Rihanna has more US Billboard #1s than Michael Jackson

[Pharozonk]

Don't take this negative cos prolly you're just not into music but if you haven't heard of Rihanna then you don't keep yourself updated to which songs are hot from time to time. Or maybe Rihanna isn't just popular in your place.

I know who Rihanna is. I just wish I didn't.

Is Units sold even useful in light of rampant piracy? Who here has all their music legally? Or doesnt just stream it on Pandora, SoundCloud, Spotify, etc?

Congrats to RiRi...sure the US aint the world but our biggest export is culture ie Movies, TV, Music, Entertainment in general.

I actually still buy CDs. Or vinyl. And then I put them onto my computer, and then onto my MP3 player. I have to have a physical copy of an album.
I don't stream music at all.

She should really collaborate with more women and less Eminem.

LOl. But anyway, you know what? I always wondered why Beyonce seems to be more popular than Rihanna however Rihanna album and singles sell better than Beyonce.

For Rihanna, she has a wider variety of songs and has great collaborations with other artists. I think Rihanna also has more appeal to the masses than Beyonce.

How about nyou? Why do you think Rihanna is doing better than Beyonce in terms of single/album sales?

I...I don't know.
I don't really listen to either artist.
And I don't follow the billboard charts.

Should I?
I feel like it would ruin music for me.

If i only had to choose 3 songs that you should check, prolly Umbreela, Diamonds and Love The Way You Lie but I think you've heard those three already.

Why? She has some really good songs.

For starters, she doesn't even write her own music so she loses any artistic credibility there.

The music she releases is just repetitive electronic beats with juvenile lyrics (but not in a fun way) and an overreliance on nonsense syllables, like "na na na".

I think we should not like see a musician as a less valuable person than a musician who writes his/her own songs.

I know that it matters but I myself also write songs and I wouldn't say to a fellow musician that I'm a mor valuable musician cos I write my songs and eh/she doesn.t

It's a slap in the face to struggling musicians who work their asses off day after day and can't get a record deal, but someone who isn't even writing her own music can make millions off what some dudes crank out over a weekend.

A more valuable person? I don't think anyone mentioned value as a person. No, it doesn't make her less valuable as a person.
But a less valuable artist? Now, THAT could be easily argued.

I think we should just stick to some people like the sound of certain artists music, and other don't.
It's really as simple as that.
No need to bash any artist.
Regardless of what anyone thinks of her music, we can admit that she is a strong woman who works very, very hard at what she does.
And she deserves respect for that alone.
