The multiple posts mentioning her in this thread say otherwise but whatever.

That’s because your Rihanna fan friend decided to show up.  What don’t you get?

That was a perfectly sensible post  

you don't think there's demand for a new rihanna album ?

Meanwhile her total Spotify streams when divided by 1500 barely compromise 50% of her total streaming albums units in Chartmasters. Definitely something fishy about those album sales.

You lost the plot of your own trolling it appears.  That user was not even discussing Rihanna.

Spotify only has 31% of the streaming market.

That's only the revenue, not the quantity of streams. Midnights opened with 170M first day steams in Spotify while in Amazon Music it only did 8M.

Spotify has more premium users than Apple Music, Amazon Music and Tidal combined together and far more non premium users.

Because Spotify is just one service for audio-streaming. There are multiple others, as well as video streams too.

She ended 2022 with 14 billion streams from Spotify, but had 36.6 billion combined streams across all channels, that makes for a Spotify share of just 38%.

Richest female artist on earth. 1.7. billion while sitting at home and having babies. Others have to tour their existences off and release back to back music no one will remember in a few years 

How do you listen to Rihanna’s net worth? Does it give everything you were hoping for from a new album?

[Frozen99]

that's highly impressive and well-deserved

That's on you then.

 

'SOUR' also had finished 2021 with 5.5 billion streams on Spotify, but had 16.9 billion globally the same year as per the IFPI, which is as official as it gets and that's once again a Spotify share of just 33%. Stans simply overrate the dominance of Spotify.

Imagine bragging about net worth that didn't even come from music which is what we're talking about here

 

OT: Taylor legend

Not 'music no one will remember in a few years' when your fave is literally the face of the comment 'Quick Lil' Singles' Beyoncé made in 2013 

 

Spoiler

Rihanna trolls will never fail to not make it in a Swift thread then the other Navy swarm in and start acting like a Swiftie started it  the gaslighting. Why are yall even in a TS thread? I just know yall are just waiting for the bait

 

Coping with their fave making a billion dollars as a beauty mogul (enjoy listening to 50 shades of concealer i guess) while complaining and crying in the next post for new music, the duality of man i guess.

I remember when the "monthly listeners" were not relevant and it was even a reason to drag an artist because it was inorganic and only reflected the amount of playlisting. What happened? 
 

btw congrats

Because Taylor is also averaging 95 million Spotify streams daily while achieving 100 million monthly listeners. It is just so impressive that no other artist is doing it like her. Plus Spotify itself even tweeted about it. 

Swifties are still well aware that "monthly listeners" is just a 'meh' metric but it is still a nice addition to her long list of achievements 

 

[mael]

100M being Her daily average is unpreceded

 

[Lille]

The way every Taylor-related thread gets infested with Rihanna stans, followed by comments about Rihanna being a billionaire. F***ing clockwork.

 

Y'all getting some dividends when Fenty goes public?

Chartmasters is already inflating something as trivial as digital single sales by nearly 10M in Taylor's overall career score and I am not even counting fake downloads, how much can we trust his algorithm about non premium Spotify streams and other platforms which are not even publicly reported?

 

24 Hour Record

Lover - 79.5M Spotify

Lover - 35.7M Apple Music

 

Midnight - 180M Spotify

Midnight - 8M Amazon Music

 

Spotify - 220 Premium users (500M total users)

AM - 85M users

 

Spotify opening daily streams for Lover outnumbered 2x of Apple Music streams by 8M. I don't know where are you going to find those extra billions of streams outside of Spotify, maybe in Mars. Her US numbers are ... mostly fine (aside from streaming making a lot more easier to pull album units than before) however her international numbers are more questionable outside of Anglosphere, which is ironic because Apple Music is radically smaller than Spotify outside of Anglosphere. 

 

Continue streaming Spelling is Fun, spamming those numbers slapped in articles all I care.

It's the daily listeners count that is massive here. 95 millions?! And growing?!?
The 100m monthly stat is just the cherry on top.

She has 31 billion streams on YouTube alone. Just counting YouTube and Spotify, that's already 60M of her 74M streaming units.

Most of her Youtube views are old though. How much have they increased since 2020s?

And the formula for YT views is 6200=1 album unit or maybe 12000 equals an album unit.

Don't bother.  Some people refuse to engage with facts when it counters the narrative they have made up in their head.
