I know they already did go solo but If they were to go solo again properly and never get back together. I think they would both do well but maybe Jon just a little better because he is the main focus and people who arent die hard fans normally think jovi as jon anyway vote!

I think Jon would have it easier, if only because he's more "famous".

Of course I think Richie is very talented, but I think it would be tougher for him.

Does anyone know which of their solo albums sold better?

Aloha !

Jon because he's got a famous voice, though I think the critics will credit Richie's work way more.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Jon will probably have the better career, cause what's been said above.

Well my favourite Jovi-member is Richie but as for singing I like Jon's voice better ...
Apart from that I also think that his solo carreer will be more succesfuller .. and was in the past I think

As talented as both are, I think Jon would have the more successful solo career. He's sings, he acts, he buys football teams

What do you mean with "better"? The more commercial succesfull Jon since he is the way better business man.

Keeper, Jon's sold better. Probably for the reason above and because for most (non fan) people JBJ = BJ = JBJ. They don't see a difference. And nobody knows who Richie Sambora is. The record company left him quite alone and didn't support him.

Thank you! That's what I thought but didn't really know
