Which Artist is more iconic, Rihanna or Motley Crue?

For every album they’ve sold, Rihanna has sold four. Granted, album sales are not everything. But when you look at Rihanna’s catalogue from Pon de Replay until Anti, she’s pop royalty. Even people who hate Rihanna know her music. I thought Motley Crue was a clothing brand or a breed of dog.
