This is about OP trying to shade Taylor using Rihanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I think she will do well but not enough to surpass Taylor or Adele. She will easily outdo 30 longevity-wise tho. K bye for now, Sunshine. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holiest Dreams Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 People thinking she’ll debut with 1M People thinking she’ll even come close to Taylor in any metric except singles success She’ll do well, but don’t set her up girls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RihFenty20 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 A steaming event maybe. I expect Bad Bunny level domination, if not better. But good luck getting that album out first. She’s had so many false starts that I don’t expect anything to come from this why are swifties already in this thread already making it about their talentless fav. Like go away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 28 minutes ago, Ari29 said: I understand people feeling like OP is a set up but realistically when Rihanna drops it’s going to be a massive pop culture event just based on her name alone. There’s no way she can lose unless the material is just absolute trash which has never been the case with Rih A lot of the young adults-teens-kids today don’t know Rihanna the musician. Rihanna also never had a dedicated fanbase. It doesn’t matter what she releases, people will say “it wasn’t worth the 7 year wait!.” Unfortunately, I do think she waited too long.

Miichael Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 59 minutes ago, est. in 90s said: Also, Adele's numbers for 25 were rare and I don't think we will see that type of success replicated from an artist in a while, especially in this climate where sales are practically down for everyone across the board. I agree but honestly, I don't think we'll ever see 25 numbers ever again. I can't see there ever being an artist again with the same level of hype and broad appeal that Adele had post-21, and even if that type of artist does come along one day, the sales climate has changed so much that 25 numbers would be very difficult to match. I think 1M first week is still possible for a really huge artist with a huge event release, but not 3.38M like 25, I think the days of that being possible are over.

Gerardo Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 If Adele and Kendrick’s comebacks proved something is that the album won’t smash just cause it’s been a long a time since the previous one, 30 and MM&TBS might’ve been acclaimed but they definitely didn’t connect with the GP that much and ended up underperforming if R9 is well received then yeah, it’ll be a ******* smash, probably +300k SEA, and with pure sales and TEA she would cross 400k, but like I said, it needs to be the right material Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a little off topic but Blackpink are poised to do 3M global sales this week with their new album. It’s sales mixed with streaming but they’re selling a lot in pure sales too. Not quite as “”impressive”” as 25 selling 3M+ pure in one week, but still pretty damn close, and pushing 3M Album units in one week any sort of way is a feat in and of itself. but back on topic, Rih is not doing 1M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flanders Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 She will definitely come back swinging and smashing.

Because her streams will be massive. Sales are up in the air, but there’s hella hype for her and I think people who otherwise don’t purchase albums anymore would for her.

You would know OT : I am sure she will do well but do some of you realize that her biggest debut is 238k? Streaming can help her but expecting 500k or 1M is a big set up, not like we will know the truth in the next few years though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
