iHype. Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) It's crazy how well music sales have held up in the UK. Population comparison, 8 albums did over 2M+ which is over 10M+ with US's population. 8 albums doing Diamond #'s in this decade, compared to US having 1. 35 albums have also done 1M, which is equivalent to 5M with US's population. In US, 3 albums have done 5M this decade. Edited January 28, 2017 by iHype.

Saintlor Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Why does Beyonce only have one album in this list & that album is #74? I thought she was bigger than that here
Kyoto Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 I love how Beyoncé's best album is on this, she breathed life into that record. I want her to try again with that sound.

So sad Nearly 200k*, but what does it have to do with Loud being one of the best selling albums of the decade? Anti is urban, all of Rih's urban songs flopped in the UK (for her standards), now if she makes another pop album like Loud/GGGB/TTT (her 3 million selling albums there), it'll go 2x plat at least. At least Anti had Work (9th biggest song of 2016 there) and Needed Me went Gold even though it wasn't a single in the UK. Oh and TIWYCF is the 5th biggest song of 2016 in the UK, goes to show that they're thirsty for pop music from rihanna.
Darren-5-08 Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Adele is a selling machine. The Fame was such a BEAST in the UK Almost 10xPlatinum If only we had a Diamond certification
RockStarShit101 Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Loud was a massive pop album in the UK. I remember those days of slayage!
