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.
