Mystic Boy Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I LOVE how haters are getting MAD I can show countless of threads where nobody expected her to pass the 300.000 copies sold....I'm so glad she passed this symbollic mark , it's really good considering the ignorance from radios and haters know that... Why are Rihanna fans flooding this thread? Are they mad cause Gaga sold nearly the same without the huge radio support and 9 weeks #1 hits?

I mean, she could've easily given away 1,000,000 copies of her album like a certain someone did, if you want to talk discounts. The Clapback OT: Keep it cute navy's Edited March 31, 2017 by Yog

At The Disco did, etc... So, yeah, not really "impressive" for Joanne at all.

Bey_Rihstan Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) Yea don't know why Rihanna was brought up in here. She outsold Joanne Lolz I could be wrong. But I'm not. Edited March 31, 2017 by Bey_Rihstan

I mean there were girls who were kiiing and cackling cuz Joanne wasn't even gonna sell 100K WW in its 1st week. And now that it outdid everyone's expectations, they wanna act brand new. lmao
Bey_Rihstan Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 No but honestly good for Gaga. I didn't expect her to turn this era around

But I'm not. You're not. She did...which is why the back and forth is null & void. Until she outsells Rihanna there's literally NOTHING to talk about (IF it ever happens. Theres about a 2k difference in weekly sales currently ) But I will say it's hilarious to see Monsters one minute claim Million Reasons is a hit song then the next claim Joanee sold so well with no hits.

FentyxTesfaye Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Why is Anti being brought up as if it's not more successful by a long shot? Anti has three top ten singles and has sold 645k despite being given away along with nearly 2B streams without discounting a single or the album. ? Not to mention Gaga has performed at an event viewed by more than 100M people and then the Grammy awards the following week on top of countless discounts. Congrats to Gaga but I'm just not getting why anybody in this thread is trying to downplay the success of Anti especially in comparison to Joanne which is selling nearly the same amount of copies each week despite being released nearly nine months after Anti which most of you keep bringing up making this look even worse

FentyxTesfaye Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Also many Gaga stans on ATRL constantly tried to act like Anti's numbers were horrid but suddenly 500k is amazing for Gaga? Make up your mind.

The album was discounted for like two weeks. Let's chill

She barely had a hit until now, yet sold 500k. Rihanna had as always great radio support and basically sold just as much

And yes you are hating on Gaga's success. That's your whole point being in this thread.
yamiyuuuu Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I thought it wouldn't cross the 500k barrier when it was released, so congrats Gaga!
sadnews Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 impressive considering she had no big radio support
