Lemon Drops

It sold really well in the US though. The only female albums released in the last couple of years that outsold it were Anti (by only 100k), 25 and Lemonade.

Do you have the pure sales figures for her albums and singles?

These stats are quite inflated in the OP.

"success" What? A front loaded success is still a success. Especially when it's not front-loaded at all. Staying at #1 for 6 weeks is for sure a success, as is staying at #1 for 2 weeks.

How is this relevant? They're doing better than 5H outside the US. No girl group is slaying on a massive global level but LM are the closest consistently. Little Mix have also had good success in New Zealand, Australia, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Slovakia, Austria, Portugal, Norway, Netherlands, Philippines, Ireland, Hungary, Czech Republic and Belgium recently. While Fifth Harmony have only cracked Hungary, Belgium, New Zealand, Philippines, Portugal and Scotland this era.

But that wasn't what we were discussing. Not saying 5H haven't had success, but calling them biggest girl group in the world is a massive reach.

Little Mix did 38k pure sales extra outside of the UK. Fifth Harmony did 27k SPS extra outside the US. 38k PURE > 27k SPS What is your point?

Not good numbers.

That was heavily influenced due to it being cheaper to buy each song separately.

They were saying with SPS.

Well duh. She shares it with another song.
