And?

Queen RiRi still has outsold light years ahead against Taylor's 190 million records

Would Taylor be able to do this, if RiRi was not on a 5-year hiatus?

Its not to be harsh, but...is da truth

Stream LOUD for clean ears

Loud, the Album that most of the navy call a playlist. 

 

That's the shade. To the navy, most of Rihanna's albums are playlists, not actual albums. Anti was the album they wanted, if it takes forever to deliver an epic follow up, it's worth it, not give out a half baked cake. Full of singles and fillers.

I haven't listened to a Rihanna song in years. Meanwhile, I listened to "Lover" like 5 times last week. 

Same honestly

I have the Good Girl Gone Bad and Lover CDs lol.

Good for Taylor tbh but when the person she's been compared to hasn't made new music in 5 years, I guess it speaks volumes. 

 

Also I read something from this month that Rihanna may release an album this year. It was the only source I could find that said anything like that so I doubt it's true. 

 

Be real cool if she did tho

Nah, the Navy LOVES LOUD. Im part of the fandom ever since 2017 and the love for LOUD by the fandom is crazy, heck some even consider it her best album.

Uhhh....Well LOUD was a cohesive body of work. Rihanna has been an album artist ever since Rated R but her artistry and acclaim peaked with ANTi, however albums like Rated R, GGGB, LOUD, Talk that Talk and Unapolegetic are amazing albums

This is The US, are we surprised. 

 

Like people on my timeline said, people prefer Mayo in America, they Stan numbers. 

 

Some people said, They actually believe. Rihanna will do more worldwide, everybody said. America can have Taylor, it's obvious. Outside the IS Folklore flopped, but America is too ignorant to acknowledge it.

You don't think Rated R was an album? That was my favorite Rihanna era. Anti is a close second tho.

This. Its just like how Rihanna overtook Britney as the most searched female on the internet. Because Britney is hardly active commercially and Riris haitus took out as an advantage to out-peak Britney

But in the end, everyone still acknowledges Britney as the most searched female in the internet

Same goes for Taylor passing Riri

I would not say it flopped, but it was still a decline from Lover's numbers. In the worldwide charts, Folklore was #1 just for a week or two, whereas it was #1 in the US for 7 weeks. Speaks volumes in my opinion. Also not to mention that Folklore only said 169k copies in its first week internationally compared to the ratio of its US sales which was 933k . 1989 was truly her last biggest era and from there onwards none of her albums to meet up to its standards.

And anyway, I feel like numbers aside each of these artists do different things. They also appeal to different time periods (as far as their strongest works go). 

 

Idk I love to see different women pull off different accomplishments for diverse reasons all around. 

 

But I'll def stan Rihanna and Britney more than Taylor cause they're my tastes.

Yes! Its nice to see female artist not just achieve "Most XXXX by a FEMALE artist" but instead "First artist to XXXX"

Same. Britney, Rihanna and Beyonce (despite Beyonce being so overhyped) are the Female Trinity of the century

I could definitely see Unapologetic and Loud as playlists more than concepts fleshed out but that doesn't make them less great. They're so much fun and have so many bops.

 

But to say Anti is the only album, and exclude Rated R?

Rated R and Anti are the ones my day one navy since 2005 debut say are her Best. 

 

GgGB is also up there, u Trust more of the Stan's that were there from the beginning vs. The ones discovering her. 

 

They've been there since day one, they know her more as the artist. To them loud was a disappointment coming from Rated R.

[Blackout2006]

Anyways when #R9 be out, watch it sell 500k units first week, become the best selling album of X year, biggest hit of X year, Most certified singles, Most awards won, snatch atleast 1 grammy, most critically acclaimed album of X year and so and so and throw Tay out of the place

It WAS. Iconic album. Like nothing I've seen or heard before in mainstream music both visually and with the music. Each and every song was fantastic. And it deserved way more love than it got in the first year.
