According to Nielsen SoundScan, Rihanna has sold more than 47 million tracks at the end of 2011, putting her ahead of Britney, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and any other artist in the world. Oh... and the list doesn’t even include the tracks Rihanna is featured in, which means that if they would include all the collabs, the amount of sold singles would be even bigger!
Black Eyed Peas can be found at the number two spot. They still hold the honor of having the biggest selling digital single to date with ‘I Gotta Feeling’.
Check the full list below.

How many of those songs did Rihanna write or make any actual contribution towards other than a sad attempt at adding her voice to said songs? I don't like or condone her as an artist.
