Rihanna

What happened to the mega star Rihanna? It wasn’t to long ago that the Barbadian singer ruled the airwaves. But her career has taken a downturn.

Nielsen reported that her new album sold fewer than 1,000 copies in the U.S. – and reviews of her latest Album are lackluster. The New York Times noted “She made a record that only she wants to hear”.

To be fair, the album did reach No. 1 on iTunes’s internal charts, and it’s predicted that “Anti” could sell up to 130,000 copies in its first full week of sales.

Update: Rihanna’s Anti has now jumped to #1 on the Billboard 200. The album debuted last week at number 27, which is very low for RiRi. Anti had less than a day to accrue streams and sales for its first “week,” but now that afull week has gone by, her sales are looking better, but not great.
