Question:

What is the rule regarding crediting and soundtracks?

 

Beyonce is a credited vocalist on 13/20 tracks of the main edition of Dreamgirls OST that went #1 on the Billboard 200, and 19/33 on the deluxe edition (including instrumentals/score/scrapped film tracks).

I think it’s been changed since the release of the Dreamgirls OST. It isn’t listed on her Billboard chart history, so I’m assuming they don’t count it. I can’t find the album at all on the Billboard website, though.

I mean if it does count then she loses her consecutive #1s streak since it debuted top 10/20 and reached #1 like a month later.

Her record is specifically for studio albums, so a soundtrack wouldn’t have any effect.

GGGB is 6X Platinum, ANTI is 3x Platinum (will definitely hit 4X) and still charting after 3 years and spent 30+ weeks in the top 10, and 6/8 of her albums are multiplatinum (I believe all are Platinum eligible or higher)

 

So how exactly is she a singles artist...

ANTI is charting because people are basically streaming its 2 singles, Work and Love On The Brain. That's it.

Now the line that separates albums and singles is basically non-existent but Rihanna was never about albums and it's fine.

Beyonce will end with the most number 1 albums

Yet there are multiple album tracks with over 100M+ streams on Anti that weren't heavily playlisted, sent to radio, promoted, etc. ??? So obviously people are using the whole album. If you took out the 4 singles, the album would still have like 600M+ streams if not more (I can't be bothered to do the math).

I mean...not when Madonna and Barbra are still active. 

This decade alone Barbra and Madonna had 2. Beyonce had 3. 

 

I can't imagine Beyonce starting to pick up the pace of her releases now that she's getting closer to 40. But she could do it if she remains in the industry for decades to come for sure.

That’s how “SPS/TEA” works.

 

The vast majority of pre-2019 albums on the BB200 are charting solely due to streams that specific songs/singles are currently receiving, and the newly released albums are being heavily pushed by SEA.

 

What the hell are you talking about?

 

:doc:

Nicki being the ONLY female rapper to have two albums that went #1. Everybody doesn't have that.

Uhm, Anti did what it did because a) Samsung bought 1m copies and b) Work’s streams. When your album is x-platinum because of a handful of songs, that makes you a singles artist lol.

 

Gaga and Taylor about to move up to six. Legends.

GGGB went 6x Platinum despite peaking at #2. Loud went 4x Platinum despite peaking at #3.

Artpop & Joanne barey scanned Platinum despite going #1.

 

Now Rihanna having the most Multi-Platinum albums of any female artist this century (7) is a HUGE kii.

Rihanna not having enough fans to debut at number 1 7 times in a row is a kii regardless of how well her music was liked by the MASSES later on :lmao:  What you posted is completely irrelevant. 

First week sales are still extremely important and show the artists power, how much PULL they have and how big of a fanbase they got.

1) ANTI moved 3.5M units in the US without Samsung. 

2) Needed Me outstreamed Work in the US.

3) ANTI has 2.3B streams on Spotify when you remove Work.

4) ANTI has 7 songs over 100M streams on Spotify - all of which are Platinum in the US - and 4 other songs eligible for Gold.

 

You tried, and you failed. ?

Ugh Britney would have at least 7 if Billboard hadn't done such a fraudulent and awful midweek rule change. I honestly think that was just the industry punishing her - no way should or would a rule change have gone through if Britney wasn't the one releasing that week.

 

Also Rihanna fans need to calm down :psyduck:

ANTI has 14 songs over 50M streams, 11 songs over 70M streams,  7 songs over 100M streams and 6 songs over 150M streams.

ANTI has close to 1 Billion streams on Spotify when you remove its 4 singles (950M).

You sound like boo boo the fool.

And we need to Remember that Madonna and Janet have some #2 albums with big first week sales. These albums could of debuted at #1 without the serious competition . Legends :clap3:

First week album figure for some of their #2 albums. 

Damita jo 381,000

Ray of light  371,000

20 Y.O 296,000

Erotica probably had good first week sales as well I just can't find them. 

 

The funny thing is Damita jo and Ray of light were both blocked by diamond albums. Janet was blocked by Usher's Confessions w/ his 4 #1 singles. And Madonna was blocked by Celine Dion and the power of My heart will go on from the Titanic soundtrack. ROL even sold 225,000 its second week but was still blocked :rip:

 

-

 

Also shout out to Janet for scoring #1 albums in 4 consecutive decades. Only popgirl besides Streisand to achieve this.

1986 Control (2 weeks at #1) 

1989 Rhythm Nation (4 weeks at #1)

1993 janet. (6 weeks at #1)

1997 The velvet rope (1 week at #1)

2001 All for you (1 week at #1)

2008 Discipline ( 1 week at #1)

2015 Unbreakable ( 1 week at #1)

Im sorry but people dragging Rihanna in this thread are delusional af. Id rather have an album that serves longevity  and can produce multiple hits than an album that will debut #1 and flop into oblivion later like for example Witness. ANTI was MASSIVE even if u dont include Work
