I was just wondering how many sales has Rihanna's album sold worldwide? I know it's sold around 1.5 million copies in the US and UK each. On one source I have 5.7 million but on a website it says 8 million. Does anyone know how much it's sold? Thanks

Wow, i had no idea it sold that much. I was guessing about 4 million
That is impressive really. They sell Rihanna isn't an album seller but her albums may not sell like Adele but they sell well enough. I mean she can sell an album better than Katy Perry.

SHe is very overlooked as an album seller isnt she!

Rated R was around 3mill wasnt it....and fans were split on how macabre it was wrerent they...i wonder how Talk The Talk will do

I don't think Talk That Talk will be very good because she's only releasing an album for the sake of it, no time is being spent on it.

I don't understand when people say oh it's not going to be good because she hasn't spent time on it. She didn't even contribute to any of Loud, look at who written the songs and produced them, not her! There's probably hundreds of songs that the producers and writers have made that are great and takes Rihanna a total of a few weeks to just pick 12 and record her vocals so I don't know what peoples problems are?!

What i dont understand is that Loud was released in 11 months after Rated R...no criticism. Loud blows up everywhere and Talk That Talk is set a release (not a re-release thank the lord!) with 100% new material and a new era. 12 months after Loud and people start complaining!

I think she will sustain the sales with WInter promo and a second single possibly not too far away and X Factor shows etc. She will have Christmas sales down! and hopefully am certain this will sustain across the next year too

Yeah, "time" isn't an issue for Rihanna albums really.

Her producers and song-writers aren't out promoting the music. Rihanna does all that. So they have, infact, had quite a lot of time to make some good songs. Not to mention, Stargate aside, Rihanna works with a wide range of different people. So they're only having to make 1-3 songs for her, in an entire year.

I think there's no reason why the album couldn't be good again this time.

I can't believe how much the album has sold though! Especially in the UK. Rihanna isn't even an album-seller either. She's an (urban) pop artist. They're not supposed to be able to sell many albums.
