Rihanna’s official first week numbers are in for ‘ANTi’...
In her opening week, Rihanna's new album 'ANTi' pushed 125K in actual digital sales, even after the million free downloads from Samsung.
An additional 47K comes from streaming, bumping her opening figure to a total of 172K. She also dethrones Adele’s '25' (93K), according to Hits Daily Double. Indeed, Rihanna’s new album is officially #1 after debuting at #27 last week on the Billboard 200. The physical version of the album lands in stores today. Congrats on that #1 album, Riri! Despite all the controversy behind that Platinum certification, a victory is a victory at the end of the day.
