Imagine if Beyonce had put her album on Spotify and Apple Music.

Then maybe Lemonade would've sold less

 

OT: This is an artists ranking which also counts catalog sales & streams, but it's funny how you guys are so convinced that Lemonade was bigger than Anti yet y'all keep making threads about it over a year later, basically asking for validation. Also funny how Beyoncé was supposedly the biggest artist of 2016 according to her fanbase and she isn't even top 5 on that list.

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.

Probably not, but it's not Rihanna's fault if Beyoncé did those choices. We have to consider it as it is and not with theories and "if" everywhere.

Can you tell me how many records did both of Beyoncé and Rihanna sell in 2016 then ? That's cute to affirm this but show me the receipts.

I don't care about this argument but if you're going to make it, be informed. As quiet as it's kept, Beyoncé was the top-selling digital female artist in the US in 2016 with 6.4M songs sold (4.4M from Lemonade alone) according to BuzzAngle's annual report

LEMONADE could be on every streaming platform available and it still would've outsold ANTi so that argument is useless. I thought the 9 week #1 Work, the "biggest" song of 2016, or the other top 10s LEMONADE lacks would've placed Rihanna above Beyoncé but that isn't the case huh.
