but damn *Grabs popcorn
Better worry about Future not being able to say why he loves Ciara in every interview he did instead.
THIS BEY S***!!!!!!
BOW DOWN B******!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀
And I am still waiting for receipts for Beyoncé adding 10 festivals. Practice what you preach.
*I BEEN ON, I BEEN ON, I BEEN ON, TELL ME WHO GONE TAKE ME OFF, TAKE ME OFF, TAKE ME OFF* #LIFE
So I just tried to look up “rihanna discography” on Google and the first thing to come up after I typed “rihanna” was “rihanna twerking.” Shows how much respect the GP has for her.
But what about those empty stadiums? What about them DIL selling 11 million receipts? What about her only grossing 200 million after 10 albums? Pretty basic considering how she sold with DC.
You know y’all could just drag Rihanna all you want, I don’t care but iof you cannot answer all of my questions then your fave is just as basic as your education.
What about TMCS still grossing over 200 Million?
What about GGGB needing a re-release with lead single to reach 9 Million?
What about those 7 albums 13 hits and at 10 Million in the U.S.?
What about Beyonce being at 15 Million with 5 albums(so far)?
Now you want to accredit Beyonce with ten albums. Can’t leave out her 9 #1 singles then. sucks to be a navy right now. I know loool 😀
Dam the hive went in!! Poor navy and poor lovebird. I know that wig is all kinds of snatched and dangling by bloody strands
@Blue Ivy. Fun fact. Madonna did’nt have her first 100 million grossing Tour till the 2000s. Yet she is Touring Queen.
Are the Navy serious with these drags?
Shes local.
What about her only grossing 200 million after 10 albums? Pretty basic considering how she sold with DC.
How much did Beyoncé sell now with Beyoncé? Did it outsell unapologetic yet?
I can’t.
Funny you say that Rosie, I searched Lana’s name and the first thing I see is her throwing up on lady gaga performance video and multiple videos of her f****** up on snl plus articles saying she’s not a good live performer at all .
I’m still waiting for it DumbHive show me those receipts!!!
Love bird I have a feeling that the evidence is somehow nonexistent because all I see are queens dodging the questions and trying to drag Rihanna with repetitive shade.
Why you so pressed about that receipt though?? Mad because your fave is getting dragged up and down this post, that you have to change the subject? 😀
Not the pre-school drop-out AIDSvy hollering repetitive. When the only words they know are “singles” and “local” lmao
That’s not true. We know lots of words.
Thief.
Desperate
Housewife
Desperate Housewife
Copyright infringement
Song stealing
No number one single having
See?
The Hive knows words as well:
Industry P****
W****
FLOP
Swagger Jacker
Model
Model with a Mic
Nocalist
photo/image stealer
No RIAA certified album having
yeah I see 😉
DEATH!!!!!!!
Looks like even Lovebird ran from the post honey.
So TGJ got 200+ comments on an Usher post by simply throwing Beyonce and Rihanna’s name in the article?
And I tried to look up Lana’s discography and all I got was the street address and phone number of her plastic surgeon
BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! try again
Girl I tried too and tell me how a bottle of jack and unpaid plastic surgery bills showed up. Don’t listen to A fan of a lorde lessor. I’m still waiting for those receipts of Lana being more relevant.
But when you google rihanna, all that comes up is a black eye, unused condoms, s** clinic locations, and local drug dealers contact info.
Let’s not act like lana didn’t outsell una wihtout half the commercial support or a hit single. Lana is an artist, something Rihanna will never be. Btw when will her writers be through working on her new album?
Beyhive dragging Rihanna? Lol. Rihanna is unbothered when she is outselling they’re fave without inflations across the board! At the end of the day the hive has to add countless numbers, dates and grosses just so Beyoncé can look better. Rihanna rereleased GGBB but didn’t Beyoncé do the same with Bday, I am Sasha fierce and 4? So what kind of drag is that? Even after those re releases your fave still couldn’t go past 9 million us?but Rihanna is at 9 closing in on 10 million very fast so does that mean Rihanna will get her diamond album before her? Lmfao. Also Beyoncé sold 10 albums but is just now selling over 200 million in tours, I thought she was a queen and the best in the game. Her numbers are basic.
I don’t remember the h** that said Beyoncé has 9 # 1s but yes she does and that’s even less than Rihanna, your queen is a lessor of Rihanna in everything except performing to be honest.
What inflations are you talking about though? Across the board you say? Albums? NO, touring NO, Forbes, NO, Acting, NO, Grammys, NO, Endoresments, NO
! Stop reaching b****, it’s beyond pathetic as this point! hahaha
GGGB was re-released with Disturbia as a lead single, and promoted like a newly released album. B-Day and IASF were re-released but there sales are from the original release and were not promoted.
How come IASF and BDay outsold Rated R, Loud, TTT, and Una with only one number one?
How will Rihanna get a diamond album?? All seven of her albums total to 10 million in the U.S. You are a delusional sad member of the navy1 😀
It will take a miracle for that to happen, my dear
Btw Beyonce has 5 solo albums,stop trying to inflate because your fave’s sales are basic with seven releases
lmaooooooooooooooooooooo
The navy has to deflate Bey to make there fave look better. How pathetic. Beyonce stays winning and that will never change. You’ll see when FLOP8 is released! 😀

***********************
You’ve just proven for the umpteenth time how much of a clueless numbskull you are, why you have no business being part of any conversation, and why no one should bother listening to a thing you say.
GGGB is not nearing “diamond” status in the U.S., you dunce. It *allegedly* sold 9 million worldwide. In the States, that album is only at 2x platinum (it took a re-release for her to get a merely double platinum album? Ouch!) The RIAA doesn’t certify based on WW numbers, only domestic…and in no one’s lifetime is GGGB gonna reach 10 million in sales or shipments in the US of A.
That being said, I must ask…
Were you born dumb, or is stupidity airborne in the slum you reside in? Seriously, shut up. Idiot.
Meanwhile, can one of the ditzy ilk that is Rihanna’s fan base (I refuse to call you clowns a ‘Navy,’ because her sales are too weak to justify her followers having such a title. I mean seven albums and only 10 million in domestic sales. Embarrassing.) care to explain to me why Rihanna has released 1-2-3-4-5-6…7 (!) albums, and only *one* of them is at multiplatinum status? That kind of sums it up, doesn’t it? F#ck kind of “it-girl” is that?! Why is Beyonce about to go double platinum with an album she released just four months ago, which would make all but one of her albums multiplatinum, while Ms. Fenty’s first (and last) album to achieve such a feat is now seven years old?
Are they seriously trying to drag Beyoncé for having a 200 million grossing Tour when she’s only 32. With less dates than a white artist (Gaga). I mean, I doubt Rihanna will have that because she’s not an acclaimed performer. When her fire burns she won’t be an artist like Beyoncé who can Tour off her name because shes great performer.
WW Sales: “BEYONCÉ” – #12 – 52,400 copies sold [14 weeks] | Total WW Sales: 3,231,500 [according to MusiCharts]
LOL! I see why they are seething. She’s like 300k away from outselling Unapologetic which took a year and then some to get 3.5 yet Beyonce’s supposed to be washed up? Why is she, after 17 years, outselling all the gurls at their peak?
#TOUR The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour is now the 6th highest grossing female tour of all time
#TOUR Beyoncé’s six 2014 performances at London’s O2 arena played for 99,183 people and grossed $11,251,358
#TOUR The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour has now grossed $214,594,567 with 9 shows left to report
Yasss I am getting my life!
Fact is, Beyonce is a glorified stripper mom that sings about getting jizzed on. Not even miley is that dirty
yeah Miley chewing random panties and implying m*********** with a foam finger on stage is so classy.
@SLAY_HIVE – OKAY, WHILE YOU’RE TELLING US ALL ABOUT BEYONCE …WHERE ARE YOUR LONG LIST OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS? BECAUSE WE KNOW BEYONCE AND RIHANNA ARE BOTH LIVING THE LIFE SO TELL US ALL ABOUT YOURS.
B**** what do you need to know my accomplishments for? Do I have you b****** that pressed that you have try and come for me personally?? LOL
This is a music blog, therfore stans of relevant pop artists with argue. It’s the way it is and it’s the way it’s gone continue to be! I’m not famous , a singer nor am I a rival of Beyonce’s, so I fail to see the importance of you knowing my MF accomplishments? As a 22 year old student , I’m where I need to be b****, and your concern isn’t needed! Thanks 😉
I thought this was an Usher post?
But since I am here
Beyoncé>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rihanna
(Leaves)
Chile did I just see someone from the Navy say Beyonce’s numbers are “basic” B**** I’M DONE
Rihanna has ended Beyonce though. Beyonce is:
1) the desperate cumdumpster
2) the thief
3) the used weave rih throws away
4) the wrecking ball that miley sits on
5) more over rates than lana’s lips
6) has to sell calendars
7) the meat lady gaga made a dress from
8) more to a camel
9)the definition of bleached out
10) a h**
It’s rich that you would call Beyonce a “h**” and a “c** dumpster,” when it’s Rihanna who has the reputation for being an industry towel rack.
I’ll never forget the time when a handful of rappers, from Meek Mills…to 2 Chainz…to Drake…to even Chris Brown himself…got on Twitter and covertly laughed amongst each other about how they all popped that tramp. I’m guessing that at this point it’s like throwing a hotdog down a hallway.
Are those topless photos of Riri still circulating around Tumblr? Hmmm.
Rihannas going to be in for an epic drag fest when her new album comes out since the Navy want to talk so much about ‘BEYONCE’. Which is doing better than any Rihanna album.
*checks beyonce’s new album receipts*
*checks highest grossing tours list*
Rihanna may have ended t***** caca but she hasn’t stopped MrS. Carter b****
Have two seats. one for you and the other for your tired ass reads. BYE!!
Well you better re-check your receipts for the Dangerously in love sold 11 million WW receipt you promised me; I’m still waiting.
b**** I’ve never promised you a damn thing! I wouldn’t p*** on your black ass if you were on fire. Find the damn receipt yourself If it’s that f***** serious to you
YASSS!! YOU BETTER DRAGG THAT B****!! LOL!!!
USHER THE KING.
Not the hive bragging about them “dragging” what you should be doing with your messy asses is asking yourselves WHY someone with over a decade of being in the music industry is being compared to someone like rihanna?? The supposed “lessor” answer that hive ANSWER IT
lmfaooo the Hive DRAGGED these h*** for dear life I lived .. LOVE YOU slay_hive
I’m telling you Diamonds, Beyoncé is Rihanna’s lessor just by how the hive celebrates a b**** who took 17 years to make a 200 million grossing tour while Rihanna would take half the time to reach that milestone not too mention she is selling much more than Beyoncé overall this is way the hive add her numbers to together just so the b**** could look good against her rival. They came for re releases but they’re fave had 3 releases on 3 different albums and they still couldn’t pass 7 million.. But the queens only release is selling 9 million? What about those 11 million DIL receipts? She’s even a lessor with number 1s her rival with that is Yodel Perry. This why the hive come in and trying to drag Rihanna and dodging these questions we navy members had for weeks… Like even H2O agreed that the chick is local act within the states only, where is partition? Where is Xo? Drunk in love is in the scrap been everywhere else except canada and United States. In fact your fave is more of a rival of Ciara/Taylor Swift.
Nothing to say the Hive dragged the s*** out of THe Navy and the “Others” Lol..
Bookmark this Beyonce the album will outsell album #8 from Rihanna and the navy will deal.
This is one of the most hilarious threads I’ve seen here at TGJ in a good while. Seriously pick up your faces, Navy. The Hive literally dragged them up and down the town square like a tin can hanging off the back of a car.
Poor “Lovebird” and “Blue Ivy Carter-Rodriguez”. Even if they came away looking like defeated contestants on a remedial game of Jeopardy, they certainly DID try didn’t they? Ha.
Well, Rihanna is still young and yet more successful than YANWCE. STAY MAD. Usher music has downgraded lately. I’m only checkin’ his body
Rihanna is more successful at singles, Beyonce is more successful at everything else.
