Blue Rose Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 7 minutes ago, Erreur2 La Nature said: Yeah, guess we all have a different opinion about everything so their opinion is not more important than yours or mine. I was simply saying that Rihanna has had 2 huge songs in 2016, Beyoncé 0. 5 platinium songs for Rihanna, Beyoncé 0. 1 video reaching 1B and a second one at IDK 950M. Beyoncé is struggling to get 50M views. This is not an opinion. These are based on real numbers Both in the US and globally, Beyoncé was bigger than Rihanna. These are facts, not opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not defending Rihanna especially since I hate Work, Needed Me and most of the songs on Anti that are unlistenable to me. But as I proved it, she has been, surprisingly, very successful on all formats and everywhere. Beyoncé's only success was the album, and that's great, but let's not go too far saying she was more successful than Rihanna in 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Lemonade is not on Spotify either. So that 1 million giving away bullsh*t needs to be gone from existence. Of course it won't count. Stop using it as a excuse. its not bull****, as its copies sold, she got paid for it and does add to the success of the album. plus it does affect the album's eventual total.

She wasn't on the biggest streaming site so it's a bit hard to be successful there but you still use it as a drag. Remove Rihanna from Spotify, do you honestly believe ANTi's singles would've performed the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystic Boy Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) After the results of the Billboard YE artists charts , Navy told ATRL that IFPI would spread the truth and state that Rihanna and Anti would be bigger than LEMONADE.............Well well well .. Damn, it wasnt even available in Spotify or Apple music, her endless power is unreal Haters ALWAYS lose against Beyoncé, it's alway a guilty pleasure ..........

We deserved to know the truth. Thank God, IFPI spilled the tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying people are acting like she actually had music and videos on streaming and just didn't do well when it's just not true. Both did did good in different ways.

Eternium Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Why is David Bowie above Adele? She sold more singles, she sold more albums, received more streams and grossed more on tour. Idgi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NX127 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) This includes the record sales this year of their career releases, not just Lemonade and Anti. Not to mention, it does not include This Is What You Came For (technically a Calvin-produced Rihanna song, bigger than any Beyonce song ever), so Rihanna wins.
