I kno in this day in time those number are good but then when I see people likr swift pullin in triple+ those numbers its like yoo 200,000 ain’t shit just think about it only 200,000 people baught that album the first week and there’s billions of people in these 50 states
its only 360mil. which 150mil are productive. out them, who do u think listen to rap. on that note, just listened to nicki and em romans revenge, i am now a fan! she is thee shit!
she murdered em on it too!
blasphemy.
people, people why are yall so impressed with 200k! taylor swift sold a million in her first week just a couple of weeks ago, who DOES THAT ANYMORE?? and the first poster is right, for rhianna to have 9 #1′s and only push 200k is a lil off, lol basically it means people like jamming to her songs on the radio enough to request it, but they dont love it enough to buy it! and susan boyle beating all three of them? #cmonson….. NO excuses
The music industry is changing Rihanna sold 200,000 with the #2 song on the Billboard Hot 100. While Kanye currently doesn’t even have a single charting in the top 50 on the Hot 100 or on any other Billboard list besides Rap and he’s gonna move 600,000.
Nicki close behind? She slated for 150 to250
Nicki is no where near close behind kanye! But 150_200 units aint bad for a new comer and her trash music.so proud of kanye! Love the cd..rihanna’s was pretty good as well.
Yeezy’s album is dope!! Album of the year hands down!
Rihanna is positioning herself in a nice space. 200K and her whole audience doesnt buy music is excellent.
Please that is hardly excellent. Especially for an artist that has multiple number one hits.
ITS ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD ACTUALLY!!! Ri ri didnt have that much marketing this time around.
Rihanna sold pretty well with not alot of promotion and THE ONLY GIRL IN THE WORLD wasnt a worldwide success like it should have been, so WHATS MY NAME which took rihanna back to her roots and it works well. Go rihanna!!! Im happy and the album grew on me, she did the damn thing! i love the CHEERS DRINK TO THAT, SKIN, S&M, MAN DOWN, FADING, COMPLICATED, WHATS MY NAME!! sheS maturing people, why wont people understand that…….
I didn’t even knew rihanna dropped an album already i though it’s dropping next year whoa at me
Nicki will actually post great numbers. She’s expected to move around 375 to 425k . Thats incredible for a new artist, and a female rapper.
RIHANNAAAAA ISSS THEE BEEEESST .
damn Ye sold 100k something the very first day so you know Yeezy will beat rihanna
I’m sorry, I love Ri, but this was her WORST album by far & ppl actually bought it??? fukking WOW!!!!!!!!!!
That song “S&M” off this album makes my dick hard.
weirdo
