The numbers, after much ado, are finally in.
Rihanna‘s eighth studio album ‘ANTI’ has been the subject of much debate – thanks largely to a leak on TIDAL, a purchased Platinum plaque, and an all-round messy roll-out.
It also bears the weight of serving as the year’s first “event” release from a major Pop artist.
How did it fare, then, after its first full week in the marketplace? Find out below…
According to Hits Daily Double, the ‘FourFiveSeconds’ ‘Work’ led LP will indeed open at #1 on the next issue of the Billboard 200.
The set officially shifted 125,000 copies Stateside in its premiere week, a number which rises to 172,000 when factoring in the new “sales plus streaming” system.
Though a victory of sorts, it wasn’t an easy feat. For, ‘ANTI’ had to fend off a challenge from the still-selling Adele. The Brit belter’s blockbuster ’25‘ sold another 93k.
It’s worth noting that said figures are entirely digital; the physical edition of the album hits retail today. Will it lift numbers next week?
That’s pretty good! I’ve had Needed Me on repeat ever since the album leaked.
What’s ghost about125k? Weren’t you elated with that platinum plaque she bought? It’s ten times less
No, I think you have me confused with someone else. Please exit my reply section, thanks.
About the same level as Madonna’s Rebel Heart sales but Madonna is in the industry for 30 years. ???
This is GOOD bc:
-This is off DIGITAL SALES ONLY! with NO direct promotion aside from IG/Twitter.
-No release date. If you consider that Rihanna does NOT push albums at high volumes in her first week. Her previous highest efforts are at 240K WITH heavy promotion, Monster Single, Endless Mag covers, etc.
-She managed to push 125K with NONE of that.
Let’s put the petty hate aside– this is good.. FOR RIHANNA
460k + 125k in 2 weeks!
I totally agree when Billboard named her as the best selling black artist.
ANTI is awesome. love it badgirlriri
Yes i thought i was the only one who absolutely loves that track ,that being said this sales are good but not impressive .I expected a whole lot more.way more she is supposed to be rhe “reigning digital queen” and pop royalty so why moving new comers numbers??
yikes….queen of samsung should go to vegas and sing with queen of sony mariah. ???
Screammmmm!!! ?
Navy is celebrating once again a dust collector album of the year. Too funny…. ???
Wait for Beyonce…this album is just another time waster. K byeeeee!
?
Her tour will b floping. Joining Mooriah or JLo could be a wise move.
Thank you Navy!!!!

lol 🙂
She tucked her tail for a very long time for Adeles sales to decline ! And with a bogus add of streams and false purchases she goes #1 for one week I’m sure so we will call that a PEAK! Not a LAND! Girl bye this era if that’s what u call it is so shady! They say Jays fault for her decline I say it’s the Roc who is using Payola to make her stay afloat

What’s with all of these partial updates with sales figures? Why not wait until the album is released on all platforms before saying how much she sold. I find this is just an attempt to undermine her official sales number and just seem like a shady technique by this site. Don’t know about this obsession with all things Rihanna.smh.
Dear fleas of this dog blog,
AGAIN!!!
.
While you are yet again PERCHED and SEETHING on Iconna’s post let’s put our fan cap on together while we revisit some facts.
–
1. SAMSUNG ain’t looking at that CHARTless
B*****!! Kiiiiii YOU maaaaad huh
–
2. BEYlowHERpeers couldn’t IMAGINE brokering a phenomenal MUSIC deal like this in the 21st century where the music climate is yet again evolving.
.
No wonder why she stay SHOOKED and firing management in 2015 when Adele dropped her album.. Oops I meant 2016 when ANTI changed the music industry.
–
3, Speaking of the GENERAL consumer- these people actually CHART Rihanna’s music over YOUR faves music EIGHT (8) years straight!!. BLOOP
4. That 2 year anticipation had:
.
(a)-
billion dollar TECH corporations knocking
down BEYONCE’s door…. Oops …I meant Youngest Serial Hit Maker of this Generation’s-Iconna’s door to THROW their hard earn MULA for her to make another album because of the thirst for HER music.
.
(b)-
given her another #1 album, earned her 2 more records under the belt which pushed her MUSIC stats waaaaay up LEGEND-Land hunnie… PLUS her 1st single off ANTI is another TOP 10 hit in India… Oooops I meant the BILLBOARD HOT 100 very much RELEVANT chart!
–
SEETHE on “her blondejesty’s” minions!! Kii
Oops loool u better shush. Wintz they gona hate u girl! Your drags have me hollering
Lol I saw this in the Grammy post below which had me hollering.
((2016- RIHANNA :
-#1 album
-gained/broken 2 new records in music history
-scheduled to perform her OWN MUSIC at the Grammys
-earned top 10 hit on Billboard 100 from her newest album
.
2016- BEYONCE
Still not charting music
Still NO broken records
Still killing careers (Newest victim…Coldplay)
-Still a blonde narcissist (Fired her management team including her family)
Still being overshadowed by her peers (opening act at the 2016 Grammys)
Lol no wonder why the hive stalks Icon))
——————————-
Just congratulate her for being able to sell those numbers and debuting at #1 considering how messy this era has been and giving the album away for free- instead of always having to give a back-handed compliment!
But she didn’t debut at #1 tho, she debuted at #27
??? That wasn’t a true debut– it only had a few HOURS of release. Let’s talk realistically for a second.
She debuted at number 27 *realistically*
The #27 DEBUT was from the album leaking for 20 mins. .. I mean it was all over the news. 460 copies sold plus however many streams in 20 minutes…pretty damn impressive to me
Two years of promo!!!!!!!!??
Decent numbers considering she gave a million out for free.
……
I got my physical copy today. This album has stellar production. It just syncs.
My boo and I made up to kiss it better earlier and girllll… He went there!!! *curl toes*
To be honest people to wake up. If one person buys your album 20 million times. That is 20 million sold. TGJ can laugh all they want at that samsung deal but she still sold a million copies. #facts
definition: sell – give or hand over (something) IN EXCHANGE FOR MONEY. Gift – a thing given willingly to someone WITHOUT PAYMENT
She SOLD them to Samsung
Good!! So you understand…. Samsung bought one million copies… and just like Christmas or your birthday you were gifted from that purchase….. ooookay
Lol I guess. Like they say Samsung is a fan tbh
Considering the element of surprise, the free giveaways, the leak, the lack of promo aside from the week of, the messy rollout – she still managed to sell a good amount for opening week.
Congrats on another #1 RIRI!
No darling that is not a debut. The album has debut already. It just rose to number 1 but it did not debut at number 1
B**** billboard do not count digital you have to go get the album in the store physically then it counts b**** I’m on my way to get 2 right now I already bought it from iTunes go out navy support our girl
Kiii bitxh Billboard doesn’t count digital!!! DAFUQ KIND OF NEW RIHTARDATION STAGE IS THIS???? You do realize her albums only been available on a DIGITAL platform. Smh
Well I don’t agree with her shady tactic of getting that platinum certification! That’s a huge slap in the face to all of those artists who work their asses off a lot harder than Rihanna does. Artists who actually write their own music and take their time putting it together and then get snubbed at every freaking media outlet and awards show. Involved from beginning to finish – and not somebody who just goes into the studio and lays her vocals down without even connecting with the song.
Girl suck my caribbean eggplant u need to have something in your mout so u wont be talking all that s***
How the f*** she shady it shows how smart she is and she made 26 million last year from a big company why is that so,bad I think bey clean house cause her dumb ass could,not think business wise,for herself rih is smart she don’t need people thinking for her like some of you Samsung invest in rih she will make them money I’m about to get,me Samsung s6 just from rih commercial so all you house of dereon hating b****** eat s***
a million sold is a million sold. it counts because it was bought. just like when you buy a lot to ticket and WI the jackpot you bought a ticket to be able to win free money. enough with your dumb logic
So even after the leak, Samsung deal the media was pressed about (especially iTunes) and Tidal deal the media was pressed about, Rihanna still scored a number one album.
‘
Not Rihanna selling in the second week what Jackie has been unable to do months after release.
Why are you worried about Jackie? H** shut up.
Because a certain b**** has been trying, trust me, you don’t want to be on my list
Congratulations Westbury Road on your first number one album. Victory and job well done.
‘
Waiting for that ad though
Probably the first and last number one album they’ll ever see mark my words.she dug a hole for herself lets see how she sells with any future album releases ..she’ll be seen as a fraud #noshadenoliejusttruth
Happy for her!
Kiss for the haters <3
Kiss your mother’s wet fart. Nothing to b proud of…
Oh and Physical copies out today, cannot wait to go shopping.
Congrats Ri. With all the it girls moving solid numbers I’m surprised you didn’t do at least 250k! But maybe it’ll sell more next week.still another number 1 #thereignfinnaletup
172k isn’t too bad for Riri. She’s never has huge numbers for any of her albums in their opening week. I’m honestly just happy she finally released the album. I think it is her 3rd best work (aftee RR & LOUD — GGGB is overrated… there I said it.)
This just shows if she didnt give out free copies she woulda sold atleast 350k first week
Eh probably not. I’m delusional when it comes to Riri. 250k (300k w/ streaming) max if no free copies were given.
125k*
Damn she looks ugly in that pic! Sam should have gave us a WARNING. Lol everyone who buys the physical copy of CANTi gets FRIH FOOD STAMPS courtesy of DIABETES UNBOTHERED… yes even SCENT-URINE & FAGMARK. #RIHANNA-UNBOTHERED *Snorts more COKE*
YAAAASSSS SAMSUNG CAME THROUGH FOR THIS CHAWLD!!!! LMAO!! Poor fRih she def gunna be slamming the crack rock after those numbers ???? Bitxh is gunna need to be put on s****** watch KIII!!! ???????????
#AntiNeedsPrayer

#NevaGunnaSeeGold
seek mental help.
Meh, probably not!! i like facing my demons head on. Instead of being medicated bore like you. ???
Not amazing but commendable especially since she gave out a million for free. I’m more interested to see what visuals she delivers with this project. I want to get inside her head since this album is so different for her.
Girl Bye! After a whole year of promo this laughable! Megan sold 195k in the first week. Jay Z gave away 1 million through SHAMsung and still open with 500k. All those push backs to avoid Adele to only selling in the range of Britney Jean album :/
Vegas seems a very good option for this untalented goat!!!
Im just waiting for those WW #s. 125k us but in the Uk its not selling at all. So i wonder how much it sold and if global tracking will count the extra 400k samsung bought off tidal. I find it humorous they still trying to claim frih sold that much on tidal when they most likely dont have 1 million subcribers ww… even 400k sounds sketchy even at discounted price.
P*** poor numbers. Maybe she will make up for it after the Super Bowl and Grammys because she will need a miracle to go platinum. There’s no hype and her tour is flopping.
125,000 wow riri a damn shameeeeeeee.
LMAOOOOOOO This is embarrassing for the Digital Pop Queen! (As CentLESS and Fag111 and the rest of the bttmVY call her). Why can’t she debut with over 500k first week? Basic b****!!!!
@PlasmaScreen45head don’t do too damn much.
you must be mad biitch??!!! Post your ugly ass peanut head b****! you won’t. You know better!!!!!!!!!!
I’m sure Sony said the same about 4 and SELF TITLED
She’s so consistent with her album sales. Still around the 200k mark after a million downloads and Tidal. Let me go pick up my physical copy asap.
More around 100 without streaming…
Thank god, the basic b****** have streaming. lmaoooo At this rate, it’ll be 2017 before she sees a gold plaque(in ACTUAL sales), if ever! 500,000 is a long way from 125k + 460 BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The QUEEN could NEVERRRRRR!!!!!!!! Hit or not bitchesssssss BYYYEEEEEEEEEEEE
You been a fan though. That’s why you’re seething up and down this post.
b**** BYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I’m SCREAMING h**. No seething!!!!! Why would i seethe over these pathetic ass sales?!!
Tragic sales????
Adele will be back to number 1 next week!!!! lmaoooooo a A MF SHAAAAMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! kiiiiiii
Trust me this bish gonna need more than a miracle(the walking on water type) to see platinum worldwide.
Those numbers are pitiful for someone who is supposed to be a leading pop star of the moment. Just goes to prove that Rihanna is NOT the force she, her team and fans try to make her out to be.
Not bad at all!!! Good for her.
https://youtu.be/dKY0FsUEMyw
These sales are just decent and just barely that! It sold 125k not 175k. I hope when billboard factors streaming its from actual sales idk how that works but i know its petty & makes the charts messy cuz a artist can sell way less in actual sales but still debut higher off streams like rihs #27 debut could have saved her the embarrasment if it didnt chart last week at all.(waves >>> anti)
So much hype… and yet this ..mmm ??
And i don’t feel sad for her & her very stupid stans. Who d FU ck says thanks navy for platinum sales wen she knows damnn well she âint gonna see that. What a shame!!!!!!!
hahahah
.
FLOP!!
Giving away a million free copies and still being able to sale over 100k in the first week is good imo.. How many of our favs are giving out free albums and still selling?
Guuuurl you can remove the our and put a your! Our Queen had an album leak 1 month before it dropped and still sold 300k first week. Can’t speak for the other fan bases.
#NoShade
#AllLove
Nobody is so dumb like her. Making music just to buy coccaine and sound pathetically drunk!
And look she scored her 2nd number 1 album thats huge for her. Never a hater I’ll always give credit let the navy have their moment.
But you were hating all last week. Take yo @ss home, you did the most trying to get back cool with the pest and the payed you in Ciara sales dust. You always kissing @ss and then talk ish and then crawl your spineless @ss in people’s DMs playing a victim. Trying to play nice because even after a million downloads, Tidal streams, a leak and whatever, ANTi still sold 7 times more than Wackie first week and already outsold Wackie WW Sales in a week.
Oh and Anti is on all streaming sites now. Can you say another week at #1? You pest know you messed up, right? And then the Grammys. Hahaha, you basic minds are so wrapped up on the first week, we here all month. 🙂
grammys what nazi?
.
Adele is the only one gracing that #1 on BB200 AFTER grammys
.
the juggernaut COULD NEVER!!!
.
she even failed to top Hot 100 after last year’s grammys

.
im not takimg that fraudulent RIIA certification into consideration
.
after all RIAA can certify undersold albums
Poor Navy this era has been nothing but an embarrassing for them. The fact that they had to lower their standards is just tragic. I mean I thought the goat was gonna score a #1 or debut with more than 200K but now they are settling for less when all has failed. Kii wait till Gags,Bey and Katy come out and show this h** what true slayage is
Please buy Khalifa on iTunes so he can block the goat next week https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/khalifa/id1077051655
First off this isn’t anti’s debut week. It debuted at #27, I expected it to sell more. I mean she only sold 125K in the second week? That’s nothing to write about, can we please get some articles other than Anti’s failure? KING just release an amazing album, Lion Babe just released an amazing album, SWV just released a solid album.
We know it tickles your fancy but come on! No more more Anti articles PLEASE!
125k…2 years promo….countless of topless magazine covers and….few lukewarm songs. ????
remember when the titanics used to boast about how other artists release outside Nov/Dec so that they can top BB200 will flop sales

flopping for 2 years in a row?
.
hahahahaha
Whatever way you slice it, the release of Anti, Rihanna’s eighth studio album, has been a shambles. But that doesn’t necessarily mean it has been a disaster, especially as the recorded music industry finds itself in the middle of a huge recalibration of what does and what doesn’t count as success.
The shambolic part of it relates to precisely how it was released. It’s a yawning three years since Apologetic, breaking the singer’s near-perfect run of a new album a year since Music of the Sun in 2005 (excluding that little anomaly when there was no new album in 2008). For the first time in her career she’s taken a substantial break between records and, perhaps wary of jumping back on to the promotional treadmill, she and her team could be accused of overthinking things.
Anti is an album she has been talking about or alluding to for many months, all the time refusing to confirm a precise release date. She unveiled the artwork back in October at the Mama gallery in Los Angeles (intended subtext: this is a very serious and artistic project, thanks). The next month, she launched an incomprehensible website, ANTIdiaRy that was part “immersive” trailer and part marketing platform for Samsung. Still no release date, though.
On 25 January she tweeted a picture of herself wearing gaudy headphones with the tag “listening to ANTI” followed, for some reason, by a balloon emoji. The anticipation was building for a 29 January release but then the wheels came off two days early. Anti suddenly appeared on Tidal, the streaming music subscription service she has a stake in and acts as a celebrity ambassador for. Except it wasn’t supposed to.
Tidal initially blamed a “system error” and pulled it, trying to laugh it off. Rihanna then took a decision to make it available to download for free. Another Tidal representative, however, told Spin that it was an error caused by Universal, parent company of Rihanna’s label, Roc Nation. Angry finger pointing ensued. On Tuesday, she announced that the album was available on iTunes.
Maybe it was all meticulously planned to play out this way but it really makes you wonder if “p**’s ear” was the marketing angle from the off.
Even so, Rihanna was not technically out of pocket for these free downloads, as a deal with Samsung had already paid for 1m copies to be given away as part of a promotional push, linking into a wider branding deal estimated at $25m.
Having a major brand bankroll free music is nothin
Ain’t nobody got time for that book u just wrote. At least attempt to punctuate.
I found a pic of Molly flip flopping @ss.

LOL @ these random usernames and the hive fuming up and down this post .. y’all need .. letting someone whom you don’t know get you this bothered
need mental evaluations*
Anyway! Now that the smoke and mirrors have been cleared! Im super excited for the Queen!!! IM REALLY HOPING SHE IS REALISING A NEW SINGLE AT THE SUPER BOWL!!! ?????
If she releases a new song r.i.p to the anti era kiiii
Yes she probably will use that promo to her advantage
yea b****!!! u mad?
lol .. its “releasing” dummy
I saw that starving african bum Centurion trying to come for me in the other frih post
.
I double dare his Boxers supermarket foodstamp welfare recipient a$$ to pop of now
This is a Rihanna post but as usual yall talking bout me.
Why are you talking to yourself tho?
Rih is not bothered clearly she got paid 25 million to give away a million free albums! What is hard to comprehend that?! Instead of spending millions of dollar on promo she got paid millions. This album whether you like it or not was a game changer in how artists make revenue from there albums! 25 million from this deal is phenomenal and so is the album! A masterpiece I love every song! Work will be a hit and her tour is not flopping by any means
When will the WW numbers be in?
Ayyyye. #1 album. Congrats Rihanna.
LMAOOOOOOOOO You look so stupid b****!! All of that trolling for 125k + 460 tsk
and still a flop 175K
.
much like your worthless multiple african diseases having a$$
Having a major brand bankroll free music is nothing new. Groove Armada did it with Bacardi back in 2008 but the most direct parallels here are Jay Z giving away 1m copies of Magna Carta Holy Grail in July 2013 to owners of certain (them again) Samsung handsets and U2 offering Song Of Innocence to every iTunes customer in September 2014. The Jay Z album was deemed a success but the U2 album faced a huge backlash, prompting Apple to release a software workaround for those customers who didn’t want it but still found it pushed on to their iPhones and iTunes libraries.
Rihanna tweeted her boast of Anti passing 1m downloads in just 15 hours. Tidal claimed a further 484,833 copies were download and paid for, which would theoretically be deemed chart eligible. A deluxe version of Anti went on to iTunes at midnight on 28 January, from which any sales would count towards the chart. A physical release will follow on 5 February.
Chart tracking body Nielsen, however, disputed the Tidal sales, adding to the sense of shambolic momentum that seemed to be gathering around the album. According to the New York Times,Nielsen said that Anti sold fewer than 1,000 copies in what was a very short first chart week,although a source with access to the sales data said its total sales were a minuscule 460.
On 29 January, US record label trade body RIAA announced that Anti had already gone platinum based on streams and downloads (well, those that were paid for by customers).
This is where tabulations get convoluted as the RIAA counts streams as well as individual tracks (through a formula it terms “album equivalent sales”), so none of this is based on “pure” sales of the album as a whole. Indeed, on 1 February the RIAA changed how it bestows gold and platinum “sales” on albums whereby 1,500 audio or video streams is taken as the equivalent of 10 track sales which, in turn, is taken as the equivalent of one album sale. Confused? You’re far from the only one.
Invariably Anti will be measured against the blockbusting success of Adele’s 25 (global sales of over 15m at the start of January),but it was only available as a paid download or on CD/LP. There was no streaming component to 25 and that puts it in its own ecosystem, wonderfully out of step with pretty much every other album released today. So to line Anti up against 25 and find it lacking in old-fashioned sales terms is haughtily missing the point.
Defining Anti as a success or as a failure utterly depends on the lenses through which you choose look at it. And how you look at it will invariably only tell part of its story. At this early stage in its release cycle, it sits somewhere between a massive free download, a streaming sensation and a lukewarm purchase. The point, however, is that the charts have changed in recent years and therefore the yardstick of success is being forced to change with it in lockstep.
Gangnam Style, for example, sold enough downloads in 2012 to get it to No1 in 37 markets, but it was YouTube where it really exploded, with over 2.5bn views to date. U2’s No Line On The Horizon in 2009 was, for them, an underwhelming seller but the related 360 tour was the highest-grossing in history. Then there are markets like Sweden where streaming is so far advanced that Spotify plays are really the only game in town and CD and download sales have gone the way of the wax cylinder.
Plus it is important to remember that Anti still isn’t available on CD or any other physical format, which global trade body IFPI reports accounted for 46% of global record sales in 2014. Neither has Rihanna started touring the album.
It is like trying to call the end score of a football game before all the players have run on to the pitch. The final whistle is still a long time off so it’s sheer recklessness to immediately bet against Anti.
LMFAO anti got you writing dissertations
Lol. The essays this WHALE be typing in the name of ANTI is gona exercise all the fatty acids in just her sloppy arms real fast!

Then she’ll have unbalanced limbs!! This B!+€H will finally look as retarded as it sounds! Kiiiii

come and claim your flopping fav
YASSS BISH GATHER THE GIRLS
If Beyonce had sold anywhere near this low a figure, Rihanna’s idiot stans would be crashing someone else’s free wifi talking s**t on a device that they didn’t pay for themselves. These numbers are ridiculously low for someone whose stans claim is “the biggest pop star in the world.” Promo started 2 years ago. Wasn’t there anticipation? Any other “leading” pop star would have done at least 400k+ under the circumstances she’s had. And just about EVERY anticipated is “leaked” or somehow made available to hear before the street date, so don’t give me that bull either. Anti flopped. This just proves that Rihanna’s name doesn’t albums. The general consumer doesn’t see her as being worth more than however they feel about whatever random song she has out at the moment. She lives and dies by generic “trendy” producers material combined with childish buffoonery on social network sites.

given her another #1 album, earned her 2 more records under the belt which pushed her MUSIC stats waaaaay up LEGEND-Land hunnie… PLUS her 1st single off ANTI is another TOP 10 hit in India… Oooops I meant the BILLBOARD HOT 100 very much RELEVANT chart!

SEETHE on “her blondejesty’s” minions!! Kii
YAAAAWN Still writing novel’s nobodies reading!?!? The struggle to become a relevant writer is real!!! ?????
the moment she doesn’t cling to Fistopher she suddenly flops 😀
Screaming! Not her debuting with less than Royalty. Is her Tour sold out yet?
I can’t at the 10000 excuses and lowering of standards for this tragic era.
such an ageing flopping pxssy patting deceiving creep
Anti Success : The Empty Seats Deceiving Tour is not sold out yet and its starting soon
.
seems like she’ll be flopping in all fronts this era
Where’s Mark? Why isn’t he defending his fav? He had so much to say to me.
No one like you, yet you’re still here.
Ewwww
Instead of stalking MARK u should immediately call a state of emergency for you LOST pride girl. Pathetic!
she must consider sücking off Eminem for the third time so she can atleast know what a #1 looks like this era
Why are the sales so low? this is unbelievable not impressive at all until is going to go number one again especially after the Grammys I hope Beyoncé puts out something soon ! Love on the brain is my song tho !
I was gonna say that maybe a flop will do Rhi wonders. Look at what it did for Gaga. But then I realized Gaga has talent and the comparison went away.
Artpop still managed to debuted with 285k though
*256K
and dead at this making Artpop look like a massive smash.
Im not trying to make ArtPop look like s***.
The bottom black as line is, the Navy is a bunch of self dragging hypocrites.
I’ve never even had an issue with you Rosie. So lets not.
Ooops! I know u dont care too much for Gaga. Thought you said that I was trying to make ArtPop seem like a “massive hit”. Just re-read your comment lol. My bad but yeah I agree. ArtPop SLAYED comparison to Anti.
Why do you guys call Artpop a flop when it did better numbers than today’s current pop stars? Go quit paying attention to what the media says
Because to date it still hasn’t scanned a million copies stateside, which is not at all acceptable for someone who is/was touted as some kind of superstar.
125 k real downloads is all she could attract with her 1st album in 3 years?
.
is this the bxtch our faves muat be afraid of ? the one who sells 460 copies and cheatsc her way into Pt certification and upper part of the Hot100 via payola?

FLOP, with $25 million dollar promo, $5.99 discount, and doing the up most, she couldn’t even outsell Bangerz, I can’t.
And ArtFlop is already swan diving down the iTunes charts faster than an Ashanti CD in 2012. I can’t.
Reply
Please go play in some traffic.
Aww you mad huh?
So, what, less than 20K more than Honeymoon.
One coming from “biggest global pop star/black Madonna/fashion icon!!!1”
The other coming from an apparent “Tumblr artist”
???
And dead at Frih actually selling less than Florence
I thought you were 6 feet under. You still breathing?
Lol people keep saying “she gave away free copies”… No giving away implies they were received. She forced 1,000,000 copies on Samsung users phones. A big percentage of those 1,000,000 people didn’t want, intend to buy or intend to listen or not even Rihanna fans and I’m sure a bunch of them deleted that album to free up memory. I did the same thing when U2 magically put their album in my iTunes- no ma’am. Y’all actin like people were in line to get what she was giving away.
And in context of today’s climate of music, not horrible sales. She sold ok. In the context of which her stans try to make her out to be- tragic sales.
Hœ shut up
Girl idk why you’re upset, you got your FRIH copy of Anti and got sales rivaling all the B class celebs, you should be happy
lol thats not how the one million people got the album but carry on
and jkwrsnvd @ Anticlimax debuting at #7 in the UK. Thought she was queen there. That’s what the Salvation Army told me.
“Queen” selling Bombay Bicycle Club (RIP?) numbers. At least their last album debuted at #1.
But where’s your fave’s album on the BB 200? Kiiii, not Lana being Keri’s lesser.
200 is the # of STDs your fave has been infected with in the past week.
200 is the # of nips and tucks Lama got. Isn’t one of her flops called Eff my way to the top? Your fave is a Gags lessor and that’s why you’re mad.
You stay using both these tired ass drags when
1. Who the f*** cares about plastic surgery. Your fave needs some on her loose puss anyways since she f***** the entire rap industry
2. “F***** My Way To The Top” is obvious satire, dumbass bittch, and
3. Your fave is Fad’s lessor also. 125K isn’t even half of Artpop’s first week kii
Anti will probably struggle to outsell Ultraviolence worldwide since there’s literally no hit on the album except “Needed Me.” Rihslave’s entire music career relies on quick little hits that are forgotten by the next year.
Not to mention the ANTiCHRIST Tour won’t even outgross artGRAVE at this point.
career ended you dusty fat African b**** did you really think you exposed me in the last anti post? b**** step up
Hey boo ??
I’m sorry, do I know you?

you spend enough time on your local public library computers digging around the TGJ comment archives I thought you would’ve already known hun
These are excellent numbers. Imagine what the numbers would have been if they hadn’t GIVEN AWAY A MILLION COPIES!
“Imagine what the numbers would have been if they hadn’t GIVEN AWAY A MILLION COPIES!”

@ this entire era proving she is the definition of an industry PUPPET
FKA Twiggs?
Nah, I think you mean FeFe Dobson or is it Kelis??? lol
Jay z sold 500k after giving away a million albums. the Queen sold 610 k in thre m********* days digital only with a surprise drop. no excuse she flopped how you all gonna call Artpop and the Pink print flop but give her a pass this era this a flop and the navy will deal eat your hearts out
All things considered, these are decent numbers. She first, gave the album away for free & she had no physical release. Physical albums are a huge factor. Taylor, Adele & Meghan Trainor all sold more physical albums than digital, which is amazing.. She would have sold morei if she released the physical album with the digital. The album cover is awesome.
If this was Bey, you wouldn’t be saying these are decent numbers. lmao Be honest phony b****!
Exactly!
Yikes… What a flop.

The navy dragged everyone that sold more than their fave first week ,with waaayyy less promo and ya’ll are showing sympathy for this patheticness??!! I CAN’T!!!!!!! lol smmfh The standards have truly been lowered for this goat puppet!!!
If this was Beyonce, everybody would be having a field day. Especially LoveHandle’s dumb ass. Before “4” went Platinum he was dragging that album through the mud. Meanwhile, SamSung had to purchase Anti for it reach platinum status kiiii
Lmaooo so true!! This s*** is beyond basic bruh!!!!
Rihanna has never been that great an Album seller and sales have gone down roughly 20% in the three years since her last album was released
Kiii YAAAAASSSS!!! @Rosie @Career Ender @Tyler @Slay-Hive @JanStan draaaag fRih into the ABYSS for fading favs!!!! @ # jackie where you at?? IM LIVIIIIING 4 THE KII KII’S!!!!!!!!!
Part of the reason why pop stars flop is because people coddle them when s*** like this happens, rather than keep it all the way real. No, these are not decent numbers “considering…” They are extremely poor for someone who is considered to be a major act and plays to an audience of teens and twenty-somethings. If the latest XBox game or iPhone can have people standing outside for hours to spend hundreds of dollars and move a million copies in a week, then why can’t a $10 Rihanna do the same? This album had a name, a revealed tracklist, and an extensive promo campaign that started years ago, but only does 125k first week? No sir.
In honor of this tragic moment in fRih’s career. Im listening to fRih’s tragic ‘Higher’ track that renderd many ears useless kiii
Hahaha! Pathetic. I love reading all the excuses from the fan Base who had the audacity to drag 4 and artpop. Lets not make out physical sales are going to make a difference either. She won’t sell 1 million. Her UK numbers are even more atrocious.
This highlights why Rihanna neeeded to put out those yearly albums. What everyone said about how people wouldn’t wait for her if she took an extended break proved to be true. These stats are dismal. ANTI may be “platinum” for show, but it probably won’t scan a million copies in the US.
Unless these physical copies than the Navi are using as their last resort actually increase Frih’s sales next week, Anti won’t outsell My Everything by Ariana Grande in the US. Bookmark this.
because your fave couldn’t right?
Her own dumb fault. Who releases an album during quarter 1? Rihanna and Roc Nation were so terrified of facing Adele/25 that they ran from the holiday shopping season, where it probably would have sold slightly more. No she wouldn’t have been #1, but maybe she could have been in the zone of 200k. Oh well, lets not pretend that she isn’t already working on the followup to coverup this severe fall that probably WILL come out around Thanksgiving.
AR-TP-OP! Lol not Artpop slaying from the bottom.
Congratulations Rih. I like work. I can’t wait to see awkward drake in the video ?
Those are good points.
Samsung are tech geniuses. I wonder who called who. I can tell from calmly confident rihanna was in that interview that Samsung and her are both happy.
Start the promo. Work is really growing on me.
I think its funny how the navy seems to think this Samsung deal was good bizness… when in all actuality its like riding a bike with TRAINING WHEELS. No matter h** terrible i am at riding a bike ill never fall translates to no matter how much my album flops im still covered by Jayz/RocNation/Samsung. But at the end of the day that RIAA doesnt count its just PAPER… it means NOTHING unless the album actually sold upwards of that amout which 124,500 is nowhereNear the 600k bey sold 3 days which anti will take forever to sell if at all. If rih did everything right last year she could have sold 250-300k easy which is still pathetic compared to her biggest competitors.
KIII spill that hit tea!! The Navy are so delusional. Im living for this fail and messy ass era. It just totally showed us what a weak ass label s**** she still is LMFAO!!!
Not Weenier trying to call someone a troll when we all know its Centipied. He been MIA ever since that thing arrived HAHAHAHAHA
@DEATH_BED_UNCOVERED
GORL! Get you some grammatical punctuations while writing that editorial!!
Are we to read your obituary written like that?
Ain’t the medical centre looking for u? Rihanna’s umbrella ain’t that big chile.. I’m just saying.
Beyoncé’s self titled set sold over 300k in its 3rd week *inserts Kim’s tragic gif*
2 YEARS of promo, buzz singles, award shows performances, tour dates, album title events, Samsung adverts etc & still not gold in 1st week sales. Truly pathetic. Such low standards her fan base has, they’re applauding, calling it a slay. The jokes truly write themselves.
These numbers are tragic for Rihanna’s caliber.
Can someone please explain to me what faulty rusty malfunctioning gun Trosie is wielding coming for Rihanna considering its fav
I’m actually enjoying this album. It is like Rated R’s big sis. She did good.
My favourite track is kiss it better but I like work.
Hmmm. Well Frih released 3 singles last year and pretended they never existed. Maybe she’ll release a whole new album next week and pretend ANTI never existed omg screaming!!!!!!
Unapologetic 238k –> Anti 125k. Yikes the decline!
Wasn’t unapologetic fully released in stores and digitally when that was tallied? Lol
Anti isn’t even fully released as yet.
The reach… So amusing to watch.
so after she sold a million copies and another 175K she basicalLy made self titled Itune sales look like Ciara numbers? is that why s**** hive is pressed? sis just wax that forehead and chill out
lmaooooo b****!! Samsung bought those 1 Million! Try Again!!!!! Her name is no where as huge as Beyonce’s! Sowry!!!!! She can’t sell albums on her name alone. She needs extensive promo, a radio friendly single, new clown wig and still falls short!! BWAHAHAHAHA #YonceLessor
they were bought meaning rihanna sold more within her first day than beyonce did in a month. I understand why you’re mad I would be mad too lmao
Beyonce’s album was bought by ACTUAL PEOPLE babe. Not a company willing to help mask her irrelevance and none demand!!! YOU MAD!!!!!!! #460
Well then… Isn’t samsung Rihanna’s number one fan? Kiii
U mad boo.
How is Beyonce’s impact doing?
so was Anti. A sale is still a sale
Lmaooooo ur right she just needed help pushing units!! No tea no shade. Its all good lmaooo
Congrats Rih on that #1 b**** I knew it was coming and i knew she would sell more than 95k
Now release and promote Kiss it better thats my shittttttttt
Ms. Keri Peasant is so humble now!!!! kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii I know that’s right!!!
Good little pups
Stray hive darling you are running yourself thin. We all know fans come in many forms:
Casual
Die hard
Local
Global
Poor
Rich
The owner of Samsung had to have “okayed” this deal with management. He is a fan. It ain’t her fault he wanted her music instead of the others.
He
the singles artist owns her masters before the album artist. I guess selling both albums aND singles are important if you want to be free of label contracts 🙂
Right, to be eligible to even be considered for such an opportunity you have to at least own your music.
And If your music isn’t selling you will be paid dust.
Well she’s about to be paid dust boo!!! If you haven’t noticed, she is flopping!! Lmaoo
Lol girl who are u fooling? U couldn’t pay rihanna dust even if she paid u to.
Weren’t u one of those who were the first to download her music before u realized that it’s counted as sales?
U are forever mad love… But we can kiss it better for u. ?
Honey! I haven’t listened to that snoozefest album in DAYZZZZZ! You’re absolutely right I downloaded it for FREE, because that mess isn’t worth my coins! I wouldn’t be surprised if Samsung asked for their $25 Million back! lmaoooo I stan for the baddest b**** in the game, I have no reason to be mad boo. Kiss this ass too while you’re at it. 😉
???????????? wake me when Anti-relevancy reaches double platinum. (Sometime in 2020, if she’s still relevant) shade is too weak and its putting me to sleep.???????
Lol I’m happy for u stray.hive.
Lord knows you need that rest after all those sleepless nights perched under Rihanna’s post since her album dropped.
Don’t wake up til 2020. ?
No essays here. I’ll be quick. ANTI flopped. /theend
I prefer she does work at the Grammys
Go buy 460 more copies of AntiFlop, instead of worrying about what I’m doing with my time b****!
Lol if rihanna is truly flopping before her album is fully released everywhere then why are the hive so bothered?
I mean I can understand not liking her but this much dedication to hate only happens when someone is seen as a threat. There is said it.
*YAAAAWWWNNNSSSSS* b**** anti is a flop!!! Self titled sold over 300k the second and third week until physical copies were available. She’s a flop. What don’t you get about that?! and stop acting MF stupid! You know the Hive and Navy don’t like eachother. Ask Centurion dumb b****!
Nice look riri. I have the album on rotation and I’m loving kiss it better
This is disgusting!
FLOP! She’ll soon be doing Ciara numbers.
Sis Ciara has never sold 460 copies.
19K —-> 460 Ciara could NEVA kiii!!
The decline is too real! How does that egg taste GĀYvy??
Lol the blog-hopping hate that is dedicated to this girl must be coming from people who literally have no lives outside of the internet
like that unhealthy diabetic woman above and that unhealthy q**** v**** looking man called slay hive.
she debuted with 175K with Digital streams but yet Ciara couldn’t pull in 175K after 6 months. no one will be doing Ciara numbers not even Solange
B**** f*** you! and your weak ass troll account Ms. Bald kitty!!!! Anti is a flop. No amount of personal insults will change that. goodness you hoess are tired!!! lmaooo
Show your blog-to-blog-no-life-having-forever-hating face. You look like an unhealthy queen. Your second in command is that unhealthy fat woman above.
“How is Beyonce’s impact doing?”
.
We’ll see Sunday b****! 😉
YAAASSS MOTHA IS GOING TO SLAY ????
@JailBeyLust
Using cold plays shine. Can she get some chart shine and relevancy without being in a thong in front her child while on national tv? Let’s see.
DEATH AT THE DELUSIONAL K** SWALLOWERS.
Well fRih is busy tying records.
The Queen Sets records.
First Feme artist’s to win 6 grammys in a night
First Female artists to simultaneously top BB single/album UK singles/Album charts. (She did this with DIL)
First female arists to have all her album’s debut at #1
First Female and YOUNGEST artist to win the legendary Legends Award from the World Music Awards
Female artists that owned the 00s with more than 60platinum/gold certifications
Topped many decade ends list for song of the Decade with Crazy In Love
Most nominated woman in Grammy history
Is considered by the GP and worldwide critic’s as arguably
the best entertainer of today! This has been argued since 2009 and her reign ain’t let up!!!
Beyonce is unbothered and will continue to break/set records. The only record fRih set and has thats notable is her 100 million singles in the US. But she won’t hold that for long. Taylor says hello and she’s 3 years younger. If her next era is as big as 1989 or bigger. She’ll surpass fRih no doubt. Theirs literally only a 12m singles gap between them kiii POORDAT
Lmaooooooo how cute. The fans of truest FLOPs are mad hun. Delusion- A pillar of comfort for mentally unstable.
And they blog hop for dear life sore adding that hate. No wonder why b***** commenters went ham on Beyonce’s blonde wig kiiii
B**** take this $5 and go purchase Anti mad hoeee lmaooooo
Can some sponsor this man a head reduction and some edges? Why is a grown man dedicated to hating on a superstar from blog to blog post to post all day everyday??
Don’t you go to school to further your education?
Keep your $5 because that’s all your begging jobless trolling free labour a** is worth Strayhive
SCREAMING!!!
B**** you sound mad as hell! Why you mad?! Post of pic of that ugg mugg to make this s*** fair. If not keep your bitter weak and lame valley girl reads to yourself b****! If I’m so much less of a person and I’m only worth $5, why are you seething over my worthless opinion sweety?! Is it becuase deep down inside of that bottomless pit ass of yours, you know what i speak is the truth! lmaooooo You can shade my looks or whatever else all you want boo. NONE of the MANY man I encounter ever complain. So that makes your opinion as worthless as your life b****! Get ta purchasing more copies of anti with your tip money b****!!!
StrayHive did your unhealthy friends call u up to ensure you take your meds?
Look all im saying is you better be paid for blog hours you be clocking because if not…
U need to get out of your delusion and smell the reality, which says YOU FAIL AT LIFE bruh.
Man up!! Do u even plan to reproduce? We don’t need another troll on steroids in this world.
B**** what, I know five year olds that can shade and read better than that. Hop off my n** sack b****! I’m not buying anymore copies of your faves album to help your salvation army looking ass! FOH Bitter doesn’t look good on you hun. I suggest you change!
So u bought ANTI? U helped her album to go number 1? Kiii ok. Now we know why u mad. U really never believed she would have gone number one.
Awhhhh Poor YOU. Now your broke azzz is hating from blog to blog post to post.
Rihanna consumes u day and night. U want to switch but u are hoping bey can magically rise and exceed Rihanna’s musical allocades. Mental health is real people.
7 hours of non-stop commenting in single post and there’s minutes between them, not hours. Why is Scrotūmless_Skidmark_hive busy littering every TGJ post? Does this Helmeted Hornbill looking ass fāg have a job, a social life or a sēx life? Go clean your fishy boy pūssy that has been caboosed by the entire crew.
DEATH!! 7Hrs and only 503 shares KIIII guess the GP finally realised fRih was trash. Glad Adele, Zayn and Drake are fighting for that #1 poor fRih! Lets hope she goes #1 since she couldn’t do self titleds #’s ?????
When you stan for the epitome of trash like Beybøla, of course you’re gonna spend time to what’s equivalent to normal working hours on a single post. LMAO
Rihanna is the only artist in history to surpass 200 million record sales before the age of 30. https://t.co/LJ5tZoZiLx

Rihanna becomes the BEST SELLING BLACK FEMALE artist of ALL TIME and 2nd Overall.
–
According to RIAA, Rihanna has total certified albums US sales of 10 million & US digital single sales of 79 million bring her total to 89 million records sales in the US and 230 million total record sales worldwide. Rihanna is the best selling digital artist of all time.
–
1. Madonna is the Best selling female artist of all time with worldwide record sales of 300 million and counting. No female artist has sold 300 million beside Madonna.
2. Rihanna comes in at #2 with 230 million worldwide records sold.
3. Mariah Carey is the 3rd best selling artist of all time with over 200 million records sold worldwide.
4. Whitney Houston is the 4th best selling artist of all time with over 200 million records sold worldwide.
5. Celine Dion is the 5th best selling artist of all time with over 200 million records sold worldwide.

When will Beybøla? Is that why jew mad? ???
Not one of the biggest trolls complaining about others dragging their fave. Hypocrite much??? You can post all the irrelevant rihanna receipts all you want to. Anti-edges is a flop and she had a great run. It’s over now! 🙁 R.I.P. to fRihanna *bows head in prayer* lmaooooo
When it comes to numbers, Beybøla is not even close to Rihanna; he/she not on Rihanna’s level. Exactly who was it who said “Men lie, Women lie, numbers don’t”? ? Girl sit down. ???
Well why is fRihanna flopping then?? Care to explain 460urion????……….. lmaooooooo
Why can’t Queen Bey, King B, #TeamLongevity, the most powerful singer in world, Beysus, Beyonce>>>God get a #1 hit record after almost a decade?
Was that updated recently?
I like Celine over Madonna but I also know more Celine songs than Madonna songs so I guess I’m biased.
Anyway congrats Rihanna! That’ impressive. She wasn’t even born in the US like all those listed names.
It’s a bit old because Rihanna has 102 million certified digital singles sales in the US alone instead of 79 million.

So thats 112 million records sold in the us. Ill be back with IFIP. Also don’t try and dispute those RIAA links. Clearly their knew. It has Daya, Kendrick Lamar, Shawn Hayes all up in that bitxh lol
“…NONE of the MANY man I encounter ever complain. ”
So many things wrong with that statement but let us not even….
Like I said u look like an unhealthy queen and I hope for the sake of living- your support group ensures that you take your meds daily.
We don’t want any deaths here. Like your unhealthy oversized woman friend above. Like sands in a hour glass.. Only time will tell
LMAOOOOO B**** you are really mad aren’t you????! No man, NO life, No Selfie and NO Double platinum universally acclaimed album either. Poor thing. I’m enjoying all of this seething *Back to my blunt*

I have never seen such an insecure fan base as the pest. You can’t bully Beyonce into an icon or a legend with basic music and movies. Rihanna is the one breaking records and has her name next to legends WITH NUMBERS, not silly little opinions, like thinking Beyonce sits anywhere near MJ in ANYTHING! Rihanna is the highest selling black female artist of all time. 2nd female period.
Shut up hypocrite biitch!!!! LIKE FLOP FLOP FLOP!!!!!!!! (**When Tyler clocked the BROKEvy**) LMAOOOOOOOO
Looool Listen, MARK argues logically. That’s why it takes 2-3 different persons from that insecure fan base to dispute
most things he says. I just can’t take when he goes below the belt for people’s kids. But outside of that he is forever winning arguments with logics.
LMFAO! Welp! This bìtch mad and about to shìt itself. Men lie, women lie, numbers don’t. 😆 Stop crying and come back when Beybøla is on Rihanna’s level. In the words of Joseline Hernandez: “Get with the winning team høe”.

Fail fail fail. Madonna Whitneys and Celines numbers were MAJORITY ALBUM SALES. HOW DARE YOU PUT FRIH AMD HER .99 SINGLE SALES IN THE SAME CATEGORY!! YOU TRIED IT BISH AND THIS IS IN ALL CAPS CAUSE IM SCREAMING THAT YOU TRIED IT!!!!! NOW BACK TO THE RIVER STYX FROM WHENCE YOUR DELUSION AND THE ANTI ALBUM WERE SPAWNED!!!
SCREAMING!!!!! DEATH!!!!! CLOCK AND CONQUER BISH!!!! CLOCK AND CONQUER!!!!
Ok! I know the delusion is real but to see the nerve of this heaux trying to sneak Rihannas name into that list of legends. The LINE WAS CROSSED. The bish must work for Samsung trying to make this album a thing. Not on my watch satan!
“NOT ON MY WATCH SATAN!” GUUURRRLL I CAN’T ????? (Throws Grammy at fRihs Forehead)
DIABETES UNBOTHEREDIn the United States, Anti received a platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) two days after its release as a result of Samsung purchasing one million copies of the album in advance that were then given away as a free download, part of the $25 million deal signed by Rihanna in 2015. [87] The album debuted at No. 27 on the Billboard 200 on February 1, 2016. [88] Although over 1.4 million copies were downloaded from Tidal,Billboard and Nielsen Music did not recognize the count of the sales, because they were distributed by Samsung. [89] According to Nielsen’s figures, [citation needed] 460 is the number of actual albums sold in the United States, [90] but the album had 4.7 million streams and 126,000 sales of individual tracks, making a total of 15,896 album equivalent units. [90][91] The low actual album sales represented only a few hours of sales after the free giveaway period ended.
Actually those sales were not after the giveaway period it leaked before the free period. I know cuz I read it leaked for a few minutesminutes and sold that before I ever registered to get my free copy.
Kiii The only exercise this ogre gets is from punching keys on it’s keyboard ???
Beybola culd NEVER get on 460-ANNAS level… not even with a 2 year prior leak & zero promo.
Some people really have no lives on TGJ. The back and forth hate is unnecessary. I don’t get it. Just congratulate and move on.
This album rollout was messy as hell but undeniably successful.
Will she keep it up? Maybe, maybe not.
SELF TITLED >>> CANTi. 80k (3 hrs) >>> 460 (3 hrs). PARKWOOD ENT >>> WEST SHITTYROAD.
Lmfao!!! I’m so EXCITED for Sunday!! I hope she drops a new single! THE SLAYAGE ON THAT STAGE IS GUNNA BE ??????
Just admit it was a flop stop playing a numbers game and then get mad when the numbers aren’t in your favor. Anti is a flop but that doesn’t mean you can’t like the music just humble yourselves because no fan base is paid to brag for an artist
Seriously nothing can b considered a flop after only one week as a partial release. Lol the damn album wasn’t even in stores. Now if 6 months down the line and it still sits at 172k then you may comment
To the flea Hives:
For Her Blonde to even be in Rihanna’s shoes she will have to lock a deal this big.
125k is tragic.
Btw reading these comments…ugh! Why is the beeHIV always on other signers post. Rihanna is great. Beyonce is great. Hell even Ciara is alright. I’m just proud that black women are successful. I try not to read to much into stuff but it’s like B fans make me not even like her and it’s not her fault that a lot of her fanbase trash talks about other artist. Like if anything Adele stans are the only ones that can legitimately talk crap about other people’s sales.
Rihanna album isn’t out yet but nice since people have heard the songs
