There are nothing wrong with these numbers, they good for her. The problem is that she has been hyped by her fans & people promoting her trying to pretend she is one of the top female artists, so people were looking for well over 200k. Most of the better selling female artist's will be probably be doing 200k-300k but even those are not a lot. Because the reality they are very few female artists sells over 300k in the last few years, You have Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Adele , I cant think any other female artist who have sold over 300k over the last few years. Most female artists sell less than 200k. So these numbers are not bad, the anti-Ariana people will call it a flop, but in my opinion its not.
